Eleanor Pendleton is intimidatingly beautiful, insanely cool and just to top it off, she’s really, really, lovely. She is the brainchild behind the beauty site and online magazine grittypretty.com and has build a cult following amongst beauty lovers. The site is dedicated to all things make up, skin care and hair. It’s a stunning site – make sure you check it out.

Elle and I have has similar upbringings in terms of being raised in smaller towns by stay at home mum’s and stable families, but as we know, not everything is always smooth sailing in life. That’s what makes it beautiful. Elle shares her story on her rise to the top and the sacrifices she has had to make along the way to get there.

I could not have been more excited when voeu Skincare told me they were working on a Naturals range! Even though I love the core range and use it daily, I was interested in trying out something that used naturally derived ingredients.

In this episode of Tea with Jules, I sit down with beautiful fashion and beauty blogger Sara Donaldson from harperandharley.com . I am personally guilty of scrolling through her blog to find fashion inspiration from her pallet of black, white, grey (and the occasional neutral, khaki or navy for good measure!). If it’s beautiful images, amazing fashion and great ideas you are after – Sara is your girl.

We chat about Sara’s journey to becoming one of the world’s most influential bloggers and how she holds her own as a woman in business.

Sara is sweet, funny and super stylish. You’ll love her story and how she tells it!

With winter looming, it’s a good time to start thinking of ways we can update our wardrobe and inject some winter warmth into what we already own.  It’s all about choosing new pieces that will work with what we already have, rather than buying whole new looks head to toe.  Adding one current winter trend to our look is an easy way to refresh, edit and prepare for the cooler months.

Here’s the good news, thanks to Vicinity Centres we can shop some of winter’s finest fashion all under one roof.  I’ve made an edit of some essentials for the cooler season which you can purchase in store now, visit vicinty.com.au to find your nearest centre. Happy shopping!

Last night saw the launch of my brand new venture, Tea With Jules. The concept behind it is to sit down with inspirational people and let them tell their stories of triumph, challenges, road blocks and achievements.

Within my own friendship circle, I am kind of known for my home being a place to come to for a cup of tea and chat on the couch.
