I often like to write about books a few weeks after I’ve read them to see how they resonate with me. I think the heart of a wonderful book is having a story that stays with you; even when I was little I would picture characters and think about their…

2016 has been a burst in beauty for me. Before this I was a bit of an amateur when it came to brands and products, so last year was really about me getting a feel of the kind of products that I enjoy and seeing what works for me. I have…

Now that my partner has fully recovered from his long term illness, I’ve been able to get back into the full swing of working full time so that we can start saving and planning for our future. Of course, that doesn’t mean we haven’t treated ourselves to some little goodies over…

So last month, I had just returned home from work and I heard the notifying ping of an email on my phone. Gone are the days when anyone gets excited over emails any more and I assumed it was the usual so-and-so liking a 12 month old post from Facebook or a promotion…

Afternoon y’all! I’m not entirely sure when I started saying ‘y’all’ but my American friend says it a lot and it’s really catching! Anyways – hello! It’s a lovely Saturday afternoon down here in Kent and I have started my diet today (standard knee-jerk reaction any girl gets the instant…
