This year I'm making a conscious effort to support small businesses when it comes to Christmas shopping, from food to gifts, to decorations and gift wrap. Wherever possible I'm avoiding the high street chains and buying from local and independent sellers. I don't know about you but one of my favourite things about Christmas is… Continue reading Why you should support small businesses this Christmas [gift guide and £200+ giveaway]
It's been the first full week (ok, I'm part-time but still) back at work since Christmas and I've been bleddy knackered. The commute means I'm ready for bed come 8pm on a Wednesday so I don't really get much done the first half of the week. Now's the time for catching up on laundry, tidying… Continue reading Friday Favourites #30
Holy shitballs, have you seen the new Kate Spade dinosaur bags?! My fave is the T-Rex (also available as an iPhone case - has anyone started the campaign for Android cases yet?). I've long been a fan (but sadly not owner of) her novelty range and there is so much to swoon over. I'm also… Continue reading Item of the day: Kate Spade dinosaur bags

When you're going out in a little black dress or skinnies and a nice top, and you want a little something-something to jazz up your outfit a bit, look no further than this gorgeous clutch bag from Accessorize. It's £49.00 and perfect for the upcoming party season.
Anyone else have to carry their whole life around with them when they leave the house? Granted, with a toddler in tow, there's a lot more stuff required, but even when I'm off to work I still pack pretty much everything except the kitchen sink. Accessorize is great for pretty, over-sized bags and I love… Continue reading Item of the day: Free Spirit weekender bag from Accessorize
Today is a big day in any bookworm's calendar - Roald Dahl Day. And not just any Roald Dahl Day - it's the celebration of what would be his 100th birthday! An extra special day indeed! And in honour of this momentous occasion, I've put together a little wish list of products that any Dahl… Continue reading Happy Roald Dahl Day!
Today's item of the day is a bit of a biggie because I wanted to squeeze my picks of the Next sale into my week's scheduled posts. Here are my fave little beauties (search the names to bring up the items - I always find it hard navigating the sale stuff on the website!). Oatmeal… Continue reading Item(s) of the day: Best of the Next sale
