If you Google the term ‘newborn’, people are mixed on what age this extends to. Some say three months, while others say one month.

I Put Coconut Oil in My Hair for a Month

Ever since I went blonde, I know my hair hasn’t been at it’s healthiest. Bleaching and highlighting hair does take a serious toll on it, and I was left with lots of split ends and broken, brittle hair.

What To Pack For a C-Section

I can’t tell you how many blog posts and articles I read about packing for the hospital before Jack was born. I was so terrified I would forget something, so I actually started writing my list at around 23 weeks just so I could ensure I had everything I needed for both me and bubs. Of course,…

Kate of Arcadia: The HI Purse

If you’ve been following along with my fashion content for a while, then chances are you’ve seen my Kate of Arcadia bag pop up a million times on my blog. I purchased the Manx bag about three or four years ago and have used it everyday since. It’s hands down my favourite bag, and is the perfect…

Cleaner Cleansing With Snowberry

If there is one skincare item I religiously use twice a day, it is a cleanser. My skin just never feels clean unless I’ve cleansed after my morning shower and just before I go to bed. No matter what I’m doing or how tired I am, I will always use a cleanser twice daily. It’s funny though,…

5 Things: My Favourite Face Masks

When it comes to writing about beauty, face masks are still my favourite thing to review and try. I’m a bit of an avid face mask collector, and over the years I have literally tried hundreds of different masks!
