For women of my generation, it’s hard to imagine what lingerie styles were like decades ago. Personally I don’t feel like lingerie has changed massively over recent years, but if you were to look back in time at what women used to wear and the reasons behind it, you’d be quite surprised. I can’t say it’s ever crossed…
Oh, summer, you’ve graced us finally and the only sensible thing to do now, every weekend, is to sit in the sun with a refreshing beverage and hydrate… right?! Gin is good for us after all, isn’t it?

Well hello, it’s been a while. It’s been a busy six months for me of which I won’t bore you with as I usually do, but… I’m back. And, I’m back with a bang. Last week, I was kindly invited to a very special evening at Seaham Hall, the five-star boutique hotel overlooking the Durham Heritage Coast. If…

Luxury travel is something more and more of us want from our vacation experience. We don’t want to sit in cramped airplane cabins, with a crying baby on the left and a sneezing old man on the right. We don’t want to have to wait ages at the airport to check in, and then finally get out to…
