Last weekend I celebrated my twenty fourth birthday and as a treat my boyfriend, Tom took me away for the night to the beautiful Yorkshire town of Harrogate. It is only an hours drive away from where I live, so Tom came up from London and I packed my bag and together we drove over on Saturday, ready to explore.

Bake | Homemade Scones
So it's no secret I love a good cup of tea. This week I thought I would try baking the perfect partner to the great British brew, the scone! This was my first attempt at the traditional pastry so I thought I'd follow an experts recipe. And who better to ask for advice than the Queen herself, Mary Berry.

Travel | Girls trip to Barcelona
September has flown by and it’s probably because
there has been so much going on in my life recently. I officially started a new
job, I turned the grand old age of 24 and in the middle of that I jetted off to
Barcelona with my best friend, Chloe for a weekend away. It was an amazing five days full
of sightseeing, shopping and sun. I loved catching up with Chloe, who was my fellow Style Editor with me at Uni and who I don’t
see enough of. Here is a little snippet of what we got up to…

My LFW Favourites
Hi guys,
London
Fashion Week has been and gone and hasn’t it been amazing? I love watching and
searching through all the amazing shows afterwards. There are some many
talented designers from the UK, I love being inspired by these innovative and creative minds.
I thought I’d share
with you some of my favourite stand out pieces and designers from the past week
and shows I have loved.

Style | Mono Checks
Hi guys,
So September means two things: the arrival of fashion week and (more importantly) my birthday! Yey!
I headed to the shops last week, for the first time
in ages, with the intention of getting some ideas for my birthday wish list.
However this coat jumped out at me and I just had to get it there and then.

Something to celebrate...
Hi Guys,
I love the little luxuries in life and spending the
afternoon sipping tea and having a good catch up is definitely one of my
favourite things to do.
Last week I headed to Clitheroe for celebratory afternoon
tea with my mum after work. It was such a lovely way to start the weekend I
thought I would share some of my photos and thoughts with you.
It was a rainy Friday afternoon so it was nice to shelter in
the warmth of the Garden Kitchen nursery tearoom in Holden just outside Clitheroe...

DIY | 5 minute Ripped Jeans Tutorial
Hi Guys,
I have been having a clear out of my wardrobe recently and
been replacing old clothes with new season updates. Jeans are a staple which I
wear a lot and because of this I often buy a new pair each season to replace
the old, well worn ones.
Instead of throwing my old jeans out this season I
thought I would recycle them and do a little DIYing on them. I love the ripped
jean trend this season so thought it was the perfect excuse to grab the
scissors and chop away.
This is a really easy
DIY that can be done in 5 minutes, so what are you waiting for?
