Not been around these parts in a while, have we? After 7 long, busy months I'm finally back, with a new name (well, can't really call that part new) and a fresh look. I'm ridiculously proud of how my new blog is looking, and I'm so excited to get posting new content.

THE READING HABITS TAG

Carissa from Vanilla Crush did The Reading Habits Tag on her blog and it looked like fun, especially since I've been getting back into reading lately, so I thought I'd do it on mine! I've been waiting a while to publish this post. I saw the tag back in March and it's taken me 3 whole months to publish this. Oops!

CLEANSE, TONE AND MOISTURISE | SKINCARE ROUTINE

One of the most valuable lessons I learnt about skincare growing up was to always moisturise. My mum drummed this lesson into me from a young age. She's 61 but looks 10 years younger, and always has done, so I definitely took notice of her advice.

7 DAYS LATELY | LYTHE HILL HOTEL & SPA

There's something so peaceful about waking up in the middle of nowhere; surrounded by trees and fields, with bunny rabbits hopping on the freshly cut grass, hearing the raindrops hit the window pane and the birds tweeting in the distance. No stereotypical London noises heard - no horns from angry drivers in rush hour traffic and no roaring sound from the airplanes taking off from the airport five minutes down the road. Just peace.

ADVENTURES IN EGYPT

I've been away from the blogging world for two months.  I have no excuse except the real world has got in the way. I know "they" say you have to stick at this to be successful but sometimes it's just a bit of a struggle to sit down and write when you've got so many other things on your plate. But it should be about quality over quantity, so I guess I've saved you the pain of many naff posts.
