When you say the word ‘home’, many have a clear-cut image in their mind - whether it be cooking in the same kitchen with their mother as they have all their lives, the friends they’ve made in years gone by, or their favourite little coffee nook in their hometown. ‘So, where do you consider home?’ has been a question that have come up again and again throughout my lifetime, and...

The Reading List #4

The Reading List #4

Wednesday, January 20, 2016

Last night, I did it - I finally turned the last page of my beloved A Song of Ice and Fire series. After powering my way through five (long!) books in six months, I'm now left with an empty soul that needs a good book to feel whole again (without going back and starting the series again!) My current reading list is actually a hell of a lot longer than this, but Rome wasn't built in a day, so...

Everyone has a certain selection of shades in their nail polish collection - no matter how big or small it may be - that are fit for certain occasions. Personally, I like to have a good variety of shades and brands as a base, and then build upon that with other, less wearable colours for those random occasions or moods. A girl's always got to have a solid, go-to red, for example, before you go...

Hello one and all - how are we today? I've had half of the skin under my eyebrow ripped off by a bad waxer at Benefit, but hey - that's another story for another day. Because of this slight mishap, I seem to be a tad behind schedule when it comes to today's post (see: haven't written it yet) so I have decided to put up a bit of a catch-up post to see how this blog is going down with my lovely...

The Golden Goddess - A look by Charlotte Tilbury

The Golden Goddess - A look by Charlotte Tilbury

Sunday, January 10, 2016

If you happened to take a look at my 'What I Got For Christmas' post a week or so ago, then you probably would've seen that I was lucky enough to receive an amazing set from Charlotte Tilbury - The Golden Goddess. As with many of her other 'looks', this set of products has been chosen to perfectly compliment the Charlotte Tilbury Luxury Palette in The Golden Goddess - a beautiful...

bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lipgloss in Merry Maker (£16): I'm not sure if I've talked abut these bareMinerals glosses before (I have so many posts up in the air!) but I've recently discovered them, and they're delightful. I shamefully realised that I had a bareMinerals set hidden away at the back of my drawers from last Christmas which had been abandoned in the rush to find a place for everything,...

A yearly goals list

A yearly goals list

Wednesday, January 6, 2016

I've never found New Year's resolutions to be very motivating, and therefore, effective. They're far too broad, and more often than not, they don't really have much thought put into them which results in the lack of an action plan. So, I don't make resolutions. I make a list of achievable, both long term and short term goals of varying levels of difficulty to try to complete over the year. It's...

2015: The Highlight Reel

2015: The Highlight Reel

Friday, January 1, 2016

Ah - another year has come and gone, and with it a whole buttload of fancy beauty products that have earned themselves a respectable place in my beauty routine. For me, there were a few products this year that really stood out (not all were necessarily released this year, just used by me a lot!) and I've split them into handy little sections below for you to peruse. As you can see,...
