8 things all country girls know to be true

Country Girl Rules

If you’re a townie, you can probably smell the difference between your local coffee shops or smell the fresh sea air from your front door but when you’re a country girl and you live in the countryside, you learn to differentiate the smells of which manure the local farmers are spreading on their fields (Pig poo is the worst!) and you think going to a country fair is the highlight of your weekend.

If you think a Barbour jacket is a necessity not a fashion accessory, read on. I found myself nodding at quite a lot of these!

Travel Photodiary – San Francisco

Golden Gate Bridge San Francisco

I thought a photo post would be a great way to convey the spirit of San Francisco without stuffy reviews. I do however have a couple of restaurant reviews left to write but everyone loves pictures of tasty food right?

When I was trying to sit down and plan out my travel posts after our mammoth road trip in America, I found I had more photos than I could ever come up with words to go with.

Finding your inner peace

The Rockies Colorado

I’m still in that post holiday zen chilled out bubble as 3 weeks out of the office with minimal online time and no stress was just what I needed.

I’ve had a few doses of negativity and drama since I got back but I have found it so easy to just cut it and the guilty offenders out of my life instead of fretting about it. I think I have the holiday to thank for that as I don’t want anyone to bring down my relaxed mood!

It seems like I am not the only one wanting inner peace and to minimise stress levels so I have some super handy hints and tips from todays guest – Rebecca Moore

River Island Plus

River Island Plus 2

Last week, the brand new plus size line from River Island launched amid lots of ooh’s and aah’s.

Extending their mainline, the RI Plus range runs from 18 – 24. Whilst there’s a a bit of chatter about stopping at a size 24,  I think there’s a great selection and it is wonderful to see a big chain taking on an extended line.

I have compiled my top picks….. my shopping basket is bulging!
