Beauty. Fashion. My preoccupations.
I started writing about my adventure in Paris last year and after the first month, I didn’t pick up my laptop again. I’ve spent the last week wondering why that was, and I came to one conclusion: When I moved to Paris I decided to just live. 2018 fed my soul in so many ways.
So, I have officially been in Paris for 18 days and have loved every minute of it! It honestly feels like i have been here for a lot longer than 2.5 weeks and I think that’s all thanks to me settling into a routine pretty quickly since arriving and having already made friends. Read more.
Focussing on myself and my “me-time” is something I’ve been working on for ages but haven’t really managed to get right. So last week, after the most severe anxiety attack I have ever experienced…
Last year I set out to read a book a month as part of my goals I wrote down in my bullet journal. Well, it turns out it was a little too ambitious and I sadly didn’t reach that target. What did I manage to finish reading?
I haven’t done a Mani Monday post on my blog in forever (partly because I haven’t blogged a lot lately and partly because I haven’t done my nails in even longer which I am working on getting better at), but I did share this Revlon Colorstay Gel Envy shade on my social media a little […]
Hello May I can’t believe it is the 1st day of the 5th month of the year. Where has this year gone too?!? It some ways it feels like only a week or two has passed since I wrote my post about my word of the year, and in other ways it feels like a year […]

I have always loved the smell of the original Pantene range and remember clearly when it first came out. The […]
I first discovered ColourPop on social media and started following them on SnapChat to find out more. There aren’t many make-up brands (in my opinion) that get it right on SnapChat and I honestly love how ColourPop (@ColourPopCo) really gives you a behind-the-scenes view of how the products are developed and packaged. Jordynn and Sharon run the […]
It’s been forever since I last did a mani Monday post and tonight I decided that instead of doing a post on all the red / pink / Valentine’s Day-inspired nail art that I have seen over the last two days on social media, I wanted to rather show you my new mani obsession – nude […]
I literally can’t function in the morning if I’ve not had breakfast! It’s like the “on” switch for my body because when I wake up just after 05:00, my stomach is already grumbling for some food. It amazes me when people tell me they don’t eat breakfast because it’s the same thing every day which is boring or it’s […]
