25.08.2014- Beauty Buys: Neal's Yard Remedies Organic Argan Oil
One of the things which I enjoyed the most about my trip to Morocco in February was paying a visit to an amazing Argan Oil co-operative. You might remember from my travel diary that I loved finding out about the process of extracting and making Argan Oil products, as well as meeting the lovely wom…
24.08.2014- What I Wore Today #199
Remember that spell of sweltering heat which we had about three weeks or so ago? I know, I know, it seems like a distant memory amid a distinctly chilly end to August (winter is coming!), and I'm sure at the time I would have been grumbling about how impossible public transport is during a hea…
19.08.2014- Day Tripping: Royal Childhood at Buckingham Palace
A few weeks ago, along with Sarah, I was lucky enough to pay a visit to Buckingham Palace for a very special preview of the latest exhibition to take up residence in The State Rooms. You might remember that last year, I got a chance to have a glimpse of The Queen's Coronation installation befo…
17.08.2014- Beauty Buys: Benefit They're Real! Push Up Liner
Like most people in life, there are some things which I like to think I'm pretty good at (eating biscuits, making tea and being able to endlessly quote Game of Thrones being my top three talents at the moment), but at the grand old age of twenty four, I've resigned myself to the fact that …

07.08.2014- Beauty Buys: Laura Mercier Foundation Primer
When it comes to skincare, recently I've been waxing lyrical about some of my favourite day to day products, as well as a tidy little collection of classics, and, over the last few weeks, I've discovered a new daily staple. Long time readers will be well aware that I'm a bit of a long …
05.08.2014- My Month in Pictures: July
Another month has whizzed by and once again I find myself completely befuddled about how quickly time has been passing. To me August has always felt like the end of summer in earnest- and it's probably quite bad that I'm already counting down the days until the start of September- if only …
03.08.2014- What I Wore Today #197
Although this week has been a little bit cooler in London (the jeans are back out!), it's still a little bit stifling- particularly on the Tube. As I've mentioned in a few posts before, when it's summer in the city I tend to live in comfortable basics, and, in lieu of being able to lea…
