Designing My Dream Dress with Lunss Couture

A couple of months ago a company called Lunss Couture (ad pr) asked if I would like to design a dress with them...and of course I said yes! There has been a certain dress that I have had in my head for a while - the ultimate princess gown, but while I had found similar designs online, there hadn't been anywhere that had created the exact dress that I had in my imagination. 

Raya and the Last Dragon Movie Review

A bit of a new one for the blog, but it's a series I've been wanting to start for a long time! You may or may not know that I am absolutely obsessed with films. I often do film reviews on my InstaStories, but I thought it would be a fun idea to start posting them on the blog too! It's a topic I'm really passionate about, and I'm usually lucky enough to be given early access to new films, so it just made sense that the reviews became a thing. 

My Money Saving Tips

Since I was very young my parents have always taught me the value of money and I have always been extremely grateful that I was taught this. I remember even as a 6 year old, finding a five pound note on the floor when I was out with a friend and her mother and (after trying to hand it into security) the mother encouraged me to spend it on something I didn't really want. Afterwards, the useless item didn't even work and I was so angry that I had spent the money that I could have saved. I think this day stuck with me for the rest of my life because I have really always been a saver. 

Am I Just Bothering People With My Texts?

Lockdown has made me realise just how few people I actually speak to. I don't know if this is normal or not, but during the day I either speak to my mum or my friend Alexandra...and that's it. The times where I extend beyond this tiny circle are usually just DMs with followers, and occasionally someone I know will reply to my story and I might engage with a short interaction with them. When I hear people talking about chatting to lots of people, I get a bit bewildered. Why is it that my social circle is so small now? 

5 Things That 2020 Taught Me

For all it was worth, 2020 taught me a lot and in a funny way I feel like I learnt a lot more than I would have done if the year had been entirely normal. I know that if it had been, I would have done my standard travelling and travel content, would still be working in an office every day and most likely wouldn't have improved myself or my outlook on life. 

Doubleshot, Covent Garden

Back before Christmas I was invited down to Doubleshot in Covent Garden (ad press invite) to try out some of their brunch! I am a huge brunch fan (who isn't?!) so was excited to see what they had on offer. I'd also seen their cute interior displays before and was intrigued to see what they were doing for Christmas.
