Oh, destiny… They say that it’s something that has already been decided for you, so no matter what direction you go in, your life will end up the same way if that is what was…
It’s been too long. Too long since I sat down and wrote something that actually meant something to me. I’ve been the worst kind of blogger for so frigging long that I rarely call myself…
The way you wear prints can make or break an outfit. A floral blouse can brighten up plain office wear, but a patterned trouser and shirt combo could clash. So, how do you decide which…
Sometimes I wish my kids had the chance to grow up in the world that I grew up, where there was no ‘online presence’ no social media stress and certainly no cyber bullying. When I…
Harry Potter fans out there will know that the fourth film and book in the beloved wizarding universe is the Goblet of Fire. This action-packed story sees Harry enter the Triwizard Tournament, in which three…
I can’t actually believe we’re already halfway through the year. I’m not sure if it’s the lack of summer so far, or the fact that I’m getting older (and so the entire year just passes…
Who doesn’t love a bargain? I do! Especially if it’s something I really want, and would have bought at full price anyway. Then it kind of feels like you’ve really struck lucky, like you were…
I am an ex smoker. Yup. Disgusting habit, but hey, we all do things we shouldn’t do. And, I’m not going to lie, back then, I really enjoyed smoking. I had no kids, I was…
Hands up if you have hormones? Oh, you do? Yay you….. I’d like to invite you to my house, where you could see a shed load of hormones in action. Mine, the teenagers and the…

Money is the root of all evil. So they say. But, I don’t know about you, I don’t think I could live without it. Literally and figuratively. No one likes to talk cash, not unless…
Stuff. All the stuff, everywhere. I’m not sure if I’m late to the ‘spring clean’ party or what, but the amount of stuff I have everywhere is driving me insane! It’s not hard to imagine,…
It’s been a while since I stepped foot in an airport. I’m yearning to get away from the ‘everyday’ and have some time to switch off. From everything. You don’t actually realise how much you…

Happy New Week! God, I’ve been MIA for a while now. I keep falling in and out of love with blogging, and social media as a whole if I’m honest. So much of it is…
Taipei is a bustling and welcoming city, packed with cultural opportunities. You may not be able to do everything in 36 hours, but you can certainly get a flavour of this fascinating place. Here are…
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? Mine would be something like a faster metabolism, or smaller waist, the normal kind of thing. I think if you asked my nine…
Thirty Seven. I remember being in my teens and early twenties and thinking that 37 sounded so damn old. So close to 40, so far away from 25. But then, 25 sounded old when I…
Hi, my name is Kate and I am a shopaholic. I don’t even try and hide this fact anymore. I love nothing more than a wander around the shops (child free if you’re offering, thanks)…
