Sarah’s 5 Favourite Spice Girl Songs

I think a lot of us let out an excited scream when they saw this photo on Instagram…

Could it really be true that they are going to reunite? There is still only just talk about it at the moment but it has led to me getting my Spice Girls playlist on Spotify, it’s on almost constant repeat. The kids love it too, which is great!

I saw a load of people on social media talking about their favourite song, album, Spice Girl. I also saw some doing their Top 5 songs and that’s what I’m going with as it gives me some more choice and I can listen to my playlist some more… Read More

Sarah’s January Favourites

So after the longest January EVER I can finally talk about my favourites. It feels like I’ve a LOAD of favourites for my face so I’m going to talk through those first and then later on come onto my more lifestyle favourites.

My skin has been the best it’s ever been recently.

Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue  Hydrating Gel Cream

I have loved this stuff for a while back it’s back into my everyday makeup now as I have been looking through my skincare and makeup for products with SPF. I hardly have any!

I’ve got the latest Alice Hoffman book on the go at the moment, finally a prequel to Practical Magic! Read More

Letting go when “Life Happens”

Where does the time go? Who steals it and makes it disappear?

I’m pretty sure a lot of you can relate to not feeling like they have time to get everything they want to in the week. I’m a mega planner and schedule my time through the week but I can still feel disappointed when I’m not ticking off enough tasks. I can feel stuck in a loop of “not getting anywhere” and this does nothing to stop my procrastination.
