A moment, please, for the brilliance of Diana Veras.

A curve model who’s made a name in the fashion industry with her glorious curls, curvy bod, and her ever-present ‘feminist’ necklace, Diana is used to putting up with nonsense comments from people who think they have the right to criticise her appearance.

People need to stop touching my hair whenever they feel like it

She’s not the norm in the fashion world, you see. So naturally, she’s going to come up against some backlash simply for being who she is and looking the way she looks.

We all desperately want to cover ourselves with the essence of President Donald Trump, right?

This woman's brightly coloured apartment is an Instagram dream come true

That seems to be the general consensus. That’s why you see people going through surgery to make their hands smaller, slathering themselves in fake tan, and styling their hair into a snazzy combover.

Trump is so popular, widely respected and loved that anything with his name or face on it is something people desperately want in their lives and on their bodies.

So it makes sense, then, that Beloved Shirts – the same people… Read the full story

Look, it’s very easy to end up dating someone who is absolutely, truly, bloody awful.

They mess you around. They tear your self-esteem to shreds. They have terrible opinions.

When you eventually break up, you look back and ask yourself why you ever dated them. You question how you ever thought they were right for you. You don’t understand how you missed all the signs of their general sh*t-ness.

Becoming a mother can shift the way you view your body more than you ever imagined.

Through pregnancy you grow and change, and have to learn to love your body even now it’s different.

People need to stop touching my hair whenever they feel like it

Then you become a mum, and are told your body needs to quickly go back to sculpted perfection. But if it snaps back too quickly, you’re branded selfish, putting your appearance before your baby.

You’re not allowed to wear certain things anymore, and you’re certainly not allowed to be sexy.

Pizza? Good. Bath bombs? Also good.

Study may shed some light on why men catcall women

While we’re not entirely enthused by the idea of a bath bomb scented like pizza (we do not want to bathe in cheese, thanks), we are entirely on board with a bath bomb designed to look like pizza, for no other reason but fun and joy.

Etsy brand recently unveiled a snazzy new pizza bath bomb, and showed it off brilliantly with a video lowering it into the tub.

You’re walking to work, planning what you’re going to have for lunch, when it happens: a man you don’t know yells ‘nice tits’ in your general direction.

It’s disarming. Threatening. It puts a real dampener on your day.

18 signs you're having sex with a decent person

There’s no way you’d show any interest in someone catcalling you, and the man doing it must be aware of that. So why do they do it? Why are there still so many men who think it’s okay to harass women in the street?

We all love a fancy wall or door in front of which we can take an Instagram.

Seriously. We spot one person’s excellent full-length shot in front of a nice lavender door and we immediately want to send them a message asking them the exact location of said door so we can put on a fancy outfit and replicate that photo, sharpish.

So it’s understandable that an art project that’s turned some houses bright pink (not millennial pink, sadly, but this looks much better in photos) would draw the crowds.

We know that people in London are having the most sex in the UK (according to one study, anyway. Not to personal experience), but remember: it’s not quantity that’s important, it’s quality.

Really, knowing how often people have sex isn’t that crucial. Knowing how often they’re having good sex is a much better indication of whether you should pack your things and move to a new, sexier city.

The simple pleasures of good food, quality booze and a moment’s peace usually do nicely, thanks very much.

I love sunny-day parenting because you’re all at work and I’m not

Us Brits have a very unique way of throwing a picnic. 

When people think of picnics they think of sunshine, cute checked blankets and a hamper bursting full of sandwiches, coleslaw, potato salad, and cold drinks.

However, for anyone who has been lucky enough to participate in a British picnic it doesn’t always quite go to plan.

Instead it is an experience filled with fearful weather watching, volatile wasps and a severe shortage of crisps.

Being fatherless at any time can be tough. But it is interesting how a commercially-driven calendar event can hammer home feelings that can otherwise remain under the surface. 

This will be my sixth Father’s Day since my dad’s death. Sadly I have a couple of friends who for them this will be the first since losing their own father. As with all aspects of grief everyone deals with things in their own way and at different times, but these calendar days are often impossible to get away from.

Kids aren’t known for being very tactful.

Whether it’s commenting on your drinking in front of your neighbours calling you out on your slovenly clothing choices, they have very few feelings filters. But they’re only parroting what they’ve learnt is acceptable – be that from the TV, school or overhearing adult conversations.
