Are Instagram friendships real?

News & OpinionsBy samanthathestyleeditorFebruary 16, 20211 Comment

Ping, ping. My phone flashed up with a notification. ‘Saw this, thought of you,’ the DM read. It was accompanied by a meme which completely summed me up. The woman who sent it to me has become a good friend. And yet I’ve never been in the same room as her. On Galentine’s Day –

Am I The Only One Not On Board With Podcasts?

Culture, News & OpinionsBy AmyFebruary 16, 20211 Comment

Ok, It’s probably about to get controversial, but I don’t think I’m a podcast kind of girl. When it comes to music, listening to curated playlists or live radio I’m all for it, and the chat too. When it comes to podcasts I just can’t seem to get into them. Podcast Popularity It seems that

Today I had the COVID-19 Vaccine

Health, News & OpinionsBy AmandaFebruary 13, 2021Leave a comment

I wanted to share this experience with you as I know so many people are feeling all the emotions about the vaccination programme and whether we will ever get out of this awful year we have all had. And to be honest, like many of us, I only know a handful of people that have

Kelly’s experience with male friendships

Life, News & OpinionsBy KellyFebruary 13, 2021Leave a comment

Friendship is a funny thing isn’t it? The act of just finding a person and claiming them in a sense. I wouldn’t say I’ve struggled with it as such but I’ve always been quite introverted in a way, perfectly happy in my own company and always tending to stick to small friendship groups. I’ve been

Raw, Real and Heart-wrenching: Why I (La-) Loved It’s A Sin

Culture, News & OpinionsBy LexFebruary 13, 2021

I was never taught about HIV and AIDS at school. I can’t recall ever having a frank discussion about HIV and AIDS with my friends or family. But I thought, despite being a cis-gendered, heterosexual woman, who definitely considers herself an active LGBTQ+ ally, that I knew about HIV and AIDS. I was wrong. This

7 Reasons Why Lockdown Is Particularly Hard On Mothers

News & OpinionsBy DivamumFebruary 10, 2021Leave a comment

So, here it is, the reason, or at least my version as to why lockdown is hard/harder on mothers. It won’t apply to everyone, and it’s not meant as sexist scripture, but it’s my interpretation as a mother. Having spoken to other mothers our experiences differ but I think collectively we’re all feeling a little

Peaky Blinders: Are We Ready For A Final Series?

Culture, News & OpinionsBy AmyJanuary 29, 2021Leave a comment

Much-loved gangster series Peaky Blinders is back filming this month and Instagram made the news very clear with the most obvious imagery possible, Tommy Shelby’s series 6 haircut. The photo sent fans into a frenzy, followed by a string of more posts from Peaky’s official Instagram page, confirming filming on series 6 was officially underway.   Image: PeakyBlindersOfficial via

Following news that Sex and the City spin-off will definitely be happening, ‘I couldn’t help but wonder’ whether it’s a good thing or not. Like so many people on the planet, I’m a SATC superfan. Yep, that’s right. I’ve seen the series eight times, watched both films, bought the books and even did my university

The Inauguration – Lucy’s Thoughts

News & OpinionsBy LucyJanuary 25, 2021Leave a comment

Joe Biden is in, Donald Trump is out. How good does it feel to say that out loud?!   I avidly watched my TV screen on Wednesday 20th January to watch the Inauguration of Joe Biden and I can honestly say that everybody on my Twitter feed was doing the same. It was honestly the

I couldn’t help but wonder, is bringing Sex and the City back a good idea?
