My followers over on Instagram will have noticed that I am appearing in my feed a lot more these days. In the past, I have avoided being in front of the camera lens at all costs, and it does feel somewhat narcissistic to deliberately take photos of myself! However, there is a method behind this […]

I was racing through the shopping centre, on a quick shopping mission with list in hand, when my eye caught a glimpse of something in a shop window that pulled me up. It was a pair of the most amazing red shoes I have ever seen…I love red, but it’s got to be a nice, […]
