Happy New Year, you beautiful things! I hope your NYEs were fun/mad/cosy/quiet/whatever you wanted them to be. Mine was spent on the sofa for the first time in maybe 15 years and I absolutely loved it, so I guess I’m a) an adult and b) really boring now. We’ll talk new years resolutions, intentions, goals… Continue reading Hello 2018 | 18 things to remember this year
So, here we are. The last day of 2017. The year seems to have passed in a bit of a blur really, but as it's drawn to a close, I've done my fair share of reflecting on the last 12 months (how many times have you read a phrase similar to that recently?). I've just… Continue reading Goodbye to 2017
This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Thomas Sabo Just in case you hadn’t seen enough wreath adorned doors, artfully arranged tinsel flatlays and gloved hands clutching mulled wine cups (guilty as charged) while browsing Instagram lately, allow me to inform you of something; it’s nearly Christmas. Christmas is about many things – gift-giving, parsnip-eating, mulled wine drinking and trying to win… Continue reading On togetherness
One of my biggest fears, and in many ways biggest obsessions, is wasting time. Wasting anything in general actually doesn’t sit well with me at all – it’s what has me eating absolutely everything on my plate because err you what mate I am not putting good food in the bin – but precious minutes… Continue reading Time to start not-so-wasting time
Here is a list of things I have done rather than start this blog post, which was the one thing I really wanted to do this evening: Applied some unnecessary lotions and potions to my face Edited some photos Left what can only be described as ‘fuckloads’ of comments on you lovely people’s Instagram photos… Continue reading This is why perfectionism is productivity’s worst enemy
In recent weeks I’ve been thinking a lot about the way that creativity and inspiration come – and go - in waves. I suppose in some ways, this has been on my mind because I’m going through quite a busy period; I’ve lacked the headspace for anything other than the most mediocre of posts on… Continue reading The ebb and flow of creativity
Lately I’ve not really felt like my best self, so I'd like to invite you to what is shaping up to be some kind of personal therapy session, because today I'm going to go into why. I highly doubt there will be a structure to this post but I suspect it could be a long… Continue reading Can I get a refill, please?
Allow me to set up this post by telling you about a common scenario in our house; It’s Saturday, and I am intending to publish a blog post on Sunday. I don’t have photos for it yet, so I need to take them today. I do my hair and make up then get into the… Continue reading Learning to brush off life’s little irritations
I've always had a bit of a penchant for dresses, and for dressing up. Since the age of around 18, a dress has been one of the items of clothing I feel most confident in. I've added more and more to my wardrobe, and over the years I've known that if I'm feeling unattractive, or… Continue reading In defence of dressing up
It’s a funny thing, this getting older lark. One glance at a shelf in any card shop is enough to let you know that we’re supposed to be collectively terrified of it, and yes, I do my fair share of 'Can you believe how close we're getting to thirty? So scary' - but at the… Continue reading The best thing about getting older so far
