My Morning Routine

Happy Hump Day ya'll! Today I thought I'd share with you my morning routine. I like to think it's quite a simple one that I have just got into the habit of doing and is quick and easy for me to get out the door on time.

7am

Alarm goes off. It's a radio alarm so I like to listen to it for about 15 minutes before I actually get out of bed. Oh and it's Radio 1 which I've listened to every morning since I was 12!

7.15am

Get out of bed. First stop bathroom to try and wake myself up a bit then I go into the kitchen and start on last night's washing up. I always do it the morning after so that it can dry during the day. Then I make my breakfast and lunch and feed my bunny.

7.30am

Eat breakfast whilst checking social media and e-mails. For breakfast I'll generally have porridge or peanut butter on toast because it's quick. I like to wash it down with a glass of juice or almond milk or a cup of green tea.

7.45am

Figure out what to wear. I always decide on the day depending on the weather. Then I do my hair and makeup and pack my gym bag if I'm going straight from work.

8am

Out the door after doing the final checks. I then walk to the train station to catch my train into London where I work as a trainee lawyer.

So yes pretty simple but I've had the same routine for about 4 years now and it just works for me.

Please share any links for your morning routine, would love to read them!

My Favourite Looks From Fashion Week

Last month was 'Fashion Month' with showcases and catwalks taking place each week in different locations across London, New York, Paris and Milan. Although I have been attending London Fashion Week for several years now, this time around I was in California and unfortunately could not attend any shows. However, that did not stop me from catching up once I was back from my trip to check out all the latest trends. I was also browsing the Esprit website and noticed they had some awesome pieces just like the trends seen on the runway last month. Here are some of my favourites that I think are going to be hot this season and where you can copy the looks for less! Floral prints at Gucci. You can shop the look for less here . All black at Marc Jacobs. Shop the look for less here . Bows at Chloe. Shop the look for less here . Sparkles at Alexander McQueen. Shop the look for less here . Not only does Esprit do runway trends for

New Year, New You

As with every New Year, we make resolutions (you can see mine in my last post) but I think for most of us it's about becoming a newer and better person than we were last year. I've come up with a few ways we can make little changes to become a newer and better you. New Hair I've said in many of my posts how much I like to change my hair and you can read about my hair dying experience here and my hair extensions experience here . However, it needn't be a drastic change, just a little trim and some subtle highlights . Whenever I change my hair I always feel like a new woman! New Wardrobe The New Year is probably the best time to invest in some new clothes because there are so many sales on. You don't even have to spend a lot of money, I love affordable brands such as Esprit which do really on trend pieces at high street prices. With a new wardrobe you will not only feel better but look better too! New Hobby The New Year is a gre

How to Wear a Pink Lip

Wearing a pink lip can sometimes be quite hard, especially if it's a rather bright and vibrant shade but I think it looks so lovely for this time of the year. My favourite shade of pink is Impassioned by MAC . It's very bright and has such a creamy texture that it glides on really well and stays put for quite a few hours. I find I never have to wear a lip liner with this one either. When wearing a pink lip I think it's important to get the rest of your make up right so that you don't look washed up and colours don't clash. So starting off with the skin I would get myself nice and tanned. My favourite tanners at the moment are the Superdrug Solait tan in dark and also Tan Truth which you can get from Sally's Salon Services. Where I have just come back from Ibiza I have still got a bit of a tan so every few days I use the St Tropez Everyday gradual tanner and this helps top up my tan slightly. Then you've got to get the make-up right so
