Joining the World of Grown Up Skincare

Over the last four weeks I’ve trialled some grown up skin care. Looking after my skin is one thing I’ve learnt a lot about as I’ve got older. I was never one to fall asleep with my make up on, I read far too many Women’s magazines for that, but it did take me some

The Sub 2 Hour Half Marathon Project

Well, 2017 in underway, and for someone in my house that has included the realisation that this years Norwich Half Marathon is only 3 months away as it has moved to April instead of November. Thankfully that person is not me. I decided last year that training for Half Marathons is too time consuming and

Dull, Grey & Cold

Well, that must rank among the most cheerful blog titles ever. Dull, grey, and cold is, however, a very good description of the weather right now. It’s damp, occasionally rainy and the urge to put nice clothes on and take outfit photos on my way to places is not strong. This outfit is fairly typical

This Week I……

Can you believe that this time last week it was New Years Day? Real life has certainly come bounding straight back in with a vengeance. The decorations are gone, apart from one string of fairy lights that are pretty and I’m going to find some regular decoration job for. Work is back in full flow

Dress With Style – Or Why I Treat my Wardrobe Like a Dressing Up Box

A clear out is under way. Between Christmas and New Year saw the commencement of phase one of operation “OMG there is so much stuff in this house I can hardly move” (snappy, I know). I am one of life’s natural hoarders. So is Mr Chick. As pairings go that is pretty darn terrible. Let

Happy New Year!

I hope you all had a good few weeks of excess and debauchery that will make that New Year health kick worthwhile? Once again I am starting this year with plans and goals to make this blog bigger, better, and more useful. I’m slowly figuring out where I stand in this big world of fitness

Things I Wore You Can Buy in the January Sales

Writing about shopping can be very frustrating. There is absolutely no way that I could buy everything I write about. Firstly because I just don’t have the money, I’m a self employed writer, basically and unless you’re JK Rowling that’s not a job that generally involves rolling in money. Secondly, because I live in a

2016 – A Year in Frocks

Happy New Year! I hope most of you are enjoying the fact that it’s a Bank Holiday today and spending one last day in your pyjamas before the return to normal life. Traditionally I start the year with a little retrospective of my year in frocks. I don’t know how long *technically* you need to

This Week I……

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I’ve already had multiple emails about diets this morning and Iceland has moved all the Slimming World food next to the door and banished the party food to the darkest corner of the store. I however, am eating left over sausage rolls and crumpets, and gearing up for the traditional New Years
