I'm 19, I promise...!

2015 has seen the start of the newest, cutest, squishiest trend...Disney's Tsum Tsum's!

Tsum's Tsum's are plush toys created by Disney that are tube like in length and shape, fuzzy and, of course, are popular Disney characters, including Princess Elsa, Woody, Buzz, Alice in Wonderland and loads more. All of them are super cute (although I find the 'people' one's a little freaky...!)

The name 'tsum tsum' is derived from the Japanese verb "tsumu" which means "to stack" because, as you can see from above, these cute lil' toys are designed to be stacked in a pyramid shape! They came in a variety of sizes, from teeny tiny palm sized plushies, to medium sized ones, to giant, squidgy, cuddly ones! 


Anyway, I started my own tsum tsum collection a couple of months ago, when my sister introduced them to me, and my first character was Marie, from Aristocats. Since then, she has been joined by Dumbo and Sven, from Frozen- both who are incredibly cute. 



Disney have been growing their range of tsum tsum's constantly which really excites me but also makes my bank account scream in terror. "You're 19! Nearly 20! You do not need to collect soft toys!!!!!"

Bank account, you are so wrong. How can I deny myself these adorable little creatures? Personally, I am only sticking to the mini range, as they sit nicely on top of my bed head, and at only £3 each, it doesn't really break the bank that much...

So as we get closer and closer to pay day, I decided to make a wishlist of the tsum tsum's I crave the most right now!!


Left to right, row by row.

Scrump from Lilo and Stitch (that's right! They made a toy...of a characters toy!)

Flounder from The Little Mermaid.

Captain Jumba from Lilo and Stitch.

Waldo the Lucky Rabbit from classic Disney shows.

Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh.

Hamm from Toy Story.

One of the aliens from Toy Story.

Figaro from Pinnochio.

Jiminy Cricket from Pinnochio.

Roo from Winnie the Pooh.

The Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland.

Cruella de Vil from 101 Dalmations (despite not liking the people ones, I love her crazy hair!)


I had tweeted that I wished there was a Cheshire Cat so was thrilled when I saw one listed...however, I think he could have been fuzzier and brighter, so I'm a little disappointed! My two utmost favourites are definitely Figaro and Jiminy Cricket...they are so cute! 

Have you started a tsum tsum collection? Who do you already have, and who do you want? 

If not, do you want to start a collection? Who will you start with? 

Let me know in the comments below!

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
