I've seen this tag cropping up everywhere over the last few weeks and it just screams my name. I love lipstick and it's a rare occurrence that you'll catch me without one on, or at the very least in my handbag ready to be whipped out and applied at any given moment. There's a great episode of Mad Men where Peggy talks about lipstick and how no woman wants be just a shade of many and it's true - you make lipstick your own and it can look completely different from one person to the next. I could wax lyrical about lipstick all day, but let's just get on to the tag!

TAG - Lip Product Addict

The back of my phone sports a mosaic of cracks, whilst the front of my phone relies on a screen protector to keep it from falling apart.

So when the lovely folks from Mr Nutcase* got in touch and asked if I'd like to create a custom iPhone case I was eager to get on board.

Top 8 Swimsuit Picks for Summer 2014
This year I have the pleasure of spending my summer in sunny San Diego where, unlike British summertime, swimwear can actually be worn outdoors without fear of a dramatic weather change minutes later. Naturally the promise of glorious sunshine got me thinking about what kind of clothes to pack/looking for any reason to justify shopping, especially in terms of beach wear, so after much deliberation I've compiled my top 8 swimsuit picks for summer 2014.

Aunty Betty's Ice Cream Parlour
I am a recovering sugar fiend and a self confessed health freak. So much so that anybody who has spent a great deal of time with me will probably tell you that my eating habits just plain piss them off.

Film Review: Bad Neighbours
Yesterday my last student loan of the semester came in and in true baller style I headed down to my local cinema and splashed out a whole £2 (thank you Orange Wednesdays!) to see Bad Neighbours. There are two types of people who go to see this film - those who go to see it because it looks absolutely hilarious and those who go to see it because the beautiful specimen that is Zac Efron has a lead role. My flatmate was neither of these so I had to use both arguments on her to convince her to come. Her main opposing argument being - won't it be completely predictable?
