November in Pictures.

I've been wanting and meaning to throw myself back into this blog for a while now, but life got on top of me a little, so I'm throwing myself back in with a bit of a soft post: November in Pictures. I'm going select a picture from every day in November that represents that day…

Christmas 2017 for me: everything from veganism to working in retail

Gosh. Christmas is over. It's been a chaotic blur of working, sleeping, many cups of coffee and spending unrealistic amounts on my loved ones. But so what? It's Christmas! The New Year is heading our way and it won't be long until retailers stock up on their next occasion's merchandise (Valentines comes to mind). Time…

Breathe. It’s Christmas Eve. (My Christmas Eve)

You may have noticed my little absence from blogmas. You may have not. Either way, it does not matter, but I have been gone and have not had a time in the world to think. Where have I been? Why have I been gone? The simple answer is, I've been working. I absolutely adore my…

“Does that sleepy stuff really work?” – Lush review and Christmas present tips

As you may already know, I work for a pretty goddamn amazing company. That company, who fight against animal testing, and for sustainable living, to name just a few wonderful attributes, is called Lush. There's a lot you may have seen about the company recently, but the one I'm homing in on today is the…

Cocoamas (vegan advent calender battle)

I remember going into Holland and Barrett last year and noticing a vegan advent calendar, but also noticing that within days, it was gone. At the time I was not vegan so it didn't hugely impact my life, apart from when I was searching desperately for one as a present for my vegan friend. Sadly,…

The Christmas tag

The Christmas tag? In the middle of the week?! What could you love more than that! I did plan to post this on Monday but if you're able to give my past two posts a read you'll understand why it's not been posted. I still wanted to do it, though, so did a little rejig.…

Merry Pupmas

Hello, hello, hello! You may have noticed my absence yesterday,or maybe not. I did make it up to you earlier by still honouring day 4 of Blogmas... just on day 5. In my defence, I truly needed to put my health over anything, including this blogging thing I love to do, as aforementioned. I mention…

(self)care at Christmas

The Christmas period can be a pretty overwhelming time of year; whether that's due to changes in your physical and/or mental health, or your job picking up the pace a little, or just the stress of present buying, fitting seeing everyone important to you in and the general family stresses you face on the day.…

Let’s adventure into chaos! (Why did I visit the Boxing Day Sales?)

Disclaimer: I know this is a little late. I did write it on boxing day. Okay, the title may be a little dramatic. I only visited two shops in a comparably quiet retail park, but my Grandad was in a bit of a panic about being out of the house on Boxing Day. Half way…
