When I was at University, I got myself into a bit of a pickle money wise. I spent what I didn’t have. I ran up credit card debt on a whim. I spent too much money on alcohol and cigarettes and not enough on things like my wellbeing and future. But, lessons come to us in the weirdest of ways and there’s no doubt that my time at university gave
We all love a nice garden, don’t we?

This is going to depend on a series of factors that you may not have thought about before embarking on the journey to getting a
Oh, am I excited today! It’s been bloomin’ ages since I’ve done a Wisdom In Heels interview (if you missed the series, think inspirational interviews with the very best kind of women and catch up here).

Not so long ago, I signed my first book publishing deal to write an inspirational book about blogging and how it can change your life. At the time I was over the moon! I literally jumped for joy when the contract landed through my letterbox and couldn’t wait
Back in December I was given a shopping challenge and asked to try out a new kind of gift card that allows greater spending freedom. The kind people at *One4all sent me one of their lovely gift cards and always up for a challenge, I soon got to work. My shopping mission – for those of you that may have missed it – was to buy a party outfit and
There was an older girl in my primary school whom I adored when I was little. I thought she was the coolest, funniest and most beautiful girl I had ever met and I wanted to be just like her. She wore the best clothes, was bright as a button and had a nonchalance about her which was remarkable. Whatever that infamous ‘it’ is, boy did she have it. I would
So, over the Christmas and New Year period, I was set a shopping challenge. To find a perfect party outfit on the high street using just the One4all gift card. Easy right?
