Oriental Orchid 4-screen hand printed wall paper from Timorous Beasties

First to recommend

Description

Beautiful, dramatic, unique wallpaper but look closer. Beneath the bright pink orchid print is something unexpected. Timorous Beasties have intertwined the bold flower print with subtle images from a Japanese Manga cartoon depicting well, see for yourself.

Cabaret

2 people recommended this item

Description

Wilkommen! This is the remarkable story about life in 1931 Berlin from the perspective of a group of bonne vivants at the Kit Kat Club nightclub. At the centre of the tale is the American Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli), her lover Brian (Michael York) and the nightclub's Master of Ceremonies played by the scene-stealing Joel Grey.

As the economic, social and political situation in Germany deteriorates, the gang at the Kit Kat Club try to distract their patrons and themselves from what is happening. Cabaret won 8 Academy Awards in 1972. The songs are absolute classics and performed with the perfect amount of emotion, glee and sensuality, the costumes are dramatic and its easy to forget that this was made in the early 70s.

A love song to the decadent side to Berlin, it's a truly remarkable film.

Secretary

2 people recommended this item

Description

An unconventional love story to be sure. But maybe not so unconventional, how well do you know the people in the cubicles next to yours???

The wonderful Maggie Gyllenhaal is Lee Holloway, a young woman just released from a mental hospital who finds a job with imperious, perfectionist lawyer Edward (James Spader), who has his own secrets. As the two work together, a complex relationship begins to evolve...

Stylish, very sexy, darkly funny, intelligent and compelling, Secretary isn't for everyone, but such fun for those who have wicked or only slightly wicked minds.

Lush - Floating Island Bath Melt

First to recommend

Description

I used to work for Lush and most of the products I loved have been discontinued (they're constantly doing that - why? why?) But they've smartened up and come up with Retro Lush - many of their old and discontinued products can be found here. It may be only for a limited time, but you can buy things like the Floating Island Bath Melt!

Despite knowing that these things are meant to smell and look delicious, I was always tempted by the citrusy-spicy-sweet smell of the Floating Islands and the fact that it looks like a little vanilla cake! It's made with almond oil, lemon oil and sandalwood oil, so hence the yummy smell, but it's also designed to be incredibly moisturizing and softening on your skin. Drop on of these bad boys in your warm bath and watch it softly fizz and melt, soaking you in lusciously smooth, creamy goodness. (via lush.com)

Lush - Aqua Mirablis Underwater Bath Melt

First to recommend

This is the most amazing little exfoliator/moisturizer for the body that I've ever found! Use them in the bath or shower and scrub away all your dull, dry skin. Fantastically exfoliating and moisturizing all in one, the Aqua melts in warm water, covering your skin with cocoa buttery smoothness. (via lush.com)

Lush - After 8:30 Massage Bar

First to recommend

Description

I used to work for Lush and most of the products I loved have been discontinued (they're constantly doing that - why? why?) But they've smartened up and come up with Retro Lush - many of their old and discontinued products can be found here. It may be only for a limited time, but you can buy things like the After 8:30 Massage Bar, made with peppermint oil, cocoa butter and yes, white and dark chocolate!

But this, despite what it looks and smells like, is not for eating. When it's rubbed into the skin, it becomes massageable and incredibly moisturizing. I loved this for my feet - peppermint is refreshing and deodorizing. (via lush.com)

I Want YOU! Condom Cover

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Great for carrying extra protection onto an airplane. You never know when it may come in handy.

Note: if you flip it out unfolded with a deft wrist gesture and then quickly put it back, you might be able to pass it off as an air marshal's badge and get out of a sticky situation.

FYI If you don't check out all the image options......well, you're just plain crazy.
