Hi everyone,<\/p>\n

So how are we all bearing up? My life seems to consist solely of work, writing, running and gardening at the moment (although to be fair that\u2019s what it mostly consists of in \u201cnormal\u201d times too, just with a lot more friend and family interaction thrown in!). I haven\u2019t seen any of my family in well over a year now, as none live in the UK, and that\u2019s getting really hard. But I\u2019m trying to stay positive and hopeful that more freedom is on the way as the vaccination programme continues to roll out, and to be thankful that most people I know are well and healthy.<\/p>\n

Hence, other than to say that I\u2019ve just planted some bluebells at the bottom of the garden and dug some chicken manure into my vegetable beds, I don\u2019t really have much else to tell you right now! So I thought I\u2019d just do a quick round-up of some QVC highlights this week instead.<\/p>\n

We presenters are lent a little selection of new jewellery pieces every month to wear on air, and my little haul this month included a gorgeous \u201clove\u201d necklace from Melissa Odabash<\/a> (pictured above). I thought with Mothering Sunday coming up on 14th March this might be a good gift idea. It\u2019s so pretty – unfortunately I have to give this sample back at the end of the month!<\/p>\n\"\"\n

Something else that\u2019s caught my eye (no pun intended!) is an incredible new mascara from Benefit. The They\u2019re Real Magnet Mascara<\/a>\u00a0has a brush with a magnetic core and a magnetic formula which seems to somehow pull the mascara beyond the tips of your lashes to give an amazing lengthened effect. This isn\u2019t the best photo – it\u2019s incredibly hard, I\u2019ve discovered, to take a decent close-up photo of your own eyes! – but you can still see how much longer and thicker my lashes look on the left. I think I\u2019ll be using this one a lot!<\/p>\n
