It only takes the teeniest glimmer of sunshine to set me off. One sunny afternoon and all of a sudden I’m in full summer mode. Regardless of the actual temperature outside. And whether or not…
You know you’ve had a good weekend when you wake up sunburned, blistered and still shattered on Monday. And this one has been one of my favourite weekends in a long time.. Starting with dinner…
Since the weather has started making improvements, I’ve been making small additions to my summer wardrobe. So far (as mentioned here, in my post the other week), that’s primarily consisted of buying all things gingham.…
Today I woke up on the right side of the bed. It’s been one of those days where you just wake up in a great mood, feeling really productive! Definitely something I haven’t felt for…
There’s nothing I love more than playing dress up. Or parties. So when Lauren (the brains behind Scran on the Tyne, THE premier food blog in the Toon), invited me along to French Connection on…
Working at Precept, I’m lucky enough to get to work with a wide range of clients, helping them turn their business into a brand. And I thought it was about time to introduce one of…
In celebration of their Beauty Week, which has been taking place since Monday, the lovely people at Fenwick kindly sent me a special goody bag of their favourite products this summer. Since I’ve been a…
Since its successful launch with screenings of The Big Lebowski at boutique bowling alley, Lane7, Screenage Kicks is quickly making a name for itself as the premier pop-up cinema event in Toon. With live action…
I feel like lately all of my blog posts start with some excuse for my recent silences.. but really I don’t have one. Other things just keep getting in the way. Weekends of by the…
When it comes to burgers, there’s one place in town that instantly comes to mind: Fat Hippo. A North East institution nestled in Jesmond, it’s the sort of place you queue for a table. Because…
The other week I had my friend Sarah staying over and while she was hunting around for a cleanser, we got onto the subject of beauty bloggers and people who recommend products. She wanted something…
Despite the greyness of the weather, today officially marked the start of British Summer Time. I’m preferring to focus more on the fact that this signals the coming of bare leg weather, rather than the…
Since I’m pretty much still in recovery mode after a busy weekend, I thought it was maybe a good time to share my (pretty long overdue) post about Newcastle’s latest offering on the pubs and…
It’s not every day that Chanel drops onto your doorstep. So you can imagine my surprise when I found out about the carefully curated collection of authentic vintage Chanel bags that have appeared in Fenwick’s…
Although the weather is still refusing to cooperate, I’m beginning to feel Spring creeping up on us. I still need to wear a big coat, but bare arms and legs are only a few weeks…
It’s been a long time since I’ve wanted to write anything. Longer than my posting habits would let on to be honest, because in the last few weeks there’s been times where I’ve forced myself…
What with the chaos of moving this past week, and the intense cleaning (which pretty much took over my weekend), I feel as though it’s been ages since I’ve just had a chance to sit…
Apologies for being a little MIA this past week or so.. As I mentioned in my post the other day, I’m in the process of moving so most of my free time has been occupied…
When it comes to scandal, I feel like American Apparel are the Miley Cyrus of high street retailers. They capitalise on the shock factor of their advertising when it comes to their photography. Just like…
After having to take some time off I’m spending the weekend trying to get myself back into routine. I’m feeling better than I have been for the last few days, so on Friday I decided…
