Embrace a Different Perspective on Selling.

I’ve been really good lately, avoiding splurges on fashion. My focus has been on home decor, like curtains, wallpaper, and choosing the right mixer tap.

Exploring the Fashion of M&S Apparel

In September, I found myself frequently visiting my local M&S store to gather essentials for a seaside cottage I'm planning to rent out around the year 2032.

Unexpected Fashion Icon: The Marks and Spencer Vest

Lately, I've been visiting Marks & Spencer more often since there's a huge store not too far from where I'm temporarily staying in a barn. It's about a fifteen-minute drive, which is great because everything else around here, including phone reception, is quite far. With my phone out of action, little things like this are…

BESTIVAL GLAMOUR (AND CURVES)

I wanted to share a few fun beauty items I used for a festival where I tried to dress up as Dolly Parton. I know I fell short of that goal and ended up looking more like a risqué cowgirl, but that’s what happens when you give yourself only twenty minutes to put a costume…
