It's so easy to get stuck in a makeup rut. I've lost count of the number of times friends have told me that they're still wearing the same makeup look that they wore in their teens (one even told me she still has the same bottle of foundation she bought fifteen years ago - really!). Even though I'm constantly trying…

You guys know me... the inherent shopaholic! With more shoes than sense, those who know me in real life know I am that cliche, living and breathing. So, in an attempt to curb my spending, I thought I'd do it vicariously in a weekly blog post; all the bits that have caught my eye, that I'm currently lusting over but…

I was brought up to always make sure I look groomed and polished, which meant that hands, nails, hair and shoes should always look presentable. (Hmmm, maybe that's why I have such an unhealthy obsession with shoes?)   Anyway, I have this weird thing about me. Although I love a deep red glossy manicure, I always come back to the…

Packing for a holiday always fills me with dread. I wouldn't say it takes away from the pleasure of the holiday itself, (that would be too dramatic) but I'm usually just so bad at it that I always leave it to the last minute - anyone else find themselves in a 3am packing frenzy? I've always envied those girls that…
