For The First Time in Forever, I’m Getting What I’m Dreaming Of
Well there was always going to be a Frozen outfit SOMEWHERE, right? In fact, I have two Frozen patterned dresses, and one Anna coronation inspired dress to take on holiday with me, so technically that makes this one the first of three. This is also the first of my handmade dresses. I bought this one last summer before I’d even decided I wanted all Disney inspired outfits to take on holiday. I saw it on a lovely lady called Lisa’s Instagram selling page and I knew I just had to have it. Not only is it one of the very rare Disney pieces she’s ever made but the cut is…

Five Underrated Disney Movies I Love
So, there are 54 Disney Classic movies, with 53 of them available on DVD (I also want to add in here I now own all 53, including some sequels) Number 54 is of course Big Hero 6 and it hasn’t been released in UK cinema’s yet. Out of all 54 of these, there are only about half that have authentic merchandise available to buy because these are considered the “popular” movies. I’m not going to deny that some of them are also some my favourite, such as Frozen, Tangled, Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, The Little Mermaid & Beauty and the Beast. In fact, I love all the Princess movies.…

Outfit of the Day – I Want Adventure in the Great Wide Somewhere
Onto my third outfit post of 2015. I really hope I can keep these up as they’re really helping with my rubbish self esteem. I also can’t believe that we’re into the third week of the year already, doing a weekly series definitely makes you realise how fast time actually goes. It’ll be April before I know it! Anyway, today’s personal style post features possibly my favourite Hot Topic dress. When I was in my teenage years, out of all the Disney princesses I definitely most identified with Belle. I felt like an outsider in my town, even in my only family. I liked books and good food and wine,…

2015; The Resolutions
So, I’m 12 days late to this party too but better late than never, right? Like most other people, with the turn of the year I made some resolutions. Normally I don’t really go in for the whole new year, new you stuff, but this year I was a lot more on board. 2014 was on the whole a good year (with a rubbish tail end) and I want to continue with the good stuff into this year. As Little Miss gets older I want to continue making a better and happier life for us, which means re-evaluating our situation now and then. And what better time to do…

Personal Style – Now I’m Here, Blinking in the Starlight
Week two of showcasing my holiday wardrobe (styled for winter though since it’s freezing cold and crazy windy) and I’m managing to keep up. My trouble with trying to do outfit posts is the time. Firstly it has to be in the morning because a) my hair and make up don’t look like i’ve been dragged through a hedge and b) the light in the kitchen. Then obviously Little Miss needs to be occupied. If she’s having a relatively moany morning I can’t very well spending time in the kitchen with the door shut, I have to be present and ready to play. Thankfully this morning she was happy playing…
