Sinensis had achieved the impossible; placated me into a state of calm that I thought only sleep could achieve and boy was I in heaven. It all began one crisp summers day, the clouds were settling and the traffic was in motion and as I came towards my destination of 'facial truth' I felt an incredible calm aura wash over me like holy water from a fountain. As I took my seat a delicious caffeine free tisane of 'Amachazuru' was offered to me in greeting, blending a delicious combination of herbs and licorice to taste. Known as the 'Immortality Grass', it was no hyperbole to state that I could feel the blood pumping through my veins, very much reminding me that I was alive and kicking. Not that ... read more

Duchess London & The ‘Hepburn’ Mystique
The 60's was known as the 'Golden era' of Hollywood, characterized by film icons Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn, whose mysterious 'allure' and magnetic attraction led to them being the most highly paid and notorious actresses that Hollywood has ever produced. Whilst Marilyn died an untimely death in 1962, Audrey continued working in films until 1989, before devoting her last years to a lifelong dream of promoting humanitarian causes and to many was seen as the epitome of 'natural grace and beauty'.. For many Audrey was an iconic actress with a voice of an angel and to others Audrey inspired them to be 'great' and help those less fortunate than themselves but to many Audrey was a fashion ... read more
House Festival With Samsung & Three
In a rare sunny spell, Marble Hill was bathed in a soft golden glow, where the gentle rays of forgotten sunshine was beginning to pull through. Festival goers clambered into open fields, eager to enter the excitement that would engulf them beyond the tents, while the sun deepened into hazy euphoria. As a guest of Samsung and Three, I was escorted straight to the tents before being ushered into the growing crowds that awaited House Festival. It was magical; like a scene set in a Midsummer's Night Dream rainbow streamers swung merrily overhead, the gentle caress of the wind like a balm to the sunshine's warmth. The zest of the festival goers was infectious, the laughter and cheers ringing in ... read more
May Recap
The last three months seem to be echoing each other because I seem to say the same thing every month and that is 'I am exhausted' and unable to post as much as I would like to. My followers will note that since March/April I have been able to post consistently which has largely affected my following and traffic and there is nothing I can do about it. I work so hard to earn a living and because I can't make enough money on my blog I am forced to work multiple jobs to generate some form of income. Alongside my role as a blogger I am a social media executive, copywriter, freelance journalist and an advertiser/promoter for various brands; I often work 12 -14 hour days before heading to either an ... read more

Alexi London Review
'With her hair in a bun, the long nape of her neck was swathed with delicate jewellery, Dazzling diamonds and emeralds too, bathing in a sea of precious metal, No expenses were spared, no quality was lost, an absent curl entangled in a clasp,She hummed a gentle ditty, the pearls dancing alongside her, slips of metal conjoined as one, Soft spoken murmurs as she stroked her magic jewels, infused with Eastern power, One by one the jewels took their seats, the girl cried as she choked her words out, The jewels left defeated and fell into the open jaws of the wolves, but as if by magic they were saved! Alexi London rode along in their pearl chariot, rose gold unicorns marching forth,Scooped up ... read more
Ice Queen
A collaboration with Happiness Boutique 'Turn me to ice with your putrid breath, the stench of lost sons a sulphur to your senses.

Pluck out the impurities, rub the slate clean, rewire my soul...genetic modification.Amputated from reality, no labels to hold onto, isolation is the key to unlocking the Ice Queen's heart.Crawl through the undergrowth into the Ice Kingdom, wrapped in a blanket of unfounded deceit.Isolated feelings dried upon chapped lips, no friends to call my own lost at sea. Shapeshifters and demons caught in ... read more
