The Travel Edit: Ibiza Zen

So you may have seen from my Instagram pictures and Tweets that a little while ago I headed off to a Yoga retreat in gorgeous Ibiza. It was a much needed holiday and I had such an amazing time in Ibiza, I'm really still a bit sad it's all over. I'd wanted to go to Ibiza for years, so when my good friend Sarah told me about a yoga retreat in Ibiza which her and her friends were running, I thought why not give it a go and I'm so glad I did!

The Sunday Pamper Edit

This last week has been a busy week for me. Work has been busy and there has been something fun to do or go to every night and it's been lovely. I've had post birthday catch up dinners with friends, exercised my brain cells at the work quiz night and had a fabulous night at the theatre to watch Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It was all so amazing, but I've definitely been feeling like a little rest and pampering is much needed today........I think being another year older is catching up with me.

Lemon Drizzle Traybake

When I'm lucky enough to have some spare time, there is something so very relaxing about Sunday baking. For me, I always find it's a great way to wind down the week and prepare me for the week ahead. I really wanted to use the new cake tin my brother gave me for my birthday so today's cake is a really quick and simple Lemon Drizzle traybake, very moreish and a perfect treat teamed with a cup of tea and putting your feet up on a Sunday afternoon.

Review: Genesis Crafty Artisan Baked Delights

When these delicious Genesis Crafty* pancakes and scones landed on my desk, to say I was excited would be an understatement. I love pancakes and scones, you can't beat homemade scones with clotted cream and jam but sometimes when things are a bit too hectic and I just don't have time to make them, the Genesis Crafty range is a pretty good alternative.

The Big Feastival

Before Bestival hit this Summer, there was The Big Feastival, the food & music festival founded by Jamie Oliver & Alex James, with the festival being held on Alex James' farm in the Cotswolds.

August Beauty Favourites

So I've already shared with you my non-beauty favourites for August and below....drumroll........are all the beauty products I've been loving this last month.

August Non-Beauty Favourites

It seems that I haven't done a favourites post in quite a while which is surprising as they're one of my favourite posts to read. There are a number of things I've been loving through August so I thought I'd separate the beauty and the non-beauty favourites for August.
