The Glow Standard: What We Can Learn from Korean Beauty *

24th February 2026      Lisa      Leave a Comment

glow-standard-korean-beauty

AD | There’s a reason Korean beauty continues to set the glow standard worldwide. It’s not built on quick fixes or miracle claims, but on consistency, skin literacy, and a deep respect for the skin barrier. At its core, Korean skincare is less about covering imperfections and more about cultivating luminosity through thoughtful formulation and…

COLLABORATIVE POST | As we age, our skin becomes thinner and more prone to showing an uneven tone. That’s where a good BB cream comes in as it not only provides light coverage, it also offers many skin benefits. If you choose a heavy foundation, it could settle into fine lines, whereas BB creams create a…

Italian Rail Hospitality: Luxury Interiors and the Shifting Horizons of the Latin Heartland *

18th February 2026      Lisa      Leave a Comment

italian-rail-hospitality

AD | Movement across Italy rarely begins with urgency. Even in larger train stations, the atmosphere feels measured – announcements echoing without sharpness, light filtering through high windows onto polished floors. The act of departure feels embedded in routine rather than heightened into spectacle. Outside, the landscape waits without dramatic gesture. Hills soften into distance,…

Epic European Corridors: Montmartre’s Bohemian Alleys to the Royal Mile’s Stone Wynds *

17th February 2026      Lisa      Leave a Comment

AD | Some journeys begin long before you recognise a place. You feel them in posture rather than position – the way pace shifts, how attention widens or narrows without instruction. In Europe, movement often carries its own atmosphere, softening expectations before streets or landmarks appear. Montmartre in Paris and the Royal Mile in Edinburgh…

AD | Planning a holiday that pleases everyone, from your energetic six-year-old to your relaxation-seeking parents, can often feel like an impossible puzzle. One wants adventure, the other wants comfort, and you just want everyone to get along. And while I usually champion the freedom of solo travel, there is something special about gathering the…

🌈 Our beloved hobo has taken his last journey. Yes 🌈 Our beloved hobo has taken his last journey. Yesterday evening we had to say farewell to Ginger at nearly 21 years old. 

13 years ago he wandered into our greenhouse and decided ours was his new home. So many memories:

😻 He saw us through Buzz, Lily, and Jester, and the arrivals of Spooky, Loki, and Lyra. 
😻 Always the most chilled cat, not interested in fighting any other cats, ours or visitors.
😻 Greediest cat ever, not even willing to share with the resident hedgehogs. He could hear the sound of someone walking into the kitchen from 5 miles away.
😻 An inveterate bin diver – our neighbours got used to seeing their recycling spread across the road after he’d gone searching for food.
😻 Always commandeering the warmest spot in the garden or house.
😻 Putting up with Spooky always seeking him out and snuggling up with him.
😻Somehow generating more heat than a volcano, so we could never tolerate him on our laps for more than 10 minutes, we’d have to move him next to us instead.
😻 Always knowing when any of us needed comfort or company and snuggling up to offer purring support.

RIP, Ginger, thank you for choosing us, we were privileged to have you as part of our family, and you leave the biggest hole in all our hearts. 😿
Beautiful few hours working in the garden yesterda Beautiful few hours working in the garden yesterday, with my little black panther keeping me company. Love you, Loki! 🖤

Aka Common Laccaria, Waxy Laccaria, Lackluster Laccaria, Deceiver, apparently they’re edible. But as I’m not a fungi expert, I don’t think I’ll be harvesting them for mushrooms on toast any time soon!

If you don’t have any of these perennials in your outside space, you’re missing a trick. 

Happy in pots, baskets, and the ground, ours have survived frost, snow and can’t be beaten for fabulously cheerful pops of colour at this time of year. Highly recommended! 👌

And to prune them hard, taking lots of cuttings for new plants. I do this every year, and my plant loving friends all know what they’ll be getting in due course! 💖
