Buying And Decorating Our Christmas Tree

Happy Friday all! It's not long now until the big day, and Mike and I took a trip out this week to buy our Christmas tree from a nearby forest. It definitely got us in the festive spirit! Of course I took the opportunity to vlog the occasion - this is as close to vlogmas as I was ever going to get this year!

When it comes to decorating the tree, I've stuck to a colour theme for the past few years - mostly gold, silver and white, with a few touches of red here and there. I always really like how this combination turns out. If you want to see, you can watch the video on YouTube, or right here.



Is your tree up yet? And how have you decorated it?

Date Night In Harrogate

A couple of weeks ago, my husband Mike and I treated ourselves to a night out in Harrogate, one of our favourite towns in North Yorkshire. It's only about an hour's drive from us, but we decided to stay overnight just to make it that little bit more special.

I've tried to capture a little bit of the town here, (some of it through our dirty car windscreen - apologies for that!) and it is well worth a visit if you ever find yourself in this part of the world. It has some lovely boutiques, art and antique shops as well as a great selection of the higher end high street stores, and loads of restaurants and cafes too. Betty's Tea Room is particularly famous, although we didn't eat there this time as we have been many times before. I also love looking at the townhouses here - they are beautiful.

Architecture and town amenities aside, this vlog also features food, (amazing pasta at Galo's Kitchen, totally recommend!) my outfits and a mini Get Ready With Me. You even get to see a tiny glimpse of Mike! 

You can watch the video on my YouTube channel or right here. If you enjoy it, I would love it if you subscribed for more vlogs as well as fashion and beauty content.


Until next time!

Vlog 3 - Come To London With Me! Blogging Events, Burgers And Shopping In Zara

I had a couple of really fun days last week. Another invitation to a blogging event in London, which was the perfect excuse to go and stay with my sister. Even better, I got to bring her along to the event with me, and of course we found time for a spot of shopping too! I still have a lot to learn about vlogging, but I'm loving doing it, so I hope you'll enjoy this little glimpse into my adventures!

Watch the vlog on my YouTube channel or right here if you prefer.


What's your favourite way to spend a couple of cheeky days off?

Vlog 2 - Yoga at the Shard

I made my first vlog for YouTube recently, and not only did I love putting it together, but it quickly became my most watched video yet. So it stood to reason that I was going to make another! Getting the opportunity to meet fellow bloggers and participate in a yoga class high up in the Shard with incredible views of London was an opportunity I didn't want to miss, and I was determined to capture it on film too.

The Shangri-La Hotel, The Shard, London

The event was organised by Forever, a brand I've worked with in the past, to promote their Argi+ supplements, a vitamin complex that helps reduce fatigue. Having been impressed with Forever's signature Aloe Vera gel as well as their Infinite skincare range, I was definitely keen to get involved. I was so glad I did, as it was a fantastic experience, and I hope I've managed to capture a little of that in this video.

You can watch the vlog on my YouTube channel or right here. Hope you enjoy!



Are you a fan of yoga? And what's the most spectacular view you've ever seen?

Vlog! Getting My Hair Done

A couple of weeks back I went to get my hair done, and decided it might be fun to use the opportunity as a practise run for vlogging, which is something I've not yet attempted on my YouTube channel. I never intended to actually upload this, but once I'd finished editing it I thought, why not? It's fairly haphazardly thrown together on my iPhone, but I hope you'll enjoy this little snippet of my day. As well as getting my roots lightened, I share my first impressions of a new drugstore foundation, heat up a pizza, and somehow manage to completely miss the Tour de Yorkshire on the day it passes through my town. Now if that's not entertainment, I don't know what is!

You can watch the vlog on YouTube or right here. Enjoy!
