Looking Back on June 2016
Okay, so June wasn’t as much fun as May, but I did manage to not get dumped which is a success in itself and my boyfriend spent a total of 20 days at my house as well as me spending a further 3 days at his. We don’t get to spend as much time together in July sadly as I have a friend coming to stay for a week but I will be at his for two weekends out of the 5 that July has. It’s his birthday on the 30th and I’m looking forward to seeing him for that. Anyway, I’m on a tangent. I was supposed to spend…

LM’s Fav Christmas Books
In our house we don’t have Christmas books & DVDs available all year around, they get packed away with the Christmas tree meaning that when I put the tree up LM is able to get them out. This stops me getting too annoyed when I have to read or watch them over and over again during the Christmas period. Every year I add a few more of each to our collection. Ever since our tree went up I’ve been reading one book/story (as some of our books have multiple stories in) a night to LM at bedtime so last night I asked her to pick her favourites and give me…

Athleisure: Getting The Sports-Luxe Look*
I always swore when I became a parent I wouldn’t change my fashion ways. I’d stick to my tulle skirts, peter pan collars and lace, and don’t get me wrong, I did.. until the school run began. Now when I drag my butt out of bed at 7:30 and leave the house by 8:30, getting myself all dressed up is the last thing on my mind.. so here I am firmly in the mummy in leggings category, yep, I’m slummy. HOWEVER, there is finally a trend that puts comfort first. Now stepping out in trainers, leggings and loose fit tees is a real live look and it’s all in the…

We’ve all heard the saying “new year, new you” and while it might seem like a cliche, what better way to start the new year, than focusing on yourself? While most people set unrealistic resolutions they have no intention of keeping, why don’t you start by working on your outside in.
