We’re All The Boss with GiffGaff, My Boss Story
When I was contacted earlier this month about the We’re All The Boss campaign by GiffGaff, I was instantly on board as I think it will make such an interesting lifestyle blog post. For the first time in my whole life, I am 100% my own boss. Not just in regards to working from home, but I control my life completely. This is a huge deal for me and at first I was terrified I’d hate it, hate having no one else to make decisions for me.. but I have to admit, I love it. Before this home I had a home with a boyfriend, then an ex student rental…

Lincoln Blogger Meet 21st June 2014
If you follow my best friend Bee over at Journeys are my Diary, you’ll already be well aware of this. But in case you don’t, I’m here to fill you in. In less than a months time, Bee and I are going to be holding a blogger meet in my old haunt, Lincoln! I thought that I best share this with all my readers in case any of them wish to join us. And to let you all into a little bit on what our lovely attendees will be getting up to while they’re there. First off, as you now know it will be in Lincoln. Aside from my hometown,…

National Best Friends Day
My “to write” posts are really getting on top of me at the moment, so expect a couple of days next week to have two! However ever today, since it’s National Best Friends day, I had to bring you all another post about my wonderful friends, in particular, my best friends. I know I’ve wrote a few posts about my best friends, or at least, I’ve included them in a lot of my more personal posts, but sometimes just feel like I need to give them a shout out for being so awesome. Originally Bee and I were going to do a guest post swap, but I completely forgot today…

Two Years On
I had another kind of post planned for tonight but as I’m feeling sort of melancholy and I’m waiting on LM to fall asleep before I sneak up for a bath, I wanted to write about something that has been in the forefront of my mind for the past couple of weeks. Not dominating or anything, but there, that little niggle. Two years ago last week I text my best friend to come and get me. Two years since I walked away from a domestically abusive relationship. It’s still hard to say, sometimes I barely even believe it was me it happened to. You hear all those stories but you…

Insta-Month May
Quesadillas for Cinco de Mayo // Ariel inspired look // Teapigs Tea at Bloggers Teaspoon Second Crown & Glory Mystery Box // My Princess Pendent Necklace from DYO Fabulous Jewellery // My gorgeous canvas from Red Canvas Ltd Sleeping Beauty Castle selfie // Harry Potter-ed up // With my bestie Bee, there are too few photos of us! The highlights were… Uhh Disneyland Paris, obviously. It was beyond amazing. Looking forward to blogging all about it. Seeing my best friend Bee twice, once for Eurovision and once this weekend past where we went to the Harry Potter Studios Tour and endured (yes, endured) the funniest, filthiest Murder Mystery to date!…

Paul Mitchell Neuro Styling Event in Newcastle
So yesterday I was kindly invited to one of the Gary Hedley Salons for the Paul Mitchell Intelligent Styling Event. I haven’t been to an actual even since last year and so far only two blog meets so needless to say, I was excited. I met up with a few other bloggers at the entrance to Eldon Square before we all nervously headed down to the salon, not really knowing what to expect. It was a really intimate event and we were welcomed warmly. Instantly supplied with drinks and offered canapes. There were a few bloggers there I recognised but we were surrounded by stylists and models so it was…
