For those of you who may have clicked on this thinking I'm announcing that I'm pregnant - I'm sorry. That is not happening. *shudder*. But a little clickbait never hurt anyone right?! I do have news though! My exciting news is that I've actually written a guest post for icelolly.com! It's the ...
The Tenderloins "Where's Larry?" Tour – Cardiff 08/10/17
The Tenderloins are a comedy troupe featured in one of my all time favourite TV shows - Impractical Jokers. I don't mean to be that kind of person but it's been the light through some of my darkest days. It never fails to make me smile. Not only are they hilariously funny, but they all ...
An Honest Mental Health Post
This is gonna be a difficult one to write. I don't really know how it's gonna go, so I think I'll just bang my head against the keyboard for a bit and see what comes out on the screen. I've been away from here for a couple of weeks because I don't really know where my head's been at. It's like ...
Advice to My Younger Self
As I get older, I find myself trying to cling onto my youth more than I ever have before. When I was younger I couldn't wait to be older and have my independence, and there are so many things I would love to tell my younger self now, so I thought I'd write a few of them down. But knowing her, she ...
Reverse Bucket List
I'm going to focus on the things I have done that I'd always wanted to, being grateful for the experiences I have had, and celebrating the things that I've managed to tick off my list. I'm the kind of person who always wants more. It's something I don't really like about myself. Ironically, I ...
NARLOA | Intense Hair Oil with Lavender Review
Recently I was lucky enough to win a giveaway on Twitter by a new skin and haircare brand; NARLOA. I won a 30ml bottle of their new intense hair oil with lavender. I was so happy because I literally never win anything. This was the first of three giveaways I won in the space of about two ...
Things I'd Save in a Fire
Up until recently I'd never been able to answer the question "What would you save in a fire?". I guess that none of my possessions had that much value to me. Sure there were clothes and makeup I couldn't live without, and my Laura Ashley sofa. But there was never that one thing jumping out at me ...
15 Ways to Practice Self-Care
Did you know that approximately 1 in 4 people in the UK experience some form of mental health problem in any given year? I'm one of them - and I'd be willing to bet that if you're not, you probably know someone who is. I'll be the first to admit I don't prioritise self care as much as I should. I go ...
Why I Bought Followers and Why I Regret it Now
You may be wondering what on Earth possessed me to write this post. I might be committing blogger suicide here, but buying followers is such a taboo in the blogging world. So, I felt the need to talk to you about my experience, and perhaps offer a different perspective. I think it was around ...
How to Fold Clothes the KonMari Way
We've all had "the chair", right? When the thought of having to fold and put your clothes away just seems like far too much effort so they end up dumped in a designated spot in your room? Sometimes it's a chair, sometimes it's a floordrobe, or even on top of a box in your room (that's definitely not ...
Recipe: Caramel Apple Crumble Cake
Hands up if you love Autumn! I thought I'd try out a new little creation to get me in the Autumn mood, and it went down an absolute storm so I thought I'd share the recipe for my Caramel Apple Crumble Cake with you. Note: I posted this recipe before I became a vegan, so stay tuned for a vegan ...
Review: St James's Club Morgan Bay Resort & Spa St Lucia
As you may already know, for my honeymoon I went to the stunning Caribbean island of St Lucia. After a very long-winded discussion about where we wanted to go, and endless hours of going round in circles, I, for some reason, let my soon-to-be husband be COMPLETELY in charge of where we go on our ...
Life Mistakes I’m Glad I Made
Nobody is perfect. We're only human and we all make mistakes. Life is very much a 'learn-as-you-go' kinda deal. It would be so much easier if I'd been given a manual at birth telling me what to do and say at every point in my life instead of having to just wing it. I often think that I'd know what ...
My Wedding Video!
Tuesday 30th May 2017 was my wedding day. A year and a half of me organising, planning, and generally just Monica-ing out about everything led up to the most magical day I've ever had. Now that it's over I'm not really sure what to do with my life. One of the things that a lot of people aren't ...
What's In My Makeup Bag?
In the dream world I live in, my makeup bag would never be big enough to hold all the products I'd love to have. And a suitcase isn't really that practical to take with you on a day or night out when you might need to reapply, so we all have to settle for just a bag. We are in an ever growing ...
