What Little Miss Wore to her Christmas Party
Today was Little Miss’ Christmas party at pre-school! She’s been so excited about it the last few days especially how they’ve been practising games and singing Christmas songs. As I mentioned in Blogmas Day 5, she’s really into Christmas this year. Yesterday she came home from pre-school with a folder with her handmade Christmas card in, a calendar, a tree decoration and a present from Santa Claus which was sweet. Then today of course she had her party which meant being there nearly the whole day as she attends a morning session and the party was held in the afternoon! She seems to have enjoyed herself and I just want…

Happy 3rd Birthday Cocktails in Teacups!
Today is my 3rd blog-versary, or blogging birthday, whichever one you prefer. Three years ago today I sat down and started this blog. I can’t believe I have kept at it for so long to be honest. It’s gone from a creative outlet when I felt alone and isolated after my break up to being my lively hood which was something I never expected for a second! I have had some fantastic chances to write for some big names because of it, and it by being a self employed freelance writer I’m able to be flexible when it comes to my daughter, which was something I wanted more than anything.…

Little Miss Cosplays, Part Three
Today I’m sharing another three of Little Miss’ Cosplays that she’ll be wearing to either Walt Disney World this month or Disneyland Paris next month. It’s getting harder and harder to pick just a few photos from each mini shoot, she seems to be getting more and more into it. Especially if there are props involved. I’d say so far, Alice and Belle have been her two favourite to photograph because of the vast array of props! I’m so glad I started photographing her outfits because I’ve been setting up play dates while we’re over there with Disney mum’s, so our kids will be coordinating! Plus, she’s growing like a…

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*…

Learning about Lending Works
We all have those times where we’re a little bit strapped for cash. Maybe you’ve been paid late, or an unexpected bill, or maybe you stupidly turned all your money into dollars a week before your holiday meaning you had nothing to live on for that week… Oh wait, that’s just me.. And this is where Lending Works come in to help, finding you a loan with a better rate than you would find if you went through a bank. Firstly a little background information. Lending Works was started in 2012 by Nicholas Harding and Matthew Powell, both of which come from a background in money. In 2015 the company…

LM’s Library Books, Week 2
Carrying on with our library visits as part of our summer bucketlist, last time LM convinced me into 9 books with a total of 10 stories (one book had 2 stories in, meaning two nights worth of reading). Plus I was away two nights meaning it’s been a while since our last trip to the library. Each book is stamped for a month and since we can take 15 books (I know, right?) I see no sense in going back until we’ve read all the ones we have at home. So we finally took another trip on Friday before we met Bee & her daughter’s off the train. So we…
