I was scouring the internet for the perfect wrap shirt whilst simultaneously watching really bad reality TV the other night when a little notifcation popped up from Instagram – The Northern Blog Awards had tagged me in a post stating they had nominated me, along with nineteen other lifestyle, travel, fashion, beauty and parenting bloggers for the best Instagram…
Anybody who knows me and knows me well will tell you that I am a total and complete makeup junkie. But while I love mastering the smokey eye, constructing the perfect brow and painting on a bold lip, when it comes to finishing off my skin, I’m more than a little lazy, forgoing foundation 90% of the time and only…
Dear Anushka (or as everyone now calls you, Nush), Happy Birthday from the future! You’re 28 today and were meant to be celebrating your birthday in Turkey, but things didn’t quite work out as planned at the last minute. The good news is, every single one of your birthdays leading up to this one has been amazing, and the plan…
So here I am, NOT sitting on the beach sipping a cocktail in Turkey like I said I would be in my last post. Not wearing any of the new clothes I bought for my holiday. Not anywhere but back on my own sofa writing this and drowning my sorrows in a tub of ice cream. We packed our bags,…
Last year, it seemed like all we did was travel, which is why, save from our little trip to Milan in March, this year has seemed a little quiet so far. However, things look they’re about to get a whole lot more interesting as James has booked us a spontaneous holiday to Olu Deniz for my birthday this week! My…
Jeans and t-shirts. They just go together, don’t they? A little package deal – like macaroni and cheese, vodka and diet coke and Jay-Z and Beyonce. Problem is, I’ve never been much of jeans and t-shirt kinda gal. They’ve always been a bit too casual for me and it always seemed inherantly wrong to split the two up. Whenever I…
Well, hello there. It’s been a little while, hasn’t it? I’m not going to lie, I’ve been out of comission since my friend and I were involved in a not-so-great experience (to put it mildly) a couple of weeks ago. if you follow me on Instagram, you’ll know what I’m talking about and I promise I’ll write a post on…
Raise your hand if you’re guilty of feverishly devouring celebrity weight loss tips in magazines when you’re in the waiting room at the dentist. Trust me when I say that I can write a book on how Beyonce dropped 10lbs for the MET ball or how Adriana Lima got her pre-baby body back (boxing – I tried it. It ended…
I’m a die-hard city girl. Always have been, always will be. And even though I just got my driver’s license last week (woohoo!), I’m still not 100% confident driving around everywhere on my own yet and am still having to take public transport to more than a few places. But while we’re lucky to live somewhere that has some fantastic…
In case you didn’t already know, its #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek. And right up there with women empowerment, the fight against cancer and animal welfare, mental health is a cause that is very close to my heart since I know first hand how lonely, isolated and terrified one can feel, sometimes for no apparent reason. I believe that bloggers are very fortunate…
