The pill. Those two little words have HUGE significance in a large percentage of women’s lives. It’s certainly been the buzz word in my life for the last ten years because if I’m being honest, it COMPLETELY changed me as…
Three Late Summer Essentials You Need
We’re in that weird period between summer and autumn, when we don’t quite know if it’s sensible to keep stocking up on dresses or a new season coat.
It’s still so sticky and humid I cannot possibly fathom stretching a woolly jumper over my head just yet. Not sure about you?
So naturally, I’m all about the transitional pieces, that are going to look lovely both with bare legs and sandals – and also a jacket and tights once the weather takes a turn.
5 Reasons You Need To Visit The Elysium
Sunsets, sea, sun, sand and sangria.
The five ingredients to a perfect getaway, right?
David and I have been lucky enough to travel quite a bit this year as a couple, which is amazing as I love sharing adventures with him, however they’d all been very full-on (I mean have you read about us camping in the wilderness in America yet?) and jam-packed.
There was no room to REALLY unwind, relax and just enjoy our surroundings.
Why it’s ok to not be ok
There seems to be a growing epidemic of needing to be positive 100% of the time.
My Instagram (I like to think) is a place of positivity, happiness, kindness and love.
I try to keep it as a relatively bright and engaging space where I can inspire others to feel positive.
A highlights reel of happiness as it were.
But that doesn’t mean that I’m ok 100% of the time.
Am I A Bad Friend?
So let me set the context for this post.
A couple of years ago, I decided to undertake my own little social experiment.
And nope, don’t worry – I wasn’t going to be parading around Piccadilly Circus in my underwear or anything like that.
Though props to the girls who do have the confidence to do that!
Instead, I decided to stop reaching out to friends and see which of them reached out to me.
Bath: The Ultimate City Guide
It’s no secret that Bath is one of my all-time favourite UK cities.
There’s something so peaceful, calming and quite magical about the rows upon rows of terraced limestone fronted houses, cobbled paths, natural springs and incredible Georgian architecture.
It’s a feel-good city, if there’s ever been such a thing.
And so when the opportunity arose to visit again, this time with my boyfriend David in tow, I booked the date in the diary immediately.
It was a lovely chance to enjoy all the benefits of a city break, without having to hop on a plane.
The Ultimate Guide To London
Often you take your home city for granted a little.
Sure it has its cool bits, but it’s just the regular, the norm and the un-exciting.
Right?
Well last year, I made a little pact with myself to really get to know London.
Both as a ‘local’ and a tourist.
I wanted to REALLY be able to recommend the good bits whenever one of you guys asked me on YouTube or Instagram.
15 Things Love Island Has Taught Us
Love Island.
Whether you’re watching it or you’re not.
Whether you love to hate it or you’re counting down the hours until it airs, gathering up your snacks like a hamster at 8.45pm so that you’re prepped and ready for the roller-coaster of an hour ahead.
You can’t deny it’s got the nation talking.
And whether it’s for the right or wrong reasons, there’s certainly several things it’s taught us all over the past four weeks.
So let’s chat…
5 Ways To Ensure A Productive Morning
I don’t know about you, but I’ve never been much of a morning person.
I used to envy those who could spring out of bed with tumbling perfect locks, dive into work or go on a brisk morning walk, before then taking on the day full steam ahead.
Whereas my morning’s would involve dragged-through-a-hedge-hair (seriously, I’m not sure what on earth went on during the night to result in such tangles, with hair sticking up at all ends), bad breath and a grouchy, grumpy mood which I couldn’t shake until I’d had at least twelve cups of tea.
What’s In My Beach Bag
It’s June.
Love Island is about to start.
And the UK has had a fair few sunshine soaked days already.

How To Guarantee A Great Hair Day!
I’ve certainly had my fair share of bad hair days in my 24 years on this planet. I think my personal cherry on the cake was when I spent one afternoon with ‘yoghurt ends’ at school, having dipped my hair…
