Whether you are newly single or a loud and proud singleton this post is dedicated to you. I am sorry but I am more than happy to declare that these things are far superior to having a boyfriend. Hands up who’s with me?



  1. Fake Tanning - Go on admit it; you’ve sacrificed that golden glow for a night of naughty. No straight guy likes the smell or idea of getting into bed with a chimney sweep. Besides no one wants a repeat of 2013’s between the legs tan streaks.
  2. Hobbies - Admittedly I am a bit of a gym addict, and often resented spending the whole weekend with my ex as it meant three whole days away from the gym (he refused to work out with me which is stupid as I was close to lifting as much as him anyway). This might not be a big deal for the average single girl but think about how much time you have for your hobbies now. LOOOAADS. Love it!!!!
  3. Shaving for Self-fulfilment (and not knowing who will bare-witness to such things..ooo cheeky) - Shaving ones legs “just because” is so gratifying. None of that “he’s coming round tonight but I’m already late for work” dilemmas.
  4. SHOPPING - “But you have two pink tops already” Yes but I need a third, what if they are both in the wash and its Wednesday hmm?” No more being judged on how much you spend on clothes, make up, handbags *covers face in shame* #sorrynotsorry.
  5. Social Freedom - Freedom to book and plan holidays and events without checking the joint calendar for you and your partner. No one to answer to. Also, holiday antics…the less said the better? ;)
  6. Wine - AKA” I hate men club”- I would like to highlight that this is not a literal club, neither is it something only single girls do. There is no denying that a good section of girly catch up time is spent slagging of boyfriends, partners, and other men in a girl’s life. When single this is all the more fun as there is a slight venomous tinge allowing one to really “let go” as it were, which is just so satisfying.
  7. BoyFRIEND Bonding - Getting to hang out with your guy mates without feeling and sense of guilt. Even if you’re lucky and your partner is “totally cool” with you spending time with your guy mates, and you know for a fact that nothing is/was/will be between the two of you, girls always feel an essence of guilt or sense of wondering as to what extent the bf is actually ok with it. But not the single girl. She has no one to answer to. Winning!!!!
  8. Matching Underwear - Wearing matching underwear without anyone knowing is so empowering and sexy. AND if anyone is lucky enough to find out...BONUS!!!!
  9. Becoming Closer to Friends - I am not sure if this is just me but I feel a little more myself recently and I find that I am the outgoing confident person I was a while back (possibly pre-bf but I cannot deny or confirm this) I seem to have more time for friends and not only that when I am with friends they have my full attention. Consequently, people seem to be more inclined to open up to me. The recent insight I have had into people’s lives is eye opening and has made me realise a few things about life as a whole.
  10. Hot Pants - I was always very aware that I had a bf and probably shouldn’t wear ridiculously short shorts or that super low cut top. But why? I am not flaunting my body in order to seek attention. I was not going to go home with the first guy that looked my way on girl’s nights, mainly because its girl’s night and we all know the rules on girl’s night ;). So why did I ditch the hot pants and wear the midi dress when my bum and legs are my best asset #shesquats (not being big headed it just fitted and sounded funny. Now I feel awkward and a lot of pressure to improve my bum in case I meet any of you).

This little box was my SUPERhero


On returning from my amazing ski holiday in the breath-taking Dolomites I was greeted with the biggest contrast you could imagine. The clear blue skies and crisp air I had become accustomed to, was replaced with grey damp dreariness. It was Monday 8am and I had almost given up on life already, when I discovered this delightful box of cuteness on my desk.

My Little Superbox is exactly what I needed to get me through my holiday blues, especially as it came with STICKERS-no I am not too old for stickers especially when they are Wonder Woman!!!!


Caudalie’s Hand and Nail Cream (30ml)

This bestselling cream by Caudalie is a blessing in the transition from winter to spring. There is no excuse for brittle skin while saving the world ladies.
Usually £12 for 75ml


Lait Cristal by Kérastase  (75ml)

The Kérastase Cristaliste Haircare Range is one I am yet to try but I have no fear that this conditioning treatment will leave my hair SUPERsoft. The 75ml sample is perfect for testing out the product on your hair type before purchasing items form the range, as although very worthy they are not cheap.
Usually £20 for 200ml


Lips & Cheeks Pencil by My Little Beauty (full size)

Every superhero needs a multi-functional tool. This delicate peach shade is perfect for putting a “spring” back into your makeup bag. I am a huge fan of the simple but cute packaging of the My Little Beauty range and love that they send full size samples of their products.
Usually £10.50 and sold on My Little Corner


T-shirt by Gat Rimon

The little card that accompanied the box read “this t-shirt by Gat Rimon x My Little Box will definitely give you feel good vibes” and I can concur that it did!!!! This French Branded beauty is simple and versatile. Everything you want in a t-shirt.
Usually £29 and sold on www.gatrimon.com/eshop/en


My Little World

I thoroughly enjoyed this month’s addition of “My Little World”. At first glance the magazine was vibrant and fun. I read it on my lunch hour and was delighted with the content-the Super Photo Shoot was a particular favourite for me. 


All in all, I am thus far a big fan of My Little Box. This is the second month I have received one and I am yet to be disappointed.
