I've fallen in love with Saint Paul de Vence

Advantages: Beautiful place
Disadvantages: expensive

...My dad?s friend and his wife work in the South of France and they live in Saint Paul de Vence. I?ve been fortunate enough to visit them with my parents 4 times in the last couple of years. The first time we went to the village, we were staying in a hotel in Nice and only went to St Paul for the afternoon/evening. The following three times, I we stayed in their house in the village for a few days. Having now visited on more than one occasion, I think I have a good feel for this lovely little place. Every year this village sees millions of tourists pass through it?s cobbled streets every year and as it?s such a beautiful place I can see why? Where is it? Saint Paul de Vence is a small walled village located in Provence, in Southern France. We fly to Nice airport (with easyjet) and our friend picks us from there. A taxi from...

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat Highlighter

Advantages: does the job
Disadvantages: expensive

...Yves Saint Laurent's Touche Eclat has become known as the best highlighter money can buy, and that's not without reason. Yes, the brand name and packaging are appealing, but it's the miracle inside the shiny gold tube that you're paying for. And believe, me it's worth the money. Before Touche Eclat, Yves Saint Laurent was not particularly well-known for its make-up line. Whilst many designer cosmetics are more style than substance, this is not true for Touche Eclat, which is more than a side-project for a major fashion house. This product works as both a concealer, covering dark under-eye circles and as a highlighter, to accent areas such as cheekbones. The reason why it works so well is that it contains light reflecting particles with give your skin a natural, radiant glow, whereas other concealers and cover-ups effectively just...

Effortless Parisian Relaxation

Advantages: Hotel Cat; Location; Comfort; Friendliness
Disadvantages: No view

...Despite living in France for a year, and visiting on numerous occasions I'd never actually been to Paris before. So for a first visit I really wanted the hotel to live up to the promise of the city - and the Hotel Saint Paul Rive Gauche certainly did that. Right from the welcome at reception we knew things would be relaxed here. The hotel cat, Sputnik, lounging on the reception desk summed up the feel. If anything my only gripe came at this point, and it was nothing to do with the cat (who was fantastic, though I do recognise not everyone would be so happy to see a moggy at reception), but rather that the receptionist spoke to us in English when I was speaking in French. Really a very minor complaint when her English was so good, and it's a common trait in the big French cities and not really worth getting worked up about. Staying...

Top class hotel in South Devon

Advantages: great rooms, nice staff, fantastic food, lovely gardens
Disadvantages: can be expensive and surrounding roads v.narrow

...OVERVIEW: I recently returned from a week long trip to Cornwall. To breakdown the amount of continuous driving that I would have to do we decided to stop overnight in Devon on the way back. The Buckland Tout Saints Hotel is situated in Goveton in the heart of the south Devon countryside, two miles from Kingsbridge. The hotel itself is a sixteenth century manor house, containing sixteen bedrooms. The original building is over 300 years old, but the hotel and rooms have been modernised several times and the décor is sensational. It is set in 4.5 acres of grounds and is said to be one of the top 200 hotels in Britain. We booked the hotel through lastminute.com and believed it to be a three star hotel, we were therefore very surprised upon arrival to have the main doors opened for us and our cases sent straight up to our room. The hotel is...

Review of Buckland Tout Saints Hotel, Kingsbridge

The Saints Go Marching On

Advantages: Original fusion of Cuban, Brazillian and rock idioms
Disadvantages: May not appeal to those used to a more commercial sound

...In this his most spiritual album, the Saints that Paul Simon evokes are, like the music itself on this innovative album, an eclectic blend of Old World Catholic and New World Animist. Cuban influences on Spirit Voices merge with the Brazillian sounds of The Coast and Proof in a heady blend of Latin inspired fusion that is as original as it is catchy. While retaining his own unmistakeable sound throughout, Simon continues his interest in world music (birthed on Graceland) by pushing the boat out further into uncharted waters. Recorded in Rio and New York City, Simon draws together a quality international team to create a work of art of considerable power. I found myself being carried along on a meandering river (a motif that appears throughout the album's 10 songs) through an album that contains hidden depths and surprising turns. As...

Paul Mitchell, an overview

Advantages: Environmental friendly, good values, products not tested on animals
Disadvantages: Results not satisfactory, not a good outcome

...At one of my trips at the saloon, I was recommended some products from Paul Mitchell for my daughter, who has a frizzy and curly hair which seems to have gone in a very bad shape over the last year. I have to admit that up until this point I have never heard of this brand, so I have decided to give it a try and see if it will help getting my little daughter?s hair back in shape. Since I normally do not buy products I don?t know I have looked up on the internet to see what information I could find about Paul Mitchell products, even if it was a bit late by this point. Who is Paul Mitchell? Paul Mitchell was a hairdresser who, together with John Paul DeJoria, decided in 1980 to create a brand designed especially for hair care professionals. The company wasn't a big success in the beginning and they struggled not to...

A little devil but a saintly cheese.

Advantages: Delicious and remarkably versatile
Disadvantages: Naughty but nice

... ST AGUR BLUE CHEESE St Agur is one of my favourite cheeses; it is SO good, if rather naughty!!!! If you like a soft blue cheese, like Gorgonzola I'm sure that you will love this cheese. St Agur is a blue cheese that is made from pasteurized cow's milk which comes from the village of Monts du Velay, in Auvergne region of central France. (Incidentally there is NO village called St Agur, in France - or anywhere else, and nor is there a saint called Agur) This is a relatively modern cheese that was only developed in 1988 by a French cheese company (Bongrain). It is classed as a 'double cream cheese' as it is made from pasteurised cow's milk that is enriched with cream, and contains 60% .After production the cheese is aged for 60 days in cellars, during this storage the cheese becomes stronger and spicier. Saint Agur is...

Review of Saint Agur Cheese

I went to school with a Paul Smith

Advantages: Great smell,
Disadvantages: Normally far better value elsewhere

...**Introduction** This is my first fragrance review for a while and I have chosen to review a very popular fragrance, Paul Smith for Men. I had used a tester of this fragrance many times whilst I was in Boots and Debenhams but had never actually bought one due to the price compared to other fragrances which I prefered and I have bought a wide range of fragrances over the years. Here is my review of Paul Smith's popular fragrance for Men. This is the first Paul Smith fragrance I have used. **The Bottle** I feel that The bottle is a more important feature than you might think, Nobody wants a fragrance that has a weird gastly looking bottle. I like the design of the bottle it's like the Calvin Klein Eternity fragrance. The difference is that the Paul Smith fragrance is a nice green colour whereas the Calvin Klein Eternity is a kind...
