Beauty was always a side-line to my love of fashion until I undertook the role of Fashion & Beauty Editor of SCAN. It opened my eyes to talking about something just as, if not even more, artistic than fashion.  Ever since I was little, I always loved doing my eyeshadow and that still continues to… Continue reading beauty :: graphic

I dreaded waking up today to the 10am release of second year results. It didn't help that I woke up 45 minutes early - I had to fill that time with something other than crippling anxiety. When 10am came, my first demonic thought came: "Why are you even bothering at university Anna"; the second, "You're… Continue reading life :: continue

For a long time I wore big earrings, particularly a pair of white roses, because they always suited the floral shirts I was (and still am) so obsessed with. And then I went through the statement necklace phase.… Continue reading fashion :: by invite only

This decision sounds like it could have been one-sided but even as a complete roll-of-the-eyes Star Wars "is a bit stupid" non-fan i.e newbie, I wanted to see it.  Of course I was made (in the politest of "watch this before… Continue reading life :: the force awakens

Hola, a late Feliz Navidad from meeeee. I hope you have all had a lovely Christmas and I wish you the most wonderful New Year.  My festivities this year were just as splendid as usual - lots of turkey, stuffing and my favourite...HONEY-GLAZED PARSNIPS.
