Great Holidays for Families with Small Children*
I think it’s a well known fact that I love going on holiday. Actually, not just holidays, I love to travel. We spend so much of our lives stuck in the same place, working more days than we have off, leaving so much of the country we live in unexplored, and even less of the world. For someone who has never had a high paying job, and is now a single mum, I do manage to get out and travel a lot, but I’d say this is down to some rigorous saving strategies. However, with a young child I do have to think carefully about where we’re going to go.…

Important Things I Still Need for Florida*
One week from today I’ll be freaking out because I’ll be able to say “I’m going back to Florida next month!” It still feels completely crazy and it hasn’t fully sunk yet since I only came back a few months ago, but there we have it. In case you missed it, I was lucky enough to be on the receiving end of someone “paying it forward” it’s literally like having a fairy godmother grant a wish. Over the past few months I’ve worked my butt off and between myself and my friends out there I’ve managed to secure our park tickets and I’m well on my way to sorting the…

10 Must Do Things at Magic Kingdom (5 Fast Pass, 5 Non Fast Pass)
With the weather being so nice this week it’s inevitable I’ve been thinking forward to our trip to Florida in September. Although we’re not far off the 60 day mark when we would normally be able to book of fast passes, due to staying off site this time we can’t book them until 30 days out. This doesn’t matter hugely as our friends we’ll be staying with and seeing are annual pass holders and they also only have the ability to book 30 days ahead. But of course this doesn’t stop me making lists what what I do and don’t want to see and do. You may remember my bucket…

Travel Beauty Heroes for a Summer Holiday
ALL LINKS REMOVED AS ITEMS ARE NO LONGER ON SALE When I was packing to go on holiday, in the back of my mind I was looking to take products that would have me looking my best with minimal effort. I wanted beach babe hair, with healthy looking skin and both protected from the sun. Of course, with it being a summer holiday, de-fuzzing is also a high priority. Nowadays with cameras built into our phones, there is always going to be photographic evidence of what you looked like while at your most relaxed. With the release of the Argan Oil range by Nair, #SkinbyNair is raising awareness of how…

Walt Disney World Bucket List for September 2015
You know when you have loads of posts to write but you just can’t decide what to write? That’s how I’ve been the last two days so instead I’ve cleaned. But today I’ve been up with LM since 7:30, I’m fully on top of all my housework so it’s time to sit down and blog. And because I still really don’t know what to write, I’m going to share with you a blog post I’ve had in the works for a few weeks, my bucket list for our holiday in September. When I first booked out trip for April I wanted to do as much as humanly possible in case…

My Favourite Purchases from Florida, April 2015
As I mentioned before heading out to Florida I had a bit of cash that was purely for spending. At the end of the day I didn’t end up having as much as I thought as food cost way more than I budgeted! But I still managed to pick up some gorgeous bits and I wanted to share my particular favourites with you all today. First up, my favourite purchase from The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is the wand I picked up. It’s from Ollivanders and is an Ivy wand. I like to believe that if I was in Harry Potter my wand would be Ivy with a unicorn…
