The start of December marks the annual push of Shop Small. I'm continuing to work with American Express to highlights some of my favourites at home in Leicester.
My alarm goes off at 8.30am and my day begins. Every morning I aim to be behind my desk by 9am to slowly wind myself up for a day of work. As a freelancer, my routine (or lack of) differs to most.
I’ve been on the road a lot recently and so I’ve become more familiar with the contents I zip up for my travels. I want to give you a rundown of what goes in my wash bag and travel case.
Sometimes it's important to make time to take a step away from the fast lane of blogging. Well, on this day, I did exactly that. No motive, no places to be, just a day out with friends and away from work deadlines.
September is pretty much over and what a busy one it’s been. A trip to Leeds, visits to London for meetings and a website relaunch has seen me rack up my train miles and screen time.
At times I feel that blogging is sometimes a one-way conversation where there are elements of my work I don’t share.
This post has been a long time coming! As you can see, things look very different around here! It’s been three years since I started the blog and now I feel it’s the right time for an update.
I like print, in fact I'd go as far to say as I love print. I like the freedom and flexibility of magazine layouts, its tactility and its book-like appearance.
The feeling of being comfortable and content is something that worries me. Staying still for too long in anything I do plays on my mind. It's time for a change.
What is better than a mooch? Something made better when it’s not in your own town and somewhere new. Last week I visited Brighton to see friends and leave work stress behind in Leicester.
The desk is where I spend most of my time. How much of that time I spend productively is questionable, but nonetheless I’m at it by 9am most mornings.
Though I may share the occasional moan and tweet about how much time I spend on trains, I always choose a day out over a day at the desk.
I hope you’ve all had a fun bank holiday weekend, whether that’s consisted of a trip away or even just as enjoyable, time to do nothing.
When I think back to my earliest memories, most of my younger years were spent wearing glasses. I had quite poor sight while growing up, with one pair causing people to make references to Harry Potter.
Almost every week, I find myself heading to London for meetings and each time I leave knowing a little more about the city. I'm discussing the importance of finding balance as a frequent commuter.
Could 2023 be the ultimate year of sustainability for fashion? Probably not, but there are some positive things happening if you look for them.
