Let’s ava catch up!

Eeh dear it’s been a while ant it! I thought I’d do a little catch up post of what I’ve been up to and my favourite things of February. First of all I’m just getting over a DOUBLE whammy illness and broken rib so that’s been fun. Have you ever...

Embracing the Worst Case Scenario

Hello! It’s been a while hasn’t it? Following on from my last blog I thought I’d talk about challenging myself and how I’ve already been doing that this year. As you know, I have a lot of anxieties about doing everyday tasks. I can officially say that I’m well...

Keep smiling, look fo’t silver lining

When opening social media at the moment I hold my breath and prepare for the next ‘breaking news’ of 2016. What a year, I’m not going to go into my thoughts on the world, deaths and politics right now because it’s a bit grim isn’t it. Instead I thought I’d write...

Every Little Helps

Don’t worry – this isn’t an ad for a well known supermarket. This time of year there’s a lot of shopping going on. People are #PANICKING. Shopping can be a hard task for me as a disabled person anyway like traveling to the actual shops etc but add in...

Can I just ask?

Today is International day of persons with disabilities (I always find the “persons” bit weird…) and I thought I’d answer the most common questions I get asked, mostly by strangers, at least once a month, just for the lols *note: this blog may contain wit and sarcasm How old...

Small arms, great barn(et)

One thing I love, if you can’t tell already is taking time on my appearance and my hair is no different. However, having short arms can make make this a difficult and sometimes infuriating task. It’s taken a lot of years to practise and a lot of patience to master styling...

Storage, String and Stick on Silicon

Everyone knows I talk about my grabber a great deal, it’s the varnish to my nail – the air to my tyre. Recently I’ve had a little revamp of my room, and since going through it all I realised I have a few more items that I couldn’t live...

Looks, Layers and too many Leaves

Before we start, let’s just establish – I’m Northern. So I’m still not wearing a winter coat and I probably won’t even start wearing a scarf until December. I’m not ridiculous though, I know it’s starting to get cold now so I thought I’d tell you what usually starts...

What’s in my Bag?

Whilst we’re still waiting for fashion to sort itself out (cc my last blog) let me tell you a fun fact. If anyone doesn’t know, my mum is a pretty great sewer. For a long time I was a nightmare of a daughter and refused any offer of clothes making...

The Season of Shiny Shoes

Hello one and all Let’s all just establish one thing – I’m not a regular blogger. I’m sorry, I’m disappointed too. The point of this particular blog in the first place however, is to tell you what fashion pieces I’m loving at the moment and if I’m really honest, it’s not...
