5 Things to Think About When Planning a Dream Wedding*
Last year I was lucky enough to be part of one of my best friend’s big day. I was a bridesmaid for the first time ever (at 30!) and it really gave me an insight into what goes on when planning a wedding. If you’re someone in the throws of planning, or you have planned one in the past, you’ll know exactly what I mean! You’re paying all this money, you want your day to go smoothly and be exactly how you pictured it. A lot of people have an idea of the wedding of their dreams from a very young age, but the logistics of orchestrating it are not…

My Must Haves for Working at Home*
Looking back over my life I can’t say I have ever been someone who ever wanted to work from home or be self employed.. but since becoming a mother and a single mother no less, it became something that had to happen for me to feel happy in my work/parenting balance. I’m not cut out for working in a school so that went out the window, and my mum isn’t available enough to have Little Miss during school holidays. Once my maternity leave ended I did go back out to work, but it just didn’t work out. After earning some certificates and going back into education for a year and…

5 Reasons Why The “Home Team” Is Important*
I consider myself to be very lucky in that I come from a large, close knit family. Not particularly my immediate family which currently stands at six, my parents, my sister, my nephew, myself and my daughter, but our extended family.

Although like all families, there have been ups and downs, fallings out and blow ups over the years, on the whole, we all keep up to date on each other…

I didn’t get my first (and currently only) tattoo until I was 27. Despite my intense fear of needles, I had wanted one for years, however I just didn’t know what to get. Eventually I decided and I’ve never looked back. I love what it is and it’s placement but that’s not always the same for everyone. A lot of people get tattoos only for a few years down the line, decide they don’t want them any more, thankfully there are places that are able to help out with this. Credit So what are some reasons people might consider getting their tattoo covered up or removed completely; It Doesn’t Look…

Things I’m Looking Forward to in Autumn*
Autumn has become the favourite season among bloggers, and I’m not different, mainly because it sees the end of the season of hayfever! Spring is my absolute favourite season, but I do love when the first of September hits as that’s when I consider Autumn to be beginning. Enjoyment wise, I’d say Autumn is my favourite because there is just so much I look forward towards the end of the year and since I’m about to spend 11 days of my Autumn in 80 degrees heat I’ve decided to share what I’m most looking forward to about Autumn in this country. Pumpkin Spice Everything Yes, I am one of those…

Life After a PCOS Diagnosis*
It’s funny how you look at people and unless you really know them, you don’t know what is actually going on in their lives. And sometimes even if you know someone, you don’t know everything. This is a bit like me and PCOS. Mainly because I’m still struggling to come to terms with it, but also because I don’t like people pitying me. Nature’s Best looks at Polycystic Overy Syndrom, PCOS for short, and it’s a condition that affects how the ovaries work. And I’ve found out over the last year, it’s fairly common. Most women are diagnosed in their teens or early twenties but I didn’t have any serious…
