Towering over London with its iconic streamline design, 309.7 metres above the bustling city below, it is the symbol of our capital’s emerging modern style. It is the epitome of luxury, with sleek shards of glass lining the entire length of the building – and a top floor observation deck with an optional champagne accompaniment. It is the eleventh tallest building in the world and the largest in the UK. I imagine you’ve probably guessed by now that I’m talking about The Shard! Situated in Southwark, this incredible piece of architecture has been the talk of the town (or should I…
I won’t lie here. The last few months have been littered with incredible trips abroad and adventures overseas. I’ve been extremely grateful to have experienced some stunning places far and wide, some of which have been with my partner in crime – and some with fellow bloggers and influencers. It’s been so much fun. In fact, that’s an understatement. It’s been an absolute dream. But last year, I made a pact with myself to explore more of the country I live.

I can now count the number of ‘real friends’ on one hand – and I’m much more selective about who I let into my ‘inner circle’ in my head. By nature, I’m a very kind, forgiving and generous person. I’m by no means the perfect friend, but if I care about someone, I’ll help them no matter what. One of the qualities I pride myself on the most is that I’m loyal. But around the age of 18, I…
So the past few months have been a whirlwind of planes, trains, beaches and sandy shoes. And I wouldn’t trade in a single second. I’ve strolled along the Miami boardwalk with my girlfriends, enjoyed the sunset on a Caribbean beach with my boyfriend and even taken part in a spot of snow yoga with new friends, high in the Swiss alps.
