winter warmers
With the clocks now well and truly back for many, it will now be dark both when your alarm goes off in the morning – meaning you will no doubt be getting ready with the sun only just starting to rise outside the window – and leaving work when it has already set. Cosy and...

fast fashion
They seem to be the two words on everyone’s lips at the moment. Fast fashion. With the recent reports highlighting the state of our planet – and what should happen if we don’t act – the world of fashion has had a rather serious knock too. With the rise of influencer fashion, ‘must-haves’ and style...

Following on from the fast fashion discussion, the importance of re-wearing our wardrobe and making good investments is now starting to take precedence. It’s all too easy to buy new items.

gift giving
With my boyfriend’s birthday fast approaching always comes the obligatory line – ‘Oh, don’t worry about getting me anything’, quickly followed by my mandatory response – ‘Don’t be silly, of course I want to buy you something.’ The trouble is, I do always struggle with what to buy him. He is not a material guy...

self care
When we’re in times of worry, stress, contemplation or indecision, we often find it difficult to find a balance. One that helps us to relax and restore, taking us back to a place where we feel happy and content. When we are struck down with one or more of these feelings then, how do we...

Tidy House, Tidy Mind
We tend to hear a lot about the effects of clutter and having too many ‘things’. How having a crowded space can lead to a crowded and cluttered mind. That adopting a more minimalist lifestyle can offer a wealth of benefits, both in mind and space. It makes sense, doesn’t it, that if we live...
