    Ho Ho Homicide – A Christmas Murder Mystery

    December 29, 2013 /

    So normal people have nights out in all their glitz and glam for Christmas, the friendship group I’m part of like to get together and dress up. I much prefer this. Everyone (should) reaches an age where going out and getting plastered at Christmas doesn’t appeal anymore, my little sister reached it on Boxing Day where she lasted 10 minutes in the nightclub before heading home to her boyfriend and puppy, and even though everyone drinks at these gatherings (and sometimes I get a bit silly after a bottle of wine and make a fool of myself still) it’s not to the extent of days gone by. Last Saturday I…

    It’s True Wherever You Find Love, It Feels Like Christmas

    December 27, 2013 /

    Can you believe that Christmas is over already for another year?! No.. neither can I! All that preparation and stress and it’s over in a blink. I would go back and do the whole of December again if I could. The build up was so enjoyable this year. Little Miss was at a wonderful age where she understood exactly what was going on and Christmas morning was my favourite time this year. I didn’t mind at all it being just the two of us. In fact, it made it all the more perfect. Little Miss was spoiled rotten by everyone who knows us and my friends clearly proved them know…

    Another Public Service Announcement of Sorts

    December 19, 2013 /

    Evening & a very merry six sleeps until Christmas to all my readers! As you can see above I’ve decided to take a small hiatus from blogging. This is not a blogging black out, there will be sporadic life related posts over the festive period but I will not be actively around from tonight until into the New Year. I do not feel like I should apologise for this. After having the worst year of my life I want to dedicate this period to spending time with my family and friends. Those who have helped me carry on this year when I’ve felt I could not. After the last two…

    #ChristmasJumperDay 2013

    December 13, 2013 /

    If you’re not feeling remotely festive yet, I’d probably question your mentality slightly. This is my second Christmas as a mother though and I can no longer remember what it’s like to work right through December and not have Santa on the TV screen from the 1st November. Not that I mind. I’ve always enjoyed Christmas up until three years ago.. then I was ill.. followed by being pregnant and living with the worst person in the world and then last year, single mother with an under one year old.. HOWEVER, finally I feel like I’m getting back into my past festive ways. Tree up on the 25th November, Christmas…

    Five Favourite Festive Shower Products

    December 12, 2013 /

    LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER FOR SALE You have to admit, one of the best things about Christmas, in regards to being a beauty blogger is all the festive products that are released. Some places like The Body Shop release different scented ranges every year, others bring back their old faithfuls in limited edition form like Kiehls, but the packaging always looks much better. And other places, like Lush, release a mixture of both. I’ll be the first to say there are plenty I am a sucker for. Especially when it comes to products to use in the shower, since I shower much more these days, at…

    Outfit of the Day – You Look So Good in Blue

    December 11, 2013 /

    Kudos to you if you recognise the lyrics in the title! Now that I’ve discovered that my kitchen is the best place to take outfit posts, expect a lot more! It’s amazing how flattering good lighting can be! This post is slightly delayed as all the original photos were on my camera that I left on the train on Sunday. I’m still mourning the loss of my cat bag, Disney Couture Alice purse and the camera! All my photos from my weekend away were on it as well as my outfit photos! Absolutely devastated! But I only have myself to blame. Today’s outfit post is a little “much” for a…
