Sunday Tittle Tattle: The Pregnancy Diaries

Sunday Tittle Tattle: The Pregnancy Diaries

After many weeks of writing-up I have finally caught up with my Pregnancy Diaries on The Uphill and am reporting "live" on all of my baby-growing joys and woes. Warning: sometimes there's a little too much information you may form mental images of me that you can...

The Pregnancy Diaries: 25 Weeks

How magnificent! I've finally caught up with the pregnancy diaries. I'm writing this live, not typing up something from my iPhone notes that feels as though it was written in the prehistoric times. I can moan away and know that you're seeing it instantly and that...

The Pregnancy Diaries: 23 Weeks

This week has been mainly dominated with my concern for my C-Section scar and my irritation levels about the fact that all of my underwear seems to be slipping down from my bump and creasing in the exact place that the scar is. It's not comfortable at all. I now know...

Clinique Superbalanced Foundation Review

Clinique Superbalanced Foundation Review

Goodness, I've really tried with this foundation, but this review is, I should warn you, something of a mixed bag. I've seen so many glowing reviews of Clinique's Superbalanced Makeup online and so, when I first "dug in" (literally, see below for full explanation) I...

The Pregnancy Diaries: 21 Weeks

Oooh, where have I been? Naughty naughty diary writer! I must be feeling better, as I've stopped writing down all of my moans and gripes. I'm only back to tell you all about my stomach issues... I've had such BAD runs (the D-word - can never spell it anyway) and pains...

Palpitations: The Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar

Palpitations: The Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar

I promised myself that I wouldn't write about any more beauty advent calendars - I could keep going for weeks, and by that time they will have all sold out and I'll have calendar fatigue and I won't have had time to write about anything like skincare or foundation or...

The Pregnancy Diaries: 17 Weeks

I'm pretty sure I've been feeling some movements for the last couple of days. I can't be entirely sure whether it's just digestion but I remember thinking the same thing last time (quite a bit later) and then just knowing that there was something different about the...

Makeup Treasure: The Modern Mercury Highlighter

Makeup Treasure: The Modern Mercury Highlighter

In my original review post and video review of the Victoria Beckham makeup collection for Estee Lauder I mentioned that my top pick, if you were going to buy one item, would probably be the Modern Mercury Highlighter. Sort of risky to recommend it, really, as it was...

Pregnancy Tops: Stripes Ahoy!

A male friend asked me the other day why so many pregnancy garments were printed with horizontal stripes. (Actually a female friend asked me this too. It seems to be a common query.) "Isn't the rule supposed to be that the fatter you are, the more you step away from...

The Deep Sleep Super Double-Barrelled Mega-Spray

The Deep Sleep Super Double-Barrelled Mega-Spray

Beauty brand This Works couldn't improve on the knock-you-into-oblivion perfection that is the Deep Sleep Pillow Spray, and so they made a slightly longer-lasting version, Sleep Plus Pillow Spray, that sort of refreshed its scent powers throughout the night to keep...

The Pregnancy Diaries: Week 16

[Note: as I type up this diary entry I am 25 weeks pregnant. At this rate, I'll only catch up once the baby is born! So I'm going to try and get up to speed over the course of the next few days - sorry if it's pregnancy diary overload.] I can honestly say that I think...

Bumps, Facials and Exciting New Money

Bumps, Facials and Exciting New Money

A vlog for you, this time following seemingly random events plucked out of my life over a two week period. I need to get better at this vlogging thing but there are two obstacles in my way: I don't get out much, and I feel like a total dick if anyone sees me vlogging....
