Taking Stock

Taking Stock

Inspired by Kahurangi from xox Bubbles, I wanted to jump on the Taking Stock bandwagon and share what’s going on in my life right now. You get to look into my wardrobe all the time but not so much what’s going on in my life, and I know a few of you mentioned in my reader survey that you wanted a bit more about what I’m up to on the daily, so here you go! If you want me to expand on something, leave a comment below and I’ll do my best to answer. View Post

The smart girl’s guide to New Year’s resolutions

Calvin and Hobbes New Year's resolutions by Bill Watterson

I’ve never been a big fan of New Year’s resolutions, as once January has faded they seem to have faded along with it – leaving you with a 12 month gym membership that never gets used again (seriously, gyms must be creaming it off people who never actually go), a juicer that is relegated to the back of the cupboard, a to do list a mile long that never gets a second look or a stash of nictotine patches that you’ll never actually use. Do I sound a bit cynical? Yeah, I guess I am, and that’s because I don’t think that a lot of New Year’s resolutions are well thought out.

When you set a goal for yourself at any other time of the year, you come up with a plan about how you’re going to achieve it, in what timeframe and how you will measure that achievement. So why should a goal at this time of year be any different? Check out some of my tips below for approaching common New Year’s resolutions, get your pen and paper, write your plan down and stick it somewhere that you can see it every day! View Post

Cruelty Free SAFE Shopper App

When I decided to go cruelty free with my cosmetics this year, one of the issues I faced was not knowing what was cruelty free and what wasn’t. There are a number of companies that claim to be cruelty free, but sell their products in China, where animal testing is mandatory (you can read about that here)! So, how do you figure out who you can trust?
