Manchester is such an amazing place to live because there is always something going on. To prove this point I found out that Boots (Market Street) will be offering free skin consultations with No7 experts this Wednesday (18th April) between 6pm and 8pm, and sadly I cannot go as I’m already fully booked! I’m now … Continue reading Skin consultations this Wednesday in Manchester

And when I “ended up” there today I came across this gorgeous DESIGNED BY collection – an exclusive premium capsule collection featuring beautiful digi prints.

A headline “On The Gossip Girl Set: all the fab fashion moments” can only mean an unproductive afternoon. I’m loving these photos from the set of Gossip Girl that were published on Look.co.uk today. I only recently watched Gossip Girl for the first time, courtesy of a friend’s box set, and although it falls into the … Continue reading Gossip Girl style: print skirts with casual tops
