Now it's princesses...

Advantages: Good craft ideas
Disadvantages: none

...My Princes Craft Book On a recent wander round Tesco, we picked up this book for £3.79, as opposed to the R.R.P of £7.99. Of course, the cover of the book has been designed to make it as appealing as possible for girls (I hope I'm not been too non pc) who love pink, and princesses, since it is the obligatory pink colour, and shows a tantalizing display of tiaras, castles and princesses. **What do I get with the book?** Open the book and there are 2 full pages of gold stickers- hearts, banners, circles, arched windows and stars. These can be used to decorate the things which your little lady has made, or used to stick on cards envelopes and bits of paper, as so often happens in our house. At the back of the book there are 18 card templates, so that even people with limited artistic inclination can help their child make...

Review of My Princess Craft Book

a rather odd story but a rather good book!

Advantages: baby friendly
Disadvantages: odd story!

...heavy so falling on the floor. It has 3 pages to turn and on each page is a picture of a mouse dressed in some outfit or other and on the oposite page is a flower made from different material. The flower Baby B loves to stroke and scratch at. Every time we turn a page she looks excitedly to where the flower will be and then starts grabbing at it! The story is rather odd... it reads: "My little princess soft and sweet, my little princess pretty in pink, my little princess royal little darilng" That's it. So hardly a story as you can see! So I would say this book could be improved by actually having a story! The taggie book comes with tags that looks like labels all the way round the outside. These are different textures and colours and Baby B likes to play with these and study them intently! I think this is a great book if...

Review of Taggies Princess Book

Princess with Princess

Advantages: Beautiful fragrance and lovely designed bottle. also not too expensive
Disadvantages: Fragrance fades in time as with most perfumes

...I received a bottle of vera wang perfume for my last birthday. I had never tried the perfume before and was very pleasantly surprised at how gorgeous the smell was. It became my new bag buddy as I took it everywhere I went. I received many compliments on my new fragrance. I love vera wang because it is the type of perfume that you can mist on for a days work or apply a little more for a night out. It isn't too expensive either which is a bonus and alot of the time with vera wang perfumes you get little gifts. For example I received a miniature gift set containing a perfume, shower gel and moisturiser. I wasnt over impressed by the need to apply more after only a few hours, but hey, that's life. The only downfall for me is that I've just run out :0( So bye bye, im off to selfridges to get me some Princess...

Review of Vera Wang Princess Perfume

The Perfume of a Princess!

Advantages: Smells Very Distinctive, Long Lasting, Beautiful Bottle, Very Feminine
Disadvantages: May be too sweet and floral for some

...different perfumes and had drawn up a list of ones I fancied getting, one of the fragrances on the list was Vera Wang Princess. Vera Wang is a successful designer born in New York who originally wanted to become an actress; however she gave up this dream when she realised that it was unlikely an Asian woman would become successful in this field in the early 1970?s.

She has designed dresses for a number of celebrities including Alicia Silverstone, Sharon Stone, Tyra Banks, Jennifer Garner and Mariah Carey among many others.

Review of Vera Wang Princess Perfume

Perfect Princess

Advantages: Wear it anywhere,anytime.
Disadvantages: None.

...Princess by Vera Wang. Princess has been beautifully crafted and designed by Vera Wang. She already has a collection of three other designer perfumes for women, and one for men. But this one is completely different. -The aesthetics- The prefume is presented in a heavy, glass, heart shaped bottle. The name is delicately wriiten in black italic writing across the front. The colour of the actual perfume is a light, airy lilac. On the top of the bottle, is the cap, a lovely gold detailed crown with mini, sparkling amethyst gems. Which insides, holds a secret ring. -The scent- Its exotic, fruity and floral. One spray, and its left lingering sweetly in the air. its definetly a 'girly' perfume. Its romantic and sexy, to be worn casually or formally. The dramatic twist of vanilla and pink guava, makes is smell divine and completely...

Review of Vera Wang Princess Perfume

Fun princess book

Advantages: funny colourful princess book
Disadvantages: not really a boys book

...Princess are not Quitters is a fun and enjoyable kids book. The story is exicting and full of energy that my children really enjoyed (espically with some funny voices and out of breathe acting) This partically captured my 4 year old daughter who is into all things princess like. The pictures are bright and full of detail with lots going on. In the background are funny details written on posters and sign etc which will amuse older reads and adults. My daughter has spent ages pouring over the pictures looking at all the details. The story flows in a nice way which contributes to the pace of the story . The story is of 3 princesses who are bored with royal life and so decide to become maids. The book follows the princesses on a typical maids day at the palace where they soon discover how much hard work they have to do,but as the book...

Review of Princesses are not quitters, Childrens Book - Sue Hellard, Kate Lum

For a princess...

Advantages: Lots of ideas
Disadvantages: None for princess fans

...A lovely book for anyone who loves princesses and wants to make princess things. Yes, I do know someone who fits into this category quite nicely! We already have some of the other usborne craft books, and having found them useful and very enjoyable, this was a must. After the index, with a list of the makes, the book gets straight onto the descriptions of how to make the items, without any long preamble as to how the book should be used. I like this because we want to make the things, not be told how to use what is essentially a very simple book. There are 17 things to make; I would say the book is definitely more "make" than "do"- there are no ideas for example, of princess dance moves. The things to be made are: dancing Princesses, headdress, slipper decorations, sash, zigzag castle card, crown, fan, tiara, princess in...

The Princess and the Perfume

Advantages: Light and delicate scent, sexy
Disadvantages: Slightly expensive

...If you've already read my Vera Wang Princess Satiny Body Lotion review, you will know I recieved this perfume along with the gift set from my boyfriend for my Birthday last November. And as promised, I said I would write a review about the Vera Wang Princess perfume, so here I am now. Vera Wang, if you haven't heard of her, is a lady from New York. At frist she was an editor for Vogue magazine,then going on to do other things. She started designing dresses for celebrities and now owns her own Wedding Dress collection. She has her own Vera Wang accessorie collection and more importantly her own fragrance collection, including more scents than just the Princess collection. As the story goes, Vera Wang Princess collection is a new spirit in fragrance, inspired by a modern-day princess. Confident, indipendent, with a total zest...

Review of Vera Wang Princess Perfume

The Princess Bride?

Advantages: Eye Opening
Disadvantages: Shocking

...Princess, by Jean Sasson, is the biographical and often disturbing account of one woman's life in a relatively modern Saudi Arabia; which still believes its women are inferior to its menfolk. The author, Jean Sasson, spent over ten years living and working in Riyadh and was incensed at the inequality of women within the country, and the power that men hold, and it was during this time that she met Princess Sultana. The Princess, the youngest in a family of eleven surviving children, including only one boy, begged Sasson to write her biography, based on her diaries even from childhood. Sasson was reluctant to write this biography at first; and it was not until after the Kuwait invasion in 1990 and Sasson's visit back to SA the following year, that she felt moved enough to bringing this story to the forefront of westerner's minds...
