In the summer we visited North Wales for a week staying in Porthmadog and on our travels we took a day trip to Portmerion. Portmerion is a lovely place inspired by an Italian style village. We were very fortunate it was a lovely sunny day and the colours were amazing in the slight. It has a slightly…
The weather has gone dramatically cooler to what it was only a few weeks ago. I’m thankful of it to be honest as it was becoming unbearable. The month of September is usually a busy month and this year is no different. With the weather changing this invariably means a change in wardrobe staples. For…
It has been so usually hot recently in the UK. I have just got back from holiday in northern Spain and it was actually just as hot there as it was here, but the difference being that there was actually air conditioning where we were staying, a pool and a beach nearby and that made…
I bought my little one some new dresses for the summer holidays. I saw the white dress with embroidery and thought that’s so lovely and then bought a few more from Next. I also bought from pieces from Shein as well as one from Vinted that was also from Shein originally. I do like to…
My husband decided one day that he was going to switch some of his usual products to more natural ones. The first one he did was this deodorant from Fussy. I was a bit later to try this, but he actually bought some for me to try so I decided to give it a go….

I am constantly waiting for perfection. In fact, waiting for perfection nearly stopped me from writing this. Not that I am a perfectionist at heart – I’m not, to be honest. What I mean is sometimes you over think and overwait for the right time, and the thing is you can be waiting for that…
Bank holiday weekend is time for us to pause. I usually find myself very excited for Easter weekend, there is usually so much for us to reflect on. I must admit I am a avid fan of hot cross buns! I am not even sure why, but I could eat them all day long. I…
I recently visited the lovely town of Stratford upon Avon. What a nice time I had there. If you didn’t know already, it is the birthplace of Shakespeare. It wasn’t that far to travel to from the North West and I wanted to go somewhere that had a little bit of history. I had been…
