A Lot of Favourites 

Yes, the mug really does have coffee in it. Multitasking. So, I thought I would share everything I have loved this year, everything from the very minimal amount of makeup I have used, the skincare which I have used lots of, and everything else which has caught my eye.

How is it the end of another year? 

The last month of the year, so it makes sense to share everything I have been loving the past month... 

Edinburgh Zoo: Lost Worlds #GiantLanterns



A Fun Family Day... 

Such an incredible day out at Edinburgh Zoo with the family - so I thought I would share the snaps. It was pretty incredible! The work and skill which must have gone into it is amazing - a joy to see. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the area :) 

Cheesy RomCom Christmas Movies You Just NEED To Watch

Cheesy RomCom Christmas Movies You Just NEED To Watch, hallmark, prime, netflix, films,

Just in case you don't follow me on Twitter or Instagram... I REALLY love Christmas movies. Especially Rom Coms, and ESPECIALLY cheesy ones which make me doubt my single, empowering women status. The movies where boys are tough and girls "change" them. Oh, the shame. BUT,  I just cannot get enough of them - so here are my favourites. For me, there is a tickbox list of cheesy romcom boxes that must be ticked for me to be happiest. The best people at hitting all the right boxes for me is Hallmark - they are the experts on Cheesy Crap Movies.

I just love Shay & Blue 

I have been in love with my first bottle of Shay & Blue since it arrived back in June, the Blood Oranges scent is incredible - and I have worn it constantly. As Shay & Blue impressed me so much with their first bottle, of course, I was curious to see if their other scents would be as good. Needless to say, they did not disappoint. Their Black Tulip fragrance is just incredible.

So why not check out the range and pop a few key items onto your Santa list - they do travel size and gift packs, perfect to try before a full-size commitment.
