Can I Get the Stained Glass Look in My Home?*

Stained glass windows are beautiful and underrated because they’re typically only associated with churches. Granted, churches featured the first stained glass windows, because they were used to illustrate bible stories…

    MeMeMe Dark & Divine Mascara Review

    May 3, 2014 /

    As much as I absolutely adore my SLR, and believe me, I do, it is not the best when it comes to taking close up photos of my face. I think I may have to invest in a new lens eventually if I want to continue with make up reviews, because I always feel like I have to include a photo of it on my face, otherwise I could be telling you total tosh, right? Anyway, the reason I’m going on about that is because today I’m reviewing a fab new mascara from MeMeMe. MeMeMe is a brand I have only just discovered back in January, but so far, I’m…

    The Maison Maille Culinary Blogger Challenge

    May 2, 2014 /

    Back in March I was contacted about a Culinary Challenge hosted by the people over at Maille. They were offering to send bloggers a couple of their products that would be used in original recipes as part of a competition. The winning entry, chosen by a panel of judges, would win a fantastic Food Lover London tour for two, valued at over £390 and the runners up will win a luxury hamper worth over £100. For me, any chance to win a trip to London in relation to food was enough to get my brain whirling with possible winning ideas. So I accepted and it took me a good six…

    April Reads

    May 1, 2014 /

    I keep thinking I did really badly on my book reading this month, but in actual fact, I didn’t. I technically only read one books, but since the second book I started mid April is 800 pages odd long in tiny print with hundreds of characters, I don’t think it’s surprising i’m not even a third of the way through. Yes, you guessed it, I started to read A Song of Ice and Fire by George RR Martin. I’m only 200 pages into the first book Game of Thrones and it’s hard going, but I’m enjoying it.  The book I did manage to read happened to be a tour guide,…

    Outfit of the Day – On Wednesdays We Wear Pink

    April 30, 2014 /

    Although I’ve already blogged today, I have been planning an outfit for weeks especially for this day. Today is 10 years since Mean Girls was first released, and since Mean Girls wear pink on a Wednesday, my Twitter and Instagram feeds have been filled with photos of people wearing pink. Of course I’m not exception. I had originally ordered one of Jojo’s t-shirts but I left it late and it hasn’t arrived in time. It will still get a lot of wear and it’s actually not pink, it’s white. I did have a moments panic last night because I didn’t even think Little Miss and I owned anything pink, but…

    Death By Chocolate!

    April 29, 2014 /

    So today I have another installment of Bee’s fabulous Murder Mystery parties series for you guys! As you all know by now, my best friend Bee over at Journeys are my Diary, is the QUEEN of throwing parties, they’re turning into one of the highlights of my month. This month was of course, no exception although in the beginning I was worried I wouldn’t be able to afford to go! Thankfully I scraped the train fare together and headed down to visit her and her lovely family for a couple of days during the Easter holidays. On my first night she played wonderful host to our Easter themed Murder Mystery,…
