My Hair Through The Years
It’s hair week here at Cocktails in Teacups! This week I’ll be bringing you hair related posts, well the hair on your head anyway. I figured it was a good theme because although I am rubbish at styling my hair, despite dying it monthly, my hair is in great condition and grows like wildfire, so I must know something, right? I have some product reviews, some information posts, DIY and finally some link ups to some of my favourite hair related posts on other blogs, so hopefully there is something for everyone.. I understand not everyone reads my blog for beauty but I really just want to book end all…

Recipe No.10 Pear & Prosciutto Salad
Firstly, after the dismal reaction to my Weekly Wardrobe this week, I’ve decided to drop it and just do odd outfits when I photograph them. I’ve had some tips as to take better photos so hopefully they’ll be improved when I do post them. Secondly, I think you should all give my bestie’s blog a follow. Journeys are my Diary. She’s been doing the #BEDM challenge and has really thrown herself into it. I have 250+ followers, and although I’m not sure everyone reads, I know at least some are into lifestyle which is what her blog is. Thirdly, this is a summer recipe. I prepped it when it looked…

North East Lush Event
As I’ve mentioned time and time again, Lush is one of my favourite brands for when it comes to bath products. I bought my first ever bath ballistic when I was 17, so for any of you interested, that is now 8 years ago! It was the infamous Fairy Jasmine (if you’re a fan of Ross Noble, you’ll know exactly why I’ve called in infamous!) Ever since, I’ve been hooked on their bath products and I always have a decent size supply stashed away. ANYWAY.. as soon as I heard there was going to be an event held at the Metro Centre branch of Lush, organised by Danny of Adventures…

#130 Matched by Ally Condie Review
Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander’s face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is her ideal mate… until she sees Ky Markham’s face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black. The Society tells her it’s a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she’s destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can’t stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society’s infallibility and is faced with an…

Where Amy Ate – Gourmet Burger Kitchen, Metro Centre
As most of you know, tonight is Game of Thrones night so I just don’t have time to do my lovely big ass post about yesterdays North East Lush Event (which was fantastic by the way, so stay tuned!) So instead I bring you two smaller posts. One is the second part in my Where Amy Ate (this one) and the other is a book I started yesterday and finished today. Neither require a lot of editing photos which for me is the most time consuming part of putting a post together. Before the North East Lush Event, a few of us bloggers decided to meet before hand and go…

All The Colours of the Rainbow
So my Weekly Wardrobe posts have now become whatever i’m wearing on Friday posts due to feeling pretty unphotogenic lately. I want to blame the light and the fact I am rubbish at taking selfies.. but in all honesty, I just don’t think I photograph well! I’m hoping when I get into my new house (whenever that is) I’ll have better places to do outfit posts because I do enjoy keeping track of what I’ve been wearing! As you are aware, last week I took part in the Blog Sale Extravaganza with some other bloggers (and if you don’t know, go check it out, loads left!) I wasn’t just wanting…
