During the excitement surrounding the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards event, talked soon turned to business cards as it was the perfect chance to network with other bloggers and brands. I’d been considering getting business cards for a while as there had been quite a few occasions when people had asked about my blog and it would have been the perfect time to hand over a card. I headed to Zazzle and had a…
Rapidlash – An Update
Back in January I posted my Rapidlash review. The tube ran dry just as my lashes reached their peak length and with other things going on I didn’t think to repurchase it. Within a couple of months my lashes were noticeably shorter and I longed for the length and curl I used to have so I promptly purchased another tube. I was happy to find my lashes grew to even longer…
Rockin’ around the Christmas Tree…
Christmas is my absolute favourite time of year. Everything is so magical and I get caught up in the excitement as if I was a child again. Although Matt and I have now lived together for three and a half years, this year will be the first where our house is fully decorated and ready for Christmas! My parents house is always beautifully decorated by my mum during the festive season so…
Hot Buttered Rum
With the crisp cold weather there’s nothing more enjoyable than snuggling up in toasty warm socks, a huge knitted cardigan and wrapping your hands around a hot beverage to take the chill off. After we finished putting up our Christmas decorations this year, we settled down with a mug of the ultimate festive drink and I thought I’d share it with you. Last year I was sent a sample of…

Revlon Cherries in the Snow Lipstick
I’ve always been very safe when it comes to lipsticks, so if you were to delve into my lipstick drawer, you would find a large range of lippies which are essentially varieties of the same shades of nude and pink. When I was sent the popular Revlon Cherries in the Snow to use with Lipcote, it seemed the perfect time to make a departure from my comfort zone and tread into…
When the Christmas Shopping is over…
…it’s time to settle down with a hot drink, a tin of delicious biscuits and a good book. Christmas shopping can be stressful. Hoards of people, heavy bags, the panic and bickering over what to buy who. To warm up and wind down I cosied up with some hot chocolate (I’m not a tea or coffee drinker!) white chocolate and lemon biscuits from Crabtree & Evelyn (isn’t the tin lovely?)…
Shabby to Chic – Transforming Second Hand Furniture
It’s been just over a year since my husband and I bought our beautiful 3 bedroom Victorian home and besides the occasional glimpse in a photo I’ve not yet dedicated any blog posts to the interior of our home. When we moved in the house was completely empty save for the pieces below as we couldn’t wait to be rid of the cheap (and pretty useless) furniture which had seen through the two years…
Carmine November Box
A couple of days ago I was surprised with Carmine’s November instalment and I was pleased to find it’s a good one this month! The box wasn’t quite as difficult to get into as last time although a good deal of frustrated huffing and puffing still took place. New CID i-Pout Lipstick I was happy to find a lipstick in this months box. I’ve started to experiment with more colour…
Foxy Locks Lashes
With Christmas fast approaching it’s time to find the perfect party dress, sort your nails and perfect your hair in preparation for the festive season. I never step out to a party without a pair of false lashes on, so when the lovely Imogen from Foxy Locks Extensions offered me the chance to review some Foxy Lashes, I jumped at the chance to trial even more styles and shapes in search…
