Plaits, Braids and Pleats… oh my!
Plaits are everywhere at the moment; it’s the latest trend on the celeb circuit. Everyone from Sarah Michelle Gellar to Blake Lively and Pixie Lott are channeling this trend. If, like me, you can’t plait a braid to save your…
Mineral Madness
The first piece of make-up I ever properly owned (excluding mummy-inherited eyeshadows and lipsticks) was a pressed powder. My mum and nan always used them so the smell instantly made me feel grown up and like I knew what I…
Salt Head
Bed head is no longer a term used to describe rubbish, hungover hair. It’s a true style in its own right and has spawned an influx of products aimed at helping you re-create this look without the need for jumping…
Sparkle Fingers
So continuing with my Christmas theme (take a seat, relax and get a cuppa… it’s gonna be Christmas for a while) today it’s all about sparkly nails. Sparkle is to Christmas like cranberry sauce is to turkey… it goes hand…

Cheeky Chappy
My coffee table is usually covered in magazines as I attempt (and inevitably fail) to copy the celeb looks and re-create the fabulous beauty pages. There’s nothing I love more than chillaxing with a fab magazine and a cuppa. InStyle…
I got me some ELF
Not literally a small man dressed in green and red. Although that would be pretty awesome come Christmas time, what I actually got was some ELF cosmetics. A brand that I’ve never heard of was recommended by fellow bloggers after…
Don’t rate it then slate it
My new style crush is Karen Gillan. Not only because she’s in one of my favourite ever programmes (yes, I’m a geek), but because she’s super stylish without looking try-hard. Since she came on the scene less than a year…
