holiday lookbook
Hey guys, I’m actually writing this high in the sky on the plane home from my holidays, but of course by the time you’re reading this my feet will be firmly on the ground in rainy, cold England. I wanted to be somewhat productive on holiday so I filmed a video lookbook of some of the outfits I wore whilst I was there, and here are all the stills and information on where the items are...
Merry Christmas!
Hi everyone! Hope you’re all okay. It’s just a quick little post today to wish you all a Merry Christmas. I’m still over in Gran Canaria at the moment but I’ll be back in a few days and should be back to posting every day within the next couple. I’m addicted to writing at the moment and I’m excited to hit it when I get back into the country :) I hope...
leavin' on a jet plane
Hey guys, I’m writing this post from the departure lounge at Manchester Airport, I’m off to Gran Canaria for 9 days with my family for Christmas, we have a little apartment out there so we try and get out as much as possible for some sun! I said a sad goodbye to Matt, he couldn’t come as he couldn’t get the time off work, but my whole family will miss him, its the longest...

Dress - New LookJacket - Primark (years ago!)Glasses - Ray Ban Wayfarers in Dark Havana I wore this dress to Matt’s Band’s Christmas gig last Saturday, it was a spur of the moment purchase and was hanging in New Look all alone, so I’m not entirely sure if it was old stock or something that was returned as it isn’t on the website anymore. Regardless, I love it. Its...

battle of the beauty boxes: glossybox
This is part of a Beauty Box feature on Gemsmaquillage. The video at the end of this post compares the different beauty subscription boxes on the market at the moment, and these blog posts will show the contents of three boxes sent out at the end of October: Boudoir Prive, Carmine and Glossybox. All of the beauty boxes are of course wide reaching and appeal to a large demographic, but I think...

december glossybox
So this month’s Glossybox is the Christmas one, I’ve been looking forward to it since we were on the London Eye for the ambassadors welcome party. The Glossybox team promised us a great box for December so I was eagerly anticipating my pink box coming in the post, except this time, it wasn’t pink. I love the red festive box, and the fact that rather aptly its...
in december, drinking horchata
I’m definitely feeling very festive at the moment. I’ve still not finished my Christmas shopping, and I definitely only have seven days until I go on holiday too but lets not think about that right now. I’m loving cold winter nights spent in warm surroundings, reading my favourite things and drinking my favourite hot chocolate (Cola Cao from Spain which I have to ration until...
(vital)umiere aqua
I realised tonight that despite championing this foundation on my youtube channel, I have yet to give it the praise it deserves on my blog. By foundation, I of course mean the (by now rather infamous) Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua. Touted by Chanel in the English description an ‘ultra light skin perfecting makeup’, I think I have to agree more with the French description, ‘effet...
holidays are coming
Good morning, thought a little catchup was in order, I never know what to call these posts really! Here are some shots from when we paid a visit to the Manchester Christmas Market. I love the Christmas Markets but it was insanely busy when we went, I wanted to get some cool video footage but every time I got the camera out people almost knocked it out of my hands, definitely need to go back...
