If like me you love your morning (and mid-morning, and mid-afternoon) coffee you’ll likely have noticed the increase in cafes offering single-use compostable cups for takeaway. And if you’re like me you thought: “This is awesome! Finally a guilt-free way to enjoy coffee on the go when I forget my re-usable cup!” But wait right … Continue reading
Apparently flute sleeves and cold shoulders are out, peasant tops and tiered skirts are in. And as much as I like trends, I like this top more. So I’m going to keep wearing it. This fast fashion top from 2017 is not something I’d buy again for so many reasons (blended fibres so can’t be … Continue reading
Another day, another old outfit. This dress is from Topshop 2017, which is a brand I stopped shopping with because of the sexual assault and racist accusations made against Philip Green.
