The Maiden Voyage Of My Shore Projects Watch

Hello Lovelies, 

On my birthday list this year was a Shore Projects Poole Watch.  I had been poring over their beautiful Instagram page for a while and had fallen in love with their watches and philosophy.  

Shore Projects are a watch brand that was started by a group of friends who wanted to create a timeless timepiece of great quality that could be worn everyday. 

The watches are inspired by the British Seaside, so I thought the best way to show you lovelies was to take it to it's natural habitat and have a little photo shoot!      

The watches have an interchangeable strap mechanism that allows you to easily swap the straps.  I was luck enough to be given a light brown leather strap alongside my watch, but there are lots of different straps available, from the Classic collection to Leather and Polka Dots; these allow you to transform the look and feel of your watch in just a few seconds.  

I am in love with my watch, It looks just as fab with jeans and a waterproof on the beach as it does with a dress and heels to work, it's a real winner.  If you have fallen for this watch as much as I have then you can buy them Online, at Liberty or pop to their stand in Westfield shopping center.  

Are you a watch fan or are you someone who just asks someone else for the time?

Hello Lovelies,

I am definitely one for snacking, but my problem is that it's hard to grab the good snacks when you're on the go, the shelves are full of crisps sweets and chocolate bars, all easy to eat on the go but not particularly good for you.

Popchips are the answer to my prayers, they aren't fried or baked, they are instead popped like our favourite cinema snack. They have less than half the fat of fried crisps and are less than 100 calories per serving so great for those who are health conscious. 

They are "naturally" delicious, with no fake colours, no fake flavours, no preservatives and they only use ingredients you can feel good about eating.  Leaving out all the bad stuff like hydrogenated oils and MSG that give snacking a bad name.

I have been a fan of these chips for quite a long time, but have only ever eaten the "Original" ones.  So when the lovely people at Popchips sent me a box of their yummy snacks I did a little happy dance on the doorstep.  Instead of inhaling them right then and there, I packed them into the hamper and took them down to Dorset for a big family get together.  They were enjoyed by the whole family, both young and old and were munched on the beach while fossilling and scoffed in the evening with lashings of hummus, a thumbs up all round!  

If you want to get your hands on these yummy chips then check out your local major supermarket.
