Peace of Mind Around the Home

Family life in the 21st Century is certainly not what it once was. There are more distractions, worries and aspects of life that need attention than ever before. We live in a world where everything pertains to be simpler but is in fact more complicated.

Currently, with so much going on, it can be hard to have peace of mind around the home. In my previous article titled Restoring the Balance Between Mind, Body and Home, I explained how you could explore your own mindfulness at home, through interior décor and home comfort. read more

A Sustainable Contemporary and Designer Vintage Fashion Magazine!

Hi lovelies,

I was delighted to finally come across a sustainable contemporary and vintage fashion magazine online called Contemporary Fashion. Fast fashion is one of the worst polluters of our planet today and we need to look at changing our habits.

Contemporary Fashion shows us where to find clothing that is ethically made, sourced and delivered. On top of that, they have fabulous thrifted gear including top designer brands on their site which are readily available online.

They work with lots of ethical and smaller brands who are becoming increasingly popular. A lot of fast fashion items are cheaply made with lower quality fabrics, therefore not built to last. read more

Ethical Gift Shopping at Boostology

ethical gifts

Hello my lovely eco-friends,

I have missed my blog so much over the summer! I have been flat-out working crazy hours in our bar and restaurant the whole time. Any free time I managed to squeeze in was spent with the family so I haven’t had any time to write. It feels good to be back at the keyboard at last. Well, the weather has started to change here and I absolutely love autumn as its a great time to snuggle up with a fluffy blanket and light some scented candles.

On that note, in my absence, I have discovered a really lovely online ethical gift shopping site, called Boostology. I happened to hear about them through the Ethical Influencers, a lovely online group who promote ethical businesses like this one. I was delighted to receive a gorgeous gift of a rose water toner mist in the post after getting in touch with them. Let me just say, the customer service is absolutely outstanding for a start! I have to say, when dealing with independent small businesses, the whole experience is usually way more personal. Another great reason to support smaller businesses as opposed to big corporations. read more

Eco Friendly Dental Supplies by Brushd

eco friendly dental supplies by Brushd

Hi Lovelies,

I have been so busy lately, but I’ve been wanting to do a post on my latest find, eco friendly dental supplies by Brushd. Hope you are all enjoying the new year, even though January can be a drag. I have decided to start my new years resolutions on February 1st this year instead, since January is a miserable month altogether I think!

Anyhoo, I want to get healthy and fit again as that seems to have slipped big time for me over the last few months. Feeling very sluggish and much like a couch potato at the moment. Another big thing on my agenda for new year, new me is fixing my dental issues. read more

Renovating and Opening a Restaurant & Bar in France!

La montagne noire restaurant and bar france

Hi Lovelies,

Sorry I haven’t been very active on the blog recently, I have been up to my eyes working! Well I guess if you really love what you do then it doesn’t really feel like work at all. That is true in my case since renovating and opening a restaurant and bar in France! If you happen to follow my blog, you will know that we have been working hard to get our restaurant and bar ready for the summer.

So a quick recap and the low-down on our big project – welcome any new readers! We bought a restaurant and bar in sunny south of France around six months ago. My partner and I had been on the lookout for a potential business opportunity but we had no idea we were about to stumble across the opportunity of a lifetime. We already have a restaurant in France up and running for around 5 years now but it is a 50/50 partnership and that restaurant is taking off now. It took a few years to get it up to scratch but is now running well and a success. read more
