FREE PIZZA NIGHT @ THE STABLE*

I get a few invites to events every now and again, and to be honest; usually I’m too shy to even consider going. A room full of people I don’t know?? No thanks! But then I got an invite to The Stable Free Pizza Night. A room full of free pizza??? YES PLS SIGN ME UP ASAP. 

The Stable has been putting on a Free Pizza Night in each of their 

restaurants around the country as a way of saying thank-you to their customers and welcoming all the new university students to the city. I was so surprised to be invited to their Exeter event, and as an already avid Stable fan, I couldn’t wait to inhale another one of their delicious pizzas.

BABYLISS WAVE ENVY REVIEW | BEFORE + AFTER

I’ve been obsessed with mermaids for as long as I can remember. And what’s the best thing about mermaids? No, it’s not that they can lure idiotic men to their dooms. It’s their beautiful hair, of course (!?!?) When I was younger, in a cruel conspiracy against me, I discovered that I couldn’t french-plait my hair to get those gorgeous beachy waves. I’d beg my sister to plait my hair for me (because she was amazing at it) and ask my mum to try to curl my hair with our straighteners so I could wake up to that sought-after mermaidy texture. 

HAIR TRANSFORMATION @ PINK SAYS

If you’re triggered by overgrown roots, look away now! I hadn’t been to the hairdressers for about six months before I booked in at my favourite hair salon in the UNIVERSE; so there was a whoooole lot of work to be done. I’ve been visiting Pink Says in Teignmouth for about four years now, even making the six-hour journey from London to Teignmouth after I moved away. Now I’m back, I’m so glad they’re on my doorstep again because there isn’t a set of ladies I trust so much with my hair. So, after about six months of re-growth and a strange silvery blonde tone to my hair, I booked in for a 9am appointment with Sam.

WHAT I THOUGHT OF MY FIRST BIRCHBOX IN TWO YEARS

I’ve dabbled in the world of beauty subscription boxes since they were first thrust onto our newsfeeds years and years and years ago. I’ve tried GlossyBox, LookFantastic’s Beauty Box and Birchbox, but never been a real ‘subscriber’ to any of them. I kind of got into the routine of allowing a few month’s worth of boxes drop through my letter box before getting completely offended by one of them, and cancelling my subscription to go looking elsewhere. The last time I ordered a Birchbox was in May of 2017, but when I spotted a discount code for a £5 box + P&P, I decided to give it another whirl. Here’s how I got on…

COFFEE @ PINK MOON

Sometimes, when the mood takes me, I take a break from RuPaul’s Drag Race Quizzes and watching Judge Rinder and I leave the house. Yesterday morning it was for good reason, too, because I went to a job interview in my new city! I feel really positive that I’m getting the ball rolling. *Pause for applause*

I’m perpetually anxiously early, so I decided to arrive in the city three hours before my interview was scheduled to start. After spending my teenagedom hanging around kiddie parks, I’d consider myself a pro-loiterer…except it had just started to rain. But all was not lost, because I’d spotted this little gem of a cafe on my last trip down to Devon and it was top of my list to visit.
