I’m currently drinking possibly one of the strongest teas I have ever made, wrapped up in my cosiest fluffy pj’s, with fluffy socks that definitely don’t match, and all my candles are burning. It’s 9pm and I have just laid down after one of the busiest days at work. I’m about to turn over and allow my sleepy eyes the rest they rightly deserve, until that familiar theme tune begins to play, and every muscle in my body beams with excitement. It’s love island time.

I have taken up running. Just on the treadmill in my local gym, as I haven’t braved running in the wild outdoors yet. But I have surprisingly come to enjoy it, not only because it makes me feel accomplished and good about myself, but it has allowed me to find my favourite thinking spot in the whole world.

The Golden Globes Awards took place just a few days ago, and the red carpet featured a reunion I never knew I needed.

Actresses we looked up to as children on the big screen, and now we get that chance again. Looking up to them, now, as strong, independent women. Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, and Zendaya, stood that evening, all as award nominees.

Hello 2025. I am saying this from within my fresh, teddy bear bedding, new Boux Avenue Pj’s, with 3 burning candles - gingerbread, vanilla and linen- all in the comfort of my childhood home.

The windows are frosty, the fireplace is burning, presents are wrapped under the tree, and the sun is still waiting to rise. It’s the 25th of December- my favourite day EVER! Its finally Christmas again…

The York Christmas Markets are my favourite place to be in December. The endless trail of stalls with offerings of scarves, candles, baked goods, and genuinely the nicest hot dog I may have ever had.

As I was smelling every gingerbread candle I could get my hands on (spoiler- I ended up buying one), eyeing up every brownie and cookie stall I could see (another spoiler- I got one of each), and oozing over the jewellery store that had the most gorgeous and unusual rings I’d ever seen (no spoiler this time they were too expensive), my attention was undoubtedly being pulled elsewhere.

I used to thrive in a slicked back hair style. I loved waking up a couple of sleeps after a wash day and feeling the readiness in my roots to be drawn back into a sleek style for the foreseeable.

Picture this, it’s Friday the 29th at around 9 am, I’ve just woke up in my snowman pjs, hair isn’t brushed yet, and I still have sleep in my eyes.

Do you ever watch a film, and you are immediately inspired? An inspiration that lingers in your mind for days and intrudes on every choice you make for the foreseeable. Well… me too. I watched The Devil Wears Prada the other day for the millionth time (roughly), and now every single outfit I leave the house in is just never enough.

On this Wednesday evening, my hair is greasy, my legs need shaving, and I think my body is ready for some utter relaxation. An everything shower is calling my name…

By the time you’re reading this, America will have long announced their new president. The person who will stand tall representing the nation, enforcing the laws, and communicating with the rest of the world.

If you’re on the same side of TikTok as I am, then you will know all about the breakup between Vincent Gigante and Sam Kelly. The infamous TikTok influences from New Jersey that have left everybody heartbroken and questioning if love even exists anymore on the social media platform.

I’m currently stuck in traffic, Adele blaring through the speakers, heating on full blast and the lights flashing red to green, and I’m still not moving.
