I went for an impromptu trip to Primark yesterday afternoon because I needed a power bank before my phone died – apparently theirs come with some charge in them already but I’m yet to prove that’s the case. (When it's so bright you're wearing sunglasses indoors aka never) I got wholly distracted because Primark is full of a) pretty things and b) absolute bargains! I’m lucky because in Manchester we have a truly epic Primark! Without even glancing at homeware, menswear or the

Mid November. Where the hell has the year gone? The one plus side to the fact that Christmas is so close that you can no longer avoid Mariah Carey and co on the radio is that it’s party season! And party season is the perfect excuse to try out wearing something out of your comfort zone. Think about it; you’ll probably never wear it again and everyone in the office will be so drunk they won’t remember it the next day ... I’m usually one to play it safe but my inner magpie ca

I’ve been on the hunt for a fur coat for a couple of months now after seeing this over-sized red beauty in Forever 21. Total heart eye emoji moment, trust me! I was devastated that the Medium was too big and they’d sold out, not just in store but online too, in a Small. Gutted. My love affair with fur coats has been a long standing one.

There was an excited atmosphere; it was less of a party than the one before, but you could sense that people knew they were on the brink of

If you’ve read my previous blog then you’ll know I recently went to Amsterdam. We were only there for 48 hours so you’re probably wondering why on earth it’s prompted me to do a packing guide, right? We jumped on a plane from Schiphol Airport, not back to Manchester but to Barcelona! I know, I know … it was the first time in my life I’d done a holiday like it and it was incredible. There’ll be a blog coming soon all about my time in Barcelona because I like giving people tra

I recently went to Amsterdam for the first time. I know, right?! Late to the game though I may be I made damn sure to make the most of the 48 hours I had in the city! You know what the hardest part was? Packing! Amsterdam was the first stop of the holiday and it was forecast to rain for our entire visit. Easy peasy … NOT. Our second destination was Barcelona who are STILL going through unusually warm weather for the time of year. (Wah! Take me back!) There’s a blog post o

So here I am. It's Saturday night and I've finally put pen to paper (or more appropriately, fingers to keyboard, but that's FAR less poetic!) on my very first blog post. I know what you're thinking - as if the world needs yet another fashion blogger! The truth is this is something I should have done a long time ago. I'm notorious for coming up with ideas and not following them through and I've tried this once before. I decided the best part of 10 years ago that I was going
