FASHION & BEAUTY/ YouTube made me buy it…

I've enjoyed watching a few of these videos lately, so I thought I'd jump on the tag and share my own social media- influenced purchases. There's probably a lot more than I'll chat about here!

LIFESTLYE & BLOGGING/ Little tools, big help

Oh heyyyyy there...long time no see! Honestly, I've had a bit of a rough start to 2017 for health reasons (I won't bore you with these here) which has made it tricky to formulate life at times, let alone blog posts, so thank you for taking the time to read after such a long absence!… Continue reading LIFESTLYE & BLOGGING/ Little tools, big help

Cards on the table - kept eating the goods, kept forgetting to take the snaps...but surely it's a good thing that I enjoyed them that much??Summed up in a sentence: Hoots* are the BEST alternative to crisps I've tasted.

2017 Week 2- developing a plan to take over the world, one post at a time…and an OOTD fail (kinda)

I decided to try and tackle my lack of confidence and blogging mojo this week, for which I turned to Courtney. As you may have read in some of posts in 2016, Courtney and I founded the Hull Foodie project as an offshoot of the Hull Bloggers collective that we're both actively involved in.

2017 Week 1 – what do I want this year to be about?

                 I've been pretty clear in my head that I'm not making any 'New Year's Resolutions' for 2017. However, what I do want to do is review where I am in my life and make steps to improve it in the long term. That may sound no different,… Continue reading 2017 Week 1 – what do I want this year to be about?
