What Star Wars Means to Me
Today may be the start of December making us into the home stretch for Christmas, but for me, December marks another home stretch, the run up to Star Wars Episode VII, The Force Awakens. For me, this is the most anticipated movie of the year. I will be watching the previous 6 movies before I go see it. I have watched and analysised the trailer. I have seen and read cast interviews, but I doubt I’ll ever be ready for what I’m going to see in the cinema. It’s going to be The Return of the King all over again. Star Wars has been a huge part of my life…

Photo Printing with Cheerz
In my opinion there is nothing better than printed photos. Yes, there are so many ways to share your photos online so everyone can see, which is of course nice, but I still love decorating my home and gifting people hard copies. Especially around Christmas time. Last year LM had a Christmas photoshoot with a local studio, but this year I just didn’t have the money, so when I was offered the chance to have some of my photos printed by Cheerz, I jumped at the chance. If you haven’t heard about Cheerz before, they’re a new photo printing app and website, that enables you to print your photos in…

Shopping Spotlight – Cherry Diva
A few weeks back I was contacted by the lovely people over at Cherry Diva to ask if I’d like to review some bits from their store. After a quick browse I already saw a lot of pieces right up my street and they were kind enough to send me a few. The parcel arrived while I was suffering from a cold and flu virus and what I received really cheered me up. The items were beautifully presented each in not only a gift bag but a cellophane bag which seemed really professional and I like how together the two stopped the necklace from moving around and ending up tangled.…

Amphora Aromatics Rosemary and Thyme Essential Oil Candle Review
As the dark nights come in, I love to have a few candles burning in my lounge because it creates a really nice cosy atmosphere. However there is nothing worse than a candle the only lasts a night of burning, which is so often the case with cheaper ones. As I’m someone who can’t be shelling out £15+ weekly for a candle, I’m always looking for reasonably priced once that burn for a decent amount of time, enter the Amphora Aromatics 20 Hour Mini Candle* that retails for a well priced £5.50. Amphora Aromatics is a brand known for their natural aromatherapy. Founded back in the 80s, the company originally…
