Fabulous Retro Swimsuit for tall women from LTS
I’m not very demanding where swimsuits are concerned. I have an innate horror of a two-piece (way too many curves to reveal, thank you), but I do need a one-piece that’s long enough for my 6ft frame, that won’t make me look like the back end of a bus (no mean feat). It needs to be secure enough to withstand swimming races and deep-end dives with the competitive teens, but be minimal enough for some sunning beside the...
WIN some Wild Excitement (worth over £100!) with Durex. Adults Only!
We’re properly excited to finally let you all in on our new project – we’re teaming up with Durex in July to talk about.. sex. Yes, really! It’s summertime, and the loving should be easy, to misquote Gershwin. And this weekend the husband and I will celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary (and NO I’m not that old, I just got married really young. No really, I did!) – it feels incredibly appropriate...
Spotted! Canvas Leather Backpack perfect for summer trips
Lookety look! A pretty canvas leather backpack! If there’s one thing that annoys me in the summer, it’s having to carry a handbag – you need a bag with you, but when you’re out and about adventuring, you want your hands free, don’t you? but backpacks are inherently ugly, so I usually make do with a lovely messenger bag (which is actually just too small for purse/keys/phone/sunglasses, never mind...
Ragtales – Beautiful Toys with a Beautiful Story
AS you can imagine, we have been sent a LOT of of soft toys over the years. I once tried to add up the value of all the soft toys in the daughter’s then-five-yr-old bedroom. It frankly made my eyes water. We’ve been sent toys by the biggest high street giants, and tiny little handmade gems by Etsy sellers. We’ve got a 5′ rabbit (named FluffyWully. Don’t ask.), and an entire house full of small Maileg...
Mug For Life | Father’s Day Gift Ideas
We properly LOVE Mug For Life – and their Tea Lovers Gift Pack is genius. We bought the boxed gift set for the tea-mad 15yr old at Christmas, and it as properly amazing – he drinks a fair few mugs a day, sitting at his desk; which means a fair few mugs-worth of sloshes and drips up the stairs (and a few spills across the keyboard…). But no more! The ONLY mug he’s allowed to take upstairs is his Mug for Life...
Brilliant Smartphone Projector | Father’s Day Gift ideas
Such a clever ole trickery – a smartphone projector. No REALLY! At first I didn’t get it – why would you want to project from your phone? But then I totally did. Project your favourite movie onto the wall while you’re snuggled up in bed. Show your mates that hilarious fail video but don’t want to show it 8 times over because not everyone can see the screen? The Smartphone Projector has been designed by Luckies...
