Girls stuff...

hi guys,
omg havent posted for yonks.
anyway i thought i should keep the theme going
i am going to review a book called girls stuff.
the one isabel review is excellent but i feel girls stuff does prepare you a little better however it is alot more confronting as it talks deeply about puberty and has a chapter on sex.
my mum said to me when she gave it to me 'read only as you need'
so dont go into chapters you dont feel comfortable reading just yet!


it has chapters on jobs, money, puberty, self image, internet, maturing, drugs (pros and cons) and other great things.
it doesnt tell you what you should or shouldnt do it informs you


click here for girls stuff website: http://www.penguin.com.au/girlstuff/


10/10 please give it a go! 
p.s it has awsome little cartoons

The Big Book of Girl Stuff

Hi Bel here as Bella is obviously too lazy to write...
Anyway today I would like to tell you about this great book that I have called The Big Book of Girl Stuff! It is sooooooooo good. It has absolutely everything a girl needs to know and is aimed for girls aged around 8-15. With information about health, boys, sleepovers, friendship, fashion, beauty, art and much, much more, this really is a must-have for all girls! It has tips, ideas, true facts, funny pictures and interesting statistics. It will last you hours, not to mention the amount of times you will re-read it! Here are some examples of chapters in this fabulous book: Healthy Body, Health You!, Babysitting, Girl Power and Family Matters. (It has plenty more too). This book is a really great buy and you can get it at a price of around $24.99AUD. Here are some pics I would like to share with you...

Fashion and Fragrance

Hey hey, Bel here

The book Bella reviewed (My Wonderful World of Fashion) looks really good, and is something I am putting on my Christmas list (don't miss our Christmas themed entries towards the end of Nov and start of Dec). Bella also wrote an entry about a cool fashion website (Polyvore) which I have made an account on (Matrehadoll) and created a set (see below).


Also, about Demeter Fragrance...

I am loving the sound of pink lemonade and cucumber, plus a few others like apple blossom. (YUM!) They sound so refreshing! Snow also sounds very interesting. So now i'm going to tell you how to find your personal scent! (shame you can't try samples). Here's how: (it is so simple)



  1. First of all, think about the smells in your life that you enjoy. They could be smells of fruit, flowers, or other things in nature (etc).

  2. Keep these in mind when shopping for perfume.

  3. When you are there, limit your choices to 3-4 favourites. If you can sample it and choose the one that you feel refreshed and calmed the most. If this is not possible (e.g. you are shopping online) read the descriptions and try to imagine yourself smelling like that thing. Which is the most appealing? Go for that one!

Good luck!


Post soon

Demeter Fragrance

Have you noticed that many perfumes smell somewhat the same? This is because they have a strong alcohol base which often overpowers the actual scent. If you would like a scent that is nothing like everyone else's, than go to www.demeterfragrance.com. It specialises in very specific scents - for example snow (which was voted America's best fragrance in 2000), blueberry, bubblegum and rassperry jam (and hundreds of others). Some of the other more unusual scents are Play-doh, fresh hay, prune and Reese's peanut butter cups. The prices are very reasonable, and numerous reviewers have commented about how the smell is pretty much exactly the same as the real thing. Its so fun just to scroll through all their interesting flavours and read the intriguing descriptions. So log on to this fabulous site and have a look at the perfumes they have on offer. (I am hoping for one for Christmas!)
Would you rather smell like honeysuckle, pink lemonade or brownies? The choice is yours at Demeter Fragrance!
