Wedding Wednesday – Things I’ve Learnt From Working in the Wedding Industry 

I’ve been working in be wedding industry for several years now and over time, working on so many weddings, I’ve come to learn a few tips and tricks along with general realisations.  It’s hard to switch off  Although my job is technically 9am until 2pm, I often find myself thinking about work when I’m at home.

Beauty Review – Barry M Strobe Cream & The Body Shop Baked to Last Bronzing Powder 

Wow, does this post have the longest ever blog title or what?! Basically, rather than doing two separate reviews I figured I would do both at once mainly because since I bought these two products, I’ve been using them together and I love the results.

In fact snacking is one of my worst traits and the reason why I’m probably resembling a whale more than a glowing earth mother during this pregnancy.  I have very little self control and it only takes Ed to mention the word snack and I’m craving sugary or salty goodness on my tastebuds… These are my...

Wedding Wednesday – My Wedding Planning File 

As you may or may not know, I’ve been married before and the wedding I’m currently planning will be my second marriage. One of the things I found incredibly useful for my first wedding was the wedding file I put together with everything to do with the wedding inside. It was an invaluable tool in the lead up to the big day and when I started planning my wedding with...

Mini Beauty Review – Essence Eyeshadow 

Ok so I have like a massive backlog of beauty reviews I want/need to do after a big (well, big for me, probably tiny for most) beauty shop I did on my return from Devon last week. However, I just had to shove this one to the top of the waiting list because this little gem cost me *drumroll* £1.00! Yes, one measly pound that even I can afford when...
