Festive Giving

o easy to get wrapped up in stresses of Christmas, we forget that ultimately the holiday is about giving, sharing and kindness. If you still have last minute Christmas gifts to buy (and even if you haven't) then I urge you to donate to any of the very worthy charities below.  You can either do it your own name or in that of a friend or family member, who I'm sure would appreciate it as much an actual wrapped up gift under the tree.

Time for a Blog Giveaway

It feels as though it has been way too long since I last did a blog giveaway, so to make up for it I've pulled together the biggest assortment of goodies.  In the past, I've done giveaways featuring a single palette or a couple of small items but this time I wanted to do something a little bit more special.  I pulled together a big bundle of lovely prizes and I'm still adding to it, so there will be even more up for grabs than in the pictures.

Thoughts of the Month: What’s Next

One of the questions I get asked over and over again is why I spend so much time in LA, especially when I refer to myself as a "Londoner" or "London blogger" so often.  I wrote a "Thoughts of the Month" blogpost nearly a year ago touching on my reasons behind crossing the Atlantic and now seems like an apt time to re-address it since March will sadly be the last month I spend in Los Angeles before returning to my hometown, London, full time.  Now that this chapter is coming to an end I wanted to share my thoughts on what happens after you take the plunge.

Five Favourite: Christmas Presents

I'm starting a new series on the blog called Five Favourites.  It pretty much says it in the name but the idea is to feature my five favourite/most recommended everything.  I hope it will give me the opportunity to talk about topics outside the realm of fashion and beauty which is my usual niche.  In this series I will also be touching on travel, restaurants, food, experiences and fitness to name a few.I thought as I had a few requests to do a "What I Got For Christmas..." post, I would combine it with this and do my "Five Favourite: Christmas Presents".
