00:12them and I'll be talking about what I love doing best entertaining loved ones

00:23huge foodie and when it comes to options on offer in Blue Water you won't be
00:28disappointed. Andrea left me to my own devices while she shops so let's take a
00:32look at my top foodie picks for you and the family. There are lots of adult dining
00:37options here at Blue Water where you can meet up with all your friends after a
00:40busy day shopping but if you're with your family come with me and I'll show you
00:44where's best to eat. This is the perfect place to come if your kids are hungry
00:48they've got a brilliant selection of restaurants including Pizza Hut, Nando's
00:52McDonald's, Greg's and Spudgy Like all under one roof. They have attractions for
00:57people of all ages. You've got Gravity for all the youngsters, you've got
01:00Dinotropolis which I cannot wait to go to and you've got a state-of-the-art
01:04cinema showing all the latest movies.
01:11So here are some looks that I've pulled from John Lewis which are occasion wear
01:16for the whole family. So starting off with this beautiful beautiful green number
01:22with little little tiny pops of shimmery gold perfect for a summer wedding which
01:27again you can accessorize either up or down you can wear with flats or some
01:31sparkly gold sandals. The same goes for this. It's a Brodre Anglais look in a
01:39sky blue or it could be a baby blue because it's a perfect dress to wear for a
01:44summer christening. Who doesn't love a garden party? You are going to be bringing the
01:49garden to the party in this beautiful print dress. It's also got a lovely
01:54elasticated waist perfect if there is a lunch involved. For ladies who lunch you
01:59can't beat a pair of beautiful crisp white jeans and we've got a denim effect
02:04blouse with a Peter Pan collar. Let's not forget the kids. This is one of the cutest
02:10parts of kids in summertime whether it's weddings or christenings. What little boy
02:15won't look beautiful in this. It's a linen look baby boy suit which I absolutely adore.
02:23I love it when you put the dads and the boys together so they're in similar
02:27outfits only I've paired it up with a happy bunny shirt. He will definitely be a
02:32happy bunny in this shirt. If only they did this in bigger sizes. This is so
02:38beautiful. It's like an Elsa Frozen moment which is going to help keep your little
02:43girl cool in summer. What a beautiful dress. Who doesn't love a floral dress for
02:50a little girl? This one again it's got the Peter Pan collar and it comes with a
02:54matching headband and if you whip them around it's got the lovely bow detail at
02:59the back as well. Now for the man in your life. This is the perfect jacket if you are
03:06thinking of going to a beach wedding or a country wedding. It is light, it is linen, it
03:12will keep you cool and will look smart. If you want to dress things up a little bit
03:16we've got a Nehru collar in a beautiful peach color or mint green stripes. Perfect
03:23for summer. And finally who doesn't love a little bit of Magnum PI when it comes to a
03:29Hawaiian style shirt. This would look great either with denim cut-off shorts or even a
03:34smart pair of Bermuda shorts as well. Perfect for a summer outing.
03:42So we've been around the shops, we have found our perfect outfits and now it is time to accessorize them.
03:49And what that means is these timeless must-haves from Citizen Watches.
03:54Well they're brilliant. What's great about them is there's so many of them but they're all perfect for different personality
03:59types.
03:59And I'm somebody who actually has quite a few watches. I really like it.
04:02Why am I not surprised?
04:03Well you know it's a wardrobe of watches but it's really important to have that for different occasions
04:07and Citizen Watches have those perfectly. This one I've got here is extremely sporty
04:12but it's still got that classic look. It is a smart watch so it helps you with your steps which
04:17I really need
04:19to keep fit and also it also has your messages etc. It's got a great strap which is very durable
04:24but also the best thing about it Andrea is that it has 15 days of battery on it because a
04:29lot of times
04:29I'll have a smart watch and I'm like oh my god it's gone. This one is perfect. It's two weeks
04:34worth. It's great.
04:35What I really like about that is it looks like a traditional watch face. You wouldn't know that actually
04:40it's got all the smart watch capabilities to it. It's great.
04:43Great colour as well.
04:44Actually talking of colour what I love about this one is it's got the blue face and it's a slightly
04:49oversized female watch so it's got that sort of masculine touch to it but still with some really
04:55elegant more feminine touches. Beautiful. Great transition from day to night as well if you want
05:01a sportier look but still quite elegant and classic. Definitely it's perfect. It goes really well with
05:05your gorgeous outfit you're wearing today. My pretty woman dress. Yeah exactly and also what's great about
05:10it too is that that sort of oversized sort of in the female range is extremely bang on trend at
05:15the
05:15moment. This is part of the range that they have at Citizen Watches and what I love about them is
05:20you've got some brilliant faces here but there's also collector's items here which are limited edition.
05:25This one's a red arrow as we saw them doing the amazing flyover in the platinum jubilee and this is
05:30something you can get your hands on but also it's a collector's item so people will love it. It's very
05:34sporty it's got their logo on it and it's ultra cool as well. It is. That's fantastic. You're going to
05:39get me one.
05:40A red arrow's watch. You're going to buy me one. Of course. Thank you Andrea. I love them.
05:43So Nick I know you are such a fan of watches that not only transition from day to night in
05:49terms of
05:49fashion but you don't have to do too much thinking about it. The last watch you had on had what
05:5415 days
05:55of battery time. You've gone one better. Well yeah I have to go one better Andrea and this is fantastic
06:00for
06:00Citizen Watches. What's great about it is it means you actually don't need any batteries, no charging,
06:06nothing. It's constantly charged which is perfect for someone who's active. It's brilliant as well
06:11because it is so waterproof. It's great for swimming. It's great for scuba diving and snorkeling. Even
06:16if you're in the shower. Okay. It's the kind of thing you can wear whenever you want. Even if the
06:19deepest
06:19you get is in the bath. You're all good. Exactly. And also it's super stylish which I absolutely love as
06:23well. You can wear it with a suit but also in a more sporty look as well. I like that.
06:26That's pretty much all the
06:27yeses isn't it. Exactly. Showering, scuba diving and super stylish. Exactly. I like that. Any more?
06:32No. I think what more do you want? Sensational are my favourite words. Talking about sensational,
06:37that looks wonderful on you. This is so beautiful. It's such a feminine watch. It's got a mother of
06:42pearl face so it kind of catches the light and also goes with any colour because as you know mother
06:50of
06:50pearl it sort of picks up whatever it's surrounded by and I like to think of it as a beautiful
06:55transitional
06:55watch in terms of you don't really need any other. Of course it will carry you through
07:01daytime whether you're at work or if you're heading out in the evening. It's a beautiful
07:05feminine statement piece. Yes we can be selfish and buy them for ourselves but also they make
07:08brilliant presents for people. Whether that's anniversary, a birthday or any kind of occasion
07:14they're just perfect. They've got a brilliant rain. I like the stainless steel but if you are looking
07:18to gift it to someone who prefers gold then it also comes in the beautiful classic yellow gold as well.
07:23As gorgeous as eye-catching and very very super stylish. There's another S. Oh my.
07:29Thank you for coming shopping with us. I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
07:32And see you next time. Bye.
