Although the discussion about mental health has opened up tremendously in recent years, I still find talking about my mental health very tough to do. I’m worried about what people think, I don’t want to sound like I’m over exaggerating and I don’t want to lumber other people with my problems. It’s a struggle. I’ve [...]
Every winter I always suffer a bout of SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), where I lack motivation to do anything and just feel a bit ‘meh’, during the colder months. As much as I love Christmas and the festive season, once that is over, I always suffer with the ‘January Blues’. I hate the cold and [...]
Being part of the fashion influencer industry I feel that there is always a pressure to stay on top of the latest trends, which ultimately leads me to unnecessarily buying new clothes. But in a bid to be more environmentally conscious this year, I'm trying to make some small changes. Having studied fashion at college [...]
2020, a New Year...and a New Decade. I love the New Year, there's something about a fresh start which brings so much excitement for the future. However, the new year can also bring a lot of pressure. The pressure to be a better version of yourself and the pressure to stick to resolutions. This year, [...]
Christmas is fast approaching, and as much as it should be a time for relaxing, enjoying yourself and eating so many roast potatoes that come Boxing Day you resemble one yourself, it can also be fairly stressful.

I can't be the only one who struggles with dry dull skin in the cooler months. In the summer months my skin is always glowing, but come October the lack of vitamin d really does start to take its toll. Alya Skin is a brand that I've recently become quite familiar with. I came across [...]
I can't believe I'm writing my first Christmas post of the year, I'm literally bursting with excitement! Christmas is one of the most celebrated holidays in the UK calendar, one in which seems to start earlier and earlier every year. Sainsbury's were stocking Christmas treats all the way back in August; I don't know about [...]
I’ve gone on and on about how back in July I started my year as an intern. Typically, intern wages are never great, some companies don’t even pay interns, awful, I know. Luckily, I’ve bagged myself one that pays decent. Having said this, I’ve still been a student for two years and even now have [...]
So, somehow, it’s already halfway through November. The past 11 months have absolutely flown by; I know I say this every year, but they really have this year! I think as I get older and have more and more going on in my life, the quicker time seems to go! Gone are the days of [...]
