The Made Manchester Supper Club

A few weeks ago I rushed from work in the ridiculous British heatwave to what promised to be a rather civilised evening with Made at their very first Manchester Supper Club at the brand new UNCLE apartment block in central Manchester. I however arrived rather unkempt and entirely uncivilised looking like I'd been dragged through a hedge backwards but thankfully, nobody judged my questionable appearance.

We were there to explore the new UNCLE apartments that are all kitted out in brand new Made.com furniture to see the new additions to their huge range. I'm a big fan of Made and spend far too long filling up my basket instead of doing the housework. If you haven't heard of them (where have you been and go visit their site now) Made is an online home, furniture and home accessories store where each piece is made to order direct from designers, cutting out the middle man that usually adds on £££ in the process making designer furniture accessible to all. Hoorah.

What to Wear to a Summer Wedding

 

It seems like all of Joe's friends have decided to get married (not to each other I might add) this year, with quite a few of them landing in summer which means multiple 'what do I wear??' breakdowns. Instead of leaving it to the last minute, I've plotted my plan of attack to make sure I'm not sat on a mountain of clothes crying the night before each occasion.

I settled on three tips to keep in mind when prepping your wedding guest outfit, they have worked for me so far and hopefully will help you too.

A Day in the Life | Challenge Bodyform

Sunday is oddly one of the busiest days of the week for me. It's the day I get my blog sorted for the week ahead, squeeze in exercise and try to see friends as well as having a lazy night at home with Joe to get us ready for the work week ahead. Bodyform challenged me to take you with me on a usual day in my life,  so I thought I'd bring you along with me for a busy Sunday.

Because Bodyform isn't just for that time of the month, I put their Daily Fresh Liners to the test to see if they stood up to their promises. Sometimes I 100% just want to laze around in bed all day but I drag myself out of bed and make the most of the day, with the Daily Fresh Liners I have one less thing to worry about as I rush around.

A Day Trip to Melton Mowbray

Fun fact about me; I love pork pies. They are hands down my favourite food. I know they are neither refined nor healthy, but they are bloody delicious. One day I was professing my love of pork pies to Joe as I so often do, and asked him to promise that he would one day take me to Melton Mowbray, the home of my very favourite variety of pork pie.

Being the delightful creature he is, he sent me a booking confirmation the very next day and we started planning our trip. I know most bloggers are posting about the Maldives or Cuba or somewhere equally exotic but all I need is a little town famed for its porky delicacies.

The Best Accessory for a Budget Flight

One of my favourite things about flying is that I get to watch films. Ever since I was little when we went on family holidays to Menorca, back in the day when about 4 rows of seats used to share one TV that emerged from the overhead baggage, this was my favourite part of the flight. My mum still asks 'what films did you watch?' as a priority when we get back from holiday!

But in recent years budget airlines have taken over and we've become more savvy when it comes to saving on travel costs. The problem with budget airlines is that all of the fun of watching films is taken away, don't get me wrong, I'd much rather save hundreds of pounds by travelling with a budget airline but it does make me a little bit sad that I don't have the excitement of getting to choose a film to keep me occupied.
