How is your sleep right now? I don’t know about you, but my quality of sleep has not been great during lockdown. In an effort to combat all the stressful dreams, restless sleep and the extra anxiety that 2020 seems to be triggering, I’ve been leaning extra hard into my home comforts and carefully-honed routines to try and feel a little… View Post
Has lockdown given you the urge to get organised at home? I’m a bit obsessive about being organised at the best of times, but all this extra time at home has me wanting to prettify, sort, and get rid of all the clutter for a happier home. First came the kitchen cupboards, then the junk drawer, then the wardrobe. If… View Post
How organised is your closet right now? I will admit I am a bit of an organisational obsessive, and like to keep my wardrobe completely clean and organised at all times, but it’s a constant work in progress to keep it well-edited too. I tend to do a really big clear-out in January of every year, and then smaller organising… View Post
Hi friends, how are you all doing, really? Wherever you are in the world, I hope you’re staying home and that you and your loved ones are safe and well. It’s hard to believe quite how much the world has turned upside down in just a couple of weeks, isn’t it? Things we took for granted just a month ago… View Post
Happy Friday everyone! It’s been a while since I did one of these posts, but I’m so happy to be back at it after a little hiatus.

Because I burn candles almost nightly, I always seem to have a vast Diptyque collection around the house; either favourites I have re-purchased many times over, treasured birthday gifts from friends,… View Post
I don’t know about you, but I am 100% bored of winter and have spring on the brain. But while my head is filled with visions of spring blossoms and bare legs and blue skies, the weather has other plans and we are definitely still in the full throes of winter’s icy temperatures and grey days. While I almost never… View Post
A little later than planned, but happy 2020 everyone! Don’t you just love the feeling of a fresh start that a new year lends? After a blissfully lovely few weeks spent with our family over the holidays (who descended en masse from Australia just in time for Christmas), it’s been so lovely to spend the first part of January hibernating… View Post
Happy Friday everyone! This week was full of lots of meetings and lovely things. My husband is travelling constantly right now (it’s peak-conference season in the academic world), but we squeezed in an afternoon tea date and had a nice lazy weekend together between trips. This weekend my friend Brenda is coming to visit and we’re going to make the… View Post
