I’m back with another ‘Kick-Ass Careers‘. I really want to make this a more regular thing, but the ladies I ask are always so busy I can’t always get their questions back straight away. Are careers type posts something you want to see more of? Todays post is dedicated to Kristabel Plummer, who was one of the first bloggers I met. I caught up with…
So this has officially become a thing now. Having my goals written down really gives me the drive to actually do something about them. I thought maybe I’d catch you up on how I was getting on with April’s goals and then set some new ones for May. Update on April’s Goals Kitchen Renovations – Well we officially started thinking about it at the end…
Life. oh Life…. sometimes there doesn’t seem to be anything that could get you out of that funk. If I feel myself falling into that hole I find there are a few simple things that can help to lift my spirits. Flowers Whenever I want to feel better instantly, I always get myself a lovely bunch of flowers. There is something about the ritual…

I thought I’d share a few new beauty brands I’ve been loving recently in the hopes you find something that you might want to try. I’m such a sucker for posts like this on other blogs, which makes me the perfect consumer.…

This year hasn’t been the best so far. Not going to go into that but it means my little space of the internet has become a little sidelined. I noticed lots of posts about goals of the month, I thought I’d start doing this to just get my thoughts out there. Of course we are well into April now but I thought it was worth…
Self portraits have always been an odd thing to me. I’m not talking about the ‘selfie.’ Which captures a quite candid moment of ‘just because I was feeling good.’ Posing for something more formal like the pictures you see here, is very different. As a blogger I’m constantly looking at pictures of myself. Scrutinising, editing out spots (we all do it) and playing about with…
As part of my challenge to better myself this year, I want to get serious about getting back into literature. I seriously failed at this last year, there was always something else I could fill my time with. I also want to read more books by female authors, so I made a little list of books I want to tackle this year.…
Happy International Women’s Day! So much has changed since last March. With #MeToo and Time’s Up, I can feel the beginning of real change for half the population. This makes me feel excited for the future. I wanted to take the opportunity today to talk a little bit about female friendship. After your family and your partner, a group of close female friends is something…
Anyone that owns a home knows that you go in there with good intentions to change everything within the first 6 months. But time and money are massive factors which means that some projects have to wait a little bit longer. I’ve wanted to change our kitchen up for the longest time but a new kitchen can set you back thousands. I’ve decided…
As part of my things to do before I’m 30 – I’m here with the first thing I’ve tried. Contact lenses. Not wearing glasses for the past week has been weird. At first I felt like something was missing. My glasses are part of my outfit, so every time I left the house I felt that I’d forgotten something. When I started to think of…
