This is a collaborative post. Spring wedding season is fast approaching. And if you’re planning to get married in 2019, the big preparations like the venue, the wedding rings, the photographer and the dress are probably already well in hand. What still lies ahead, however, is your personal care and your dream of looking like the best version of yourself on your big day. Of course, the person you’re marrying is likely to think you’re gorgeous no matter what. But…
Bathtime is an essential part of our bedtime routine. And it is now one of my favourite parts of the day. I love seeing my two children in the bath together laughing and giggling. The bath products that we use are an essential part of this sacred time. But both the children have different requirements of what they want at bathtime. Little Miss H wants bubbles and lots of them. And Little Mister H needs a mild shampoo that won’t…
Last weekend, I began to feel that Little Mister H might make an early appearance. And I panicked! I hadn't written a birth plan and my hospital bags weren't packed.

And so the idea behind Vlog Club and sharing our Top Fives was born. The theme will change every month and August's theme is My top five beauty products. Do pop back in September for my top five chick flicks! …
The winter is not a good time for Little Miss H. Her already highly sensitive skin becomes dry with little patches of eczema. Thankfully, the lovely people at AVEENO sent us three skin care products to review: the AVEENO Cream, AVEENO Lotion and AVEENO Bath and Shower Oil. These products are especially designed for people with dry, sensitive and eczema-prone skin; perfect for Little Miss H.…
I know exactly what I will be doing in a month’s time. I will be drinking prosecco, enjoying a baby free night and having a fantastic time. In a month’s time I am going to be Matron of Honour to the beautiful and wonderful soon-to-be Mrs S. I am beyond excited. It is going to be a fabulous day. However, something rather disturbing has just dawned on me. I am going to be in photos. Their photographer is hugely talented (check…
