Bottomless brunch at Las Iguanas, Birmingham

If you’ve read my post all about the transformation at Las Iguanas, Nottingham then you’ll already know I’m a big big fan. In fact my boyfriend Jordan loves the place and, let me tell you, he doesn’t love many things! We’ve known that Las Iguanas has been serving up brunch for a while now but we’ve never set aside the time to give it a try. So, a couple of weeks ago when we were in Birmingham, we visited Las Iguanas Temple St. to put it to the test! We arrived early. So early that they weren’t even open yet. We…

Airbnb: Thoughts from a first-timer and the hidden gem I found

I had always been sceptical (to say the least!) about Airbnb. I’d read a few horror stories, seen a couple of bad reports and had never really considered booking with them to be honest because of what I’d heard. That was until I was desperately hunting for somewhere half-decent but also affordable for us to stay during our break away in the summer. We hoped to extend our seaside break to Scarborough for an extra night in York – a little stop off on the way home if you like. Hotels were averaging at between £70 and £90 a night…

A little chat about my blogging journey and what I’ve learned from it so far

I’ve been in and out of the blogging loop for the majority of my blogger life to be honest. Definitely for at least the last couple of years. So if you’re still here, thank you for joining me. I’m glad you could make it. When I started in January 2016 I felt excited, full of energy and buzzing to share my ideas with the world. I used to log onto my computer every night to either read blogs or write my own posts. I used to feel like I’d let myself down if I didn’t post at least three times…

5 struggles I have when it comes to creating kick-ass fashion content

Fashion content is some of my favourite content to create. However I very rarely publish fashion-related posts and that’s because I find fashion content so hard to create. It’s not for lack of inspiration, I am bursting with inspiration! Seeing my fave blogging gals push out killer posts day-in day-out pushes me to do the same. But there’s a few obstacles in my way, and I’m hoping I’m not alone. I often dress with convenience in mind rather than fashion If I’m going to share an outfit then it needs to be an outfit I adore, that I feel fabulous…

Monthly highlights: May 2018

It’s been a while since I did a good old monthly highlights post. My last one was all the way back in January. I didn’t even realise it was that long ago to be honest! Maybe I’ve been lazy or maybe I’ve just had an uneventful few months. Who knows? All I know is I am back with a bumper monthly highlights so buckle up kiddos. Is Summer finally here? May brought us some fantastic weather, did it not? Us Brits love to complain about our (usually) less than impressive weather but honestly I think May brought us more sunny…
