J Brand photoready skinny jeans Lately, I’ve really been focusing on those ‘wear with everything’ pieces. You know, the ones which work for most situations, can be simply mixed and matched with (hopefully) at least half your wardrobe, and still allow you to cultivate your own sense of personal style. A pair of classic black skinnies – J Brand’s photo ready jeans in this instance – are one of those pieces which just fit the bill. For the Project 333 Wardrobe Challenge, I placed a huge emphasis on selecting pieces which were undeniably simple, worked with the majority of what…
It’s taken me almost a year, but I’ve finally managed to work my way through a tube of Aesop’s Resurrection hand balm. Like any beauty product which finds itself tucked away in the folds of my handbag, it has been very well loved, if not occasionally forgotten – it can be a black hole in there occasionally.

Thick, buttery chunks of pumpkin roasted and served with feta and little else, rainy afternoons spent indoors watching…

Given I’ve been getting a little bit of eczema on my face (which I mentioned in my previous post), and had extremely dry lips, I’ve been trying to give both a little extra T-L-C. My favourite lip combo for the month has been a nightly lip scrub using the Mint Julep lip scrub from Lush, and a heavy slathering of Bite Beauty’s Agave Lip Mask to deeply moisturise my lips. It’s been the only combination of lip products that…

I’m sure I’ve mentioned this on the odd occasion before, but part of the reason it took me such. a. long. time to get into make-up is because I’ve struggled with eczema and dermatitis for the last ten years or so. Over the last few months I’ve developed a bit of redness on my face – an issue I’d never struggled with previously –…
