An honest chat about life after university
June 1st marks a whole year since I hadn’t in my very last assignment at university. I may have actually handed it in a couple of days earlier actually, but June 1st was definitely the deadline. It was also the day that my uni held a little farewell party for the third years and we…

Cocktails, castles and board games| Cardiff 2019
Hi everyone, In April we decided to spend our Easter weekend in Cardiff, in search of some sunshine and a bit of peace and quiet. Although it wasn’t quiet – it was the Bank Holiday after all – it was definitely a refreshing change from the congested London that we’re used to. As soon as…

A long weekend, giving up coffee and learning how to use a camera | April 2019
Can we just open this blog post by discussing the weather we had in April? For the first time this year I left the house bare legged and I didn’t go anywhere without my sunglasses over the Bank Holiday weekend. I don’t know if it had anything to do with the weather, but April was…

Procoal Instaclear Control Mask* | Review
I’ve always been reluctant to try new sheet masks. I find that they often feel like they’re smothering my face and clogging my pores as instead of actually hydrating my skin. For context, my skin is naturally quite dry and I’ve struggled a lot with eczema since I was younger too, which is why I’m…

All the brunch spots, a couple of flower walls and yet another spa day| February 2019
Short and sweet. And full of flowers. That’s how I’d sum up February. I’m not sure why but this month has been full of spontaneity- maybe it was the weather? Speaking of which, I felt so divided when we had that week of good weather. Although it was nice to leave the house without a…

A blog collab, a spa day and The Greatest Showman sing-a-long| January 2019
It’s safe to say that January 2019 wasn’t a typical January at all. This month went by really quickly and I seemed to have so much planned. Usually my January consists of comfort food and a low bank balance. I did eat a really good pancake stack this month (as you can see from the…

A little bit of luxury from Ingle & Rhode | AD
I’m not going to lie to you – I’ve never really been in a position to delve into the world of luxury. In fact, my idea of luxury is treating my windowsill to a fresh bunch of daffodils. Although I’m not all that into luxury or high-end fashion, one thing I am very much into…
