It's the second in my seasonal roundup / lust list/ 'things I just reyt like' posts. This time on my favourite topic of THINGS THAT I CAN PUT ON MY BODY aka STYLE.
I mean, you can put anything on your body if you want; wafer thin ham, twenty terrapins, an egg. But these are things specific to me and if you want to talk about those things, do your own post ok?

It hit me today that I LOVE roundup posts but I never do them. Partly because I'm lazy and partly also because I am lazy. So I've taken the decision to use the festive season as an excuse to summarise the products I've loved throughout the year, items I've had my eye on and just generally lovely things I'd like to tell you about, and where better to start than with Beauty?

As much as I've complained about the seemingly never ending sweatiness of this year, Summer never seemed to get started did it? Maybe it's because I've not been on my holidays yet or maybe it's global warming. Who knows.

This HAS, however, brought the old transitional style question into play earlier than I would usually expect and I AM NOT READY.

Sustainability is such a buzz word right now, and for perfectly good reason. We are a nation of consumers; Fast food, fast fashion and fast relationships.

Cue me, a 35-year-old woman, terrified that the world is crashing and burning, making some big choices. The IMPORTANT choices.

Choices, my friends, about wine.

We're not all jetting off to white sands and palm trees this Summer but a holiday is a holiday, and a holiday deserves a holiday wardrobe, whether it be in St Tropez or Skegness.

Travel | A Weekend Of Rest at Ye Olde Bell Spa

Thursday, July 11, 2019

[Ye Olde Bell Hotel and Spa very kindly offered us a discounted rate for an incredible couple of days with them but all opinions are my own]

After your late 20s, being a woman is HARD. Work, family, LIFE... So getting away for a couple of days to to chill the heck out is often very much at the top of our to do lists. Throw an impromptu hen party into the mix and a Luxury spa day at Ye Olde Bell Hotel and Spa is the way to go.

As a woman who does a 9-5 being Jen from The IT crowd, enjoys Countryfile more than she ought and who now uses Urban Dictionary on an hourly basis; I often ask myself what the ACTUAL living heck I’m doing perpetually posting partially dressed pictures on the internet.

Travel | Home From Home In Hull

Monday, June 17, 2019

[This post contains a gifted one night stay from The Hideout Apartment Hotel]

You may, or may not know that I am from the greatest city in the world: Kingston Upon Hull.

Home of chip spice, Pattie butties, tenfoots and The Humber Bridge; My hometown, with many working class cities and towns in the North of England, has had a bad rep over the years, but not a day has gone by when I’ve not been proud to be from this glorious city.
