7 Things That Happened When I Gave Up Dairy
Two years ago, I was the biggest cheese addict known to mankind.
In fact, I don’t think my friends would have batted an eyelid if I’d announced I was changing my middle name to “Cheese.”
I lived, ate, and in fact, I’m pretty sure on one occasion I practically inhaled it.
So imagine my huge shock and disappointment when I was told I was severely intolerant to it…
Girls: We Need To Talk About This
Us girls are pretty good at talking about most things. I know me and my girlfriends bare no bones when it comes to chatting about relationships, break-ups, work-place disputes and general celebrity gossip.
We do like a good chin-wag, let’s face it.
But there’s some things that for some reason, we just don’t talk about.

Feel Good Skin
I don’t think I’ve explored it in too much depth (just yet) on my blog, but over the past few months – my skincare routine and the products I use on a daily basis to cleanse, tone and moisturise –…
Add a little confetti to each day!
Blogging has brought me some amazing opportunities in the five and a half years I’ve been running this site. From attending the BAFTA’s, to appearing in my very own TV advert, to hosting events and meeting over 200 like-minded people….
The thing 1 in 5 of us have but don’t want to talk about
So this post is a bit of a different one. It’s probably going to stick out like a sore thumb in among pictures of my Thailand travels and my attempt at being a fashion blogger. But hey, I think it’s…
Packing for island hopping in Thailand!
As many of you may know (thanks to my excited social media mentions), earlier last month – I jetted off to Thailand, for a 16 day adventure with my boyfriend David. It had been a couple of months in the planning…
How losing weight changed me
For as long as I can remember of my teenage and adult life, I’ve been on some kind of diet. A sad thought, I know – but I’m sure one that many other women can relate to. I’ve always been…
