What October Looked Like

Well, good morning and welcome to November! I trust everyone has a slight “Halloween on a Saturday” hangover this morning? I’m actually off to spend the first day of November doing healthful things like going for long walks, though I will also be drinking spiced cider and eating chilli, and the walk won’t be quite

So That Was Summer

Ah, September. Here you are again.

Retro Chick Reviews: Wade & Belle No Dig Tights

Earlier this week I received a little parcel from Wade & Belle. Wade & Belle make a brand called “Not Too Tights” and I was intrigued by them as they promise to eliminate that “muffin top” you get on the waistband of tights, and be more comfortable to wear. I largely gave up on tights

How I Found Out My Bra Didn't Fit #BHSBraFit

Today is my birthday, just so you know. In case you forgot you can run to the shops for gifts and cards and post them to me and when they turn up just claim that the post must have been slow. I won’t mind, honest, even though I secretly won’t believe it was the post
