There’s No Smoke Without Fire
Mum - for whenever you next stalk my Twitter and dig this up, I'm sorry. But it makes for a compelling story. When I was, say, 5 or 6, I was at my Nan’s house. I got a placemat to use as a steering wheel, and mimed my mum driving the car, swearing at everyone... Continue Reading →
The Southern Rail Train Strikes – a poem
It's quarter to eleven And I've just got home. I left the house at seven This morning, two and half hours before work, in the vague hope Of finding a train that will take me anywhere near London. But nope, It's strike day so here I stand, a sheep in a flock. I'm bored now.... Continue Reading →

Typecast – Why It’s Fine To Only Date Your ‘Type’
What do you say when you're asked what your "type" is? Do you say you don't have one? Or do you sum it up with one generic point that draws you into your date of choice? The fact they're over 6ft tall, for example, or with a shining head of ginger hair? What's the cookie-cutter... Continue Reading →
21 Things Men Still Haven’t Learnt About Tinder
You don’t have to be a playboy loving lad to know that Tinder probably isn’t the best and most reliable route to love in the modern era. Us millennials love a quick swipe - it’s as simple as online shopping, with all the flirt of Friday night drinks but with the luxury of Sunday night... Continue Reading →
The Man Behind the Suit
I have a new love of my life - Harvey Specter. Well that’s not entirely true; he’s been the love of my life for 3-4 years now, for being the lead legal genius on the TV show Suits. He struts around in his tailored Tom Ford three piece, his perfectly in-place quaffed back hairstyle, his... Continue Reading →
Not All Heroes Wear Capes
Panic not - this isn't a blog about my infinite love of Thor. Although he is the best hero around. Dur. When we’re growing up, we’re always encouraged to find a ‘role model’. For some reason, apparently Wayne Rooney was a big role model of my generation, as were the wealth of scantily clad popstars... Continue Reading →
Comparison is the Thief of Joy
I really need to learn to stop comparing myself to others. Everyone posts their happiest and most amazing photos for everyone to see. I do exactly the same thing so I don’t know why this surprises me. Every photo is edited and filtered and changed to make us look the prettiest, the funniest, like we’re... Continue Reading →

Promoting What You Love
I suddenly realised that I’ve been being posh ol’ Rebecca for nearly a whole year now. Mini whoop! My life is unrecognisable from this point last year. I’ve met new people, I’ve seen new places, I’ve experienced some of the greatest things on earth. Which is totally cheesy but I’ve genuinely done quite a lot... Continue Reading →

After a string of already edgy chart successes, talking about men’s hatred of skinny bitches and men’s love of lying, so now she’s taking... Continue Reading →
5 Reasons We’re All Allowed To Be Selfish
Life is stressful. Life demands us to follow protocol on a daily basis. Life tells us what we should and shouldn't be doing. And, sometimes, it's not what we'd do if we had the choice ourselves. Here are 5 reasons why we should all be a little more selfish, and embrace the positives that come with... Continue Reading →
‘Just a TV show…’
Even though I am what many would describe as an ‘unconfident driver’, I have always been a bit of a petrol head. I don’t really know where it came from - my dad works in the motor trade, listing off parts numbers to 10 year old Audis like I do lyrics to McBusted - but... Continue Reading →

Why It’s Okay To Enjoy The ’50 Shades Of Grey’ Phenomenon
So I loved Fifty Shades of Grey. The books, the movie, the hype surrounding it - I am Pro millionaires and their sex dungeons. Yet the internet is full of reviews from people who haven't read the books or haven't seen the film and still categorically hate the concept. So here is a little... Continue Reading →
