A few months ago I decided to take on a second job. ...
Theatre trips for me are like buses. I can spend years not going to the theatre and then I'll go twice in a week!! I've been a bit of a fan of Agatha Christie's stories now since Christmas time, when 'And Then There Were None' was televised on BBC1 (based on the book, Ten Little Soldier Boys). Since then I've been thinking about...
The other day my colleague told me about an App that she had downloaded on her phone, called TodayTix, which allows you to buy last minute theatre tickets for super cheap prices. After her recommendation I decided to have a look at the deals. ...
Last week Mac released their latest Special Edition lipstick in collaboration with American rapper and singer, Brooke Candy. Of the six shades available, (only four of which come in the metallic siver bullet!) I opted for 'Whirl' which is one of Mac's existing shades, but one that I feel is more wearable on a daily basis. ...
Last weekend we took a spur-of-the-moment trip to Shooter's Hill in London, as we'd seen a Dog Show advertised online. As we had nothing else to do (and we love dogs!) we went along. I think we both underestimated just how many people and dogs were going to be at this event - and even Professor Green showed up! I thought I would...
Zac Posen is renowned in the fashion world, particularly for his handbags and wedding dresses and last month teamed up with Mac to release three new lipsticks. ...
This has to be the prettiest Birchbox package so far! This month's Birchbox contains the following: - Benefit's 'BADgal Lashes' mascara - eyeliner by Cynthis Rowley - tinted 'wonder eye cream' by Balance Me - Hydro Nutritive shampoo and conditioner by Beaver Professional and - foot cream by Kueshi ...
To finish off a great Easter holiday, the boyfriend fiancée and I took a trip around the coast to a number of seaside towns in Kent. We started by visiting Ramsgate, which both of us have been to as kids, but neither of us can remember! ...
As it's the Easter holidays and my friend and I have time off from work, we decided to meet up and have a mamoth shopping trip. As usual we hit Primark (or as we call it, Primani!) and I couldn't beloieve what I found... a BATMAN MAKE UP RANGE!!! ...
Last week my friend celebrated her 27th Birthday and she decided the only way to do it was to go to Cream's Cafe for sundaes and milkshake! ...
I'm so happy the weather's finally getting better - I hate taking photos in the winter time because they all come out really dark! Anyway... this month's Birchbox is called 'Word Up' and contains the following: - Polaar IceSource Moisturising Gel - a nourishing hair mask by amika - a brow wand by ModelCo in the shade medium-dark - Philip B's drop dead...
To be honest, sometimes I prefer an autobiography to a fiction book - as long as it's well written that is! I picked up Cheryl's book a couple of years ago when it was on offer in WHSmith and I've only just got around to reading it, which is kind of embarrassing! I'm not 100% sure what it was that made me procrastinate...




Well, yesterday was officially the first day of Spring! This winter seems to have flown by and we didn't even get one single flake of snow where I live. (Don't worry though, I still got to experience a snow machine in Rochester high street - although it literally went everywhere, including in the cup of hot chocolate that I was carrying!). When I...
I'm literally so happy right now. My Mac's Viva Glam Ariana lipstick has arrived!! I must admit it was a bit of an indulgence for me, since I rarely wear deep shades, but I figured I would try it, and I'm so pleased I did! ...




Oh my gosh, what I would do for summer to hurry on up already! I've literally been looking forward to the end of term, planning what I'm going to do and where I'm going to be going. My friends are finally coming back from a 7-month backpacking trip around Asia and I can't wait to celebrate a mid-year Christmas with them and make...

This month's box contains: - 'Patagonia' Body Butter by AYRES - One and Done Eyeshadow stick by LOC in the shade 'Champagne Problems' - Spectrum Collection's tapered finishing brush - theBalm cosmetics' 'Frat Boy'...


PLEASE NOTE: Before anyone gets uppity about how weight loss pills are bad for you, etc. let me just say now that these are NOT weight loss pills. They are NOT a food replacement tablet or anything crazy like that - believe me I love my food way too much for that! They are vitamin tablets that ensure you're still getting the right vitamins while your...




First off, let me just start by saying... HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!! This Valentine's day, my bf and I have decided not to go out for a fancy meal this year partly because every other time we've done it, it's always felt a bit rushed because the restaurant needs to get another couple seated at your table asap and also because neither of us...


Christina Aguilera's perfume has been on my wishlist for some time now, ever since I sampled it in a magazine a few years ago, however it wasn't untill I was in B&M the other day that I decided to buy it. This was Aguilera's first fragrance and was released in 2007, but the scent and design of the bottle are clearly very popular...


I'm a little bit addicted to magazines. Shameful! But I stumbled across one in the supermarket that I hadn't seen before and I gave in to temptation. Every month I buy Women's Health magazine so when I saw Healthy magazine I thought I'd give it a try and see whether it was on par with my usual. This month's edition came with a...
