The Sneaker Series

Hello Sweeties! I feel like I'm living in the generation of sneakers and trainers. It's like everyone has dropped the Gucci pumps (like I ever had any of those . . . . haha!) for some Adidas Superstars or Nike Roshes, and I have to say I'm a lover of the trainer trend. The day that comfortable, cute trainers were in fashion I...

USA Diary: Go For Gold(en Gate Bridge)

July 10th, 2016 Started this morning with an amazing brunch at our hotels buffet. Smoothies, croissants, waffles, I always find buffets quite dangerous because there's so much to eat. I always get carried away and end up feeling a tad overfull! Had a little relax time back in our rooms before heading out on our San Francisco City bus Tour!  ...
