10 Fave Things: Diva Desle

Yay! I'm having the dark haired beauty Desle from Diva Desle on the blog! Actress, singer, puppeteer and blogger. Yes, she's a multi - talented, down to earth lady with a bubbly personality and a very soft/big heart. And today she's sharing her 10 Fave Things. 

These are my personal favorite Diva Desle blog-posts.

Now let's learn more about this extraordinary lady, here's her 10 Fave Things.

1. I adore all shades of pink. In fact I'm crazy about it. Call me obsessed. I have pink bags, clothes, pillows, clock, ghd, bucket, toothbrush etc. If I could own a pink Mercedes Benz my life would be complete.
2. I love road tripping. Thanks to my jobs (yes I have more than one) I get to travel in South Africa 5 months out of the year. My favourite places to visit are arty or small obscure towns that people wouldn't normally go to. There is so much history and beauty in those towns.
3. I love performing. I have been doing it since the age of 4. Both my grandparents were performers and used to sing and act on stage. I have inherited their performing genes! I am most happy when I'm singing and acting on stage.
4. Coffee and chocolates are my addictions. One day does not go by when I don't have both. I just love the smell of freshly brewed coffee in the mornings. Chocolate really gets me through the day and puts me in a good mood.
5. I enjoy spending time with my family. Special moments are cooking with my mom, laying on the couch watching movies with my sister or listening to old LP's rock music with my dad. I also enjoy laughing and being crazy with my friends.
6. I love Cape Town! The city means so much to me. I love the people, the scenery and the good vibes. I enjoy going out an exploring the city and meeting new people. Cape Town is where my heart will always be no matter where in the world I am.

7. When I am alone I am always reading a juicy novel. I love getting lost in books. I visit my local library all the time just browsing through all the novels.
8. I adore dogs and hate cats. My favourites are Alsatians and Terriers. They are the best companions ever!!
9. I have an earring and dress fetish. I collect dresses and earrings. I just love the beauty of a well fitted dress and beautiful designed earrings.
10. My favourite place to be on earth is the beach. I love the sea with all my heart. It's beautiful, calming and scary all at the same time. I could sit on the beach and just stare at the waves forever! I enjoy swimming in the sea and smelling the fresh sea breeze.

Thank you pretty lady - I adored this post. :) I also love juicy novels, chocolate and beautiful flowing summer dresses! xoxo

Bath-time Cocktails

I would like to share with you my fave bath-time products, although I'm sure that most of you ladies are familiar with these already. ;) I've been using these fabulous U.K. products for some time now and they truly transfer me to happy-land. I must confess that I use my shower gels as bubble baths too especially when they smell this good. And we all know that nothing beats an indulgent, luxury bath after a long day accompanied with a glass of ahum bubbly...  What's your fave can't-go-without bath-time products?

Dirty Works Body Butter in Coconut Caress
This is a sumptuous body butter, lightly fragrance with exotic Coconut. It's so decadent and melts into my skin leaving it silky and soft. This pot really last a long time and I just love the smell of Pina Colada! I will surely buy this amazing cream again, it's the perfect cocktail for my olive skin. This great product is available at Clicks.

Imperial Leather Shower Cream in Japanese Spa 
I'm besotted with this Japanese Spa shower cream infused with a traditional Eastern blend of green tea, rice milk and jasmine to purify the skin leaving it beautifully soft. The jasmine have this blissful relaxing and soothing effect, transforming my daily cleansing into an exquisite ritual. This product is 100 % soap free and available at most grocery stores. I got this at Shoprite.

Lush Shower Gel  in Happy Hippy
I adore this shower gel, it's really like squeezing yourself a fresh grapefruit breakfast from a bottle. It's infused with bergamot oil and yummy fresh pink grapefruit juice. This product is from their Cosmetics To Go days and it was so missed that they had to bring it back. Well I love it and will definitely go back for more.You can use this zesty gel on your hair and body, perfect for waking you up in the morning! I always feel energised and carefree, like a Happy Hippy whenever I use it. ;) I got mine from Lush in the Waterfront, Cape Town.
