Something slightly different in this post as I'm taking part in a kind of challenge set by the lovely Beth from La Blog Beaute who is running a Beauty Brawl. So...for ten days I will be reviewing my version of the ten items on the list as set in the brawl challenge and scoring the … Continue reading Christmas Beauty Brawl
Dancing is one of those things whereby you can happily learn at your own pace, attend classes, have private lessons, dance at socials or step it up and take exams and enter competitions. The environment in which you choose to dance really is an individual decision primarily based on what it is that you want … Continue reading Quickstepping out of my comfort zone!

Being out so early meant we had time to casually wander around as shops generally weren't open until around 10am....and today was … Continue reading New York City – Day 3
