Tumblr and Pinterest

While looking for my blogging mojo lately, I decided to sort out the disgusting mess that is my laptop(s). I originally set up my Tumblr as a way of achieving my inspiration (for my future home etc.) but then I came across Pinterest and see you later Tumblr, I've found a new online toy! If you are not a member...I think you should become one. It's as easy as a click to add things to your mood boards and you can have as many as you like!

So...you can now follow my mood boards on Pinterest here and my random/travel/photo diary on Tumblr. I think it's a happy compromise and I certainly feel more organised for it.

Please let me know if you are using either of these as I'd love to find some lovely visuals to follow! NHG x

What's in my bag...

I love having a sneaky peek at what other women carry around in their bags. I guess it's the whole curiosity factor, and whenever I see a woman carrying an extremely large bag I always think "what on earth do you have in there?!".

Grazia featured an insight into what women carry around this week so I thought I'd share the inside of my handbag with you...I've started walking to work now that it's summer so there is really no room to carry around anything other than the essentials to prevent an aching back.

What's in my bag...Chanel sunglasses, Nuxe Rive de Miel hand cream, Kit cosmetics peppermint lip sheen, MAC kissable lip colour in two different shades, Mulberry Mitzy pouch (for painkillers, hayfever tablets, a pen, tampons etc), Marc Jacobs keyring, iPhone 4 and a Miu Miu purple purse. I also carry a Marc Jacobs red heart shaped pocket mirror which I left at work on Friday...And I carry it all around in my Mulberry Bayswater bag in Oak! NHG x
