Review: Inkifi Prints
Do you remember a time when you used to take your camera to Boots and actually print your holiday photos off? As in real, physical, photos?

3 Stylish But Comfortable Travelling Shoes #FridayEdit
Most things I do in life now revolve around comfort. How comfortable are the seats on the plane? How much legroom is there? How warm will I be? How cold will I be? Should I risk wearing jeans and a tight waist band? You'd think I was 70-something instead of 40-something. I am particularly known for being rubbish wearing any shoes that aren't flat. Even when I was young, I could never quite balance on tottering high heels like my friends but now … [Read more...]
