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.

I thought I’d put together a little guide about how you can curate a collection that you will love. Make A List Sit down and think about what you would like to own on vinyl. For me it was a hit…
I feel like there is a lot pressure lately to ‘do it all.’ Have a successful career, a loving relationship, solid friendships, social life and more. Have you ever wanted to spend time alone doing what makes you happy, without having to answer to anyone else?…

When Winter hits a few things happen to me. My skin gets that annoying mix of incredibly dry and oily at the same time. My lips resemble that of a reptile. My hands seem to be devoid of all moisture. So when I notice a change in weather I add a few things into my routine to help combat the winter weather.…

The British High Street can be a minefield. As we all know lots of stores cater and market their clothing at the younger generation (I feel like I can say that now as I’m nearly the big 3-0). I’ve been a little fed-up of what I like to call ‘the kardashian effect.’…
