the great boohoo bake off.

WHEEEEEEE! You guys! I'm sure you're all completely aware, but The Great British Bake Off is back on our telly boxes in a matter of mere hours! You're probably also aware that I don't need much of an excuse to bake, so when I was asked if I wanted to be part of The Great Boohoo Bake Off, my answer was obviously a massive yes! 

Read on for some scrummy cupcake recipes and a stupid gif of me nomming down on one of my creations..

salmon baked in a parcel.

This dinner is so darn delicious and easy that I cooked it twice last week - once for my lunch (pictured in this here blog post) and again for my chef boyf who said it was "lush". High praise indeed, so you should probably give this one a go! 

original summer - great british seaside.

I've been to Weston-super-Mare a few times in my life - once with a boyfriend when I was 20, living in Bristol, and slowly dropping out of uni. We went on Valentines Day and it was actually pretty sweet, despite how cold and grey it was. I also went last year with one of my BFFs and her sister, in the hopes of seeing Backstreet Boys, however they pulled out of their gig on the beach. I was NOT impressed, and I still haven't forgiven them. 

doisy & dam superfood chocolate.

Here are two facts that you should probably know about me by now: 1) if something is visually pleasing, I'll probably like it. 2) I eat chocolate pretty much every day. I need that delicious stuff. So, naturally, when I saw Doisy & Dam chocolate, I knew it needed to be in my possession ASAP!

retro summer.

Pretty sure I mentioned this in my last outfit post, but I have been LOVING the mid-season sales. There have been so many awesome pieces that have caught my eye, and this dress was one of them. It has perfectly retro vibes, especially when teamed with some chunky shoes and a timeless bag.
