The way you treat people matters.
Sometimes you come across a person who pushes your buttons and makes you reconsider your position on murdering people {I’m anti-murdering people generally, FYI}. This person pushing your buttons ruffles your feathers, fires you up, makes you want to scream. And maybe I want to. Maybe I think that the best way to get through…

My mum staples her chips packets.
I went to the ‘snacks’ cupboard at our office today. I work with my Mum, we share an office. I knew I was pretty much out of appropriate snacks and was going to pinch some of the plain Kettle chips she had rolling around in there and say nothing more about it. Reaching for them, I…

I would anything for stats but I won’t do that!
In blogging it’s about knowing who YOU are. Knowing what YOUR limits are. Knowing what you’re happy to do or not do to grow your blog. To flog your blog, to be a bit crass about it. For me I exploit the tales of my Hubby and my family and friends for personal gain. Sure…

A ramblings one just showed up.
I don’t know if it was the LemSip MAX {not sponsored} or the copious amount of time spent napping in the past day or two, but all of a sudden I had some random ramblings and I thought I might share them. They’re not overly thoughtful nor meaningful, but they’re here. That’s what counts. Sometimes…

Remembering Why.
Sometimes I like to take a moment and remember why I blog. For what reason. To what end. Why? I ponder the opportunities that have been presented to me. The brand events, the conferences, the lunches. The friends, the amazing jaw dropping stuff, the trolls. Every now and again I think you have to sit…

Sort Of Committed.

I would once and for all make a move towards loosing all the weight that I no longer wish…

When boredom meets Sunday you get this. Apparently.
Today I got bored. So I straightened my hair. And you know this guy, well he was next {note the combed through heat protect} He was a good sport. And we laughed. A lot! And then I did my make up for some outfit photos. Zipped up my new boots in a swift costume change.…

ECCO World’s Longest Runway AND ME!?
Early last week I received an email asking if I could fill in for someone who could no longer attend the ECCO shoes World’s Longest Catwalk event. Sure, I said. No problem. They were willing to fly me down and back, give me shoes and lunch. What’s not to love, right? I even managed to…

This is how we do it.
Often I’m asked how I maintain the post schedule that I do. Maintain the commenting, the interacting and the replies to emails and comments. All the stuff that makes a blog interactive and growing. The answer freaks most people out. Seriously, this is not a small job. So you’ve been warned, this post may not…

From Office to Dinner and Beyond {She Wore What}
Sometimes I like to grab a drink after work with my colleagues, occasionally dinner with Hubby. I’m sure if you lived somewhere cooler you would do it much more often than we do. Finding something to wear to work that fits a professional image but then transitions into night time attire can be a bit of a mission.…
