Hiking with McMillan

I recently took part in a Mighty Hike event in aid of McMillan Cancer support. We entered as a group and walked 26.7 miles to raise money. I would say 26 miles however, that .7 of a mile was an absolute killer so it is very important to include it. 

A Breath of Fresh Air

The end of the school term is fast approaching. We took time off from our massive to-do list for some well-needed mountain air.

Serenity Spa, Seaham Hall

My mums quite tricky to buy for. It was her birthday recently and I didn't want to buy her any old tat just to say happy birthday. So I thought I'd buy her an experience and treat her (and myself) to a twilight evening at Seaham Hall Serenity Spa. 

Harop tarn, Thirlmere

Hello, I'm back! I've had a very long break, but thought i'd kick things off with our most recent adventure in the Lake District was to Harop Tarn.

Beauty | Highstreet Skin Care

I always love reading other peoples skin care routines to get an idea of what products I could use in my own. Quite frankly I am absolutely rubbish at looking after my skin. I'm more of a face wipe gal. *gasps in horror*

However lately I've made a conscious effort to improve my skin - if you have a skin care routine, you have your life together right?

Lifestyle | Barter Books, Alnwick

It's the Easter holidays, yay! I have a full 2 weeks to sleep and recover. Last week we were driving back from Holy Island and decided to stop off in Alnwick. I'd heard about Barter Books before and decide to pop in to see what all of the fuss was about.

Beauty | Violet Voss Holy Grail Pallet

Recently I purchased a new eyeshadow pallet. I'm a very much die hard fan of the Urban Decay Naked pallets however, I thought I'd be brave and branch out. After much consideration, reading numerous reviews and watching makeup tutorials on youtube I went for the Violet Voss Holy Grail pallet. What a choice it was, I am obsessing over it!
