My Little Paris comes to the UK *does the Can-can*


Last week I visited the offices of My Little Paris - in Paris. Obvs. Luckily for us they are launching in the UK in September so a few of us went over to meet the founders and spend the day with them. My Little Paris is so much more than your bog standard beauty box - enough already *yawns* - they are a website, newsletters, magazines - think Time Out with a Parisian beauty/fashion/lifestyle twist. 

The offices give the best impression of what to expect.....

Rufus. Can you imagine? This is what she looks like on an 'off-duty' day. Cow.



The boxes contain everything from sets of brushes to scarves, full size beauty products, sunglasses, purses - it literally changes every month. There are no teeny sachet samples of moisturisers or nail polishes in colours that didn't sell here.


That's the view. I know. I hate them too.






Literally the office of my dreams.

Different themes every month



I'm just gonna leave this here LOL

My Little Box launches officially in September. If I was their rival 'bog standard' beauty boxes I would be very, very worried.

You can sign up and see more information here: mylittlebox.co.uk






* We were all guests of MLP for the day - this is not a sponsored post. Just sharing the love.

The Vegan Kind


There are a lot - a LOT of monthly subscription boxes around at the moment. The one that I am always the most excited to receive is the one from The Vegan Kind. Now I am not vegan - I was vegetarian for a long time in my late teens (until pregnancy cravings got the better of me) and have leaned that way again recently, but no, I'm not vegan. 

This box however, is a joy for anyone with leanings toward a healthier lifestyle. Launched in November of last year, TVK are about to send out their 10th box and are growing rapidly.


The brainchild of Karris Mcculloch, a long term vegetarian who turned vegan after seeing horrifying video footage of the dairy industry (I've done the same recently, you will think twice about dairy and at the very least, go organic - I guarantee it).
As with a lot of the best business ideas, something stemming from genuine passion has flourished into a great success story.


If you're interested in signing up for The Vegan Kind, you can do so via the links below. They've introduced me to the best chocolate bar I've ever tasted and unlike a lot of the boxes around at the moment, this one has a real point of difference and I get genuinely excited when it arrives.

The boxes are £10.00 plus shipping. A steal.






I know it sounds like it - but I have absolutely no relationship with TVK. And this is not a sponsored post LOL.
