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…

My Six Favourite Fashion Tips*
Last week I was asked by Avenue 32 to share my style tips with my readers. Since I’m aiming to post at least one personal style post a week, I’ve decided I should maybe post on occassion about what makes up my own personal style. It’s very much my own brand of fashion rather than following the trends. Yes I admit that I am a subscriber to Elle, and I do love to read about the latest fashions and what’s “in” but rarely do I ever go out and buy anything to keep up with what is considered fashionable. I feel as I’m getting older, the need to be with…

Why My Cat is Helping My Insomnia
Last January I shared my experience with insomnia. A quick recap is that it’s something i’ve dealt with since I was thirteen and it usually raises it’s ugly head when i’m stressed or worried.. but sometimes it’s just there. I’ve always found it stressful in itself which usually gets me stuck in a loop of worried and stressed in case I can’t sleep results in being unable to sleep. It also seems to be more prominent at this time of year for reasons unknown and I do take medication for it, but sometimes it doesn’t help. And I have even tried more alternative methods to help me sleep, such as…
