Olverum - The Dry Body Oil Review

Olverum – The Dry Body Oil Review

OLVERUMhas been a long standing staple in my bathroom ever since I discovered their bath oil. I kid you not, the bath oil is like magic, particularly when you are feeling under the weather or need a good nights sleep.

The Must Have Summer Sandals by Steve Madden

Summer time sandals. For some, no doubt a fun experience to go shopping for summer sandals, those with normal feet, of course. But if you have ballerina feet like me, with a high instep and arch as well as long gangly toes, the process can be anything but exciting. A chore, some may say. An excursion of defeat, as it often is, due to not being able to find the right shapes, or styles that do not…

SPF In Your Makeup - Is It Enough?

SPF In Your Makeup – Is It Enough?

As we ease ourselves into a new week, the bank holiday blues may have set in. The weather this weekend was a tad a unpredictable, for days we were threatened with thunderstorms and heavy rain and the majority of the weekend ended up being really muggy and really warm. Which was great, until I got caught out in the sun.

SPF is something I actively look for as an ingredient in products I use daily,…

My Five Favourite Striped Dresses For Spring Summer Dressing

Stripes?! I know even I had to do a double take. It seems my minimalistic style is taking a bit of a detour. I notice as my confidence grows and I become more and more aware of my sense of self, I am becoming more prone to taking chances and risks, not just in fashion. Recently I have been dancing along the line of prints, first polka dots and now, stripes.

Striped dresses can be done well, and…

The Five Perfect Daytime Midi Skirts To Wear With Trainers

What a glorious week last week was. The temperatures rose, the sun was shining, and I found myself with sore cheeks by the end of it from smiling with happiness so much.

The Emotional Break Even Point of Planning a Wedding - Booking The Venue

The Emotional Break Even Point of Planning a Wedding – Booking The Venue

It’s been a rollercoaster few months, technically years, planning this wedding. From the get go, my plan was to remain grounded, unstressed and aim to take everything in my stride. Those who know me,’probably fell off of their chair laughing‘ at that last sentence.

The Vegan Beauty & Skincare Edit

The Vegan Beauty & Skincare Edit

We don’t often think about where our products come from, how they got to where they are and what processes they have undergone. We see the lipstick, the mascara, the cream. The end result basically. And tend not to take any heed, of what has gone on before. In an age of ever growing self awareness and responsibility, where the voice of the people becomes louder for change, we start to notice…

Try January - The Protein Ball Co.

Try January – The Protein Ball Co.

This year, rather than setting unrealistic resolutions or going dry for January, I decided I’m going ‘try’ things in January. The concept really is as simple as it sounds, trying new things in the month of January. I find that January, can be a little bit of a drab month, mainly because the weather is really cold and dreary, more often than not, you are skint after Christmas and of course, the…
