For a while now I’ve really wanted to take on a project bag. I hoped to find an item that was old and unloved and give it a new lease of life! I began my search on eBay and it wasn’t long before I came across the designer bag I was going to transform…
The world is a very strange place at the moment. Our routines no longer exist and the majority of us are working from home. For me, the novelty of sitting in my pyjamas all day quickly wore off, I ended up feeling like a bit of a slob. In order for me to be productive, I needed to put some actual clothes on and make myself look presentable. I think I’ve finally found a happy medium between looking put together and feeling comfortable.
This is the first bad word I’ve had to say about any luxury brand ever, and I hope its the last. I don’t like being negative about anything or anyone, but if I can protect some of my readers from having the same experience as me, I feel it’s best to do that.
It’s that tricky time of the year when it’s difficult to know what clothes to put on. I live in the North East of England and this week alone we’ve had wind, rain, snow and sun. It feels like every week there’s a new storm to contend with – but it’s March! Spring should be just around the corner…
Talking through my best and worst purchases of 2019. I didn’t go on too much of a shopping spree, but I did buy a few things. I also had my 30th birthday last year so that was an occasion I wanted to mark with something special. Among the hits, there were also a couple of misses…
I’ve always thought I was a big wallet kind of girl. I have so many store cards, I hoard receipts “just in case” and keep everything and the kitchen sink inside my purse. I’ve come to realise that I use about 20% of the cards I have, and the rest is just taking up room.
A Keepall has been on my wishlist for quite a while. For weekends away, I was lugging around a small suitcase which seemed a bit too much for most trips. A Keepall looked perfect for my needs, but I definitely didn’t have the funds to buy one brand new!
The Kate Spade Daniels Drive Abigail is the bag I reach for when I want a black bag, big enough for everyday essentials but not too big. If is so versatile and robust, I couldn’t be without it. Take a look at what fits inside…
In all honesty I do prefer designer handbags to ones from the high-street because, generally speaking, the quality means they are going to last much longer. However, I like to keep a few non-designer handbags, for those times when I don’t want to use something expensive.
Since turning 30 a couple of months ago and never really having had a structured skincare routine, I decided it was time to start trialling some new products in order to find out what works best for me.
