A career as a live-in nanny – why it might work for you.
If you have been thinking about a career based around children, you may want to consider the role of a live-in nanny. This is a role that is very rewarding, come with lots of perks, including accommodation (especially attractive if you want to live in London), working in a family setting, and can also be a gateway into other careers that involve children, including play-work and teaching. The role of a live in nanny is both rewarding and diverse. You can choose the age of children that you prefer to work with, and can offer extended hours – i.e babysitting, or working extended days, in return for a higher…

Female Hair Loss – Another taboo subject
Like most women, I am a little vain when it comes to my hair. I keep it long, colour it a lighter shade of blonde on a regular basis, and generally swing and toss it about as much as possible for effect. I really can’t begin to understand how it would feel like to lose my hair – I know I would be devastated. And yet, this is more common that we think…or at least talk about.

Buckley London Capri Collection
Buckley London is a jewellery collection I have long been familiar with.

Fashion Week is the most gorgeous and glamorous event to hit London and I am very pleased to say that, this season, I have a small role in it through a competition that I am taking part in with Ladbrokes Bingo.

Everything else is down…

The Brides Trail launch at the Grosvenor Casino
I have been to lots of launches in my time as a blogger. Restaurants, hotels, fashion ranges, new beauty products, even toy launches – I have done them all. But I had never been to a book launch, which is unusual, as I am a voracious reader who loves a new book and book shops more than, well, pretty much everything. But all this changed on Monday night, when I , accompanied by my sister Jodie, attended the launch of the latest thriller from author AA Abbott. The Brides Trail follows the mysterious disappearance of a glamorous croupier, Kat, and the race to find her by her friends, and also…
