Yesterday I had a small tantrum about a photo taken earlier in the day. Before we continue, let me say that I am painfully aware of how ridiculous that is and how I need to just fucking get a life and think about actual problems. Stick with me though, because it’s just an example of… Continue reading A note on doing your best

The £20 outfit I found in the dregs of the January sales
I consider sale shopping - along with crisp eating, overthinking, and using 1000 words when 100 will suffice, amongst others - to be in my top 10 skills. I know, I know; some can play an instrument, some can speak another language, and lots of people can do all manner of impressive things, but I… Continue reading The £20 outfit I found in the dregs of the January sales
Letting go of the girl I’ll never be
Today I’m going to tell you about someone. You don’t know her, and I know her both very well and not at all. The not at all part is because she doesn’t exist. She is the person I always wanted to be, and the person I thought that I would be able to become, at… Continue reading Letting go of the girl I’ll never be
A chat about balance in our approach to New Years Resolutions
The internet, the office, the streets and who knows what else are rather awash with discussion at the moment on the big January tradition; New Years Resolutions. Half of what I’ve heard is ‘this year I’m going to change this’ or ‘my resolution is to…’ and half of it is ‘no new years resolutions plz’… Continue reading A chat about balance in our approach to New Years Resolutions
Hello 2018 | 18 things to remember this year
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
Goodbye to 2017
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
Making my wardrobe work harder: the Christmas jumper edition
The Christmas jumper, though completely and utterly delightful - no arguments please - might well be the winner of the 'least versatile item of clothing' title. You can only dig them out for a few weeks a year (I mean you could wear them throughout the seasons but I don't really want to), and they… Continue reading Making my wardrobe work harder: the Christmas jumper edition
On togetherness
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
How to wear a midi dress in winter (without freezing)
I feel weird about using that title, because as with everything style related, the proper answer is; however you damn well please. Wear it with literally whatever you want (although obviously, some things will be better than others for the whole not freezing thing). Still, ‘one way that I like to wear this particular midi… Continue reading How to wear a midi dress in winter (without freezing)
Time to start not-so-wasting time
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
