Zoflora: my favourites for making the house smell amazing!

My current favourite Zoflora scents #cleanwithme

If you’re obsessed with Zoflora, we can be friends. Thanks to lockdown, I’ve reverted back to my household cleaning obsession. I remember when I first started following Mrs Hinch a couple of years ago. The flurry she caused about keeping your house clean made it actually exciting to buy cleaning products!

To be honest, I was grateful for it back in 2018 as I had just moved in with Roband…

Grey and Navy Living Room and Dining Room Inspiration: Starting to redecorate

Grey and Navy Living Room and Dining Room Inspiration: Starting to redecorate

I never thought I would be writing interiors posts on my blog. However, the more I think about it, I can’t understand why I haven’t written many of them before.

I LOVE INTERIOR DECORATING!

I’ve always kept my love of interiors quite close to my chest. I think it’s because when I was a student, I was skint and dreaming of fine art and beautiful furniture seemed years if not decades away. I…

Albie turns one!

Albie is one!

How is Albie already ONE?! This year has flown by!

In just under a year ago we went to see him when he was only 2-3 weeks old and saw these two tiny little wriggly white puppies in a pen. As soon as I saw him, I was in love. He was the bigger, chunky one who was already being so vocal. I held him and he cried out for food so we gave him back to his pug mummy Minnie and he hasn’t stopped eating…

My April Favourites

My April Favourites!

First month of lockdown: Complete.

April 2020 is a month I don’t think I’ll ever forget! Adjusting to a new pace of life. I originally didn’t want to waste any of my makeup or skincare during the lockdown but as time has gone on I’ve realised how much applying a face of makeup can make you just feel better! Also, when am I ever going to get the time to play with it all this much and get the…

Navabi- Dressing for confidence. AD

Taking a look at this blog post you might think you’ve stumbled onto another persons blog. But no, that’s me, in a dress and heels!

Fashion and clothing isn’t somethingI am so at home in trackies, jeans, trainers and hoodies and have gotten so complacent and lazy with my “style”. I dress for comfort everyday and as most of my days revolve around tidying the house, sat working in the home…

Cooking has never been my forte, but it is something I want to learn more about. When Schwartz reached out to me asking me if I would like to try their Spaghetti Carbonara Mix I was excited to give it a go!

Rocketo Raw Dog Food Review

Rocketo Raw Dog Food Review

Last year I discovered the raw food diet for dogs. When we got our rescue dog, he was itchy, unwell and when he went to the toilet- the smell! We joined a Facebook group, did our research, found a raw food pet shop and we went from there with trial and error. The difference it made to his health was amazing and we knew we were going to feed Albie it when we got him.

As wonderful as the raw…

Say Hello to our 8 week old Pugland Albie!

Say Hello to our 8 week old Pugland Albie!

Say hello to Albie! He is the cheekiest little sod but is also one of the smartest dogs I’ve ever met. Within the first week we had managed to get him to learn how to do sit, paw, lie down and spin. We’re working on perfecting them and him being on the leash in the garden, especially practicing his recall.

What’s a pugland?

Albie is the son of Teemo. If you didn’t already know, when I was a…

What are your favourite Summer memories?

For me my favourite summer memories are going on holiday with my parents to America! The warm weather, the theme parks, the food and drink we couldn’t get in England! I remember trying Gatorade Orange for the first time in America and using it to fuel my mad running around Universal Studios and driving my parents mad! Back then, you couldn’t get it in…
