    Little Miss Cosplays – New at Closet Geek

    March 4, 2017 /

    Goodness it’s been forever since our last edition of Little Miss Cosplays but a lot of that has been to do with the lighting in my lounge and the fact I felt disillusioned with photography for a while. But since setting myself a challenge of improving my photography skills in 2017 I’ve dug it out and dusted it off, ready to practice my portraits again. And what better way to practice than to take some photos of the fantastic dresses Bee has been working on for Closet Geek? Peter Pan Inspired Dress* RRP £25 We all know how much Little Miss loves Peter Pan so I think this Peter Pan…

    Looking Back on February 2017

    March 1, 2017 /

    February has been a strange month, looking back now I don’t really even remember most of it, that’s how little happened during it. Little Miss started Drama classes the first weekend of the month. Then there was obviously Valentines Day which I didn’t really celebrate and Little Miss had half term, which is all I can really remember of the month. During half term we had a few afternoons out, we went away to Newcastle for the day and we went to see the Lego Batman Movie. I’ve been really under the weather with something I just can’t put my finger on and this caused some serious anxiety issues. I…

    Beauty Content // Beauty Tricks To Take To Bed With You*

    February 28, 2017 /

    One of the hardest things to stick to as a busy woman is routine. Routine dictates so much of our time at work and with the family, that personal routines can be the one thing we rebel against. It’s not that we don’t want to stick to braiding our hair before bed, it’s just that skipping a couple of things means longer sleep. Your beauty routine should be a habit and if it isn’t it’s time to make it one. Getting ready for bed is the time of day we unwind and relax, ready for a full night’s sleep for the grind the next day. But, did you know that…

    New Mum? You Must Be Tired!*

    February 27, 2017 /

    Being mum to a newborn is exciting. You’ve waited nine months to hold your little love in your arms, and now they’re here! There’s no denying that having a new baby is amazing. But, it can also cause a lot of stress. Not only is your body recovering, but you have new life on your shoulders! That’s overwhelming enough. Add sleep deprivation, and you’ve got new motherhood!

    Over one third of over 55’s in the UK are looking to downsize. As well as retiree’s, plenty of other people will be sticking to smaller homes or looking to downsize as well.

    Doing Disneyland Paris on a Budget Part 1 – Transport, Accommodation & Tickets

    February 24, 2017 /

    Almost two years ago I did a post about doing Walt Disney World and Orlando on a budget. Although I have been lucky enough to do Florida 4 times in less than two years, I won’t be back this year no matter how much I budget. Instead we’re settling on multiple trips to Disneyland Paris and a few trips to London, all this roughly comes to the price of our very first trip to Florida back in April 2015. In the past two years prices have increased due to the unstable economy and just general inflation making it harder for me to afford it as a single parent without giving…
