A few weeks ago, a colleague of mine told me about this new hit podcast, Serial. She told me a little about the plot and I was immediately hooked. I listened to about 10 hours of material in around two days; I'm not proud of that. But seriously, it's that good. Serial is a podcast from the producers of This American Life, hosted by journalist Sarah Koenig. Serial tells one story, a true story, over the whole season of the podcast. The interesting thing about Serial is that the hosts don't know what happens at the end until they get there themselves; they are actually discovering the ... Read the Post...
LIFESTYLE: MY LITTLE SUPER BOX | MARCH 2015
Every time I see the little brown box all the way from France waiting to be opened, I do a little internal happy dance. I've had a couple of 'iffy' weeks recently, so this Super box by My Little Box was the perfect pick me up. If you don't know about My Little Box, number 1: where have you been?! Number two: read my first post all about it here. I'd received an email last week from My Little Box with a few clues as to what was going to be inside so I was pretty excited. If you didn't know, I have a lot of love for superhero films so I couldn't wait to see what was going to be ... Read the Post...
BEAUTY: LUSH SEX BOMB
Lush is one of my absolute favourite shops; every time I walk past one I can't help but go in and browse, and often leave with a basket-full of beautiful things! I love baths, and so I usually end up with an abundance of bath products. "When I've got that feeling I need...." a Lush Sex Bomb bath bomb. Perfect for releving feelings of anxiousness, stress and tiredness it's been an absolute necessity for me as of late due to awful assignment deadlines. It contains jasmine, ylang ylang which is renowned for it's soothing effect and clary sage to help clear the mind. It turns the ... Read the Post...
FASHION: LEATHER AND SUEDE
Collared shirts and black jeans are pretty much my standard day to day uniform, so when I saw this blue cotton shirt in Warehouse, I knew it had to be mine. Paired with my new real leather jacket (which I got for £30 down from £170 *squeal*), this is fast becoming my new favourite outfit. It's a great smart casual look, which I can dress up or dress down depending on the occasion! I've had a real thing for silver jewellery too lately, so I'm stocking up. The cage ring is perfect, albeit a little too long for my fingers, but feeling a little uncomfortable is worth it for such pretty ... Read the Post...
BEAUTY: BENEFIT ROLLER LASH MASACARA
My relationship with Benefit mascaras hasn't been too great. They're Real is one of the best selling mascaras there is, there's no argument about it. Though for some reason, I didn't love it. I know, I know, I can hear you all gasping and tutting in disbelief, but I just didn't find it worked too great on me. My lashes are pretty straight and short sadly enough, so it takes a miracle mascara to keep a curl in them, and They're Real wasn't the one. Enter Roller Lash, Benefit's latest release. As I'm sure you all know, Elle offered a mini Roller Lash in their last issue, and so of course I ... Read the Post...
