The year 2020 has been a funny one. Some claim the summer months have been a 'total write off' since we spent a lot of it in quarantine. For me, as soon as we were allowed to travel a bit more with our household, the summer began. Over the months, despite having restrictions here and there, I have had some pretty awesome times. From small moments, planned days out, and a little ...

 This post contains PR Products with no obligation to post.This summer I have been enjoying glowy makeup - not just a bit of highlighter and a dewy foundation, though. This summer, I've been trying different products, some that I've never had the confidence to try before, as well as lashing on some old favourites. With a handful of cosmetics, I've been achieving the freshest,...

One week, after discussing the limited amount of summer left, we decided it was time to up sticks and FINALLY go camping. We'd been wanting to go for a while and it was something we'd never done together (in fact, something I'd never done at all). So, with a little bit of spontaneity, we booked the campsite and collected multiple camping tools from different family...

  After living in Newcastle for over 2 years, I'm ashamed to confess that I haven't really explored much of Nortumberland. I've been to Bamburgh once or twice, but the bucket list of famous places such as Kielder, Alnwick, Alnmouth, and more, awoke this summer. At the start of this month, we finally packed our bags and headed North up to Kielder. Initially,...

This post is an advertisement feature with Boots UK but all thoughts are my own. It’s easy to fall into a bit of a slump when we’re spending a lot of time at home and this can have an effect on our confidence. Lately, I’ve been working hard to not let my confidence slip. This, however, doesn’t always require anything over the top; for me, it has simply...

It was only going to be a matter of time before I created my own Instagram Hashtag community, I was just waiting for that burst of inspiration to come along and reveal something like this that was so apt and representative of what The Rose Glow really stands for...

This blog post is an advertisement feature with Kula Bags but all thoughts are my own.  Sustainable Gift Guide for Everyone - Under £10 Whoever you're gifting, whatever the occasion, you can now be more equipped to splash that little bit more on a treat. My previous post kept the budget below £10, but now I'm ready to showcase some brilliant items above...

When I was younger, there was a Pick Your Own (PYO) farm just down the road from us and, much to my parent's expense, it was always my favourite place to go. Fast forward about 15 years, and I can confirm it is still just as fun to go hunting for your own little basket of fruit. ...

Whether its birthdays, anniversaries, or just a little act of kindness, the thought and love captured through a sustainable gift is priceless. Giving someone a gift which has been thought out, not only in terms of the receiver but in terms of its own environmental impact is something I'm sure we'd all be grateful for. Whoever you're gifting, for whatever occasion, here's a...

Did somebody order another 3 months of Newcastle food adventures? Get ready for a tour of the tables I was gobbling at throughout January, February and March. ...

Having creative and eye-catching content on Instagram doesn't just stop at the grid - being present and on-tend through stories is just as important. Over the past few months, I've been testing and trying a big ol' bunch of apps, widgets and creative styles to figure out the best ways to present stories to audiences...

We all know that I've dismissed many forms of self-help in my anxious life. From the unnecessary visits to CBT and breathing exercises that seem impossible in a moment of panic, I am still impartial when it comes to self-help reading. Admittedly, on many occasions I've thrown them out of sight, underestimating their power in my time of need; afterall, what use are a few forgotten...

I could've written this post about one week into January because, as the clock struck 12, the anxiousness and nervous anticipation had already set in. The previous decade was left behind; one of repeating education, growing up, learning about the world. A new decade was swept before us; looming with expectations, reality and HUGE life choices. At least for me, turning 21 in...
