If there’s one thing that has made this period of being at home bearable, it’s been the weather. It’s almost like mother nature has taken pity on our current situation and decided to send us the sunshine and warmth to help us get through it. I can only speak for London, but I swear we’ve […]
Last Sunday evening I was browsing the internet, looking at dresses. Something I tend to do when I’m sad, happy or just a bit bored. I saw this one that I’ve been coveting from ME + EM was on sale. I texted my friend Arlene to ask her what she thought. She sent one back […]
Call me an optimist, but this week has just felt a bit better than most. Not in any way normal or that much different to previous weeks, but a feeling of ‘things might actually get better’ came over me. Maybe a fresh start? New beginnings? Don’t come at me with your ‘New Normal’ Bullshit though, […]
I think my emotions over the last nearly 2 months can be summed up in the seven stages of Lockdown dressing. What are we on now? Week 8? Hands up who’s been riding the Coronacoaster of emotions over this time? One minute you’re all “Ok, this is fine, I can deal with this”, the next […]
Really, seriously I am definitely NOT a Beauty expert. I leave that side of things to the professionals. By those I mean, Caroline Hirons, Nadine Baggott and, sometimes, but not all the time, Trinny. But as a beauty blog post came up top in my poll of ‘What you’d like to read about this week’, […]
I did a little poll on Instagram this week about what you’d like this Sundays blog post to be about. The overwhelming response was for T Shirts, so here we are. Although, personally I was gunning for shorts, as the only pair of denim cut offs I have are literally falling apart. Usually I would […]
So, we’re heading into week 5 of lockdown with no real end in sight. I find weekends the hardest and I think it’s the ‘no end in sight’ part that gets to me. I work best with a deadline, an endgame, something to aim for, something to look forward to. This constant limbo is difficult […]
I’m not sure if it’s a scientific fact that wearing colour makes you happy, but I do think it helps. Anything we can do to boost our mood at the moment is OK with me. If that means stockpiling Lindt Mini Easter Eggs, Bulk buying fizzy wine, having 2 Chocolate Digestives and a coffee at […]
So here’s a fun thing I thought we could try this week. A Capsule Wardrobe. Taking a number of pieces from your own wardrobe and making a weeks worth of outfits out of them. Well, I say ‘fun’, it’s the loosest sense of the word I know, but come on we’ve got to take what […]
Welcome to Part 2 of the Small Brands Special. A surprise midweek post no less. Not sure you should get used to this, but if I can, I will try and blog more often over the next few months. There may be some random content coming up, so apologies in advance for any strange ramblings. […]
