Gorgeous Tall Linen Tunic – Holiday Wardrobe Essentials for Tall Girls
I’ve already written about the fabulous swimsuit that I found over on Long Tall Sally for this summer (which is now sold out… you snooze, you lose ladies…). But they’ve got two other items which are absolutely, completely, totally, essential for your holiday packing. First up is The Tall Linen Tunic. Absolute timeless classic, this tunic became an immediate staple in my wardrobe (from about 2 minutes after it...
Clothes With Cats On for the girl. Happy and Bargainous!
It is a never-ending source of sorrow for our 8yr old girl that we do not have a cat. We do have the Most Useless Dog In The World, of course, but she’s always wanted a cat. And ever since she has started reading the Warrior Cats series it has become an all-consuming passion. She’s changed her Minecraft name. She’s even writing Warrior Cats fan-fiction on her blog. We’re not heartless – we also love cats....
Hunting for a perfect sofa ? Trust me. Do it with Sofa.com
As a 70’s Essex child, the ‘sofa’ is a bit of a weird new world. It’s a settee, innit? And once you had one, you paid no more attention to it until it broke. My Nan had a huge faux-leather mustard coloured one that was older than I was, ridiculously hot and uncomfortable to legs in shorts or skirts and never seemed to age or sink no matter how many dogs and grandchildren passed through her little house. I...
Crocs. Yes. (even a Prince wears them now…)
We know, we know. Crocs. Rubber shoes. (now just stop recoiling in horror, and read a bit more pleasethankyou) I know. I do. But. I can’t actually think of any item of footwear more suitable for a child than one made of rubber? But you HAVE to get the real deal. Please don’t think it’s okay to opt for the cheap imitation versions out there – there’s a whole world of difference between the two. Real Crocs...
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...
Sending Flowers Internationally with FloraQueen | Review
I have a very dear friend who lives a very long way away – far too far away for me to pop in for a coffee with when she’s in need. I’ve been promising flowers to her for a very long time. Recently she’s had more than her fair share of rubbishness, and I felt the time had come to actually send her some real life daisies, rather than the cyber picture kind. So when Floraqueen asked if they could send me a...
