A few of my favourite outfits of Athena’s from the last month or so… Giraffe fleece suit: Matalan.Rainbow striped fleece hoody: Joules. I love how things for babies come with ears, as if babies needed making any cuter! Aztec/horse print playsuit: Tesco (& was reduced to ~£5 last time I was in!) Heart print swimming costume: Boots…
Tunic: Asos. Jeans: Topshop. Shoes: New Look. Alas the only useable photos both had an ‘arm on hip’ pose, sorry! That’s what happens when you take your snaps at a Garden centre full of old people buying Christmas trees. I bought this tunic from Michelle’s twitter sale so she gave it to me when we met up last weekend.…
Last Sunday I spent the day in London with a handful of bloggers, is there a proper word for a gathering of bloggers? Anyway, I met Katie (hook,line and sink her) at Victoria and we then met Ria (wishing-for-chanel) Erin (e-elise etc & Michelle (daisybutter) at Hyde park and strolled on into Winter Wonderland. Now maybe the fact that…
Athena was Six months old on Friday, SIX MONTHS. Crazy. I’m sure people don’t bother to read the long-ass monthly updates, and although I like to read them back (& I print them out too) I thought I’d do it a little differently this month… She really has changed into a proper little person with a huge personality over…
Today I have another wonderful product from Green People to tell you about. This one would make a perfect Christmas gift for any new babies or if you know any pregnant ladies perhaps pick it up for a baby shower gift whilst it has an amazing £8.99 off! It’s so important to new mums to use natural products with…
Last week I spent a bloody lovely evening at Brighton’s Lush Store on East Street. Lyndsay had sorted out a Bloggers ‘Lock In’ so that we could browse in peace and learn a lot more about the products and ethos behind the company. We got to make our own ‘The Comforter’ bubble bar which has always been one of my…
Excitingly the lovely organic beauty company Green People are offering one of their products at a reduced rate each day for 12 days of Christmas! Todays offer is their Volumising Mascara, which I was sent to review for you! The brush has a whole load of little bristles which help to really grab each eyelash, even the lower lashes, and…
My new food mixer has pipped the dishwasher to the top of my ‘inanimate household appliance’ love list. I was relaxing in the bath earlier this week when my husband got home from work, barged through the bathroom door struggling under the weight of a large box. “I’m trying to have a bath in peace” I said. “but LOOK!” he…
Although I had plans to wait until Athena turned 6 months old before we started I actually started a couple of weeks ago around 5.5 months. She’s a chunky little thing and has grown a lot in the last month, and was actively attempting to take food out of our hands and off our plates, and she had stopped sleeping…
Brighton is full of amazingly talented people, so as part of my Christmas gift guide series I thought I’d compile my favourite Brighton based etsy sellers. Please do share your favourites in the comments too! Mooshpie: Website / Etsy Cute hand drawn illustrations on a range of items, this hand bound notebook above is just perfect. Anna’s Drawing Room: Website…
Seeing as it’s just a month away now I thought I’d talk about two Christmas traditions. One is an old one of a Christmas Stocking, but firstly a relatively new festive tradition for many of us, the Christmas Jumper! Athena and I are wearing Christmas Jumpers from George at Asda, seeing as it’s just one month away! Mine is from…
