My Sentimental Heart

Although I still feel a tiny bit tentative, I think it's safe to say that spring seems to have sprung! Whilst the temperatures might not have sky rocketed and we've still got the prospect of April showers on the horizon, it's lovely to have extended evenings and to see things coming ba…

Happy Easter! If you're using the long weekend as an excuse to eat your own body weight in chocolate you've well and truly come to the right place. If you've got lots of Easter Eggs going spare, then this recipe is the perfect option, and it's a great one to try if you're looki…

Brunch dates are always the sort of occasions which I look forward to the most, particularly if they involve trying out somewhere new for the first time. A few weeks ago, accompanied by Lily, Sophie and Hannah, I popped along to Foxlow in Clerkenwell- a dining destination which has been on my rada…

When it comes to weekend dressing, I'm a firm believer that jeans and a basic shirt are the bread and butter of a relaxed wardrobe. As I've grown that little bit older (26 going on 86..!), I've realised more than ever that comfort is king- and that there's nothing worse than being …

If you're looking for a chance to ring the changes, spring is, without a doubt, the perfect opportunity. Whether you're sprucing up your wardrobe or overhauling your beauty buying, there's something about the change in seasons which is synonymous with switching things up. Over the last…

Although the temperatures are slowly but surely climbing a little bit further day by day, the weather is still unpredictable enough to warrant wrapping up in a coat. Whilst I'm itching to leave the house in fewer and fewer layers, the days of jackets and bare arms seem to be a little way off y…

With Easter just around the corner, I'm sure I'm not the only one eagerly anticipating a long weekend and plenty of indulgence! Even if you're not overly partial to a chocolate egg (or twelve), there are plenty of other options to get experimenting with, whether you're a hot cross …

Now that spring is in full swing, it will probably come as no surprise to hear that I'm happily festooning myself in some of my favourite florals- rummaging through my wardrobe to find some old favourites as well as shopping around for some new styles. Florals for spring might not be *groundbr…

Regular readers will be well aware that I'm always on the lookout for new foodie finds, and over the last few weeks I've been exploring some previously undiscovered gems, both on my lunch break and after work. It's always lovely to have the option to take time to find some new foodie f…

Now that winter is well and truly on the way out, I'm sure I'm not the only one who can't wait to spruce up my beauty stash with some new spring essentials. Whether it's some new nail hues, floral fragrances or a make up must-have, there's something about prospect of a whole (h…

Whilst the majority of the time, my usual lunch is a case of picking up a speedy sandwich, it's occasionally lovely to take a much needed, more leisurely sit down over some serious sustenance. Working in the heart of central London, I really am spoilt for choice when it comes to everyday eats, …

Yesterday, I was lucky enough to be invited along to Cath Kidston's beautiful flagship store in the heart of picture perfect Piccadilly for a very special crafting workshop ahead of Mother's Day tomorrow. Hosted by the incredibly talented Susan Beech of A Petal Unfolds, the event was all a…

Now that we've arrived at the beginning of March, I'm sure I'm not the only one eager to inject a splash of spring into my wardrobe. Although I'm not throwing caution entirely to the wind in terms of letting go of my winter layers, I've been eagerly sifting through my selection…

Another month down! This last one has well and truly flown by, and now it feels like we're headed towards spring proper. The evenings have already started to get lighter which is wonderful, and I'm sure I'm not the only one excited about the prospect of (hopefully!) leaving the cold we…
