Capsule wardrobe #1: Checkered skirt
This checkered skirt is something I saw and knew immediately that I wanted as part of my Autumn / Winter wardrobe.

I was recently talking to a colleague about sugar, specifically a chocolate cupcake, and how he believed that eating that cupcake was as bad for you as going outside and smoking 8 cigarettes.

DIY cabinet re-vamp
When we bought our house the previous owner left behind this cabinet. It was originally a dark wood, then I painted it a mint colour which was a trend at the time, now it’s definitely not my vibe. I was inspired to re-vamp this cabinet after seeing these black sideboards on Pinterest.
