Hey everyone,<\/p>\n

Hope you all had a great Easter with lots of chocolate! \ud83d\udc23<\/p>\n

I write this while eating a white chocolate egg… so enough said concerning me on that front!! It was a much smaller event this year than is usual in the Dawson household, but then again, last year was pretty much the same. Really hoping that we can get back to lots of friends and family gatherings very soon, as I\u2019m sure most of you are too!! I so miss them!<\/p>\n

So yes… never fear, I\u2019m sticking to my day job! Jilly Halliday<\/a> and myself were asked to take part in a little fashion shoot ahead of our fashion event this weekend. Now you would think given my job with presenting live TV and all the studio lights and cameras etc. that this should be a bit like a “duck to water” type scenario… but guess what? I absolutely detest having my photo taken! Honestly!! (I can just about manage a selfie for Instagram<\/a> and that\u2019s only a relatively recent event). It\u2019s one thing to point me towards a camera where I\u2019m chatting, moving around and presenting, but a whole different ball game being fairly static or \u201cposing\u201d as it were. Not my bag at all!!<\/p>\n

Nevertheless with the team on board (fabulous Capri our photographer and Stine our multi-talented stylist), I have to say it was utterly painless and in fact quite fun.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

Believe it or not the shots were not actually posed for but were mainly captured with me chatting or being told to look around etc. I was surprised at how the time flew by and thought that the girls did a really great job with both us presenters (probably a tad easier with lovely Jilly as their subject matter… she\u2019s a natural!!).<\/p>\n\"\"\n

So yes, I loved my outfits… from the Ruth Langsford trousers<\/a> to the Joules blazer<\/a> and wow, so totally loved the WULI:LUU by Gok Wan blouse<\/a> too!! A quick mention as well to look out for Saturday’s Today’s Special Value offer, a gorgeous midi dress from Ruth Langsford, which goes live at 9pm tonight.<\/p>\n

But come 9pm Saturday night, we shall all be turning our attention to the great British brand of Elemis for a truly whopping offer in the form of Sunday\u2019s Today\u2019s Special Value!! The Energise & Renew Five-Piece Collection<\/a>. Now I have just caught up with the gorgeous Keeley in Cyprus (video call of course) and we were both saying this is like a Christmas TSV at Easter!!<\/p>\n\"\"\n

It\u2019s not just about the value either, you have a true headliner here in the form of the brand new Pro-Collagen Renewal Serum<\/strong>. This really is the wow factor in terms of the most recent innovation and development from the brand. Retinol, a buzz word in beauty to many, but a source of discomfort and irritation to others. Normally kept for nighttime, here this latest launch has all the ingredients that mimic retinol on the skin but without any potential downside. The results? A seriously fabulous anti-ageing serum at the top of its game!!<\/p>\n\"\"\n

First time ever also in a TSV, we\u2019re getting the Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30<\/strong>. Add to that the glorious Energising Marine Cleanser<\/strong> and the only decision you need to make is whether to go for the Bath & Shower Milk<\/strong> and complementing Body Cream<\/strong> in either the Sea Lavender & Samphire or British Botanical options. Think refreshing oceanic wake up call versus a calming and cocooning tranquil oasis for the soul!!<\/p>\n

My favourite (which actually surprised me) is the British Botanical. This is not just some sort of \u201cflowery\u201d experience… this feels uplifting and harmonising, like it\u2019s melting away all the stress and anxiety with an overwhelming sense of peace and tranquility. I adore it.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

So please don\u2019t miss out on this great offer. I\u2019ll be on your screens with it Sunday at 1pm stock permitting!! And stocks are depleting as it\u2019s available on pre-sell now!!<\/p>\n

There you have it folks. I\u2019ve include a couple of Easter pics for you as well as it’s never too early for a couple of chocolate treats… even at 9am (see clock in the background).<\/p>\n\"\"\n\"\"\n

Oh and as far as \u201cthose other pics\u201d are concerned… don\u2019t worry, like I said, \u00a0I\u2019m not giving up my day job anytime soon!!<\/p>\n

Lol \ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23<\/p>\n

Take care and see you at the weekend,<\/p>\n
