About Domestic Sluttery



Domestic Sluttery: The home and lifestyle blog for women who have better things to do.

The Domestic Sluts like the finer things in life. We want our homes to look good, we want tasty food and we want to wear fabulous things. But we're busy. And sometimes, we enjoy being a little bit lazy. We'd much rather go out dancing than stay in tidying up. Frankly, a five course meal sounds like far too much effort and our idea of 'decorating' is to hide a spaghetti stain on the sofa with a nice cushion.

We basically want to cheat our way to the good stuff.

We're a UK-based blog, with writers across the country (all with their own tastes and opinions). We're not a feminist blog, and we don't for a minute think that cupcakes can save the world. But cake does taste nice. We want Domestic Sluttery to inspire our readers to try something new, whether that's discovering an independent designer, or making a new cocktail.

The good stuff really doesn't have to be difficult.

Email us about all things Sluttery! (No need to email us at more than one email address - we read them all!)

Disclosure: The Domestic Sluts are never paid for their opinions. But sometimes we receive products to review, or get invited to events and cool things that we don't pay for. We'll always disclose this and our reviews will always be honest.

Instead we add to our cocktail fund by running the shiny adverts you see, and by affiliate links to products in some of our content. We do recommend those to you - we'd never send you to something we didn't think was fabulous.

Introducing the Domestic Sluts...


Sian Meades - Founding Editor
Founder and editor of Domestic Sluttery, Sian Meades is a freelance writer, web editor and social media trouble maker. Her house looks like a vintage curiousity shop. She also writes the dress blog A Change of a Dress.

She loves these things: Cakes, giraffes, tea and daisies. She does not love these things: Dolls house furniture, mint chocolate or cheap shoes.

Frances - Project Manager
By day Frances Ambler is an editor of pretty books on art and design which neatly sums up her interests in all things arty, bookish and pretty. She contributes daily to Retro To Go and occasionally to Queens of Vintage. Having grown up in a northern seaside town, she retains her fondness for fish and chips, crazy golf and stripy sailor tops. She thinks coca-cola is the tooth-rotting drink of the devil.

When Laura isn't tinkering with the shiny adverts on Domestic Sluttery and writing about wine, she's a freelance writer, blogger and wine adviser who is invariably wearing stupidly bright lipstick. She hearts teapots, vintage curiosities, well-thumbed paperbacks, and things that taste of lemon. She hates aniseed, digital clocks and Mr. Bean, in that order.

Contact Laura about advertising on Domestic Sluttery.



Alex is a freelance writer, blogger and food-a-holic who loves polka dots, flamingos and maths. When not being caught red-handed taking photos in restaurants, inflicting huge cakes on her workmates or trawling the streets of London for the next great curry house, she can often be found chortling over cute baby animals.

Sara Vali earns a living writing leaflets for older people so they don't freeze or fall over, and spends her evenings making sweary cross-stitch cards. She has a deep and abiding love for south London, twee pop, carbohydrates, and the top tips page in Chat magazine.

Kat
Kat is a freelance writer/editor and full-time musicals obsessive. When not having Defying Gravity diva-offs at Lucky Voice, she works at The Times and reviews bars for The Sunday Times’s Style website. At 6’1, she’s also the tallest Slut, and is therefore on a constant hunt for tops and coats that don’t end three inches from her wrist.

Sel
Sel spends most of her time looking after two children, a cat and a drummer whilst sailing perilously close to essay deadlines as she does her degree. You can find her elsewhere on the internet looking at pretty shoes for Never Enough Shoes and watching all the best bad TV for Shouting At Cows. She is a firm believer in the rule that it is always 5 o'clock somewhere and that tea tastes better from a pot and with cake.

Carrie
Carrie is a freelance writer and editor who lives on the cliffs of Brighton with her photography-obsessed lover and their two children. When she's not busy having a love affair with her iMac and running DIGITAL bungalow, she's flouncing about her kitchen. Carrie is s more than a little in love with modern-day Mickey Rourke. Weirdo.

Elizabeth
Elizabeth is a blogger, thrifter, amateur photographer and social media enthusiast. She is often found rummaging through Car Boot Sales and Charity shops and has an unhealthy love for bacon, chocolate and garlic bread and is sure that all three would taste great together.
