A FEW FAVES

Summer is definitely a distraction these days and my posts are becoming a little bit more sporadic because sitting in front of a computer after a long day in the office is not really my ideal scenario. Seriously though, we’ve had some pretty hot days no? I’m hoping to hit the beach next week on

POST-WORK PICK ME UPS

I’m back with a quick post on some bits that I’ve treated myself to lately. I have a bad habit of popping to Boots or checking out Urban Outfitters quickly on my way home from work and I thought I’d share them! You really can’t beat Barry M for some great colours at super affordable prices and

FAVOURITE SPACES

So after throwing out a lot of old make up, jewellery and attempting to reorganise – I thought I would share some of these newly discovered spaces! The huge cupcake in the picture above is meant to be a cookie jar and was a birthday gift from a lovely friend (Hi Sally!). It stores lots of jewellery
