Guest Post // Red Elephant
Another guest post by another of my favourite bloggers, the very beautiful Tasha of Hello Freckles. Leave her some love! x ————————————————— Dress- Sugarhill Boutique, Bag- Zara, Sunglasses-Vans* Hi! I’m Tasha from Hello Freckles and the lovely Amy was very keen for me to guest post on her blog while she’s moving. I saw this dress and immediately knew I had to get it; I think there was something about the print and how cute the elephants were with their trunks interlaced. I was a little unsure about the cut out detail to the back at first but it’s grown on me now; it makes it a bit different to…

#163 Lush Angels on Bare Skin Cleanser Review
This is the first of two posts today as for the whole of this month I’ve been very slack in blogging. It’s not because I don’t want to or don’t have thins to blog about, it’s just the fact I’m tired. Usually the only time in the day I have to blog is in the evening and by that time the thought of thinking of something witty and interesting does not appeal. I’m going to try and make more of an effort to blog during the day when Little Miss is asleep because I do miss it. Today I’m sharing with you the current cleanser I’m using because it has…

#162 Paper Aeroplanes by Dawn O’Porter Review
It’s the mid-1990s, and fifteen year-old Guernsey schoolgirls, Renée and Flo, are not really meant to be friends. Thoughtful, introspective and studious Flo couldn’t be more different to ambitious, extroverted and sexually curious Renée. But Renée and Flo are united by loneliness and their dysfunctional families, and an intense bond is formed.

For Renée and Flo it is the time of their lives. With graphic content…
