Two vegans go to Brighton…

At the beginning of this year, we decided to take on the challenge of Veganuary. I was approaching one year of being vegetarian and my partner was considering cutting out meat, so he suggested we gave it a go. We didn't look back. All the amazing food we tried was like opening a door to …

Finding joy during a global pandemic

When the threat of coronavirus took hold in the UK, it felt very much like a storm that would come quickly and be forgotten just as fast. (I remember joking as I left my office back in March, keyboard and laptop bag in tow, that we'd probably not be back for the rest of the …

Introducing BIZZY Oxford

Recently, I asked someone for advice about progression, development and life as a woman in the workplace. One of the many useful tips she gave me included the importance of networking and supporting other women - not seeing women as a threat, but lifting each other up. I was immediately struck with an idea to …

Eating at Atomic Burger, Oxford πŸ”

Last month, we went to see Peace at the O2 Academy in Oxford. I don’t know if I’m just old (in my mind) or too lazy to stand for long, but I wasn’t really bothered about seeing the support act, so we took the opportunity to grab a bite to eat on Cowley Road before …

Hidden Treasures: The Oxfam Superstore

I've always been a lover of charity shops - mostly for "vintage" clothing and books that have that good old library smell. I've bagged a few of my style staples over the years - simple cardigans or shirts that have long outlasted what has more recently been dubbed 'fast fashion' - and I've even bought …

My August Reads πŸ“š

I remember when I was a teenager, I could get through a book in a day. I'd stay up until 3 in the morning, despite having to drag myself to school the next day, because I simply couldn't put the book down. I remained the same way until somewhere between university and working life - …

What’s new in The Life of Lilly?

This month marks three years of blogging on The Life of Lilly. It sounds super weird to say, but I feel like this blog has become like a close friend. I've been able to share thoughts and feelings on here about quite deeply personal issues and I never thought that, in this blog, I would …

Dinner at Thaikhun, Oxford

I took a little 'girls night' trip to the centre of Oxford last week and one of my friends suggested we went to Thaikhun, located on George Street. I've walked past this place a hundred times and always said I'd love to go in and give it a try, but it took up until now …

Can Couch to 5k make me a faster runner?

I recently decided that I am going to complete the Couch to 5k running programme, recommended and built by the the NHS. Everyone I've told about this has been a bit confused, as I'm far from a 'beginner' runner (did I mention I ran a marathon last year? I'm still using that fact to impress …
