Good Morning and welcome to Black Friday, the official Black Friday that is. If you’ve been browsing the internet this week, or have just been doing the odd bit of early Christmas shopping, then you’ll be aware that it is a discount jungle out there. Retailers have started their ‘cyber weekend’ offers earlier and earlier and whilst this is utter temptation, I’m looking at it on the plus side…time to
Boots, our favourite high street drug store, has pulled it out of the bag this year by not only providing their stores and online site as a one-stop-shop for all your beauty needs, but by bringing a new experience of personalisation to life for the first time this Christmas! And I’m definitely not referring to the personalisation of the printed T-shirt kind. From personalising makeup bags to body butter tubs,
Rucksacks are finally cool again yay! Being a woman who always feels the need to carry everything (with exception to the kitchen sink) in her handbag the resurrection of the rucksack came with a cheer! Purely down to the even distribution of weight being carried around and hey a rucksack has more room than a clutch bag to carry ALL those essential items! In today’s post I wanted to discuss
It’s the famous Glastonbury weekend and after watching Adele on tv last night yeah, I’m feeling a bit of FOMO! Music, friends, and nothing to worry about apart from who to go with and what to watch next sounds like an inviting option…oh, and the mud! Yes, you read right – mud! So, in order to correct this mud-less low, I decided to go and take the dog for a
It’s officially Spring, the one time of year that legitimises the nation having a good old clear out! Spring cleaning sounds like a chore but it is something that a lot of us actually enjoy. After a year of accumulating stuff, it’s the perfect time to have a little clear out and get rid of those unwanted Christmas presents that you have been storing away! Me, personally, I tend to
Rucksacks (or backpacks as they are also known) have made a huge comeback over the past two years. What was seen as a device for carrying around your school books and PE kit in suddenly became cool. Commuters switched up their smart handbags and laptop bags and opted for something more practical and kinder on the posture. Whether you were carrying the latest pricy Herschel or MCM (for the ubercool
Yes it’s here again! Christmas Jumper Day! This year the charity Save the Children have teamed up with ITV Text Santa and two other fantastic charities: Macmillan Cancer Support and Make-A-Wish UK to give hope to families in difficulty at Christmas. How do you take part? Well it’s simple, text SANTA5 or SANTA10 to 70760 to donate £5 or £10 (texts cost £5 or £10) and ask everyone you know
It’s November and officially the acceptable time of year to start getting excited about Christmas! The Central London Christmas lights have been turned on, the Christmas window displays are in full show, and supermarkets stocks are piled high with mince pies and mulled wine. If you’re someone who likes to be super organised (as much as you can be), then it’s time to start thinking about Christmas gift ideas
Some people like going barefoot in the home while others like wearing slippers. As for me, well, I’m a total slipper girl! Not because I have a weird thing about walking barefoot, more because I like to keep my tootsies nice and cosy as opposed to two ice blocks at the end of my feet! I’ve literally tried, bought and worn probably all different types of slippers going so when
On a rare weekend kept purely free for a bit of me time, I decided to venture to the Fashion and Textile Museum to immerse myself in everything Liberty! Liberty and its iconic prints have firmly been a part of the British fashion scene for the past 140 years. Founded by Arthur Lasenby Liberty, the company started off as a warehouse importing textiles. It later expanded into areas such
