Who Needs a Bedside Table Anyway?

Who Needs a Bedside Table Anyway?

I am without a beside table. Have been for quite some time. In fact if you follow me on Instagram then you'll remember this photo from weeks ago - it's of one of my Ercol vintage kitchen chairs being used as a makeshift book-and-vase stand. Rather more attractive than...

Glycolic Peel Pads: The Thirty Day Challenge | AD

Glycolic Peel Pads: The Thirty Day Challenge | AD

Most of you know that my love affair with acid exfoliants - in particular glycolic acid - is fairly long-standing. I like the ease with which an AHA exfoliant (for that is what it is, if you want the fancy name) slips into your skincare routine and I especially like...

Domes of Elounda: The Haute Living Holiday (With Kids)

Domes of Elounda: The Haute Living Holiday (With Kids)

When Mr AMR and I first had Angelica, we vowed never to take a holiday abroad for at least five years. Just getting to Sainsbury's was enough of a faff - getting her into the car seat, getting her out again for a feed and a change, stopping for another feed halfway...

All The Places I Wore This Dress

All The Places I Wore This Dress

I was looking through my photo library trying to find a picture of myself holding an avocado (don't ask) when I noticed that I've been wearing the same Hush dress* for about a month. It's the easiest, comfiest summer dress of the year so far - basically an oversized...

My Favourite Beach-In-A-Bottle Fragrances

My Favourite Beach-In-A-Bottle Fragrances

I'm really in the mood for a bit of high-summer fragrance, at the moment. I think it's because we keep getting these little pockets of surprise hot weather; one day it's drizzly and grim and then the next it's absolutely baking and you have to pop inside to put...

My Three Key Hair Styles | AD

My Three Key Hair Styles | AD

The smell of Elnett hairspray is the smell of my twenties. The smell of my entire modelling career, really, wherever in the world it has taken me. Because I can't think of many photoshoots I've been at where there hasn't been a cloud of Elnett escaping through the...

The High Street Mascara with High-End Performance

The High Street Mascara with High-End Performance

Last week I wrote about my non-surgical eye lift revelation which was, probably to many people's disappointment, simply the power of a good mascara. No trickery, no miracle-promising skincare ingredients, just simple lash definition and a bit of lift at the roots to...

A Tour of my Kitchen

A Tour of my Kitchen

  "Tour" is a bit of a grand word to use, isn't it, for what amounts to a quickish snoop around the room that I cook and eat in, but there we go. It's a thing, online, apparently. House tour, office tour, tour of my makeup kit, bathroom cabinet tour, tour of my...

Bikini Horrors and The Miraclesuit

Bikini Horrors and The Miraclesuit

Before I went on holiday (yes, the holiday post is coming up, I'm still recovering from the night-flight-with-toddler-and-baby) I bought a load of bikinis and swimming costumes from Figleaves so that I could try them on in the relative comfort of my own home....

The Non-Surgical Eye Lift

The Non-Surgical Eye Lift

OK, you have to bear with me here, because the revelation that follows is so unbelievably obvious I'm almost embarrassed to post about it. What we have here isn't some new-fangled eye cream ingredient or a fancy, muscle-toning massage move. It's not an optical...

5 Most Used Beauty Products: April 2018

5 Most Used Beauty Products: April 2018

Brain like a sieve... I filmed this video weeks ago and forgot to upload it; my five most-used beauty products for April 2018. A gorgeous healthy-glow foundation (see the full review here), possibly the world's most expensive bronzer, an anti-wrinkle treatment that...
