Plane travel beauty and fashion essentials
Friday, July 2nd, 2010
Ok, so we’ve already given you inspiration on everything you’ll need for your beach holiday, but you’ve got to get there first! Waiting around in the airport for your flight can be a little boring, as can the flight itself, especially if it’s a long one and so The Diva has put together a travel survival kit for all you divas out there from the Viva La Diva website.
One of the most important things when travelling abroad is to make sure you have a good quality and practical bag but a diva will also still want to look stylish. A large tote bag is probably your best choice of bag here but remember, it needs to be no larger than 56cm x 45cm x 25cm. This Fiorelli Tutti Frutti Flight Bag is the perfect size and comes in some sizzling shades, but it also has a useful front zip pocket for your passport and tickets and the lockable zips are safe and practical.
You can never guarantee the weather and while it might be pouring it down in England you might be heading somewhere hot, so when it comes to choosing your footwear to travel in it can be quite a conundrum and you also want to make sure you wear comfortable shoes. So why not take a pair of folding pumps to stick in your bag? These Redfoot folding pump shoes are so practical while being gorgeous at the same time, simply fold them up and keep them in your bag. They come in so many colours, some plain and others with embellishments, these silver folding pumps are probably the most versatile.
Some of us just love to get our heads down on plane but it can sometimes get a little chilly so why not take a cute and comfortable pashmina with you? It’s so versatile, wear it as a scarf or wrap before you jet off to keep warm, snuggle into it on the plane or use it to accessorise while on holiday, there are so many uses for a pashmina and they come in so many colours too.
If you’re heading somewhere hot then you’ll certainly need a pair of sunglasses for when you land. But sunglasses are also great if you’ve got an early start and bags under your eyes, and you can also use them if you want to catch a few hours of sleep on the plane. We have a brilliant choice of oversize sunglasses on our website in so many styles and colours. These white sunglasses are very glam and very versatile.
Or you could simply buy a face mask and you’ll get plenty of sleep!
Make sure you stay fresh on long plane journeys and take some essential beauty products with you, but remember each item needs to be under 100ml to take on the plane. Some moisturiser will keep your skin hydrated like this Oil Olay Rehydrating Lotion and some perfume will keep you smelling fresh. We even have the Aroma Therapeutics Flight Box Kit, designed for use on a flight to keep you relaxed and care for your skin.
You can even make your passport look stylish with these Ciccia Leather Passport Holders in black and pink.
The Year of the Tiger…cat inspired boots and bags
Tuesday, May 18th, 2010
The Diva was thrilled to find out that 2010 is the Year of the Tiger, what could be more fabulous than a year centred around one of the most beautiful creatures on the planet?!
The Tiger is brave and couragous, and people born in the Year of the Tiger are natural leaders, charasmatic, have individual style, are impulsive spenders and love all things sparkling…that certainly sounds like a rather fabulous diva!
Bring out your feline self with these cat inspired boots and handbags at Viva La Diva. We simply adore Ciccia bags and purses that have really sweet cat designs, while Irregular Choice boots and bags like the ever popular Irregular Choice Whimsical Miaow Boots have a more funky twist.
Ciccia bags – the purrfect gift for feline loving friends!
