#THEBOSSGIRL - Budgets And Finances

It's time to talk finances.

I'm someone that is pretty open to talking about my financial situation but haven't been that good at controlling it until this year. I've got quite a lot of debt and now have to seriously budget, but knowing what's going on in my bank account has help…

Flavourful Food at Cabana

I am a lover of flavourful food, most of what I cook at home turns out pretty bland from night to night so it's nice to go out and eat something special. I was invited down to Cabana in West Quay for the cocktail making and food tasting (Read the post here) but didn't get time to try the fo…

The New Kid On The Dock

Over the last couple of years there's been a rise in independent cafe's opening in Southampton and I couldn't be happier. There's some kid of therapy attached to sitting in somewhere with a bit more character, a place that really means something to it's owner and takes pride in …

#THEBOSSGIRL - Day In The Life Of A Marketing Director

So the term 'Marketing Manager' is thrown around a lot, with different words added onto 'marketing' to make it sound fancy or try and sell something in a different way. I consider myself a 'Digital Stylist'. A term I came up with in uni for my agency, as I felt it incorporat…

Down On The Quay ...

In the midst of all of my reviews, there are still some hidden gems that I haven't tried. Shamrock Quay is a little more out of the way that you'd think, but is home to a restaurant with a 2015 No.1 Trip Advisor award and more recently the AA Hospitality Rosette Award. Quite a place huh?

Dermalogica Skincare - #MyFaceMyStory

I haven't ever had horrific skin, but I was also never blessed with completely clear skin. What I eat and drink really does make a huge difference to how my skin reacts and the skin care plays a huge part. I never had a proper skin routine, nor did I know much about my face so with the help of …

#THEBOSSGIRL - Internships - Fashion, PR, Beauty and Marketing

Everyone has different opinions on internships and frankly there's not one that fits all. It depends what industry you want to work in and how much knowledge you already have, but I know for a fact that some of the ways I work have been moulded by what I did for other people and my business wou…

The Sign Said YES - Gatehouse Grill

The big building down by the Mayflower park (dubbed by me as the castle) is one of the grandest and prettiest buildings in the city. Home to Kuti's Thai Pier restaurant since 2008, this restaurant really makes you feel like you've had luxury and that's probably because you have. The gra…

Classic Timepieces In Shades Of Brown

Investment pieces are something I thrive on. I would rather buy one thing and have it last a few years, than have to keep buying other less impressive pieces. When it comes to watches, this is definitely the case. I only have 4, one from my mum, one that's my pride and joy, one that is just for…
