Conversations through the middle

Life from a (slightly) more mature perspective

Cool Britannia

May 4, 2012

Everygone is gearing up to go Diamond Jubilee crazy in June and there’s jubilee, royal, Union Jack, Britannia-themed merchandise everywhere. It ranges from the totally tacky to the highly stylised, from chic to tut, and encompasses home wares, toys, wall art, food and make-up. And that’s what I’m interested in.

I’ve spotted some lovely make-up pieces that pay hommage to the upcoming 60th anniversary celebrations that are both pretty, practical and could become treasured keepsakes.

My favourites are:

Jane Iredale limited edition pure pressed mineral foundation Celebration Compact, £29.95 at www.janeiredale.com
Butter London Lillibet’s Jubilee – a metallic, glittery, sparkly purple/silver party for your nails at www.butterlondon.com

An inexpensive jubilee treat that will leave your lips soft and hydrated
Nail art – join the party with these pretty crown detail nail stickers, £2.10 for 12 at www.bcidirect.com

I live in the countryside with my dogs and cat, and I love horses, yoga and running (sometimes). Writing is what I do - I've tried other things, but keep coming back to it. And I'm learning to meditate.
