Key information your hair stylist needs to know.
Ever had a nightmare hair cut at the hairdressers? I have. It happened at the end of the summer, when I went to have my hair dyed. I went in with a picture of Christina Hendricks, hoping for a slightly darker version of my already naturally red hair. However I came out with something pinkish/purplish…

Sunday night feeling
Hi there, how was your weekend? We had a pretty quiet one around here which was just what we needed. Saturday was spent catching up with friends over brunch and then relaxing in front of the TV in the evening. Bliss. We’ve been really bay the past few weekends and so it was good to…

Getting organised for Christmas
For today’s Friday links I thought that I would share a few organising tips, tricks and freebie check lists that I’ve seen on some of my regular blog reads this week. I’ve pinned all of these and have started to use some of them already. It’s helped me to get the never ending ‘to do’ lists…

December reflections
December is just a few days away and I wanted to think about a way to mark the month this year. I’ve been inspired by Ali Edwards, who runs a ‘December daily’ challenge each year and tries to document each day in December via scrapbooking.
