    Perfect Spring and Summer dresses for girls

    March 19, 2019 /

    Perfect Spring and Summer dresses might be on my mind as the weather warms up a little. However, these days the really stylish female in the family is my 14 year old daughter Willow. Gone are the days where I could buy clothes for her. She has definite ideas what she likes and woe betide me if I second-guess her. However, she was super excited when I said that she could choose a dress from David Charles. This is the place to find designer children’s dresses for little ones right up to teenagers. Perfect Spring and Summer dresses My daughter is very independent and I miss the days where she…

    Perfect Spring shoes from Hotter help Marie Curie

    March 18, 2019 /

    I am looking for perfect Spring shoes as I realise there is a new season on the way. It is time to put my boots away for another day. It’s important to find something comfortable and flat. I love a bit of colour when it come to footwear too so I was thrilled to hear about the Tara shoes from Hotter. Even better, these shoes help support the Marie Curie. Marie Curie are there at the times when you need someone to support you through the toughest of times. Generous charity partnership For every pair of Tara shoes sold, £20 will go to Marie Curie helping to fund an hour of…

If not, here’s your to-do list for the upcoming summer BBQing season as your guide to getting your garden ready for a barbecue.

    Things to enjoy in a sunny garden

    April 18, 2018 /

    It’s such a relief to be able to talk about warm temperatures and to think about getting  outdoors with the family. Spring is definitely here and it’s time to make the most of that sunny garden. Here are great things to enjoy in a sunny garden. Barbecue – things to enjoy in a sunny garden There is something very special about eating outdoors perhaps with a picnic laid out on a tartan blanket. However, as we all know there is nothing quite like persuading the men in our lives to get involved in cooking than suggesting a barbecue. You can make it a social affair with extended family and friends…

    Great dresses for Spring

    February 21, 2018 /

    Great dresses for Spring are on my mind for two reasons. Firstly, we are getting occasional sunny days with blue skies so I do feel the new season might be here soon. It is long overdue if you ask me after cold and rainy days for months. Secondly, I have more of a social life this year and want to look good when out and about.   So if it is time to get the legs out, what are the best dresses for a curvy woman like me. Maxi dress I am a big fan of the maxi dress as I think these dresses are always head-turners and by using…

    Top tips for Spring cleaning to make it a breeze

    April 11, 2016 /

    What are your 10 top tips for Spring cleaning? I think Winter seemed to last far too long so I am loving opening up the windows and paying some attention to those areas of the home that are the hardest hit during winter – namely your carpets. Yes, it’s time for the annual Spring Clean. But, if you are thinking vacuuming is enough, think again. According to the homecare experts at BISSELL, even the best vacuums simply can’t reach the deeply imbedded dirt within your carpet’s fibres. The process of carpet cleaning – engineered to reach the dirt and allergens left behind by vacuuming – is just as easy and…
