It’s hard to admit when things aren’t working out. When they don’t go the way you had planned and hoped. You set sail on your new adventure. Friends and family waved you off and wished you well. You were excited and full of optimism, heading off into

Kicking off a new mini series sharing some of my favourite places to eat Mexican food in Dublin, of which there are many (though not as many as I'd like 😉 ). First on the list is Mero Mero, which you can find every Saturday at Temple Bar's

How fun are these? Adam Koszary, who worked at Bodleian Libraries, the University of Oxford’s research libraries, spent a year turning beautiful images painstakingly made by monks and illustrators hundreds of years ago into fun, tongue-in-cheek GIFs to brighten up our feeds.

Three little faces that never fail to make me happy: Ethan, Noah and Isabel. Ethan and Noah are currently obsessed with Pokemon, dabbing and Minecraft. Isabel meanwhile has a passing interest in Pokemon but is far more obsessed with a Russian nesting doll I had in my study. We came

Late in November, Ben and I packed up the Mini and drove to Tipperary to spend a day photographing and filming Brookfield Farm for the January-February issue of Image Interiors & Living. Run by Ailbhe Gerrard, Brookfield consists of 72 acres of meadows, crops and native trees. It produces delicious

It was a weekend of small, memorable pleasures. Home-made tacos and a Colin the Caterpillar cake for my sister's birthday. A trip to the park with my niece. A walk on Killiney beach, where these pics (and gif) were taken. It was bright and beautiful and you could

I'm a bit worried Ben might kick me out of the house if I stick this on repeat again... But it's so good to have The xx back. PS If you haven't gotten stuck into already, their In The Studio playlist is pretty great

New Muji pens have been bought. A walking route has been mapped out. There's a fresh Moleskine ready to go. Today, I join the Intercom team, and typing that alone makes me grin with excitement. Intercom is a company I have long admired. When a role on their
