In my Style category you’ll find posts covering beauty, interiors and fashion. I love chatting about interiors, musing about fashion and sharing my own beauty regimes.
Last week I shared a ‘winter warmer’ wishlist for myself, so I thought I better get started working on the kids winter wardrobe too! At the moment the kids are knocking about in trainers still but I know it’s only a matter of weeks till it’ll cold enough for boots, thick coats and woolly hats!… Read More
If you are looking for a party dress you are in the right place. Below is a quick round up of some of the nicest ones I have found while shopping online. Plenty of choice for the curvier woman I must admit I was very relieved to see that there are plenty of dresses out… Read More
I’ve spent a while honing my mum uniform, and though I want to edge towards more dresses at some point, but at the moment it’s a skinny jeans with a lot of stretch, a jumper and a pair of flip flops. However the temperatures are rapidly decreasing and especially at 8.15 in the morning it… Read More
I love wrapping up but only when it is properly cold, I can’t be doing with being too hot and we’re definitely coming into those awkward few weeks when you need a coat in the morning pre-9am but not any time after midday as it’s too warm. At the moment I am still in a… Read More

Let’s face it, nobody likes talking about cleaning, or even dealing with it really! But family life generally means you have a fair amount of excess waste and dirty clothes on a daily basis, despite trying to limit it by recycling and re-wearing! As Athena nears school age where she will be wearing uniform daily,… Read More
I’ve been using the Hydra Cell Active range from Elizabeth Grant for almost four weeks now, and so far so good! My skin is on the dry side, but can get a little oily especially in warm weather. My previous skincare routine was to use a little facial oil every couple of days and moisturise… Read More
I’ve written before about wanting to get the kitchen finished now we’ve been here a year (exactly a year last week in fact!) and we’re almost done with the kitchen! We had two windows replaced just after christmas for double glazed ones and it’s made a huge difference to the room. One was a big… Read More
I am probably jumping the gun a little here seeing as we’ve not actually started work on our bathroom (though here are some of my ideas) but it’s always more fun to plan the pretty things rather than the functional things, right? As I’ve said before our bathroom is big but dingy with only a… Read More
