I’ve had a busy (but hugely enjoyable!) week and am now suffering with mouth ulcers and an IBS flare up, serves me right really. I always get mouth ulcers when i’m about to get ill or am just run down and tired, so today is all about staying under the patchwork quilt and hoping that… Read More
I have a slight addiction to lip balm. I have at least 4 on the go at any one time; by the bed, in the living room, in my handbag and in the car as minimum generally! I always seem to have dry lips, even in the summer so need to apply liberally at… Read More

On Wednesday last week I was invited to the Habitat A/W 2014 press day at the Oxo Tower Wharf on London’s south bank. There was such an amazing array of styles and items, definitely something for everyone. I took lots of photos, but have whittled them down to my favourite few for this post! … Read More
Book reviews of some of the books I read in May & June! Click for other book related posts. The Forgotten Daughter – Renita D’Silva A book as part of the Bahlsen Book Club. At first glance I thought it might be a ‘real life sob story’ (which tend to be badly written and not much fun… Read More
