Feeling 22



I believe Taylor Swift had it right when she claimed that 22 was 'miserable and magical'.

An Ode To The Humble Letter


Prior to 2012, I was not a frequent letter writer. I’d had the odd penpal here and there, and received the occasional letter from my Grandparents when I relocated to London for university, but it wasn’t something I regarded as important, more a quaint idea that lacked practicality in the modern world of email and texts.

Beat the Chill- Everyday Winter Favourites (Non-Beauty)



Aside from Christmas, my favourite thing about winter is coming in from the cold into the cosiness of a warm fire and a cup of tea.

Maybe this is because I’m pretty much consistently cold anyway, and as a result I usually end up spending the majority of winter under several jumpers, or permanently attached to a blanket. Here are some of my non-beauty favourites to keep cosy, pre and post-festive season-

Beat the Chill- Everyday Winter Favourites (Beauty)











December has always been my favourite month. Perhaps, unsurprisingly, this is because my birthday is right in the middle and Christmas shortly follows. However, Winter's harsh conditions can be a little wearing, and so here I’ve listed my favourite beauty products to use when you need them most. I’ve also got some non-beauty favourites, so look out for those shortly!

Another Introduction


I've just about lost count of how many times I've written a 'welcome to my blog' post. Despite having started blogging in 2009 (the year everyone seemingly began blogging), I still consider myself to be a bit of a novice. I'm also very fickle by nature, so let this serve as a warning that this site will almost definitely change its layout, font and pictures sizes on a daily bases, that is until I'm finally happy with the outcome. After writing on and off for my previous blog until around 2011, I abandoned this world with the thought that it was rather outdated , and that some of the posts I was creating were, dare I say it, a little cringe worthy. Of course after continueing to read other blogs that have gone on to become great successes, I realise I may have to quick to judge this world, and I began to remember how much I loved blogging back in the day. So I'm back, with a new URL, and a bunch of new ideas.I'll be posting on topics of beauty, fashion and outfit posts, longer written pieces, and the odd recipe. Welcome to my corner of the internet!
