Getting a new puppy is a very exciting time for all the family, we know this well! Very cute but very crazy. The unconditional love and pure entertainment they bring is priceless, not to mention the motivation to get us out and about for those much-needed walks.
London is a large and crowded city, and London event managers know what people want, especially at New Year: a good ambiance, plenty of drinks, and a memorable and happy start to what will hopefully be a much better year than the last two! Here are some of the most popular spots where you can get away from the daily grind to enjoy a spectacular New Year celebration!
When it comes to our homes, most of us have a picture in our minds of how we want it to look someday – I’ve got Dream Home Makeover to blame for that! We scroll Instagram and Pinterest and wish we could have someone make our home look like that. Let’s face it, most of us don’t have the kind of money it would take to have a team of professionals come in and create our dream house. But, there *might* be another way.
Dora Larsen is a brand seriously paving the way for modern lingerie shopping. I’ve never been the biggest fan of high street lingerie and underwear brands as they’ve always pushed the ‘sexy’ a bit too far. They always make you feel just a teeny bit (or a hell of a lot depending on the day) bad about yourself, how you look and more importantly how comfortable you feel in your own skin. Dora Larsen are here to change that with their beautiful luxury lingerie and some pretty eye-opening research* from November 2021.

Let’s get straight to it, yes it’s extensions and yes they’re clip in. I had an event recently, a beautiful wedding to attend and I fancied something a bit different with my hair. I always hate with events when your hair goes flat within a few hours or your curls drop out. I wanted to do an updo but the length of my hair only lends itself to a low bun which is a style I wear my hair in on a few days a week basis so this wasn’t cutting it either.
Lucky Nottingham we’ve been graced with the presence of Hickory’s Smokehouse and before I even saw it was open myself I’d heard lots about it. We tried for weeks to get booked in and finally got in on a Wednesday evening – the first slot available! This isn’t a sponsored or a gifted experience we headed down ourselves as we love barbecue food and just had to try it.
Whilst trying to be a bit less fast-fashion and a bit more environmentally friendly I’ve started a bit of charity shop scouring in our local nice part of town plus I’m addicted to Depop and eBay!
Here are my most recent bargain finds, some of them brand new. Check out my latest second hand buys in my Instagram Reels.

Here’s a little style and Black Friday post for you all focused on one of my favourite brand at the moment, Monica Vinader. I’m a Brand Ambassador for them and the links in this post will be affiliate so I’ll earn some points or commission if you use it.
I’ve loved Monica Vinader as a jewellery brand for years now. It was the first brand that I bought myself some ‘proper’ jewellery from and I felt like an actual grown up. This must have been in 2016 and now I’m planning to buy my wedding band from there because their jewellery is just beautiful. One of my besties wore earrings from there on her big day too and it’s just such a beautiful brand with ethical credentials and amazingly timeless and stylish jewels.
