Buying new wellies suitable for welly wangling
Buying new wellies is always exciting for children. But not so much for me. N tends to have 2 pairs on the go at once. One pair left at nursery ready for forest school at any time, and another pair…

Clothing children with handmedowns or swishing
When we were children, handmedowns were quite normal. Being the eldest with a brother, there wasn’t many of my clothes passed down (apart from maybe jeans because I always had boys jeans for a few years anyway), but I was…
Colourful clothes for boys
While I’m quite a conservative dresser myself (navies and purples make up a large part of my wardrobe), I do like to see N in brights. Not wacky but colourful clothes, something that pops colour, rather than just jeans and…
My health, hair and beauty essentials from Chemist Direct
I’m a bit of a creature of habit when it comes to hair and beauty essentials. No, that’s not quite true, with shampoo I do tend to switch between a few brands, and try out some new ranges when they’re…
Summer ready, shorts galore
I love spring, and we’re most definitely now in it. Sod that the equinox hasn’t been and gone yet, meteorologically, March equals spring. So that means new clothes, lighter, brighter clothes, and sales shopping. Admittedly, I’m waiting until I lose…
Mother’s Day gifts and jewellery at Notonthehighstreet.com
*Ad – gifted We all know it’s Mother’s Day coming up, and either hope for a lie in, breakfast in bed, a gift and card, or a combination of all 3. Thankfully N comes home from both nurseries with Mother’s…
Trendy Thursday – whales and bicycle t shirts
I’ve been trying to look out for some more summery t shirts, and Sainsbury’s came to the rescue as usual the other week. I’m always in there checking their boyswear out. Add to that their regular 25% off Tu clothing,…
Getting creative – designing and painting t shirts
I’ve had a stash of fabric paints for ages, and meant to get round to decorating some bags and tops, but needless to say we never got round to it. But recently buytshirtsonline.co.uk sent us a t-shirt design kit to let N…
Dancing cranes on funky shirts
It’s been a while since I’ve written a style post, largely because a) I’ve never got round to doing my sale haul from January. Argh, I did a video about it, but it’s still not been edited and I didn’t…
Going organic with Green People Age Defy+ skincare
I have to admit to being a bit slack on the skincare front. I always cleanse, but I prefer a water based cleanser which is more like a toner (morning face wash in the shower is fine, but I still…
Succumbed to the onesie – Gruffalo style
I’m not and never have been a fan of the onesie. But N seems to be quite taken with them after having a sleepover at the farm along with 2 of his cousins, both of whom were wearing onesies. The…
