Speedy review: Killer Queen by Katy Perry...

A playful, sophisticated, powerful, edgy and delicious fragrance, Killer Queen reflects the rebellious spirit of Katy...

"Killer Queen has been in my vocabulary since I was 15, because of the song ‘Killer Queen’ by Queen. Freddie Mercury painted the lyrics of this woman who I wanted to be. She seemed very powerful, and she captivated a room when she walked in. I named my company Killer Queen after those lyrics. I feel like, after all this time, it was appropriate to use that name in association with something I did. I feel like I’m falling, finally, into that woman Freddie painted" - Katy perry

I have a weakness for blues and purples, plus China Glaze's glitter polishes aren't as stubborn to remove as other brands, so most of this year's options are calling to me.

 

Between this and OPI's Christmas range, my wallet will be begging for mercy...

 

 

 

Oh - I've not finished yet. China glaze does the best polish sets, and 2013 is no exception

Music review - THIS IS IT: The Very Best of Dannii Minogue [CD and Itunes download]...

The Australian arm of Warner Music released THIS IS IT, a collection of singles spanning the past 23 years from Dannii's five studio albums on Friday 23rd August 2013.

☆☆☆☆/☆☆☆☆☆

They've arranged this release to cash in on her new, high profile job "to celebrate her Australian debut on The X Factor", and the CD edition contains a 24 page booklet, containing a ton of photos of Dannii over a twenty three year period, which the THIS IS IT producers tell us are previously unseen - although most of them are in the booklets for the deluxe editions of her albums...

So lets not hang around, and get stuck into Dannii's five eras, on offer here...
