6 TED Talks to Change Your Mindset

One of the things I’ve worked on really hard over the last few years is thinking about my mindset. You might have seen my post recently about how mindfulness helped me deal with anxiety. I’ve become fascinated with how much power our minds have over our bodies, and how much impact our mindset can really

February Favourites

Last month I somewhat mysteriously hinted that my monthly “Things I Tried…” roundups might be changing format. TBH I feel like I might have oversold it slightly because here we are, in March, and basically what I’ve done is renamed it February Favourites. My incredibly deep thought process behind this is that sometimes the “Things

This Week I……

Hello! Well, that was an interesting week wasn’t it? Half the country were blanketed in 2 feet of snow, which left people unable to leave their houses, stranded in their cars and caused multiple deaths.

This Week I…….

Hi there Sunday folks, how are you? I’ve been a little (ok, completely) quiet this week, but that’s not to say I’ve not been busy working on the blog. This year I promised myself I would not put pressure on myself to get content out when things were overwhelmingly busy. I didn’t however, plan to

This Week (and a bit) I…..

Afternoon folks! The eagle-eyed who actually care among you will notice that there was no this week I last Sunday. This wasn’t because absolutely nothing happened in the previous week, it was actually because I was extremely distracted by spending the entire day watching the live feed of the Roller Derby World Cup.

Friday Frock Love – Short Stuff

Recently my knees have been on show a lot more. It started with the Boden leopard print dress, then there was the lycra mini, and then shorter styles like this Joanie Clothing dress and this skirt, as well as the rediscovery of this Alice by Temperley dress that had been lurking in my closet. There
