      an unexpected ruin

      Living
      dress: Fabrik I have this thing with ruins; always have, ever since I was a little girl. The most mundane and domestic building becomes suddenly enchanting once it falls into disrepair. Take off [...]

      living with big emotions

      Personal
      I have big feelings. By that I mean, my emotions frequently overpower me; I'm always at the superlative end of the emotional spectrum. Enraged, distraught, overjoyed, overwhelmed. This isn't a [...]

      In defence of sleepiness

      Living
      Sleep is one of those things we drastically undervalue in our society. I think about this a lot, as a perpetually sleepy person: how most people are more worried about dehyrdration or sugar [...]

      Cafe Stories: the lonely people

      Personal
      I'm sat, typing away, when the cafe door bangs open and a stocky man with a booming voice strides in. He's shouting at me. 'Who are you in my cafe?' He has wide set eyes and his hands are balled [...]

      Instagram tips: Creative selfies

      Instagram advice
      Selfies are a funny phenomenon, aren't they? Since the advent of Myspace and forward-facing cameras they've developed this terrible reputation for vanity, duck-face-pouts and self indulgence. But [...]

      fuck perfect

      Personal
      Here's the problem with perfect; it's achievable, but not sustainable. You can do it for a night, a day, an event, maybe a while. You can starve yourself skinny or primp yourself pretty, or hoover [...]

      video: a slow afternoon with home & roam

      Living
      A few weeks back Emily & Harrison visited as part of our stay project, and we made a video. I say 'we', but really it was all Emily, of course. I just made the tea, & got on with my [...]

      working from cafes

      Personal
      Three days out of every week, I drive 40 miles back to the city. It's partly because we want Orla to stay at her brilliant, please-be-my-mother childminder, but partly also because I just really [...]

      stuff that works: beauty

      Living
      Beauty blogger I am not, but in my small-ish rant about the 'natural beauty' myth, I promised to share the handful of products I do use and enjoy. On the whole, I find the effectiveness standard [...]

      Stuff that works: Anxiety

      Personal
      Ah, anxiety, my old friend. Except it took me a surprisingly long time to see her as that; so sure that 'anxiety' was something else entirely, a plague on housewives and teenage exam students - all [...]

      here & there (and on Radio 4!)

      Photography & Personal
      It's been an exciting few weeks! On Wednesday I popped along to the Boden press day and gave a little interview to BBC Radio 4 about my instagram experience. (I KNOW!) It was on this morning and [...]

      on magazines

      Personal
      When I was 17, I stopped reading magazines. It was an easy decision, really - not paying £6 a month for a glossy, floppy book of generic advertising and thinly-veiled criticism. In many ways it [...]
