Bliss Bakery!

By -


Today is January 6th, which means it's my sister's birthday! Today she turns 18, which is a biggie! My 18th birthday was the best birthday ever- I was spoilt like I'd never been before, spent the weekend in Amsterdam with my boyfriend and my mum got a fancy cake made that was all of my favourite things- pink, with stars on and a unicorn on the top! 

Of course, my sister Clodagh's birthday is one we have tried to make just as special, and so we got her a fancy cake made too, courtesy of my friend Ricarda, who runs Bliss Bakery. I thought I'd take this time to promote her business a bit as a way of thanking her for her hard work- but this post is in by no means sponsored! I just genuinely want to get my best friend's business out there! 

My sister isn't always the girliest of girls but she does love pink, sparkles and Hello Kitty. Me and my mum soon came up with the perfect design for a cake and ended up sending this image to Ricarda:

Straight away Ricarda went to work. I didn't doubt her as I've seen several of her previous masterpieces, but the end result couldn't have amazed me more. Last night, she turned up at my house with the finished cake...that looked like this:

Me and my mum were amazed at what an excellent cake Ricarda had made, and the fact that not only had she made the numbers on top edible, she had also provided us with cardboard ones that looked the same, should the edible numbers fall off or break! The time, effort and extra thought that went into the cake was so incredible, and all for a very reasonable price too...just £60! 

If you're looking for a cake, for any occasion, Bliss Bakery is definitely one to order from! You can find her on Facebook here and on Instagram at @bliss_bakery_2015. Orders and questions can be made/asked via either of these platforms. And just in case this Hello Kitty masterpiece isn't enough to convince you, here are a few more of her works of art...

Children With Cancer UK Fashion Show!

By -

Friday 27th February 2015 saw the grand event that was a fashion show in London for the fabulous charity, Children with Cancer UK. I was invited to the event about 2 weeks ago as a blogger, to cover the event and raise awareness of the charity. I was honored to have been asked to do so, as the charity is really just so important, as well as super excited to cover a fashion show, as this was something I had never done before! The night was a huge success, and the display of talent was extremely impressive- from the designers work, to the various acts performing in between! The venue was fairly glamorous, based at The Building Centre in London, and upon entry we received glasses of wine, nibbles and goody bags, as well as having the opportunity to mingle with some of the other guests before the show began. When it was time for the show to start, I went to try and seat myself- only to find that because I was "press", I needed to get myself a press pass (which I was thri

#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek - Body Image and Mental Health

By -

This week (13th - 20th May 2019) is Mental Health Awareness Week. This year, the theme is Body Image - how we think and feel about our bodies.  Those of you who have followed me for some time will know that for about two years now, if not more, I have been an advocate for body positivity and self love. More recently, you may have seen me featured in a story in The Metro , talking about a body shaming incident I experienced on holiday and how I dealt with it.  There's absolutely no denying that there is a direct correlation between body image and our mental health. I know that personally, when I'm experiencing a "bad body day" and don't feel very positively about my body, for whatever reason, my mental health goes down the drain too. Yet when we feel good about our bodies, this can be reflected in our mental health too.  When I experienced body shaming in my bikini on holiday, I felt the lowest I had in a while. I believed the words I'd heard -

Eating Disorders- the Blunt Truth.

WARNING:  The following content is sensitive and me be triggering to those suffering from, recovering from or who have recovered from eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia and other health problems such as depression. As I sit down in my local pub ready to tuck into my generous portion of gammon and chips, I feel a prickle on the back of my neck- that all to familiar feeling of knowing that someone is staring at you. As I whip my head around the dining area, my eyes fall on the slender figure of a girl, probably around my age, maybe a few years younger, looking at me with disgust in her eyes- disgust clearly at the way I look and what I'm eating. I feel fat, bulky, uncomfortable and I let my glance fall to her own plate, noticing she has a salad, mostly untouched. She sips constantly at her water like it's the only thing keeping her alive. It probably is. It is a sad but true statistic that over half of teenage girls and one third of teenage boys use unhealthy wei
