As much as we might all want to look and feel pretty in life, it doesn’t always happen. We get stressed, things get on top of us, we’re busy – and it can often lead to us feeling a bit of a mess. It can apply to the home and then also to how you’re feeling in yourself too. But the good news is, you really do not have to let yourself suffer in silence. If you’re feeling this way,…
So the weather has taken a turn for the better and the invitations to alfresco afternoon tea and barbeques have started rolling in but as I recently realised since I started losing weight (so far I am down 40lbs) I had not restocked with lovely summer-ready clothes so I was excited when Fashion World offered me the chance to review a few pieces from their range. Fashion World is part of J D Williams & Company Limited founded in 1874…

When it comes to owning a dog there are a few ‘maintenance’ bits and bobs that should be done on a regular basis. This includes regular checkups at the vets, grooming either with a professional or at home to make sure your dog’s coat is neat and keeping an eye on their nails so they don’t get too long and ultimately damage their delicate paws (and your home!). Trimming nails of any animal can be a bit of a trial,…
Browsing the e-juice selection at your favourite vape store has become a whole lot like shopping for groceries. You can pick from citrus, berry, vanilla, dairy and organic liquid. In most cases, selecting an e-liquid comes down to flavour preferences: Are you in the mood for something fresh, uplifting and sweet or something sophisticated and savoury? Other times, though, picking your juice is a tiny bit more complex. That’s the case when you’re measuring organic versus non-organic e-juice. Is organic…
If you would like to be ready for the invitations to house parties and corporate events, you will need to think about looking as vibrant and colourful as possible.

No matter what your best features are, you will have to think about emphasizing them and choosing the right shades for the occasion and…
Any parent knows that interior design becomes a whole different beast when you have a child in the house. All of a sudden, you have to think about what’s practical instead of what looks good.
