Blaze On Fairy Lights *

A few weeks ago, I received a set of Radiant Hearts White LED fairy lights from Blaze On
It was good timing as I had only moved into my university apartment recently and felt my room was missing that extra something to make it look more homely.

From when I opened the package, I could tell that Blaze On's top priorities was customer service as the packaging alone was so intrigently detailed . The lights came wrapped in handcrafted orange tissue paper accompanied with a Daisy flower scented candle , which I am saving as it's too pretty to burn . Once I unwrapped the tissue paper, my beautiful lights were revealed through the clear-view window which made me even more excited to try them out.

I got the warm white version to give my room a soft ambience which after a long, hard day at university is definitely needed. As I have to pay my own bill these lights are bright enough to use when I do not want to use the main lights especially when I catch-up on my U.S TV shows (American Horror Story).Originally I hung them on the pole fixture in my room but realised it would be better suited on my bed head as that is the main focal point of my room plus I could make full use of the light strings.

Although the price of these luxury Radiant Heart lights are £27.50 which is higher in comparison to other fairy lights on the market,  I would say, it is worth the investment as the quality is really amazing,  they have a lifespan of approximately 10 years ( Up to 100,000 hours) and they're energy efficient. According to Blaze On , the LED bulbs use 90% less energy which makes them very economical. One thing I found was that the lights never get hot despite if they have been on all night (Yes...one night I fell asleep without plugging them out..blame university) which is important as safety is key. Note: All Blaze on fairy lights come with a 1 year electronic guarantee and UK technical support.

By purchasing these lights , not only are you are able to instantly update your home/room decor but you are also helping support local communities in Thailand through Blaze On's ethical commitment of utilising fair trade and ethically sourced products, which is great.

Blaze on, offer a wide variety of  lights to suit all homes and even sell incense sets & candles too.  UK delivery is from as little as £1.95 but if you spend over £40, it is free.  Currently they have £2 off on all orders over £10 using discount voucher code FAIRY.

As Christmas is coming up soon, why not decorate your home or even provide someone with the gift of light. Don't forget to check out the Blaze On website and  Blaze On Facebook page for more pictures and inspiration of how to style fairy lights!

 Peace, Love & Besos

Samsung S3 - Fisheye Lens

Yesterday , me and my sister decided last minute that we will take a trip to London, as we had not visited Walthamstow market & Oxford street in a long while. Last week I received my Samsung S3 Fish eye lens from Three Mobile , so I was excited to take it with me on this unplanned trip to test out.




A fisheye lens is a wide angle lens that allows you to produce strong distortion on images to create an ultra wide panoramic view. It is perfect if you want to take action images or close up focused images of items while still being able to retain a full picture.




The conversion lens for the Samsung S3, comes with a dark grey translucent back cover which easily snaps onto your phone handset so it will not fall off, it fits perfectly around the camera so you can still make use of the flash which is perfect for those night time shots. Once the case is securely on the phone,  the lens can be screwed onto the back cover and presto you can snap away until your heart is content!

To protect the lens, the pack comes complete with 2 clip on lens covers,  to keep the lens free from dirt or dust when not in use.

 


The fish eye lens retails for approximately £24.99 , which although seems pricey, it is definately worth the price as the effect and quality are second to none; also it is easily portable and is a great acessory for your mobile. Personally, I have always wanted a fish eye lens to capture those scenic moments on the move, so I will be taking it on my winter sun Christmas getaway to Gambia, Africa.

Peace, Love & Besos
