Personal Style – I Woke Up Like This
It’s been a while since I shared an outfit post, and even longer since I shared a post of what I typically wear on a “mummy day” (as in a day when I am solely being a parent and running after my toddler all day). Since we’re now into the school holidays every day is basically a mummy day and I didn’t realise how difficult it was to entertain a child all day. I’ve come to rely on those 3 hours a day she’s at pre-school! I’m trying to do something every single day but we’re only to day 4 and already i’m struggling to keep up with her! I…

Trialling the Exante Diet & Toning Up Those Arms
So I’ve been trying to diet for like a month now, and I’ve been failing. It just seems to be everyone’s birthday or everyone suggests take away or I just want to eat my weight in chocolate. It’s like I’ve lost all my willpower despite knowing i’m off on holiday in 2 months and last time around I hated every single photo of myself. Well, I hated my arms. They just look huge in comparison to my body. Although I have bought dresses that cover my arms for this trip, I still want to loose a bit of weight and I have decided to do a bit of toning up..…

Packing for a Festival*
Ahh summer, the time of trips to the beach, beer gardens and sleeping in a tent in a muddy field that comes with attending a festival. Although I’m not attending one this year in prior years I have been an avid festival goer. I used to love nothing more than the thrill of live music. Now I have my daughter to consider and throwing that kind of money on a weekend in a field isn’t something I can afford to do but it really is one of my fondest memories of my early adult life. So I’ve put together a post about packing for a festival, the old school way…

Treacle Moon Iced Strawberry Dream Review
Treacle Moon and I have been good friends for about the last 4 years. When I lived with two of my friends our bathroom used to have a few different kinds of the bath & shower gel at a time because they were such good price, lasted forever and Tescos stocked them which was our nearest super market. They’re multiple use meaning they work great as bubble bath and as a shower gel. In recent years I’ve turned to Radox due to the fact being a parent is so stressful but when I was offered the chance to review one of the newer Treacle Moon bath and shower gels, I…

Five Favourite Stand Alone Books
So it’s been a while since I wrote about books. The truth is, I really haven’t been reading. Ever since I got my Netflix account all I do is watch stuff on that when I get into bed. I think it’s because at that time of night I just want to do something completely mind numbing. It’s one of the ways I’ve completely changed since becoming a parent. That and I read a lot to LM. But that doesn’t mean I don’t still adore books, because I do. I just tend to go back and read old ones as it’s not as taxing on my brain. Because of this I’ve…

Neal & Wolf Summer Solstice Gift Set Review
LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER AVAILABLE FROM SOURCE For well over two years now I have been a cheerleader for Neal & Wolf. Every since product I’ve ever tried has had me smitten. So obviously when I was offered a chance to review a new gift set, I was excited. Especially when it contained a new product, Control their flexible styling hairspray! The gift set in question is the Summer Solstice Trio* RRP £26, which contains not only Control, but Harmony the intensive care treatment (review here) and Ritual the daily cleansing shampoo (review here). The trio claims to “banish frizz this summer” something as always, I’m…
