    Sponsored Content - What's The Fuss All About?

    12.07.2014

    Recently the ASA (Advertising Standards Authority) released a 'reminder' (more like a disguised telling off) to Bloggers reminding them of the rules surrounding sponsored content, advertised youtube posts and paid for blog posts. This has caused a massive fuss in the blogger community and it seems that all of the 'big' bloggers...

    Smoak Bar Grill Manchester at the Malmaison

    11.13.2014

    Anyone that knows me, knows that steak is at the centre of all of my favourite meals. I have had many good ones but this one at the Malmaison was great!  Not for the faint hearted, this steak was 1KG, pretty much a small child. For a sumptuous steak and delicious sides, I highly recommend the Smoak Bar Grill. Image...

    Love Beauty the Primark Beauty Bar

    9.30.2014

    Primark Manchester is one of the first UK stores to launch their new beauty bar, 'Love Beauty' and I have to say, I'm impressed. When it comes to my eyebrows it always seems to be a bit hit and miss to me,  but I decided to get my eyebrows neatened up at this shiny new salon! Dressed in Clinique style uniform, it...

    Lês Têtes Brûlées , Paris

    9.28.2014

    When I arrived in Paris to celebrate my 21st and visit my friend, I was adamant I wanted to eat somewhere quintessentially French on the first night, and Lês Têtes Brûlées, not too far from Paris Nord train station was just the spot!                         ...

    Parklife Blues

    6.11.2014

    It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Park life was eventful! From losing my friends, to raving in a huge muddy pit with strangers, I'd still do it again. This week I am feeling so under the weather though, not sure if it was all my adventures or just the crazy hay fever that everyone seems to...

    Home Sweet Home

    6.11.2014

    On one of my first days here in Manchester a friend took me for a little tour of the Northern Quarter. On one sunny sunday, I ventured out to see what foodie places I could visit, none of these pretentious portions though, I wanted a real meal. Right on my door step, unknown to me was a haven of culture where it seems any...

    Back To Natural

    3.05.2014

    I have been transitioning for nearly 2 years now and have discovered a lot about my hair on the way. Firstly, everyone is different. It is important to realise that you have to find what works for you and not what someone who appears to just have the same length hair is using. We all have different hair types. It depends...
