Over the past year, I have come across some awesome small businesses. One of my favourites is the unusual but wonderful Geisha Wigs. I say unusual because people seem to have very negative views of wigs generally. Most people I spoke to about wigs seemed to think immediately of 80’s style mops of hair. This…
It’s rare a product comes up that get’s me so excited, and even rarer that it’s a household product. As a wife and Mum to a 2 year old, household products are just a must have and not considered ‘sexy’ in any way. Okay, so you’re probably all laughing at me now. ‘A ‘sexy’ household…
When I started blogging back in 2003, I used a site called My Opera. It was an app on my Nokia phone and at the time, I didn’t even know they were a browser. My blog became quite popular and I started to get more involved in the My Opera community and also the browser…
At the end of last year I was invited to a delightful event at London Zoo, run by Microsoft. It was a family event where they were showcasing some new educational apps for children. They had a number of tablets including a giant Lenovo Horizon, which my son absolutely loved! It’s amazing to see how…

Over 4 years ago, I used to smoke. Mainly when I was out socialising and having a drink, but I would still have a couple during the day when at work as well. Luckily for me, quitting wasn’t as difficult for me as it is for some people. Back then, I wasn’t aware of any…
We love a little style here at Girls n Gadgets HQ and especially when it comes in the form of a bag or wallet. Previous favourites of ours include Knomo and Toffee, however, we have a new favourite to add to the list… the very awesome jill-e Designs. Jill-e designs started as a photography bag…
So, we showcased some lovely phone cases from the likes of Ted Baker and Barbour the other week, but we have a little hidden treasure to share with you! The very trendy sounding Yoshie & Nico have some amazing iPhone cases in their range. We tried out one of their floral cases and I was…
