We're now more than halfway through the year, wowzers! Way back in January I set myself 5 goals for 2018 (read the original post here) so this post is an update of how those are going - what has been ticked off, what needs a little more work and what's next... Find a new home… Continue reading LIFESTYLE / 5 Things for 2018: an update
BEAUTY/ Skincare saviours: helping my face to get its groove back
Over the past few months I’ve noticed that my face has become increasingly ‘muddy’ and that my skin has generally not been looking it’s best at all. I put some of this down to the stress of starting a new job and moving home but, now things have started to settle down I feel as… Continue reading BEAUTY/ Skincare saviours: helping my face to get its groove back
FASHION & BEAUTY / Post birthday haul (2018)
After the birthday celebrations comes... the spending of more money! I was lucky enough to get a bit of money for my birthday too so, coupled with some of my own, I hit ASOS and Harvey Nichols hard. There were a lot more things as part of this haul, mainly fashion, however they've had to… Continue reading FASHION & BEAUTY / Post birthday haul (2018)
FASHION / Summers days into nights
The weather's warmer (at last!) and the social calendar is getting more busy with weddings, christenings, summer parties and basically any excuse to go out for some drinks. So then us ladies get to the same tired ass dilemma we have every single time (I'm generalising) - what to frickin' wear?? I had the said… Continue reading FASHION / Summers days into nights
FASHION, FOOD & FUN/ What I got and did for my Birthday (2018)
"You've got to grab 35 by the balls and say 'hey, world, I'm 35!'" Samantha Jones, Sex and the City (2001) I don't quite have Samantha's confidence in ageing, but I hope someday I will! For now I'd simply like to share the positivity of my latest birthday, which is the wonderful thought and gifts… Continue reading FASHION, FOOD & FUN/ What I got and did for my Birthday (2018)
BEAUTY/ My microblading experience
I have rubbish eyebrows. I was one of the infamous 90s over pluckers (I was 12 and there was nobody around to educate us tweens properly back then) in addition to this I kind of 'play' with my brows as a kind of comfort mechanism which is made them extra crazy and sparse. I'm also… Continue reading BEAUTY/ My microblading experience
LIFESTYLE/ 20 years since Sex and the City: how relevant is it today?
I first saw Sex and the City when I was about 18, and last year I made a pilgrimage to Carrie Bradshaw's famous stoop whilst on holiday in New York City. Even at the age of 34, 16 years later, I was beyond excited to pay it a visit. Although I'm asking this question as… Continue reading LIFESTYLE/ 20 years since Sex and the City: how relevant is it today?
FASHION/ Love and rainbows
This entire setup is giving all the #pride feels but I swear it's pure coincidence that this is Pride month...no seriously, I'm not clever enough to plan it! If any tee was ever begging for a back shot, it was this one! I hadn't actually realised it had the lips on when I picked it… Continue reading FASHION/ Love and rainbows
FASHION, BEAUTY & LIFESTLYE/ My birthday wish list (2018)
It's almost that time of year again....I really like birthdays, but this year I'm feel a bit oversensitive about getting older. Ugh. So I've put together a few things I've had my eye on lately, hopefully one or two of them will end up in my hot little hands come 21 June! 1. Oliver Bonas… Continue reading FASHION, BEAUTY & LIFESTLYE/ My birthday wish list (2018)
LIFESTYLE/ I tried Boom Bod, and this is what happened…
My name is Jenny Chat and I'll buy things I see online with very little thought other than "ooh wow, yes please!" My latest impulse purchase came in the form of the latest 'weight loss aid' Boom Bod, promoted by reality stars and US Instagram stars. For 7 days you take a small 'shot' (blackcurrant… Continue reading LIFESTYLE/ I tried Boom Bod, and this is what happened…
