As of late, I have tried my hardest to lower my carbon footprint and use products that harm our beautiful planet as little as possible. I am always on the lookout for new brands that help me do this so was thrilled to hear the announcement about new beauty brand launch Fiils.
Yikes, would you believe it's only 2 weeks till Christmas. This year has just flown by. Considering every day has felt like Groundhog Day, it has gone super quick. I’m sure it's safe to say that we will all be glad to see the back of this year! Christmas seems to be the only thing we have to look forward to before we kick (not a typo. Yes, I do mean kick not kiss) this year goodbye.
Yet, as much as I can’t wait to say ta ta to this beast of a year, I want to share a bit of joy before it's over. So with that said, I bring you my gift guide to help you spread a bit of joy too.
With us being in Black History Month (which also happens to be my birth month - today is my birthday) it has made me reflect on things so I wanted to look at how I can change my own behaviours to help my own community from the inside out. As a community, a lot of us tend to tear each other down instead of building each other up, especially us females
Did you know that only 50% of toiletries are recycled, which is just over half of the 90% of kitchen products which are recycled. Not sure why that is but…
If like me the first time I did Plastic Free July, you aren't too sure on how to do your bit, here are a few ways on how you can cut back on your plastic usage both in and out of the home in order to lower your carbon footprint and help save our beautiful oceans and marine life. The future of our planet really does depend on it.
Being a Mum shouldn't mean that you suddenly stop looking after yourself. In actual fact, you really need to look after yourself more than ever because if you aren't a hundred percent, you could fall ill. Then how will you be able to care for your little person? Here are a few of the ways I make sure I am looking after myself
Never knew I could love someone so much. With all that love in my heart, I thought I'd share with you a few things that I have learnt in these last few months, both while pregnant and as a new Mum.
So, if you follow me on Insta, you would have seen me talking about my obsession with the Sanaa Lathan movie “Nappily Ever After” and me feeling compelled to cut my curls. Well, I did it!
In celebration of International Women's Day, I wanted to talk about some women who are really empowering, especially in the World of animal rights as well women who really inspire me to be my best self!
Now I know that this time of year can be tough for us vegans being surrounded by people gobbling on choccy's, pigs in blankets and slurping on egg nog. But I'm here to help you through that with a few vegan treats that I have found
‘Tis the season for over indulgence and over spending, so I thought I’d help you think of a few ways to dress for your Christmas party whilst still in keeping with your sustainable, ethical lifestyle. It will also help you to save some pennies too

Full disclosure, I know that we are in November but I am still coming to terms with the fact that we are no longer in Summer. Anyone else find that this confusing fluctuation in the weather has been playing havoc with your immune system?
So, after a well deserved blog-break due to all the wedding shenanigans, I am now officially Mrs. King and I am so excited to share my big day with you!
When I first went vegan, it was the first food I thought of when I imagined non-vegan foods that I would miss. But to my utter delight, a few months after going vegan, I found that places such as Zizzi and Pizza Express started to offer vegan options. And recently Pizza Hut actually decided to start stocking vegan cheese to allow vegans to dine there as well as non-vegans.
I never really thought of myself as a vegan activist but as soon as me and my vegan partner in crime Sarah started to stomp the pavements, we were both so pumped by the energy that surrounded us. We marched along with 10,000 fellow vegans, all with one common goal. To end all forms of animal cruelty, once and for all!
Earlier in the year I went to a London Fashion Week event and I was sat there thinking, why am I watching these non vegan designers showcase their pieces?! How good would it be to see an all vegan line up at a fashion show? And low and behold, I was lucky enough to get to go to this amazing all vegan fashion showcase.
Po-Zu's mission statement for this event was:
"Making sustainable fashion and lifestyle choices is about awareness and creating powerful systemic change. How are consumers, journalists, bloggers doing this and what can you be part of the solution? What does our plant-based economy look like & what is fashions part in this?"⠀
I was recently gifted this amazing watch from Yakwood. I have actually been on the hunt for a wooden watch for the longest while and then these guys reach out to me! Thank you Universe, you never let me down!
