For lunch today @jmgcreative and I headed over to Highcross, Leicester to try out the new Ed’s Easy Diner Restaurant. It was packed!! Always a good sign when trying somewhere new. It was over 25 years ago now since Ed’s first opened their doors in Soho and now they’ve decided to bring a little 1950s nostalgia to Leicester!

New Blog Post: Lucie Loves... #Beauty...
I was recently invited by the lovely people at Rituals, Highcross to go and try one of their 30 minute Pure Mineral Makeovers.
