Home Improvements Around the World

When it comes to home improvements, I have a list as long as my arm that I want to do when we own our own home. At the moment, being in a flat means we are restricted to just painting the walls and we certainly can’t extend anything! But when we do buy I have this dream of heading to an auction, buying a totally…

Ever Glaze Nail Varnish

Anyone that knows me in real life will know how clumsy and heavy handed I can be, so my nail varnish has to match that! I do usually have Shellac nails as these last three to four weeks but I tend to peel those off an ruin my nails after so I’ve been looking for an alternative for a while now. Queue the arrival of…

Thinking About Moving In? *

This time next month I will have lived with Mike for a year, it’s gone so quickly that I didn’t even realise it has been that long until I started to write this post! We’ve done a pretty good job of living together, if I may so so myself, as we’ve become such a team that everything runs mega smoothly. When you don’t have to…

A Night with Apple Music

On Monday I was lucky enough to be taken to the Apple  Music Festival at the Camden Roundhouse by a friend. I just thought I’d share a couple of photos as both Christine and The Queens and The 1975 were bloody awesome!

#AsicsSecretGig with JD Sports

On Wednesday we headed over to a secret location for a secret gig with JD Sports and Asics to celebrate the launch of their new Chameleon colour changing trainers. The secret location was Mangle Nightclub in London Fields and it was such a crazy cool venue. I certainly felt far too nerdy being there! I met up with the super lovely Kassie, Natalie and Katie and we…

Indulging at The Chophouse, Braintree *

Being a born and bred Essex girl I love finding hidden gems in towns I have never visited before, much like when we headed over to Braintree to try the Sunday Lunch at The Chophouse. I warn you, don’t read this if you’re hungry! With one of the warmest welcomes I’ve ever received at a restaurant, we took our table under a wall of clocks with…

Dinner at Mango Tree *

Last week the lovely Emma Inks and I went to check out the delicious food at Mango Tree in Belgravia and meant we finally had time for a long overdue catch-up! Mango Tree specialise in Thai food, and like their original restaurant in Bankok, they bring in foods from four main culinary regions: rich and mild dishes from the north, spicy food from the east, mild dishes…

36hrs in Margate

A few weekends ago we headed over to spend just under 36 hours in Margate. We left our flat at 11am and by 12.30pm we were parked up in the Dreamland car park walking to our Airbnb. There were a lot of great things to do in Margate and we really didn’t want to come home so we thought we’d share our favourite things in…
