I always retain 100% editorial control of everything that is published on this site.

Older posts may have been disclosed in the following ways:-

Collaborative Post:- I  have been paid (either in cash or kind) to write about this brand. All thoughts, words and opinions will always be our own. 

Guest Post:- A post that has been written by another blogger/influencer

Review Post:- We have been sent an item at no cost to ourselves in return for an honest review.

Blogger Event/ Press Performance: Sometimes I am invited to a special blogger preview/event and asked to write about my experience. We are usually offered a complimentary experience and the staff usually know we are bloggers so please take this into account. I've been in this game a long time and will always provide and honest review of our experiences. 

Affliliate Links: - If you click through an affiliate link and then go on to purchase an item from that website, I will receive a small percentage of the sale at no additional cost to yourself.

I value my readers and the trust I have built up. The fact that an item/post has been gifted or paid for will not influence my words or opinion. I only accept items that fit in with the nature of our blog.
