Lush Solid Perfumes: Review

August 4, 2014

This post was originally written as a guest post for Bel's blog several months ago but with me going away I thought I would share it with my own readers! This is about one of the lesser discussed Lush products, their solid perfume range.  As much as well all love a bath bomb I thought I would choose something different to talk about today to mix things up a bit! I had been trying to choose a perfume for quite a while but nothing really stood out to me, I've had lots of different READ the POST

Southend-on-Sea

August 1, 2014

Myself and Harry went to explore Southend-on-Sea last weekend after deciding we wanted a day out at the seaside.  We chose Southend because it was the closest to where Harry lives and has the reputation of being the quintessential British seaside town.  So despite the terrible forecast, we took off to check out the sights. We got lucky and it was actually a really hot day!  It looked just like we were abroad and I was really surprised by Southend-on-Sea.  It wasn't nearly READ the POST

Manchester Bloggers Meet: July 2014

July 28, 2014

Saturday marked my second ever blog meet, and the first one where I didn't know anyone!  I saw on twitter that Nicole, Alice and Emily were meeting people at the train station so I met up with them so that at least if I got lost, I wasn't alone!  We managed to find our way to the Milton Club without much trouble.  This is a members only club and it is stunning!  However it's yellow lighting really made my photo's hard to work with as you can tell!  I even treat myself to a mango collada which READ the POST

99p fashion sale (an I’m selling some beauty stuff too)

July 27, 2014

source   After having a pile of clothes, shoes and accessories lined up in my room for months I have finally bitten the bullet and put it all on ebay.  I did intend to do this as a blog sale but in the end this was the easiest option.  This almost means that almost everything I am getting rid of is starting at the super low price of 99p!  Take a look here. I am also getting rid of some beauty products, which I have added to a facebook group.  You can find what I am selling here ( You READ the POST

Two of my favourite shop's have discount codes this weekend, so after taking advantage of them myself I thought I would pass them on to my readers! First up, one of my very favourite make up brands Illamasqua has 20% off everything on their online store to celebrate them reaching 200,000 likes on Facebook.  Just enter code 200KFB at the checkout.  I have already jumped on and re-bought my skin base foundation as my current one is starting to run low.Next, Soho's Clothing is READ the POST

Booking a food tour with Get Your Guide is quickly becoming a staple of my trips!  I love that I can get so many local foods tried as well as learning about the history and culture and the food is always excellent.  It’s especially great when I’m doing a city break and short on time!  Let me know your Italian faves!
