Myth buster- You don't have to wear an outlandish outfit to prove you're not a Grinch! Being festive is about finding your own holiday traditions that make you happy and excited, and I say it's kinda nice to have a bit of festive wear tucked away under your trousers/boots that only you know about. Someone… Continue reading BLOGMAS day 8: Subtle festive fashion touches

Caramelised… Continue reading BLOGMAS day 6: Cheese! Ideas for your festive cheeseboard
BLOGMAS day 5: Festive films I watch every year
I stole this cosy film setup from Pinterest because - we don't have our Christmas tree up yet, we're currently in a rented flat so don't have the space or freedom to decorate, and I don't have a cute doggy to snuggle up to (yet. I'm confident the Mr will cave someday). No matter where… Continue reading BLOGMAS day 5: Festive films I watch every year

BLOGMAS day 3:Old House Hull (2017)
I thought since I'm posting this #blogmas entry on a Sunday, a #sundaylunch post was quite appropriate! I last posted about Old House in April 2016 (read the post here) when I went for an impromptu date night with the Mr, so we already knew the food was yummy. This is lovely little gastro pub… Continue reading BLOGMAS day 3:Old House Hull (2017)
BLOGMAS day 2: Tea-sons greetings!
I thoroughly enjoy a good pun! Gotta be honest though, this one was borrowed from the good folks at Bluebird Tea co. who this post is mostly centred on. I was introduced to the brand last year during #blogmas so it seemed pretty appropriate to include them! Candle, B&M (I highly recommend them for amazing smells at great value.… Continue reading BLOGMAS day 2: Tea-sons greetings!

My friend Pippa recently put a call out on Facebook - she's expanding her photography/design business and was looking for people to help build up her portfolio. I got it touch and said "you can shoot some stuff for my blog, if you like" and she said "yeah, that sounds great." Oh crap. I've… Continue reading FASHION/ Jenny Chat 2.0
TRAVEL DIARIES/ Benidorm uncovered – why it can be a great place to visit.
That's right, you read the title of this post correctly - however you won't be reading about drunken antics, lairy behaviour or any other cliches you may have seen/heard! I've only ever seen one blog post about Benidorm which, coincidentally, was as I was getting ready to write this one. I suspect this is because… Continue reading TRAVEL DIARIES/ Benidorm uncovered – why it can be a great place to visit.
