Spring Wardrobe Staples: The Transitional Almost-Jacket

Spring Wardrobe Staples: The Transitional Almost-Jacket

Coats again! This time some that are a little lighter than the classic leather jacket that I posted earlier in the week; flippy little things that you can throw on almost as you would a cardigan or a plaid shirt. Perfect for the end of spring when the weather can be a...

My Cheapest, Most Amazing Beauty Tips!

My Cheapest, Most Amazing Beauty Tips!

I really can't quite believe that it has taken me this long to put this video together! I suppose I thought that some things were a bit obvious, but then I realised that I had just got so used to using them that I took them for granted! Anyway, these are my six top...

The 5 Best Beauty Products: November 2018

The 5 Best Beauty Products: November 2018

Don't groan; there's another new title for my (defunct) monthly favourites that I'm testing. Basically the gist of what I'm trying to get across to people, via one lousy title that's really hard to decide on, is that these are the very best, most effective beauty...

Beauty, Fashion and Interiors Favourites: March 2018

Beauty, Fashion and Interiors Favourites: March 2018

It's safe to say this hasn't been the best month of my life; but then again, I think I said that about February, too, and I'm not sure whether March was slightly better or ever so slightly worse. So forgive me if my mind wasn't 100% attuned to remembering things to...

Beauty, Fashion and Interiors Favourites: February 2018

Beauty, Fashion and Interiors Favourites: February 2018

I've changed the format of my favourites video, you may be interested to know. After the roaring success of my 17 Most Used Beauty Products of 2017 video, I decided to make the "most used" aspect a regular feature so that you could see exactly what I've been reaching...

Autumn Skincare: The Changes I Make To My Routine

Autumn Skincare: The Changes I Make To My Routine

Last week we had my general Skincare Routine at 43, this week I’m going to tell you about my autumn skincare routine and the all-important changes I make as the weather starts to cool. Weather starts to cool. God, I’ve made autumn sound romantic, haven’t I? Who am I...

My Skincare Routine (At 43)

My Skincare Routine (At 43)

This post was supposed to be about seasonal skincare changes, but in order to provide a bit of context I started writing about my usual skincare routine and then I went off on a tangent about how I feel about my face in my forties and then about eighty-seven years...

How I Stopped My Cat From Being Sick

How I Stopped My Cat From Being Sick

  I am loathe to write this particular post about how I stopped my cat from being sick because each of the three times I’ve attempted it, in the past six or so months, my cat has immediately gone and puked. Writing about him not puking seems to be an instant...

The Uniqlo Ribbed Sleeveless Bra Top

The Uniqlo Ribbed Sleeveless Bra Top

Last week I bought one of the absolute best things I’ve bought all year. I genuinely don’t know what I was doing with my life before I had it. And the most amazing thing is that this purchase happened as a result of my own complete ineptitude: through self-created...

How Not To Be A Supermodel: Exclusive Extract

How Not To Be A Supermodel: Exclusive Extract

Here’s an extract from my book, How Not to be a Supermodel. It’s taken from a chapter about model castings and the physical/sporting skills I lied about having in order to try and bag some work. Could I play the drums, for example? Sure: Was I a pro-level ice-skater?...

Mid-Length Hair: Is It Ever Perfect?

Mid-Length Hair: Is It Ever Perfect?

Is there anyone - anyone in the world - who procrastinates more than somebody who has mid-length hair but can’t decide whether to cut it or grow it? Jeepers creepers. It’s like a curse! Catch me with my hair at any length that ends between jawline and shoulder and I...

Laser Eye Surgery: I Have Questions

Laser Eye Surgery: I Have Questions

Last summer I had laser eye surgery to correct my vision and essentially free me from my daily routine of having to switch between three different pairs of glasses. I know that it has taken me an absolute age to write about it, but I wanted to get a few little queries...
