The Perfectly Honest Single Parent Post
Hi my name is Amy and I’m a single mother. I have a two year old daughter from a previous (domestic abusive) relationship and she has nothing to do with her father. I am not just a single mother, I’m a sole parent. I make all the decisions in regards to how my child is raised and I also am the only person who sets rules and boundaries. My daughter attends nursery five hours a week. Aside from that, she is with me. In the blogging world it appears to be frowned upon to admit your child is anything less than perfect. Like with everything in life as far as…

Disney Cosplay – Ariel, The Little Mermaid
As you saw in my London Film and Comicon post from a few days ago on the Saturday along with Bee, her partner Chris, her brother Chris and his girlfriend Erika, we dabbled in the world of cosplay.. and I don’t know about them, but I definitely caught the bug! Although I do put this down the fact I am slightly in love with my dress. If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you’ll know that for a long time I’ve wanted to cosplay Ariel from The Little Mermaid, in particularly the blue dress that she wears when Eric is showing her around the kingdom. So when deciding…

Summer Recipes with Baking Mad
The other week I was sent a hamper of goodies c/o Baking Mad which was actually perfect timing as it was my sister’s birthday the following week. I am the chief cake baker in the family and I always try to do something different for each birthday. My dad had chocolate and salted caramel, my mum had sponge and fresh berries and for my sister, since her birthday is in July, I’d planned on making her an ice cream themed cake! I don’t have a recipe to share with you all since to achieve my ice cream masterpiece I actually mashed together quite a few recipes from Baking Mad’s summer…

Glasses Direct Prescription Lense Sunglasses Review
Scout Marilyn in Black/Purple* £75, Glasses Direct These gorgeous sunglasses from Glasses Direct have already made their debut last week on the blog in my first outdoor outfit of the day post! But they definitely need a post of their own, especially since they’re another of my new favourite accessory for summer, prescription lense sunglasses! I honestly don’t know how I survived previous summers without them, as now my Primark sunnies are discarded in the drawer! I probably won’t ever use them again! So anyway, a little more about the sunglasses themselves. They’re by a designer called Scout which I have heard of before as my mum has a…

Outfit of the Day – We’re Not In Kansas Anymore
Hello! This is my second outfit post that I felt brave enough to shoot outside. However this time I cheated a little and did it around my mum’s house rather than in some public place. There is of course a half decent reason for this, as in I only get to shoot them when Little Miss is in nursery on a Tuesday and Wednesday. I never want to stray too far as I like to be prompt in picking her up. Not that she’s ever looking for me! I took these during my blog-cation last week and I’m pretty pleased with how they’ve come out. Lotta Rosie Hairband…
