July Advertisers 2017

31st July 2017 4 Comments

I honestly can’t believe that July is nearly over. I’ve had a pretty frantic but awesome month to be honest. I recently quit my job of 18 months to start something slightly different (in fact it’s my first day today, wish me luck!).

I got to hang out with loads of my really lovely (blogger) friends 🙂 I went up to London twice; the first time was for the Harry Potter studio tour and the second was to check out the AW17 collection from GOSH ♥ I also rode a bike for the first time in about 20 years and nailed a pretty difficult pole move called the Superman! I also went to down to Portsmouth to have lunch with my parents, my brother and his children 🙂

Harry Potter Studio Tour

28th July 2017 22 Comments

Every month my friend, Rachael, and I make time to hang out with each other and try and do something different and fun. Among other things, we’ve been to the Foodie’s Festival, the True Crime Museum, bowling and to a spa.

But this month was one of the most exciting months so far because we only bloody went to the Harry Potter Studio Tour in London!! #HazzaP

GOSH Cosmetics | AW17 Collection*

26th July 2017 4 Comments

GOSH first landed on my radar last year when I received their nail hardener in my Girl Gang goody bag. I was thrilled to be invited to attend their SS17 launch earlier this year, but unfortunately I wasn’t able to go. They incredibly kindly sent me out some products to try out anyway! What a lovely company, right?

When I got my invite recently to check out their AW17 products, I knew I couldn’t miss it, so I travelled up to London to see what they’d come up with 🙂

10 Times Buffy Broke My Heart

24th July 2017 6 Comments

If you know anything about me, you’ll know that Buffy The Vampire Slayer has always had a special place in my heart. I started getting into it back in 2000 and the first episode I ever watched was Halloween (season 2). I know, it’s shocking that I didn’t start watching it right from the off, but I was soon hooked and have been a massive fan ever since.

(Please note that the main bulk of this post contains massive spoiler alerts, so if you’ve never seen it and think you might want to, this post is definitely not for you, sorry! ♥) If you love Buffy, then read on 🙂

Steinbeck And Shaw | Brighton*

21st July 2017 16 Comments

Last week I had the opportunity to attend the soft launch of their lastest cocktail bar in Brighton. Located at the bottom of West Street and attached to PRYZM, it honestly feels a million miles away from the usual connotations of “just another West Street bar”. For those of you not from Brighton, think of that one street in your town where you never want to go down at night because it’s full of clubbers, people throwing up and girls dropping chips all over the floor while trying to pull their knickers out of their bums. Just sayin’.

Heaven Skincare At The Grand Hotel | Brighton*

17th July 2017 6 Comments

I’ve spoken about Heaven Skincare on my blog before because, last year, I was lucky enough to win a massive goody bag from them in the Big Blogger Expo raffle!

So I was really excited to learn that the products are not only available to purchase at the spa in the Grand Hotel Brighton, but they’re also offering unique spa treatments using these incredible products.

My Top Interview Preparation Tips

14th July 2017 12 Comments

It’s always useful to prepare thoroughly for interviews. People spend ages thinking of the questions they might be asked and how to give fantastic answers, which is fab, but there are loads of other bits you can do, that you might not have thought of, to prepare yourself for the big day. Here are my top tips on preparing for interviews 🙂

Stop Snacking With Slissie*

12th July 2017 6 Comments

I have a “not so secret” secret. I’m a habitual snacker, especially when I’m at work. I start off doing really well and not succumbing to the 11am biscuit. I dutifully drink loads of water and clap myself on the back for doing so well. I eat my somewhat healthy lunch and usually save a clementine for that 3pm slump.

Meet Mr Bear

10th July 2017 28 Comments

It’s not exactly a surprise that I absolutely love cats; especially Mr Bear (my cat). He’s been moaning for ages that he only appears very briefly on my blog or pops up on Insta stories so he persuaded me it was about time he had a blog post dedicated to him!!

Brightening Up My Summer*

7th July 2017 4 Comments

I’m absolutely rubbish at dressing for summer; because most of my clothes are black. Or very dark. So this year I’ve been trying really hard to brighten up up my look for the summer months and it’s been making me feel super happy!! Here’s what I’ve bought (so far!)
