My Sentimental Heart

Last day of January klaxon!!!! At long last, here we are at what seems to have been one of the longest months ever, am I right?! In the midst of Blue Monday this and Dry January that, it's easy to feel a bit overwhelmed by the start of the year, particularly if you've been drawing up lists…

Whilst I'm a definite magpie in terms of collecting accessories, over recent months (and in the interest of have a good old fashioned de-clutter!), I've been streamlining some of my jewellery box gems. I don't know whether it's the time of the year, but there's something quite …

In my book, you can't beat a burst of florals to welcome in the spring. Whilst, in the immortal words of Miranda Priestly, they may not be groundbreaking, there's no doubt that they're a real seasonal failsafe, and are perfect for pepping up transitional favourites too. One of my favou…

With my resolution to read more (and also to break the awful habit which I have of starting a book only to leave it lying around unfinished..) well and truly underway, one of the tomes which I've found myself regularly reaching for since the start of the year is #GIRLBOSS by Sophia Amoruso, a …

I don't know about you, but one of the colours which the mere mention of January seems to conjure up in my mind is blue. In my case, largely blue fingers and toes thanks to the drop in temperature (brr!), but also blue in the sense that this time of the year really isn't my favourite (I pr…

At this time of the year, it can be tricky to make resolutions which are realistic to stick to. Let's be honest, trying to give up chocolate when there are still festive selection boxes lurking about the house is more or less impossible. Living on nothing but salad and fresh air in the middle …

With all the hubbub and humdrum which the start of a new year brings with it, there's no doubt that things can get pretty stressful. Whether you're settling into a new fitness routine, are struggling to adjust to getting back into the swing of things after the Christmas break, or are just …

In my book, one of the most versatile wardrobe weapons which you can have in your arsenal is the humble shirt. It's a piece which is up there with staples like jeans and the trench coat in terms of sheer go-to versatility, and in an effort to concoct the perfect capsule wardrobe, I've well…

Oh January, January, January. I've tried. Believe me, I've tried- but I've more or less resigned myself to the fact that you and I are never going to be the best of friends. Battling through the post birthday/post Christmas and back to doing something other than sitting in front of the…

If you're determined that 2015 is one which is going to be filled with fitness and healthy living, then the chances are that you'll have already hit the ground running (whether literally or metaphorically). I've posted in the past about how I came to love running, and three years later…

Having only gingerly dipped my toe into a spot of sales shopping over the last couple of weeks, I'm itching to invest in a few top quality treats ahead of the arrival of spring. Whilst it's no secret around these parts that I'm a little bit addicted to Whistles, I've been avoiding …

If one of your resolutions for the year ahead is to get a little bit more reading under your belt, then you're definitely not alone. I'm determined that this year I'm going to knuckle down and rediscover how much I enjoy getting lost in a good book, whether that be on the train to work…

I feel like a bit of a broken record in the sense that I feel like I've been complaining about the fact that it's winter for an absolute eternity (Happy New Year by the way!), but this one really seems to be dragging its heels doesn't it? I'm already ticking off the days until the …
