10th March 2017 marked the fourth anniversary of my blog. Yep, you read that correctly, I have been sharing  - more like oversharing amirite? - my life and my loves with you guys for (over) four years now. I can't tell you where the time has gone, it seems like only yesterday I was sitting in my pokey uni flat, in a room full of annoying boys, trying to decide what my first blog post should be about (you can read it here if you fancy a laugh!)

I've been really getting into podcasts lately, I spend about 2 hours a day on buses to and from work, and it can get pretty tedious. Sometimes I read but more often than not it makes me feel travel sick. Mostly I just listen to music, but even that can get a bit monotonous sometimes. So I've been turning to podcasts to wile the hours I spend on public transport. Here's my top 3 podcast picks, that you need to listen to ASAP.  Trust me, you won't regret it.

First of all can we just all take a moment to appreciate my unicorn bed sheets? I've had them since October and I'm still so obsessed with them. They are the exact opposite of elegance and sophistication and I love them for it. Now that the unicorn appreciation is out of the way let's talk about Garnier's Moisture Bomb collection, and answer that most important of questions: is it actually da bomb?

Forgive me readers for I have sinned. I haven't blogged in a long time, well over a month.  Things have been so crazy busy lately that my blog was placed firmly on the back burner until things settled. However life is showing no sign of slowing down - I'm really not complaining, it's incredible! - so  I will be making a conscious effort to make more time for blogging. For now I will be sticking to my normal routine -Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays - but I'll let you know if anything changes.

Its been a while since I've just sat down and had a chat with you guys about what's going on in my life, and because there is so much going on at the moment - and I've been promising a life update for ages! - I thought that now would be a good time.

Firstly I must apologies for these pictures. I'm really not happy with them, but I'm so short of time at the moment that I'm having to work with what I've got. It doesn't help that I mostly use natural lighting and it is so dreary at the moment. When I've got some time, and some decent lighting, I will definitely be re-shooting.

*Blog update: I have re-shot and I am much happier with the pictures now :) *

Long time readers will know that I have something of a love-hate relationship with my hair (read more here). Either it behaves itself, in which case I love it, but most of the time it doesn't and I actively despise it.

The 6 lipsticks that live in my handbag

The 6 lipsticks that live in my handbag

l-r: Nyx Soft Matte Lip Cream in San Paulo, L'oreal Color Riche Lipstick in Julianne's Nude, Revlon Colorburst Balm Stain in Honey, Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Matte Lipstick in Pommie Girl, Nyx Matte Lipstick in Tea Rose & Collection Velvet Kiss Moisturising Lip Cream in Cotton Candy. 


I emptied my handbag for the first time in ages the other day and nestled amongst the empty chewing gum packets, Costa receipts and a quite frankly astounding number of pens I found not one or even two, but six lipsticks! How I managed to squeeze all that in my bag and still use it as a functional handbag I don't know, but I did it. Some of them have been in there so long I thought I'd lost them but I digress.

Once the excitement of Christmas and New Year is out of the way winter becomes incredibly dull so I'm really glad February's here, bringing with it slightly longer days and slightly brighter mornings. I am so ready for spring! Seriously, bring it on! Anyway lets chat goals because, like always, I have a few of them.
