Im a big fan of the Emerald Street daily emails from the team behind Stylist Magazine. Last week, Emerald Street teamed up with John Lewis for a "Beauty in the Spotlight" event which a friend...
Upon spotting a sold gold (as in gold-coloured not real gold) metal collar my first thought was "I NEED THIS". A more normal thought would probably be "what the hell is this" or "...
Checking in to let you know about a weekend treat - Motel Rocks are offering 20% off with the code MEMORIALDAY (valid until 9am on Monday morning) to celebrate the opening of the US sight. Could be a...
Im pretty lazy when it comes to painting my nails. I go through phases of painting them regularly and then weeks go by when I just cant be bothered. Ive had Gelish/Shellac nails twice in the past and...
I havent done a photo round-up post for a while. Heres what Ive been doing:1. Baking (not going to lie, it was a Weight Watchers cupcake mix). I dont do cooking.2. Graze box (use my code 7KN159X for ...
Way back in November, although under not so different weather conditions, I attended the Clothing At Tesco press day. The clothes I had a sneak peek of then are now in stores, how time flies! I was g...
A few weeks ago I had a bit of a panic that I didnt have enough office appropriate summer clothes. Not to worry, though. It still feels like winter outside so I havent needed to manically purchase an...
It might be May but so far these are the only outings that my summer dresses have had this year. I might need to start booking more holidays just so I can justify my rather large dress collection...L...
I recently escaped the "spring" weather with a trip to Marrakech. My mum and I spent 5 days staying in a beautiful Riad, exploring the city and mainly enjoying the sun and being somewhere so ...
Im not a GlossyBox subscriber so it was a lovely surprise to find this months box on my doorstep. For April, GlossyBox have gone with a "natural" theme. I like the idea of having a themed box...
Ive used 17 cosmetics for years, definitely far before I was actually 17 and even now at the grand old age of 24 they are still a brand that I go to for affordable but great quality make-up. 17 are o...
As an avid reader of Stylist and its daily Emerald Street email, I couldnt resist booking myself and a friend a 2 for 1 afternoon tea at Podium Park Lane. Podium offer a chocolate afternoon tea which...
Time flies when youre having fun. More accurately, I think, time flies by faster the older you get. How has Easter already been and gone? Wasnt New Years Eve, like, two weeks ago? And why does it sti...
Since getting an iPhone Ive experimented with a fair few apps. Some have been brief infatuations, others annoying addictions (Angry Birds, anyone?) but a few have proved to be genuinely useful additi...
Last weekend I attended the Aussie More More More catwalk show in celebration of the huge Aussie bottles (mine are still going strong, I promise that I do actually wash my hair!). After eating a fair...
Those of you who follow me on Twitter will know that for the past few weeks Hannah and I were busy devoting our weekends (and sometimes evenings) to the Big Egg Hunt. I ended up finding 187 out of 21...
I am a fickle creature. No sooner have I bought my "I want it now, must have it NOW!" purchase I quickly start lusting after something else. Occasionally, though, I buy something that I just ...
How fast are the weeks going by? Im sure the older I get the faster the time goes by. I am already feeling like its summer even though its only April 1st but I love summer and pretty much wear summer...
To coincide with my spending ban, all of my make-up seems to have run out, broken or gone missing. Instead of running to Boots and manically throwing things into my basket Ive had to delve into my bi...
Summer is here! Well, it feels like it. Hard to believe that its still March so Im not putting my winter clothes away just yet. However, this weekend it was time to get out the summer shorts, and my ...
What a week! Summer finally feels like it has arrived, Im already embracing the summer wardrobe and Ive walked about 100 miles all over London in pursuit of eggs. As you do. The photos:1 - 2. Motel s...
Psst, just a super quick post to let you know that Motel are holding a sample sale tomorrow and Friday at their London HQ from 10am - 7pm.Prices start from only £3. Im very tempted to break my shoppi...
Another week gone. I am still keeping up my spending ban but its not all bad, turns out there are other things to do do in London than shop:1. Graze box. Im still not bored of these. They save me fro...
My eyebrows and I have not always got along. When I was younger I used to get teased for having dark, thick brows which contrasted rather oddly with my blonde hair. I wasnt allowed to pluck them at t...
Another week of playing instagram catch-up. I feel like it was only a week ago that I was celebrating the start of 2012 and now its halfway through March. Im sure time only goes by faster the older y...
A new work outfit...with a difference. In keeping with my last post and avoiding buying anything new I delved deep into my wardrobe to see whats lurking in there and found this dress:Dress: Zara, Jum...
My name is Lily and Im an impulse buyer. I just cant help it. I have items in my wardrobe that still have the tags on them. New purchases often remain in carrier bags for over a week before I remembe...
A little more than a week in photo form:1. Dinner at Pho - still obsessed with all things noodle. I should probably learn how to cook them myself.2. Spring is coming...maybe? Is it? I hope so. Im try...
Im a huge fan of Soap and Glorys bath products but had no idea that they had a make-up range until quite recently. I havent heard an awful lot about the products so couldnt resist purchasing last mon...
Make-up wise, weekends are a time for me to either try out something different (working in an office doesnt give any opportunities for make-up experimentation during the week) or keep things simple a...
