 Friday night I had dinner with my girlies at Pablo's. It was a joint birthday dinner, we all have birthdays in December, there is also another friend with December birthday but she wasn't able to make it. To burn a few calories we took a walk around the harbour. It's beautiful at night, many people had Christmas decorations up already. Even though it...

I've hardly been in the office this week, been travelling around a bit, I feel like I spent most of my days on a train travelling for meetings and training. I had to go to Milton Keynes, but the whole journey I couldn't see much through the window. It's been very foggy lately. I missed a very nice shot of Lewes in fog because...

 I met up with Marta yesterday, we went to Little Christmas in Little Chelsea. It was the same as last year, reindeer, lots of stalls with cupcakes and other food. There were so many people, it was hard to get through.  Most of the shop in the South Street were open, including a bridal shop, so popped in and had a look at...

I noticed recently a few backlash against  very fit women, namely Maria Kang and Caroline Berg Eriksen. It's absolutely incredible that she canlook like this 4 days after giving birth, I find this rather inspiring. While everyone's genetics are different, keeping fit during pregnancy and after certainly helps, yet these ladies received so much hate messages  and feel offended by these pictures.Some of the...

I'm still trying to figure out how add pin it button to my posts but none of the codes seems to work, most likely because I use dynamic template and I'm not prepared to switch to classic, oh well!

My skin is terrible, I'd been prescribed antibiotics, but they didn't help. I've been browsing r/skincareaddiction,the folks there know what they are talking about. I'm trying to set up a new skincare routine, bought loads of products that might work. I'd suggest to check it out, website might look a bit weird for those who're not redditors, but don't worry, you'll get used to it....

I wish...

I'ts bloody cold outside. It's either too hot or freezing in my office, I never feel comfortable. It feels like June was just yesterday but reality is that the holiday season has started. Christmas decorations everywhere, Christmas adverts on the telly,  dear god how annoying, it's November!!! So  yeah I'm a bit like the grumpy cat.   There are many reasons to be...

My very close friend is getting married very soon, so we went to a local bridal shop for a fitting. We have similar taste in clothing and we're good friends so I can feel like I can give her my honest opinion on the dresses. I've never been to a bridal shop before and I wouldn't say that I particularly enjoyed my first...

We went to Ikea last week. I want to go there for ages, but it's quite far from where I live. I love Ikea, simple, minimalist Scandinavian style. I could easily spend my whole paycheck  there, I didn't but boy do they have some nice things for very affordable prices. I bought Hemnes chest of drawers pictured above. It's simple yet stylish and...

SPOILERS ahead Damn you Cumberbatch. Made me download iTunes (yeah, not an apple fan) to watch Little Favour.  It's a short crowd-funded film,Benedict plays quite a different role when usual, we're loving it, don't we? I love that even though he's such a big star now, he still involves in small projects.  Official description:  “Little Favour follows the story of WALLACE (Cumberbatch) when he...

                My colleague and me were invited to a youth fair organised by the local council, we worked at reception and I was also asked to take pictures too. Good, another opportunity to practice. I was worried about lighting. It was held in an old theatre and it was  much worse than I expected. The lights...

I've got a special treat for you this week. Not sure if this is widely known, but before his comedian days, Ricky Gervais was in a New Wave group, well duo, called Seona Dancing. This is hilarious. Enjoy. Yep, this was recorded in the 80s, in case you couldn't tell.  ...

So apparently, a storm is coming our way, it should hit our coast Sunday night- Monday morning. Winds up to 80 mph. I'm ready, are you? Update: well, it seems the storm skipped my town, I haven't seen any damage, a few branches on a pavement, that's all. ...

I'm one of those people who tend to listen to the same music over and over again.. I've been struggling to find new music that I like. I always come back to square one. But sometimes magic happens and I find something brilliant. Well, more often than not, it's been recommended to me. King Krule is my latest "discovery". King Krule- Easy Easy...

The other day I went to see Fifth Estate with a few friends and my SO.  This was something I was looking forward for a while. Now I've watched it I got mixed feelings about it. First of all, let me state the obvious- Benedict was brilliant as Julian Assange. His manneers and even posture seem to be different and he nailed the...

   I spent my day at my friend's. We had fondue, it seemed quite fitting with this cold and rainy weather.  She has a lovely fireplace so I spent most of the time next to it as I was quite cold. She baked a cake and it was rather nice, cream a bit too runny, but it didn't ruin the taste and it...

Yesterday was a good day. Just my favourite actor ever doing an AMA (ask me anything) on my favourite website- reddit. Although  he didn't answer any of my questions, not that I hoped it he would, within few seconds of his post, there were 200 questions. It was just a drop in the sea. Anyway, his answers were rather funny and oh quite...

I spent my Saturday in Lewes with Marta. I've never been there before even though it's very close to where I live and have passed it many times.  Town centre was lively and buzzing. There was a market full of fresh produce, there were many charming shops and cafes. From most of the town, you can see South Downs.  And yeah, there is...
