Video: Throwback to Summer – My July Favourites!

Hi friends! Okay, I know what you’re thinking with this one: seriously Steph, July favourites? Well, yes. It just so happens that I have a whole bunch of videos tucked away on my harddrive that have never seen the light of day… until now. I wasn’t going to bother uploading it, but I figured that…

Sample Sundays: Missha Super Aqua Oxygen Micro Visible Deep Cleanser (Review)

Hi everyone! So we are back with another Sample Sundays, as promised, and today I am bringing you a mini review of a Missha product that I had never used before. To be honest, when I first arrived in Korea, Missha didn’t interest me too much. I thought the lights were a bit glary (they…

I Think I’ve Died and Gone to Thailand

Hi friends, I am writing this to you from my plush, enormous bed in a Krabi resort. I promised myself I wouldn’t be smug in this post, except I’ve already broken that promise (and I didn’t actually make that promise anyway… uh oh). But in my defence, I am completely in awe of this place called…

The Liebster Award!

Hi friends, So a little while ago I was kindly nominated for a Liebster Award by the lovely Rose. She runs a super cute blog which features a lot of Korean cosmetics (to my utmost delight). For any of you that don’t know (including me, until I received Rose’s message), the Liebster Award is basically…

My Type of Feminism: Neither Shaken, Nor Stirred

Hey friends, Happy International Women’s Day! Today I thought it would be fitting to touch on something perhaps a bit serious, a bit studious, maybe even a little bit… scandalous?! And that is the often contentious subject of FEMINISM. Run for ye lives lads! Arghhhhh the she-wolves are a-comin’! (*ahem* Just saying what we’re all thinking!…

My Plans for 2014

Hi friends, Can you believe we are in February already? Crazy! This weekend has been Lunar New Year here in Korea (also known as Chinese New Year) and so I feel it is still an appropriate time to list my New Year’s Resolutions. They may be a bit delayed in Western time, but in this…

The Pit & The Peak of My Week

Hey y’all, So lately I have been focusing more on my blog and becoming involved with the blogging community. Although I have done this before, I feel a bit out of touch and am feeling my way back. Blogs in 2014 are different to what they were in the early 2000s, and instead of the…

Sunrise and shine!

It is a beautiful morning right now in Melbourne. I unfortunately missed the sunrise this morning (although you would never guess it from this snazzy blog post title!) but I am enjoying it nonetheless. We are still in winter, and although it has been a bone-chilling cold one this year, it is still a very…
