Feel Good Fashion & Beauty Tips
I hope you’ve been keeping cosy this week and layering up - winter is on it’s way and there has been a chill in the air! I have returned from Greece supporting DASH Dogs during Greek Week which you can read about in my previous blog post, and shared with you exciting news and collaborations from the fashion and beauty world.
I’m rounding up this week’s Feel Good Fashion & Beauty favourites from my content on Instagram, TikTok & YouTube
Harry & Meghan’s Styling Secrets
Have you seen the latest portraits from Harry & Meghan? Despite the similarities between the general feel of the images, the actual styling of the couple could not be more different - I loved sharing their styling secrets, and hearing your thoughts about it over on my Instagram!

Spirit Of Christmas Fair
Shop in festive style at Spirit of Christmas Fair at the one and only Kensington Olympia!
If you haven’t been yet, you still have the rest of the week to catch up, it really is a one stop shop for all your Christmas shopping needs as well as being a brilliant day out. I had the most fabulous day today, sampled a tonne of delicious festive food, had a lovely lunch and made a serious dent in my shopping list!
One of the best things about the fair is that there are so many small independent brands offering really unique and lovely gifts, I’m leaving with arms laden, smug in the knowledge that there will be lots of happy faces on Christmas Day, and I am more than a few steps ahead in the preparations.
Highly recommended - tickets are still available if you haven’t been already: https://www.spiritofchristmasfair.co.uk 💫

My Winter Wellness Morning Routine
Darker days definitely call for a bit of extra self-care, so I make sure the first hour of my day is spent investing in my wellness, which helps to maintain my mental health as the days get shorter and the sun more scarce.
Here is a little taster of some of the things I regularly do to banish those winter blues:
After hydrating with a big glass of lemon and sea salted water (for electrolytes) I listen to my morning affirmations while brushing my teeth, then get some movement in. This can be gentle yoga some days or a full on weights workout (great for Perimenopause) if I feel up to it, my body always thanks mr afterwards.
Gratitide: I always make a list of a few things I’m grateful for, either in my journal or, if I’m on the run just saying it out loud. This raises my vibe and puts things in perspective, ready for a positive day 😊
A cold shower - this is super simple and has so many benefits… it lowers inflammation, reduces pain, lowers stress and energises you up for the day - top tip: Start with the cold water on the vagus nerve (back of the neck) first and the rest will be more bearable. Start slowly and build up!
Lymphatic Massage - I can get a puffy face in the mornings (which can be a sign of low progesterone btw) and this helps me fix it.
Lashes and makeup - look good, feel good! Putting my game-face on sets me up for a great day 💫
Accessories - even if I’m wearing the simplest of outfits, adding a few well-chosen accessories makes the look feel complete and stylish.
Supplements - Did you know that thanks to modern farming, the food we eat, even if we have a balanced diet doesn’t contain all the nutrients we need? My current faves are Potters Herbal they are great value, based upon years of expertise and help me feel my best.
Potters are available to purchase at Boots, Superdrug and at Amazon if you use MIRANDA10 you can get 10% off! Shop online: https://amzn.to/3FuETBo
