My summer skincare routine is here and it's slightly juicier than usual because a couple of months ago I had to do an almost unprecedented SOS u-turn on my whole beauty routine. I know you're ready to hear about it. We all love a bit of a disaster. Actually it...
Fancy a quick blast through the beauty things that have wowed me recently? Well buckle up, team, this is going to be quite the ride! I'm exaggerating, obviously, because it's just a post about beauty favourites so there are never going to be any significant potholes...
I had to pull a whole live tick out of my child's face last week and I'll be having nightmares for months. In fact if you have a phobia of insecty things, or if the idea of minor medical procedures being performed by a non-professional makes you edgy, then it's...
Last week I found myself unexpectedly perving over King Triton's torso whilst watching The Little Mermaid II with my kids. Which was something of a surprise, even to myself. A cartoon character - who knew? As he waggled his way into shot, I was taken aback by the...
Here are the June favourites, which means that I'm finally getting there with my admin catch-up! I'm going to keep this blurb short and sweet because quite a lot of the video is taken up by a review of some "period pants" and I'm doing a whole other post on those...
I was going to order some little vintage side tables last week but the delivery time, from the Netherlands, was estimated at 4-5 weeks. Considering that the tables are already made - they are secondhand - what in heaven's name mode of transport could possible take 4-5...
I completely forgot to post up my May Favourites video and when I gave it a quick once over to see what it was all about, because May feels like a century ago, it was like travelling back through time. Travelling back to an era when I hadn't hacked off my own hair...
Let's get down to business, in the words of Captain Li Shang from Mulan. (Can you tell I've overdone it on the Disney+ channel binging? There's no Disney stone left unturned in this house. As well as devouring the classics, we've watched every prequel and sequel, some...
I am writing this whilst leaning back - reasonably heavily - on my cat cushion. Not a feather-stuffed, velvet-covered cat cushion, mind: it's a real life cat cushion. Living and breathing. Slightly more supportive than an inanimate one, if you must know. And the...
I'm offline for a couple of weeks after this post - I'm working on something magnificent and it requires my full concentration. I'm sure that you can all survive a fortnight without my ridiculous posts on nipples, orifices and social distancing problems, but as a...
Here's a post that will please your purse (Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers!): three brilliant skincare products that form a very good, albeit very basic skincare routine, and the whole thing comes in at less than twenty pounds. I did film this for IGTV...
After twelve weeks of complete isolation I decided to go to the post office to do some urgent returns. (I actually had to send back some clothes I had ordered and never unboxed. Because who needs clothes in a lockdown? Not I, apparently. Apart from a few special...
