Sasha Shantel X Slimfast

I’ve been really focused on building partnerships with reputable brands over the last few months. SashaShantel.com is more than my blog, it is something I see myself growing and developing for the rest of my life and it is a visual representation of all the lifestyle choices; the products; that I use in my day to day life. Being truly authentic is really important to me and as much as quantity is a very vital aspect of content creation. At present; I am more concerned with the quality of my output.

An evening of Luxury Living with The Flaneur

I am totally under no illusions that this type of living is the norm for millions of people. I for one know exactly what it’s like to dine in 5 star restaurants and to hang out in hotels and spas that many would dream of. (Not bad for a woman from Peckham!) However, since I ended my magazine in 2018, and the pandemic dropped kicked me to the ground in 2020 (like it did for so many people!) I haven’t really dined out anywhere special. I haven’t surrounded myself with opulence and I haven’t been treated to anything special either.

Celebrating Another Year – Afternoon Tea at Ambassadors Bloomsbury Hotel

was going to name this post “Levelling Up” as this is what always comes to mind when I go to afternoon tea. I love the feeling it brings and it reminds me of why I keep pushing and working on this blog and my other ventures. What it would be like to go to afternoon tea whenever I wanted and to review various swanky hotels and seeing what they have to offer. I am blessed with the fact that I ran my own online magazine for 8 years which afforded me the luxury of reviewing ALOT of different afternoon tea venues. Yet, that was then and this is now and I really want to take sashashantel.com to next level and to review more venues like these.

#GetCooking | Vegan ‘Quiche’

*Guest post

This is a staple in our house. It’s very tasty straight from the oven and works fab cold in a picnic with some pickle.

By all means make your own pastry, but there are very good vegan pre-made shortcrusts in every supermarket.
