CELEBRATING INSPIRING WOMEN (BECAUSE THEY DON’T GET CELEBRATED ENOUGH IN MY BOOK)

EVERYWHERE I turn, everywhere I look, I am surrounded by inspiring women. Extraordinary women.Women who have survived and thrived against the odds. Women who achieve the most incredible things. Women who continually strive to be their best. So many women in my life inspire me and make me want to be better, from my mum to my three sisters, to my mother in law to my best friends. All of

How to get the most out of your creativity

AS a professional blogger one of the things I often find the most challenging is coming up with new ideas for posts. On a good day, I can come up with at least half a dozen belting ideas but every so often, just like anyone else, I have days when I am stuck in an idea fog. What can I say? It happens to the best of us. Thankfully a

Stepping out in ‘Air & Grace’

WHAT if I told you I’d found the comfiest boots in the world? Would you believe me? It’s a bold claim to make I know. And is of course, pretty darn impossible to prove. However, if these Air & Grace boots aren’t the comfiest boots in the world, I’m in no doubt, that they will come up close. I know quite a bit about shoes you see. In my twenties

What happened when the snow happened, today…

I HAD great ideas about how I was going to spend today. I was going to do lots of work. I was going to get my nails done (they’re in desperate need of a little TLC) and meet a friend for a cuppa. I was going to write a ‘serious’ blog post. I was going to get lots of s**t done. That was until I looked out of the window

A classic black dress and a trusty trench

THE older I get, the more I understand the need for quality and longevity when it comes to clothing. Sure I like a bargain and to splurge on something frivolous from time to time, but I’m becoming quite the fan of classic pieces and the important role they play in my wardrobe. A little black dress is one of those classic pieces, if you get it right, that is. I
