Top tips to live a more exciting life!

The weather is dreary, everyone is worn out and ill after the long winter and even your diet (salads and soups in the run up to bikini season) feels dull and lifeless... But before you close the curtains on the world and go back to bed, here are some fab tips to spice up your life and inject a bit more excitement to your daily routines!

Be bold

It is easy to fall into a fashion rut- we all have our ‘safe’ items of clothing- black is slimming and goes with everything; that jumper is just so warm; the elasticated waist on those trousers makes them unbelievably comfortable- and there is nothing wrong with that. But why not try being braver with your accessories. The right accessory can turn an outfit from drab to fab. Invest in a statement necklace, a bright scarf or dress your phone up with a daring cover. This Fenice leopard iphone 4 cover is perfect for adding a bit of wild abandon to your dreary work wear!  

Be spontaneous

If there is a bar that you have always wanted to go to, or perhaps an activity that you have always wanted to do- Just do it! Don’t wait for an invitation. If you can’t find anyone to go with you, don’t be put off- go alone! Often we miss out on meeting great new people because we hide behind our good old safe friends.You never know who you might meet! 

Get your adrenaline pumping

Try to do one thing that scares you every day- be that skydiving, paintballing or simply getting a spider out of the bath! Maybe you should give karaoke a go? Get some practice in beforehand with the appsing. It transforms your phone or media device into a fully portable karaoke machine, complete with lyrics on the screen and a built-in microphone!

How to keep your valuables safe on holiday

It is very easy when you are relaxed and enjoying your holiday to be caught off-guard by opportunistic thieves. Having your valuables stolen on holiday can completely ruin your break and overshadow all of the good memories that you are making.

Mobile phone theft has risen by a staggering 25% in the last three years with, on average, 264 phone robberies reported to the police every day.

Remember to use your common sense. Leave valuables locked away in a safe or hidden in a secure place when you leave your accommodation. If you are going to the beach, only take what you really need- leave unnecessary valuables at home! 

Tourists on their phones in busy public places are easy targets and often find them snatched away before they even knew someone was approaching. If possible wear a bag that can be worn across your body and that has a secure zip to keep it closed.

Pickpocketing is the most common form of mobile phone theft. One in six of those who have had a phone stolen say it was taken from their bag or pocket. Make it difficult for thieves to remove your phone from your person with the Mi-Zone 2-way proximity alarm.  The Mi-Zone works with your handset or tablet and can be attached to anything you consider valuable or worth protecting. You can choose from 3 security settings: Low, medium and high, depending on the range of the security zone you wish to create and as soon as your belongings move outside of the selected zone, a flashing alert and audio alarm will be activated on your screen. Just keep your Mi-Zone tag by your side or in your pocket, and it will alert you when your handset or tablet is moved away from you.  You can also use it to locate missing handset/tablet by pressing the button on the tag for 10 seconds and, as long as it is in range, the alert will activate on your phone or tablet allowing you to pinpoint its exact location.

Don't let thieves ruin your holiday! Be prepared, aware and stay safe!

What the colours of your accessories say about you...

Sayings like “seeing red,” “feeling blue” or “green with envy,”  are often used to describe an emotion- But can colours really have an effect on our mood?

Researchers at the University of British Columbia have concluded that colours do in fact alter the way we feel and react to stimulus.

Subjects performed tasks with images or words displayed against blue, red or neutral backgrounds on computer screens. 

Red groups did better on tests of recall and attention to detail, like remembering words or checking spelling and punctuation. Blue groups did better on tests requiring imagination, like inventing creative uses for a brick or creating toys from shapes.

Another study carried out by Andrew Elliot of the University of Rochester showed that men considered women shown in photographs with red backgrounds or wearing red to be more attractive than women with other colours.

Colours have been used as therapy in many ancient cultures including the ancient Egyptians and Chinese and are still used holistically today. So how can we utilize colour to our advantage? Here are some ways to accessorise with colour that will say a lot about your personality and even boost your mood…

Red is the colour of passion. It denotes strong feelings and grabs attention. Red could be the perfect colour for you if you are looking to stand out in the crowd or increase a certain someone’s pulse rate!

Choose a bright pink hue of red for a more playful and sweet shade of passion, such as this Poppy Pink Fenice ipad cover.

Black is the colour of authority and power. It can often denote mystery and is timelessly chic. Vamp up your outfit with this Fenice Prada Black iphone 4 cover 

Blue is tranquil and relaxing. It can also stimulate creativity. Blue is also thought to be the colour of loyalty so is an excellent choice to wear to a job interview. Give off the vibes of trustworthy dependability with this Fenice denim blue ipad cover.

 Orange is uplifting and zingy. It is great for stimulating action and enthusiasm and relieving lethargic periods of inactivity.This juicy orange Fenice iphone 4 cover would get you moving even on the coldest of Monday mornings!
