The long awaited follow up to I am Not Your Babymother is finally here and phew is it good.To say that I’ve been sitting here with baited breath would be pretty accurate, we have known for a while that Candice was going to be giving us another piece of herself but just how much and just how good it was going to be? That was the question.
Usually I like to start my reviews with a bit of an…
When we first meet Ava, a 22 year old Dublin girl living in Hong Kong, who describes herself as “good at men”, she is teaching English by day and living in a cramped house share by night. Ava seems distant, likeable enough but a bit lost. She left Ireland so soon after her graduation she was almost still wearing her cap and gown and hasn’t really fit into TEFL life. She teaches the grammar class…
I never thought that I would write a love letter to someone other than my bae, on Valentine’s day, yet here we are. It’s only right, as during this series I am gushing over those that came before me that I say hello, hi and thank you so ever much to the Lady Of Soul.
Jenny Francis was at the helm of Choice FM for most of my life, it is no surprise that hers was the longest running…
Life wasn’t the same after 2004, before then you could count on Trisha. Every weekday morning, rain or shine, she would be there. Helping people find their long lost family members, finding out who stole the money from nan’s purse or even helping those who have had their hearts broken learn to love again. You knew what you were getting with Trisha. One of my fondest memories was is of me sipping…
Allbets flights are off! The jury is in. The judge has banged the gavel and there is no travel this here summer 2020 (for me anyway.) Whilst some are risking it all for a little European getaway, I am not that brave. I think it is safe to say that hardly any of us truly know how to do the right thing when it comes to this pandemic, the thought of having to isolate for a fortnight after being…
When I first saw the title of this book I thought “finally, someone who thinks like me!” I am that cringe person who bursts into applause every-time a flight I am on lands safely on the tarmac, much to the the horror of my travel companion and anyone who happens to be in earshot. The title of this book, along with the brightly coloured covered may fool you into thinking that this is a joyful…
What is in a name?.. A question that has been pondered since a fictional teenager was hanging over her balcony pining over the bad-boy. Juliet will have you thinking that a name means nothing. That a label or title only has as much power as you give it. I am here to tell you that Shakespeare clearly didn’t think outside of the “roses smell sweet” box with this sentiment.
As the UK eases lockdown and the world feels as though it is on fire, it’s really easy to feel as though you are not doing enough. There are mixed messages absolutely everywhere. Ones telling you to stay home, ones telling you to go out and march for what is right. But what are you meant to do?
Honestly, if you have read any of my articles before you will know that very rarely do I possess the…

Every two weeks we will introduce you to someone you need to be following with “Who’s That Girl?” A section dedicated to some of the ladies who are killing it in a different kind of field to your normal “merking it at life so get a feature in the magazines” way.
Introducing Miss Joyce K! A private chef hailing from London via Congo, Joyce’s food and her easy to follow, step by step recipes have…
We are in the midst of a heatwave here in London (or at least we were when I started writing this but then, well… The heatwave distracted me) which means the parks/ beaches/ any bench anywhere are full of people sitting, eating and of course reading. I think I may have just found your next fave summer read.
On a night out, four friends witness a stranger in trouble. They decide to do nothing to…
I feel like “self-love or care or whatever you want to put after the dash” is a bit of a buzzword at the moment. And whilst I do think that the more of us that speak about it, the more people will realise the importance of looking after yourself. I also think that it is so easy to completely bullshit your way through instagram captions and boomerangs of a nice bubble-bath while at…
Before we begin you need to know that I am not a makeup artist! Now that is out of the way I can tell you that I have done my first make-up tutorial/ collaboration/ really cool thing with Superdrug! I think there is no secret in me loving festivals and also no secret in the fact that I love to experiment with the way I look so I jumped the chance to throw some glitter on my face in the very snazzy…
Well first of all this headline makes me feel like an absolute G!
I spoke to 1883 Mag last week about how I almost gave up on getting into telly (eek) how I prepare for a set as HUGE as Wireless Festival and what advice I would give to anyone who is considering taking up a career in media.
Ow OW OWWWW Ahead of my set at Wireless Festival I sat down and had a chat with Spindle Magazine
First of all it is SO STRANGE to be the person who is the subject of the interview no the one demanding the goss from a celeb. But it was also real fun being the Beyoncé in the room *shrugs smugly*
Answering a bunch of questions about my set and also a little bit about how I got into doing what I…
I don’t know how I keep doing it but I am on a bit of a roll with the books I am picking to commit to recently. Some people on instagram don’t believe that I read all of the books I bang on about because it seems like I get through them a bit too quickly. I understand that but what YOU need to understand is that reading fast? That is my super power.
My friends know that I have a pet peeve. I won’t be annoying and make you guess I will just spit it out You know what really grinds my gears???? The announcements of announcements on social media, I can’t stand it and it drives me mad. Example “OMG I cant wait to tell you what I am doing and I will do so on Monday at 6pm” Just tell us on Monday, unless you are dropping a joint album with Beyoncé…
