    23/09/2012 - By 

    I got these puppies in the post this week; a sample a of the new make-up collection, Wild about Beauty, from Louise Redknapp and her pal/make-up artist Kim Jacob. First up, I love the goth, dark aubergine packaging with silver embossed handwriting and beautiful black illustrations of various fauna. It’s…

    20/09/2012 - By 

    I nipped into Boots for a mega dose of Echinacea (my first winter cold is in full flow) and came out with this £2 leave-in hair conditioner from Vitapointe. £2! I grant you, it isn’t the more glamorous looking of products, but boy does it work. Since getting my hair…

    My new set of wheels

    19/09/2012 - By 

    She’s a beaut huh? I just stopped on my way back from the shop to take this snap. The Italian, rather romantically, got me an original 1970 Raleigh Caprice for my birthday, a grown-up version of my very first bike in the early 80s. It’s even in the same metallic…

    CF Review: The Railway, Honiton

    17/09/2012 - By 

    When everyone from your mother to the Devon Twitterati (Kirstie Allsopp included) mention a ‘great little pub doing modern Italian food up a side street in Honiton’, you know you need to pay a visit. Only 8 miles from our front door we finally nipped over for my birthday dinner…

    16/09/2012 - By 

    So, I have purple hair. It’s only just sinking in. Here I am yesterday, pre-appointment with just your average brown mop. I had this shot firmly pinned to my Pinterest board to show my stylist the deep violet hues I wanted on my tips: First up we had to lighten…

    Ombre hair

    14/09/2012 - By 

    Ombre, dip-dyed, balayage… whatever you want to call it. I’m getting it done! When I sent out a tweet yesterday asking if getting your hair dip-dyed a/ if you’re not under 25 b/ or in a band was okay, I was thrilled to get the green light from my London…

    I finally did it. I pinned. Search me out under ‘countryfille’. So far I have stuck on a virtual board: photos of hot men in cardigans and cute pictures of kittens. From what I can gather it’s pretty much like my bedroom wall circa 1995. On a serious note, I…

    I Love Mel colouring books

    11/09/2012 - By 

    Now, my husband swears that my 10 month old son picked this out himself as my first ‘mummy’ birthday present, I’m a little dubious because *even* he couldn’t be THAT good. How genius is this?! On a cold, wet afternoon who doesn’t want to get out their Caran D’Ache pencils…
