I love that the owner of PHATbreads bought her oven on Ebay! Now that’s taking impulse online shopping to a whole other level. It just goes to show what happens when entrepreneurial spirit meets the click of a mouse! The gold mosaic tiles and clean white finish give the oven an updated funky twist. The […]
Have a right old ROFFLE
There’s nothing like a good belly laugh is there? The kind that makes you almost burst out a mouthful of tea, snort in public or double over to clutch painful sides. My best friend Niamh’s laugh is the best. She’s almost totally silent and sometimes you don’t even notice she’s laughing until you spot her […]
Hi ho, hi ho, it’s off to the dump we go
I had a slightly unusual Sunday, in that I spent a portion of it in a hot, very unpleasant smelling rubbish dump in the shadow of Battersea Power Station. What on earth was I doing there you ask? Well, we had let our garden turn into what can only be described as a bit of […]
Just what the doctor ordered
Even though it’s summer, I’m still finding myself relying on lip balms and moisturisers to keep my skin hydrated and feeling good. With the sun beginning to peek its sleepy head out properly after months of slumber, I think it’s more important than ever to look after our skin. SPF is a given in a […]
The Arch Gallery
I stopped for a much needed coffee near Bethnal Green tube yesterday and along with a cracking double shot americano, I came away having found a brilliant versatile venue called the Arch Gallery. It adapts to suit any event or exhibition and more importantly, it has the flexibility for you to make it your own. The […]
Don’t miss Lavish Habit
This cafe is one of Balham’s secret gems. I love stopping by for coffee, cake and a browse at the brilliant vintage bargains and quirky homewares. I bought a jewellery box in Ropewalk Market yesterday and this is the only reason that I didn’t walk out the door with the gorgeous musical one left to […]
Home sweet home
Ireland has some of the best hotel breaks in the world and if you’re looking for gorgeous scenery, great food and a short commute from Dublin, then look no further than Barberstown Castle, Co. Kildare. I spent the weekend there with my family wandering the grounds, chilling out and people watching. There were weddings on […]
Kiss winter hair goodbye
Buds peeping through flower beds, bunches of canary yellow daffs in windows and a bright blue sky this morning, Spring is most definitely in the air. It seems only right that my hair gets a refreshing cleanse too and the Australian brand, Aesop has a range of lovely products to suit my happy mood. I […]
Mars, Yorkie, nah think I’ll have a t-shirt
Dover Street Market I bow down to you. A beautiful shop as it is and then I find a vending machine of t-shirts. Brilliant.
A vintage find
I picked up this gorgeous sewing box in a market in Bermondsey. Designer hats sat alongside old telephones, china tea sets and books. The energy of the sellers and stall layout took me back to street markets in Laos and Thailand, where most of the fun was the thrill of bartering and knowing that you’re […]
