The other day, I popped to Superdrug to buy toothpaste, and as soon as I set foot in the place I remembered I’d also run out of concealer that morning. I’m not really sure what happened between that moment and an hour later when I was running back to work with swatches and creams and… Continue reading Four things I’ve added to my make up bag recently
When this post is published, I will be on holiday. Presumably, at some point on said holiday, I will be wearing swimwear. As I write this, I have one day before going on holiday, and yesterday’s try-on session of bikinis and swimsuits was nothing short of an ordeal. The thought of putting on swimwear is… Continue reading The mental minefield of dealing with weight gain
For my birthday this year, I got The Bergen Railway. Well...I got a ticket for it. And if you think getting a train ticket for your birthday doesn’t sound exciting, then think again my friend, because this isn’t a standard journey; it’s one of the world’s most scenic train rides, your ‘thing to do’ for… Continue reading The Bergen Railway

Ages 14… Continue reading Trying to sort out my skin: T-Zone review

There’s painful irony in that once you read… Continue reading When perfectionism becomes a problem
Bergen was our last stop when we went to Scandinavia earlier this year, so it's about time I got round to talking a bit more about it. Charming and colourful despite being renowned for its rainfall, Norway's second-largest city is a fantastic place to base yourself if you want to see the Fjords, and lovely… Continue reading Three nights in Bergen
We all love transitional fashion, don't we? It forms part of what seems to be a blogger's wildest fantasy - swishing through crunchy autumn leaves in ankle boots and a chunky knit in front of your Olympus Pen-wielding Instagram boyfriend for the perfect 'candid' shot, ideally accompanied by a PSL (despite the fact that they're… Continue reading Early Autumn wardrobe heroes
If you’ve landed on my blog before now you’ll probably know from me going on and on about it that I loved Oslo. I wrote about why I thought it was so great here, but today I just wanted to talk about a morning we spent there. It was one of those times when you’re… Continue reading A sunny morning exploring Vigeland Sculpture Park, Oslo
