    Hello Four!

    January 29, 2016 /

    As I mentioned in my post on Wednesday, Little Miss turned four this week, on Thursday actually. I cannot believe my baby is now a big girl four year old, I keep having to say it out loud to make it feel real! We had a really lovely day, just family and even my dad had managed to get the day off which is something that never happens during the week. When I was putting Little Miss to be that night she told me that it was her “best day ever” and that’s a lot coming from someone who regularly spends time in the most magical places on Earth! At…

    Goodbye Three

    January 27, 2016 /

    Today is Little Miss’ last day as a three year old. Tomorrow it’s her 4th birthday. To me, four seems so much older than three. Last year when she went from two to three it didn’t feel like as a big a step. Three still feels like a baby age, or at least a toddler age. But lets face it, four is a big step. At four she’s going to start big school, and wear a uniform and be away from me 6 hours a day for 5 days a week. And I’m dreading it. I’m not ready for that baby stage to be over with in case I never…

    How Much Does it Really Cost to Attend a Wedding?*

    August 31, 2015 /

    Don’t you just love when you can get everything you need outfit wise for an occassion from one shop? Especially an online shop that so regularly has great discounts such as 20% off and great sales. Yep, you must have guessed i’m talking about ASOS. When I needed something for a special occassion this summer I head straight there to put together an outfit that wouldn’t break the bank. With the help of a great sale that seemed to last all summer, I actually felt good for once when I was going out.

    Personal Style – I Woke Up Like This

    July 21, 2015 /

    It’s been a while since I shared an outfit post, and even longer since I shared a post of what I typically wear on a “mummy day” (as in a day when I am solely being a parent and running after my toddler all day). Since we’re now into the school holidays every day is basically a mummy day and I didn’t realise how difficult it was to entertain a child all day. I’ve come to rely on those 3 hours a day she’s at pre-school! I’m trying to do something every single day but we’re only to day 4 and already i’m struggling to keep up with her! I…

    June 11, 2015 /

    Today I’m joining in with Yumi 30 Days of Summer. 30 fashion bloggers have been asked to create an outfit using their favourite SS15 pieces from Yumi’s current collection and I’m one of them.

I’m one of 30 stylish bloggers who have been asked to share their favourite summer Yumi outfit. Every day in July over on the Yumi blog there will be a different fashion blogger sharing their outfit, so make sure you check it out. So, as…

    Personal Style – The Dream That You Wish Will Come True

    March 24, 2015 /

    I have to admit, that unlike my other Disney Personal Style posts, I did not wear this dress all day. Mainly because I’m trying to get down my washing and I’d be afraid I wouldn’t get this washed and ironed in time to take it with me! I cannot believe I go in 12 days, TWELVE DAYS! I’m able to now say to Little Miss that we’re going on holiday NEXT WEEK! My threats to get her to stop misbehaving sound more real when I say “stop that or you won’t go to Disney next week” rather than just tagging on “soon” to the end. I’m onto the washing and…
