    WELLNESS AT ALPAMARE SPA, SCARBOROUGH: A SPA DAY BY THE SEASIDE

    Our day at the spa & treatments were a complimentary in exchange for an honest review.

    WELLNESS AT ALPAMARE SPA, SCARBOROUGH: A SPA DAY BY THE SEASIDE.

    Who would have thought that hidden upstairs, inside one of Scarborough’s busiest, most family orientated venues, would lie a wellness spa like no other? After you had queued up with all the big kids, gotten your robes from the check in desk and headed down to the joint changing facilities and straight up the wheelchair accessible lift, that all the commotion of the water slides and wave pools would be calmly left behind. After taking a trip with Lucy, Here’s my review of the Wellness at Alpamare Spa, Scarborough: A spa day by the Seaside!

    A MIDSIZE GALS GUIDE TO 36 HIGH WAISTED BIKINIS TO WEAR THIS SUMMER

    For some, slapping on a bikini can be one of the most daunting experiences of a woman’s life. We are fed so much divisive bullshit about “how we should look in a bikini” to the opposite end of the scale of preaching self love and embracing every inch and curve (and belly roll!) It can be hard, as I teeter both lines all the time, one moment I feel like I have zero confidence in myself to wear a bikini to the next of feeling like a bad-ass bitch who works her midsize curves. I’ve bought quite a lot of high waisted bikini’s over the last year or so, and they’ve all made me babin’ (especially this one) and I feel my most confident and comfortable in this style, so here is a midsize gals guide to high waisted bikinis to wear this summer!

    I’ve tried to pick options from different sites that I know are true to size and currently (as I write this post) have stock available from size 10 – 18 and Medium to Large. I had so much fun picking out my favourites, some are classic styles that will last a life time and others are current trends.

    A NON-MINIMALISTS STYLE GUIDE TO MINIMALISM

    At the grand old age of 29, I am yet to fully embrace a signature style. I know, I know, it seems silly to not really know exactly what my style is but usually my off-duty look can be jeans, a tee and vans but there are the times I need to make an effort and pulling an outfit together can become quite the chore when you’re not entirely sure what suits you and what doesn’t. I crave the wardrobe of Erica Davies – the bold prints and the clashing of them, the floaty dresses and the perfectly quaffed hair make me go all *heart eye emoji* but I often wish I could pull off a more, minimalistic chic look like Lizzy or Ropes of Holland. Their style is something out of a fashion spread and I can’t help but envy how they pull it off. So, for a gal who doesn’t quite know what she wants from her wardrobe here is a non-minimalists style guide to minimalism!

    Press Review Invitation

    It’s an absolute wonder that the Ivy haven’t opened their doors up North sooner, but I guess the term, “better late than never” is pretty accurate on this. I was recently invited to enjoy cocktails at the Jo Malone Garden Terrace at the Ivy, Harrogate to celebrate Jo Malone’s new “Blossoms” range.
