Primark & Beauty Haul September 2014
It’s very rare I ever do a haul post, mainly because it’s very rare I ever have a haul short of being on holiday (and even then when I went to DLP I still didn’t warrant a haul for the four items I bought!) However, due to the fact I really needed some more autumn-y clothes and that I’ve put aside some cash knowing I had this trip coming up I did manage to get my haul on yesterday while in Sunderland for the day. Sunderland is never somewhere I have ever shopped before, but due to the fact I had tickets to see The Lion King at the theatre…

Five Favourite Lip Colours for Autumn
LINKS REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER FOR SALE Today is the first day it’s really felt like Autumn to me. I woke to thick fog that never lifted all day it made the house feel dark. There was also a definite chill in the air and it felt like I’d barely had my curtains open. My mother came breezing in at dinner time to tell me it was going to warm up again but to me, Autumn is officially here. The evenings are cold and we have blankets on our bed, not to mention you can get Pumpkin Spiced Lattes in Starbucks again (i’ll be having my first on Saturday!)…

Outfit of the Day – Hey Mama Welcome to the Sixties
JD Williams kindly got in touch and asked me to take part in their Classic or Contemporary campaign. They gave me the chance to pick a couple of items from their website that are a style from another decade that have recently come back into fashion. My first thought was the 20s, 40s or 50s as that’s the style of clothing I usually go for in my day to day however as soon as I saw the collar on the swing dress, I knew it was the one and that my outfit would be 60s inspired. Although fashion wise I’m definitely drawn mainly to the 20s and 50s, I am…

Puddle Pug by Kim Norman Review
It’s very rare that I ever get asked to review something for Little Miss since I’m not exclusively a parenting blogger & I don’t share a million photos of my beautiful child. So when the chance came along to review a new book for children, this wasn’t an opportunity I was going to turn down. “Percy the Pug loves puddles: big puddles, small puddles, swamp puddles, stomp puddles. But no puddle is perfect, until he finds one with three friendly piglets. But protective Mama Pig says NO PUGS and chases Percy away! Irresistibly illustrated by Keika Yamaguchi, Kim Norman’s tale about a persistent pug and his pursuit of friendship in…

The Glitterati with Crown & Glory September 2014
Earlier on in the week, I received this months Glitterati Box from Crown & Glory. The little “secret” Facebook group had been a buzz with excitement and from the 2nd on we’ve all been sharing the contents of our boxes. I’d like to add a note in here that the girls on the group are all LOVELY, so supportive and it’s a great way to swap for pieces that you feel will suit you more, which is important because these are blind boxes. Last month I swapped my small purple Not A Lotta Rosie for a Whole Lotta Rosie in mint which is much more my style. However, this month…
