The Adventure Begins… Summer Travels Planning
I had something else I was going to blog about tonight but after doing something that some may consider stupid or crazy, I decided I wanted to blog about how I’m spending my Travel Supermarket prize money. Because tonight I spent half of it on flights. As some of you may remember, I’ve been umming and ahhing over what to use my £1000 prize money for that I won with my Holiday Postcards entry last summer. It’s been sat in my savings account since then and quite frankly I have been desperate to spend it. My mum agreed to have Little Miss for a total of nine days (seven days…

Wrappz Laptop Skin Review
I am full of cold, AGAIN. I know, right? As soon as Little Miss gets one, I get one. I guess we shouldn’t cuddle so much and I certainly should stop letting her kiss me when her nose is running! The joys of being a mother! Anyway, even though I feel like I have a million other posts to write, tonight I’m reviewing a product that arrived over the weekend and every time I look at it, I smile. Obviously, it’s because it’s Disney related! So the product in question is my Wrappz Laptop Skin, I was kindly sent for review purposes, and boy do I love it! Laptop Skin*…

Twenty Six
As some of you, or perhaps all of you, know that it was my birthday on Friday. For the last few years I’ve had fairly rubbishy birthday so this year when all my friends wanted to make plans with me I was so excited! My twenty fifth year was awful, the worst of my life, so being able to bid it farewell and hello to my new age in such a way was so nice. I ended up having four birthdays in total, or two birthday weekends. My two closest friends from university, Jess & Kariss came up from the 7th-9th and we went out for a meal on the…

Outfit of the Day – Birthday Girl
Twenty six years ago, at 3:17am weighing a tiny 5lbs 9.5oz and twelve days late, I was arrived. Today it’s my birthday and I’m not officially closer to thirty than to twenty which is a scary prospect. Compared to last year, 2014 is proving to be a more enjoyable year, and I really hope this continues now that i’m twenty six. I have been celebrating since last weekend when two of my best friends came to stay and we celebrated by hitting my hometown for drinks and the best steak of my life, but more on that next week. And yesterday my mum baked me a cake (see above) and…

Beauty Content // An Essential Beauty Guide for Yummy Mums *
Credit When you’re a mum, there are times when you struggle to remember what it was like to have time for yourself. Being busy with little ones, or even older children, can lead to a serious case of neglecting your own needs – particularly where beauty is concerned. But that doesn’t have to be the case; with a few sneaky tricks, you can be a very yummy mummy. Multitask When time is at a premium, you need to learn to work with it rather than against it. For example, a shortcut to beautiful hair is to apply a nourishing oil or a conditioner that can be soaking in and doing…

Cocktail Candle in Mojito Review
When asked by I Want One of Those if I wanted to review one of their Cocktail Candles, I was so incredibly excited. My blog is of course called Cocktails in Teacups, so I obviously do like to drink them (how stupid would it be if I didn’t?!) and I was even more excited to learn they had a mojito candle, which is actually my cocktail of choice. It arrived in a nice box, which of course instantly made me think how great a gift it would make (also so easy to wrap!) although I had it out in no time and it took pride of place on my fireplace.…
