January 1st is often a day of interspection for a lot of us, as we consider our new years resolutions and personal goals for the coming 12 months. For me stepping in to 2024 I've been reflecting on a chance encounter that occurred late last year (isn't that weird saying that already!) that really left a lasting positive impression on my work to come. One of my favourite publications Sunday Girl held an incredible event bustling with other business women sharing their talents, and that's where I met Aisha of Write Yourself Well. As I sat and listened to her performance her artistry instantly resonated...

It's Christmas, and what better way to celebrate than by sharing one of the most joyful wedding mornings I've had in a while?   After an early morning driving along single track lanes and idyllic winding roads I reached the picturesque location for Kirsty and Gav's wedding nestled in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales.  Set in converted race horse stables, The Saddle Room in Leyburn is delightfully unique venue and the onsite cottage the couple were staying in was the perfect location for their wedding morning as they kicked the day off in full celebratory swing.     Kirsty...

My latest work with QP Jewellers was for the AW23 collection, and one thing about working on campaigns is how funny to be preparing for seasons you're not in!

A pinch me moment, something I could have only dreamt of back in lockdown when I was working hard developing the Jo Leversuch Makeup Brush Collection, my brushes are now stocked in store at Wolf & Badger!

  It's a distant memory now, but I wont ever forget about staying at The Hiveaway in Wales earlier this year. As the seasons change and I yearn for a cosy little get away, I can't help but reminisce and think about how perfect this place would be for a lot of my brides for some kind of mini moon get away, or even a break from the stress of planning pre-wedding! Getting some rest before the big day does do wonders for the skin afterall. Me and my partner stayed in The Hyde cabin which is incredible and remincent of a beehive with all the hexagonal shapes. On arrival we took the road through...

I'm all about embracing the turning seasons, but the switch from Summer to Autumn is definitely the hardest for me as my body struggles to cope with all the change. Almost 99% of the time I will catch the worst cold and my immune system takes a massive dive, but since my menopause it's been twice as difficult as I struggle to bounce back as quickly as I used to.   I've already been enjoying I AM FOCUSED by Phyto Nectars throughout the summer, so I was excited to see what their I AM RESILENT drink could do for me during this challenging transitional period. I stocked up on this specific...
