The reasons for this post were twofold; the primary reason being that the nicer weather meant I could finally bring out my old favourite side stripe wide leg trousers, and the second simply because everywhere I go I’m seeing side stripes... A stripe is often a popular choice at this time of year, as is a ...
I have a theory; if I dress like it's already Spring, it will show up. Much like the book The Secret says, (if you haven't read it I highly recommend) if you put positivity out to the Universe you get it back, I have decided I am going to dress for warmer (drier) weather and ...
This is not my first post about the many reasons why I love faux-liage but since then I now have twice as many faux plants in my house which has been entirely fuelled by their popularity on the high street. Whereas it was once far from ok to have fake flowers in your home, now ...
We are just hours away from the long Easter weekend - yay! I love a bank holiday weekend and especially Easter as it involves four days of eating chocolate, dressing up your child in all number of novelty clothing and no working. And it wouldn't be Easter without a bunny or two, (which I am ...
As Louis Armstrong once sang "I don't care what the weatherman says" - and quite frankly I don't now. This week marked the official start of spring so I don't plan on letting the (big or mini) Beast From The East deter me from enjoying some seasonal related fashion/retail therapy. Plus I've also found since ...
When I initially sat down to compile a Mother's Day gift guide for the blog, I didn't actually envisage buying something from it for myself (Happy Mother's Day to me!), it's certainly one of the hazards of this job! As I scoured the internet for the perfect gift suggestions I soon clapped eyes on these ...
Following nearly a week of being housebound this post feels very appropriate now. The Beast From The East got us good in the shire and despite all the power of positivity and my unrelenting determination, all attempts to get us out of the house were futile. While usually I'm more than happy to hunker down and ...
With Valentine's Day and Shrove Tuesday ticked off the list for 2018 already, next up is Mother's Day a week on Sunday (is it just me or is this year going frighteningly fast already?!). Whether you choose to exchange gifts or not, Mothering Sunday is the perfect opportunity to spoil your mum, make her feel ...
Since being on maternity leave I have become a fully fledged supermarket special buy fan. It's more than likely because I spend so much time in them these days (there's always something I need) and began in the early days when a wander down the aisles would work wonders to get Daisy to sleep! I'm ...
Daisy is two!!! How did this happen?! Two weeks later and I still cannot fathom this fact. While it's indeed amazing to think we have had this wonderful little lady with us for two whole years and watched her grow it's so true what everyone says, they do grow up too fast (wahhhhhhh!)... In the lead ...
I'm a Fashion Editor, stylist and writer currently renovating our first home as well as recently becoming a Mummy for the first time to Daisy. Love anything grey, Scandi inspired, am a little bit camera shy and have a penchant for a flamingo. I'm also a big fan of the great British High Street and regularly scour it for amazing finds to prove you can have Style & Substance...
