A Week In Sorrento And Visiting Capri & Rome

Well it's 3 days since I returned from my week in Sorrento, Italy (plus a few little jaunts to Rome and Capri in between) and I'm still suffering from a major case of the holiday blues so I thought I'd do a little blog post about it. This was probably the best holiday I've ever been on so I'm excited to share with you what we got up to there whilst there!

Recent Beauty Favourites

Hello, hello - it's been a while hasn't it!? I say this every time I go on a bit of a blogging break but this actually is the longest I've gone without blogging since I started I think. Not cool. Anyways, here I am, with a little post on some bangin' beauty bits I've been trying over the past month or so that I just had to share with you...

What I Read In January

One of my goals for this year was to read more. I love reading but I can go months on end without ever actually picking a book up because I'm too 'busy' (ie. wasting my life on social media!) I started off the year really well and read 3 books in the first week of January. Then I got a bit slack and only managed another 2 for the rest of the month. Still - if I can get through 5 a month - I'll be happy with that! Here's what I read in January - maybe you'll find yourself some books to add to your 'to read' list...

A Wednesday In Whitby

When I was younger, visiting the seaside was something I did a lot more regularly. Up until this trip, I hadn't been to a (British) seaside for at least 10 years! Since Josh had a couple of days off last week, we decided to go on a little day out to Whitby, in North Yorkshire. It's about a 2 hours drive away from where we live but was definitely worth the road trip!

Easy Ways To Make Extra Cash Online

Okay, so I've done a few posts like this before but I thought I'd do an updated 2017 version for any new readers and, also, for anyone who's just generally interested in making a bit of extra cash online! Someone on Twitter recently asked me to do a post with tips on how I sell things on eBay so I thought I'd just put a post together about making extra money online, in general, and also include some eBay pointers in there, too!

Some Books I Want To Read In 2017

I've set myself the challenge of 'reading more' for the past couple of years, now. Whilst I never go a year without at least reading 5/6 books, I never read enough. I love reading. I'm not someone who just wants to do it because I feel like I should - I genuinely really enjoy it. I miss studying English Literature and dissecting a single quote and thinking about all the different ways it could be interpreted, I miss looking for a hidden message or metaphor behind a seemingly simple sentence. I just really love getting stuck into a good book and I'm always reminded of this when I eventually pick up a book and end up finishing it in a few days flat because I get so hooked.
