I’ve always loved a good wide jeans – think boyfriend fit,etc. But when they disappeared off the shelves a few years ago and I outgrew my beloved old faithfuls that I already owned, the skinny jeans then welcomed me with open arms. And I loved em right back (eventually, that is). Fastforward to more recent times, I was pleased to see the return of the wider jeans, albeit in high waist only (which to be honest, I’ve only recently warmed up to). But now? In 2024, by the grace of the fashion fairies, we now have plenty options, from how wide, to how high or low, and I am Continue reading

Gift Guide: Toys for Kids
Will this be the year I do my shopping early? Probably not – why would I want to pass up on that rush of adrenaline that surges through my body as I remember on Christmas eve morning that Santa is yet to scratch off a few names from his list. Jokes. (ps. I wrote this post in late NOvember, so either I know myself well, or Im like a mini Nostrodamus who predicted by 11th hour approach to Christmas shopping…again! So just go with the following narrative, ok? hmmk) 🙂
Whilst I used to love the rush (and the bustle) of December shopping, now as a mama of many I feel like there’s just a lot more going on that needs my attention, and I’d like to make this a more calm festive season with lesss rushing. I think last years lockdown Christmas showed me that I can actually enjoy that pace instead.
So to help you (and me)get your last bits of helping Santa out, I’ve put together a solid list of toy gift ideas. Thanks to not only my kids trying and testing them out, but also chatting to the toys experts at Continue reading

Easy Personalized Doormat DIY – Merry And Bright
So I made no bones about how much I adored our “Hey Pumpkin” personalized door mat from Georgie and Moon. I had great intentions of making my own, but time and energy was just not there. However, even after that, the itch to create never left me, so about 2 weekends ago, I finally got to scratch that itch and ade one myself…all with things I already had around the house!
So if you’d like to make one too, here you go! Now, noted, this would be SO much easier if you actually had a cricut or silhouette machine, then this would seriously take you only about 10mins or so. But if like me, you dont, fret not, its still possible, and easy!
This is all Continue reading
