    Adventuring in Louth

    February 21, 2014 /

    The past three days I’ve been lucky enough to be in the company of my best friend Bee and her family. As my mother works in a school, unless I’m ill or have something important to do, she rarely has Little Miss for me, and she never had her over night, except when she’s on holiday which has been for the last week. So on Wednesday I caught the train down the country at 8:10am to make sure I made the most of the time I had. I arrived just before lunchtime and spent my first day catching up as I hadn’t seen Bee since a few days before Christmas.…

    Guest Post // Outfit of the Day

    February 20, 2014 /

    Hello, I’m Kariss of Shy, Strange, and a little bit Manic,  I’ve been friends with Amy for years now (ever since a very drunken and rather embarrassing night out in our first year of university) and she has been kind enough to let me do a guest post on her blog!  She did a guest post on my blog last month about keeping alternative in the office, you can check that out here One thing I hate is winter (especially after christmas), I can not bare the cold!  It makes me miserable, messes up my skin and hair and it makes everything dark and grey!  It puts me off going out,…

    Outfit of the Day – Lucky Denver Mint

    February 18, 2014 /

    Wow, it’s really been ages since I did an outfit post, so much for my resolution to do them weekly! I put it down to the bad weather, having the flu and Little Miss being under the weather. But I’m back today with one. I wanted to share the beautiful French Connection dress I received that I plan to wear out to dinner when the girls come visit me the week before my birthday. The sun was out this morning when I took these photos and it made me feel so happy, like perhaps this dreadful weather wasn’t going to last forever and eventually we’ll have Spring. This dress really…

    A Wanderlust Wishlist – Where in the World?

    February 17, 2014 /

    Last year I won an absolute amazing competition with Travel Supermarket, it was their Holiday Postcards competition and the prize was £1000 in cash to go towards a dream holiday. If you haven’t seen my entry yet, you can read it here. It was an amazing prize to win, and I feel so blessed that I did.. however for the life of me I can’t decided where I want to go since there are so many places in the world I really want to visit and this is a once in a life time opportunity as my parents have agreed to take Little Miss for 10 days as she’s not…

    Neal and Wolf Ritual Daily Cleansing Shampoo & Conditioner Review

    February 16, 2014 /

    I took a night off from blogging last night as I just wanted to chill out, watch stuff on my iPad and eat Chinese take out. I feel no guilt in doing this once and a while especially when I’m as tired as I am at the moment. Who knew sleeping through the night was more exhausting than being awake all night?! I think it’s purely down to the fact Little Miss is so active these days that by the time I put her to bed at 7pm I’m ready to go to bed. I’ll hopefully feel different when the weather improves. Anyway, enough with my moany introduction, today I’m…

    A Single Girl’s Valentines – #3Dates3Mths

    February 14, 2014 /

    “Twenty something girl from the north, would like to meet a twenty something guy. Preferably with dark hair, eyes and a winning smile. Great sense of humour is necessary. Must be okay with the fact she sings badly to Disney and show tunes while doing the housework, bonus if he would try to join in. Must like nights in more than nights out, Chinese food, traveling and doing the washing up (because she doesn’t).“ After almost two years I finally feel ready to return to the world of dating. The scary world of dating that is and to help me with this I’ve agreed to take part in the #3Dates3Mnths…
