Appleyard London Harmony Bouquet Review
With my eternal singledom continuing it’s very rare that I have a beautiful bouquet of flowers in my house, despite completely adoring them. Occassionally I’ll buy a small bunch for a couple of pound at the supermarket to cheer myself up on a bad day, but there is truly nothing better than a big bunch you didn’t buy yourself landing on your doorstep. That’s what happened to me last week as I was offered the chance to review a signature bunch by the flower delivery company, Appleyard London. How exciting! The bunch I received is called Harmony* RRP £46, a beautiful bouquet made up of white freesia, memory lane lilac…

How Much Does it Really Cost to Attend a Wedding?*
Don’t you just love when you can get everything you need outfit wise for an occassion from one shop? Especially an online shop that so regularly has great discounts such as 20% off and great sales. Yep, you must have guessed i’m talking about ASOS. When I needed something for a special occassion this summer I head straight there to put together an outfit that wouldn’t break the bank. With the help of a great sale that seemed to last all summer, I actually felt good for once when I was going out. Dark Floral Hair Garland* RRP £12 Mini Moon Necklace* RRP £6 Crepe Crop Skater Dress in Strawberry*…

Mummy & Daughter Shoes for Florida
Last year when I went touring around the North East Coast of the US, I royally messed up my feet. I mean blisters on my blister and to be honest, a year on, they still haven’t recovered. It was all due to wearing “fashion” sandals and walking miles. I swore to myself that I would never make that mistake again and invest in some good pairs of shoes for any holidays that required me to be on feet for long periods of time. When I headed off to Florida in April I’d bought 3 pairs of flat t-bars that although they never caused me any blisters, the fact they were…

Printed Memories with Snapfish
Since we’re now off to Florida in 20 days (EEK!) I figured I should probably get the photos from our last trip printed out so I could share with the family who aren’t on Facebook. It took a long time to narrow down the prints from well over a thousand to the 400 that would fit in the two albums I bought from an outlet mall over there ($9.99 each!) While I was going through the process of picking out the photos I wanted printed and editing them, I did become rather tearful at all the wonderful memories we made and we’re going to be making again next month. Our…

Regenerate Enamel Science – First Impressions
I’m just going to all out say it, I’m afraid of the dentist. Not just afraid, but petrified. I had a really bad experience as a child and teen (and it’s not surprising since my Orthodontist has actually been struck off for making some terrible mistakes as far as his patience have been concerned.) I have large teeth and a tiny mouth, which of course lead to some crazy problems, that’s treatment has left me mentally scarred. But I won’t lie, I would love a movie star smile.. But who wouldn’t? Although I did have braces, they weren’t put on properly or for long enough leaving my teeth still pretty…

Where Amy Ate – NYC Bar & Grill, Bawtry
Although my main reason for a child free weekend at Bee‘s was to go to SFCC when she posted about visiting NYC Bar & Grill last week I really wanted to go! With it’s New York theming, fantastic burgers and delicious looking cocktails Bee didn’t take any convincing into a girls dinner on the Friday I was there. It has been YEARS since the two of us went out for dinner together just the two of us, I think the last time was probably when we went to London together when I was 20! Nowadays we always have at least one or all three of our kids, or sometimes Bee’s…
