Tuesday Tune: Chemicals – Various Cruelties
After such a great start to the year I’ve been slacking somewhat on the blog front. There’s so much going on right now that I actually wouldn’t even know where to begin if I were to start. Instead I thought I’d share one of my absolute favourite songs of the last few weeks. No matter … Continue reading

#MotivationMonday – Everything will be okay in the end.
Image from Pinterest I’m hoping 2014 will bring a lot of change, but I’m aware that 2014 can’t do it alone so I’ve decided to take a break from Music Monday and instead start #MotivationMonday where I’ll start each week with a fitting quote that’ll remind me to stay focused and make 2014 my year of … Continue reading
Review – Superdrug Naturally Radiant Brightening Hot Cloth Cleanser
Given I’m not a fan of the Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser this is reportedly a dupe of I must admit I had pretty low expectations for Superdrug’s Naturally Radiant Brightening Hot Cloth Cleanser (boy that’s a name and a half!). That said when I spotted it on offer for less than … Continue reading
My 2014 Resolutions
Image from Pinterest So it’s a new year, which means it’s time to think about what’s important to me and what I hope to achieve in 2014. Last year I wrote my 2013 Blogging Resolutions, but this year I feel I need to focus on my life and embrace the changes a new year brings, … Continue reading
Walking the Golden Gate Bridge
This time last week I donned my scarf and blazer and hopped on the muni to the Golden Gate Bridge. Rach and I were a tad hungover after our work holiday party so we decided the best cure was a walk along the bridge. I’m always a little apprehensive when visiting iconic landmarks as so … Continue reading

I Love… San Francisco
Forget “I left my heart in Beverly Hills”, there’s only one city that’s captured my heart and that’s San Francisco. In fact I’ve even been known to contemplate moving to the city of fog my love runs that deep. Unfortunately I’m yet to find someone to offer me sponsorship else I’d be on a flight … Continue reading
Music Monday: A Little Death – The Neighbourhood
No matter what else is going on in my life I always find a reassuring constant in music. It’s my sanctuary, a place where I find comfort in other people’s words. I stumbled across this little gem of a track whilst away with work last week and instantly fell in love. Those of you of … Continue reading

My Big Juice Spring Clean Diary – Day 1
Until a matter of weeks ago I was a complete juicing virgin, then I turned 26 and got myself a juicer. Spurred on partly by Mike’s insistence that I would get bored after a week I have been juicing the crap out of anything I can get my hands on and feeling a darn sight … Continue reading
Review – REN Clearcalm 3 Clarity Restoring Mask*
Excuse the slightly battered box on this one, my postie was clearly having a bit of a bad day when he delivered this little package. Anyway, I’ve been using REN’s Clearcalm 3 Clarity Restoring Mask* for a few months now and thought it was about time I shared my thoughts with you. When the kind … Continue reading

Review – L’Occitane Immortelle SPF 40 Brightening Shield

Mikey also managed to get … Continue reading
