Dreaming of Summer and Ice Cream
I just love Ice Cream. It is a fact that everyone close to me knows very well, I’ve even put it on my Twitter profile. Chocolate, toffee, caramel and coffee (made a rhyme there!) are my fave flavours, but I’m also very partial to Vanilla as long as it is Cornish, or mint choc chip too. Ice Cream Sundaes are definitely amongst my very favourite things, and now I seem to be passing this passion onto Joe. Check out the photographic evidence below for further proof. Part of the charm of traditional ice cream is eating it from a van, in Summer sunshine. When I pay a visit to my…

My Fort Shopping Challenge
The Fort Shopping Centre is a Birmingham Shopping Destination that offers more than 40 stores and restaurants including Debenhams, New Look, Evans and JD Sports. I was recently asked if I wanted to take part in a special blogger challenge that Fort had planned. Could I put together a capsule outfit for the new year for £50? I obviously jumped at the chance! So last Saturday I made my way to The Fort. After a lovely lunch at the Harvester Restaurant, I left Pete and Joe to look around the sports shops whilst I searched for a great outfit. I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted, but did know that…

And ten mysterious statues sitting on a mantlepiece, that, one by one, start to disappear and break as the guests are picked off by a murderous assassin, out to dish the justice they thought they had escaped. This is the premise of the 2015 version of the classic Agatha Christie play ‘And then there was none’, which opened last night at Wolverhampton’s Grand Theatre. A classy…

A fashion for Eyebrows
I must admit, the one part of my beauty regime that I sometimes neglect is my eyebrows. I do pluck and shape, and am a little obsessed with Blink products that slightly darken my quite light brows, but, in general, I find that this is an area I often ignore when applying make-up to the rest of my face. This is a shame really, as eyebrows can completely change the look of your face, with perfect brows something that modern day stars like Cara Delevingne have become famous for. Cosmetic Surgery experts Transform have just celebrated their 40th birthday, and, as part of the celebrations, they have produced a series…

Put your love in print with Easy Art
One of the loveliest and most personal of gift choices this Valentine’s Day is the gift of Art.

Easy Art have a, quite frankly, huge collection of Art prints that come in a range of sizes that they can also frame for you. Their collection ranges from classic and contemporary art work by artists ranging from Turner to Warhol, classic photographic imagery of works from the Kobal Collection and…
