A quick post today because I am writing this on Easter Sunday, when strictly speaking I should be trying to talk my kids down from their rampant sugar-high. One of them is currently gyrating to the Wonka soundtrack, the other has filled up a water pistol and is...
Five February Favourites, including the very timely rediscovery of an absolute skincare marvel and an incredible book of short stories. But let's start with the boots I've fallen for. Oh, the boots. If I told you that I'd been searching high and low for the perfect...
January "favourites" and what an eclectic mix we have going on here! Family photo albums, rubber stamps and a stand-up show that will have you chortling away and wishing for more. As per monthly favourites tradition, there's a video to accompany this post - it's right...
A quick little beauty post to break up the contact lens content. I mean, I'm verging on becoming an eye blogger at this point. There are two or three posts on laser eye surgery to come yet and who knows what eye-related things I'll find to write about after that?...
It's favourites time, but this time they're supercharged. The first favourite thing has changed my life and I'm not being dramatic and clickbait-y about it, either; the second favourite is a book that had me audibly cheering as I read it (in just two sittings) in bed...

Featuring 5 favourites for October – beauty, fashion and home favourites. A Hush jumper, lamp, eyeshadow palette and book – reviewed for you! I'm back with this month's favourite things, including (spoiler alert) the best book I've read this year, a rather festive...
Featuring 5 favourites for September – beauty, fashion and home favourites. An M&S cardigan, bathroom storage, lipstick and scent – reviewed for you! Hurrah, top marks for me, please, because I've managed to do the monthly favourites in the month they were the...
My 5 beauty & fashion favourites for August include some boots for stomping in, a dress for vamping in and a face cream that moisturises so deeply it's slightly unnerving. Watch the video below if you fancy listening to me chatting through my favourites or carry...
Featuring this month's 5 beauty and lifestyle favourites! Please excuse the random, disorganised, wasp-infested start and the filming conditions in this month's favourites video: firstly a wasp came in to the bedroom (probably trying to escape the building dust in the...
