Taylor Schilling Covers Cosmopolitan UK July 2016 Issue

Cosmo UK July 2016

The Orange is the New Black’s (OITNB) star – Taylor Schilling is on the cover of Cosmopolitan UK July 2016 issue and she is looking very good. Now this is one cover I have fallen completely in love with. I love her hair and light makeup. I love the jumper she has on, and the flirty/playful pose. Cosmo definitely got this cover right.

I adore Taylor Schilling. I think she is a great actress and I am a huge fan of OITNB. It is one of my top 10 Netflix series, and her character, Piper is my favourite inmate. So you can imagine how happy I am to know the 4th season of the hit series will be on Netflix from June 17. Happy evenings await me on the sofa!

Taylor on Cosmo July 2016 Picture

In the interview with Cosmo, Taylor Schilling talks about how fast paced and lonely her career can be –

“You feel lonely but also so deeply plugged in with your work and you forget almost. But then it gets to the weekend when I do remember and it’s like, ‘Gosh, I haven’t talked to anybody in real life for a week. I’ve only been talking to fake people, my fake friends and my fake family.’ It’s so crazy…”

She also talks about her romantic relationship with another inmate Laura Prepon (Alex) in the series, their sex scenes and her refusing to go nude –

“They’re pretty easy,” she says. “To me it’s a bit of choreography, then everyone is on their way home. It’s not comfortable, but it’s simple. For Laura and me it’s just old hat now.”

There are limits though and Taylor does have a nudity clause.

“I don’t know who wouldn’t,” she says. “But nobody is trying to sneak a nipple in there without telling you. Or an errant pubic hair!”

I admire her for sticking to her guns and I have a new level of respect for her after reading her interview. So many women and men are so quick to yank the clothes off for a few bucks. It is refreshing to see a successful actress refuse to take her clothes off.

Getting Cosy This Winter

We spend most of the times indoors during winter. As a ‘work from home mum’, I am always so busy during the day, I hardly have time to do anything else, and I tend not to go out as much this season, because of the horrid winter weather conditions. So I need my home to look good, and smell amazing for me to get comfy. Getting cosy this winter, means me relaxing and having a period of uncontrolled indulgence in what things I love.

Debenhams Flowers

I love fresh flowers a lot, it is one of those things I do not mind spending a small fortune. I just love the smell flowers and the way it changes the whole mood of a room. I fell in love with Debenhams Flowers after receiving a bouquet of Autumn Flowers some months ago, and I am still in love. It is quite important for me to have fresh flowers in my home every time, but most especially during the cold season, and Debenhams Flowers is my favourite flower shop. I am sure of finding a great collection of fresh, beautiful flowers, that do last over 7 days, and suit my taste perfectly at Debenhams Flowers, and this Designer Spirit bouquet is one of them.

Spirit Debenhams Bonquet

This bouquet is all about delicate silver asparagus fern with scented oriental lilies and elegant avalanche roses accompanied by fresh green berries and blooms. I love the scent and the look. It is perfect for every home or office this winter. You can grab yours and get a 25% off quoting DFBLOG25 at checkout.

Linea Diffusers
If you remember I gave a way this set of 3 Linea Mini Diffusers courtsey of House of Fraser some months ago. These mini diffusers also help get me cosy, along with my socks, blankets and Netflix of course. I have binged watch Nachos, all Homeland seasons, I am currently watching some independent American movies at the moment, and I am about to watch the movie – Addicted, happy days.
Back to the mini diffusers, they come in Fig Noir, Citrus Verbena and Oud fragrances, and they all leave my home smelling amazing. I love all three of them.
 Baylis & Harding Candles
Sweet smelling candles also help me relax during winter. Candles help create a calm ambience, and that only allows me enjoy my time indoors. This Baylis & Harding Limited Edition set of 3 candles is a perfect example. I got this from my George Secret Santa, courtesy of George Asda, and I am so loving it. I have all three of them burning as I type.
How do you relax indoors during winter? Speak your heart, don’t bite your tongue.
