Five things that bloggers no longer do

“I liked it before it was cool” – 3 things from my repping past that are now ridiculously on trend

Over the almost 5 years I've been rambling away on the internet, I've dropped in to the conversation once or twice that I used to be a holiday rep.

So, you've done you research (see the first post of this mini-series to find out more about that side of things) you've seen some places you like and you're ready to go out… Continue reading Buying a house – what to ask/ do during the viewing process

LIFESTYLE / Buying a house – getting started

FASHION / The love of leopard print ain’t going anywhere!

Picture the scene: you see one of your fave influencers online in the summer wearing the sassiest of jumpsuits, but it's sold out everywhere. You wait for weeks until it comes back into stock, but not in your size.
