Last week I talked about easy ways to update your wardrobe for Spring 2023, so today it's time for beauty because we all know how easily make-up can date you. By the end of March I'm always at my most lacklustre (probably an oxymoron but you know what I mean). This year it's worse than ever because of the crazy way my diary has panned out since the middle of January. There's been something exciting lined up for every [...]

At last, it's officially Spring (although the weather gods still seem to have their ear muffs on). Within the next month we'll have that first glorious day when you can feel the good times coming. So, let's talk about clothes again and easy ways to update your wardrobe for Spring 2023. With an eye on sustainability I've been keeping quiet on the shopping front for a while. I don't feel it's right to keep pushing ill considered purchases with the [...]

Blogger sale raising funds for Blood Cancer UK

And I need to reduce my 'capsule' by about 50% because we're planning to reconfigure our dressing room and I have to get it to a sensible [...]

Travelling to the Masai Mara - Kenya safari review Oh my goodness the weather! Let me take you to the sunshine as a reminder that it's out there somewhere and will be with us soon. So, as I ended last week's Kenya safari review post, we were having an early night before our long journey to the Masai Mara. It was a break of day start and it took all morning to get there. You may remember that we'd [...]

By |2023-03-13T16:56:17+00:00March 3rd, 2023|Categories: Style, Travel|Tags: , , , , , , |

I don't know how I'm going to encapsulate our Kenya safari trip but since I've started writing one thing's become clear - even though it was only a week it's going to take two posts! I talked about some of the lessons learned in last Friday's post and I have some absolutely stunning photos because Mal was in his element.
