*Please note this post contains affiliate links* Hello! How are you? It’s been a little while since I last blogged. It’s the final week of emergency schooling here in the UK (I read somewhere that we shouldn’t refer to it as ‘home’ schooling. Home schooling is intentional. This is quite different. ‘Crisis’ schooling is probably more appropriate!) and I am counting down these final 5…
*This post was written in collaboration with Amazon Fashion- AD* I’ve realised recently that I am a mood dresser. Some days I dress to try and lift my mood and sometimes I dress to match my mood. Here are a few ways I dressed to suit my mood during another month of lockdown. Outfit 1 – I’m at home, so I want to feel comfortable…
*Please note my blog posts may contain affiliate/ad links* Hello! As it’s my first post of 2021 I should probably say ‘Happy New Year’ How are you all? Things feel quite tough right now don’t they? Never before has the ‘one day at a time’ mantra felt so apt. Trying to look ahead in a time of such uncertainty will inevitably lead to disappointment, so…

*This post was written in collaboration with Amazon Fashion – AD* There are lots of amazing deals to be had at Amazon Fashion this Black Friday. These black boots by Amazon’s own label Find, have the perfect heel height, and are not too tight around the calf muscles, something I have always struggled with when looking for long boots. The wider leg allows for ruching…

*This blog post contains some affiliate/ad links* I seem to be all about the rituals these days. Since I finished painting the snug (the room we watch TV) it has become a room that draws everyone in. Perhaps we should rename it the drawing room?! It’s amazing to think that changing the colour of walls can have such an impact in terms of energy in…
For the past month I have really been enjoying a gin and tonic with my mum. Not every night, I tend to save myself for Thursday- Sunday. It’s become a lovely ritual for us and signals that down tools moment. I am really enjoying the Pink Malfi Gin (Currently £25 here) and the Hortus Rhubard and Gin from Lidl. (I suspect that this won’t be…

*This post was written in collaboration with Topshop- AD* For this month’s Topshop selection, I decided to try out two new styles of denim to make a change from my favourite Straights and Editor styles.
