The other day my partner and I went upstairs for a screw. NO - it's not what you're thinking. It's far sexier than that. I'm referring to assembling flat pack furniture (wahoo!). If a global pandemic wasn't enough of a relationship survival test, my fiancé and I decided to level up our adulting endeavours and… Continue reading Stripped

Brace Face
Back in my day (when we were allowed outside) life's beauty procedures were less 'Instagram and Botox' and more 'pick out a colour for your train-track braces' #thosewerethedays. If, like me, you wore dental braces through school (complete with bushy hair and an oversized backpack), you'll remember the pain well. So, I was disappointed to… Continue reading Brace Face
‘Tis the Season – to be wondering what the f*** 2020 was all about
2020 has been the gift that keeps on giving - except you didn't ask for it and can't return it because it didn't come with a receipt.

But you know you're an adult in 2019 when these drunken regrets mostly relate to Bottomless Brunch (oh dear). If you're new to Bottomless Brunch, it's a chance to shove as much Prosecco and Avocado in your face as you… Continue reading The Hunger Games: Bottomless Brunch
Reader, I bought it (and now I regret it)
It was only the other day, when I was online shopping-not-shopping, I somehow pressed the 'order now, have it tomorrow!' button. As it turns out, the power of persuasion really doesn't make your dreams comes true... But it does bring you an unnecessary and probably not environmentally sustainable fancy dress costume. Friend: "what have you… Continue reading Reader, I bought it (and now I regret it)
