Playtex Round the Clock with 24H soft
I was recently contacted to see if I would be interested in taking part in a challenge being organised by Playtex. Entitled ‘Round the Clock with 24H soft’, the challenge was to put the new 24H soft hosiery through its paces, by wearing the tights from morning until night. I was then asked to blog about my experiences of the tights – it was a challenge I was happy to take part in. As a person who is always happiest in dresses and skirts, I tend to wear tights quite a bit. But being tall and long-legged, but with a fuller figure, I often struggle to find tights that are…

The prettiest Grotto in Birmingham opens at House of Fraser
The most beautiful grotto in the Midands opened today in House of Fraser, Birmingham, promising to bring magic and festive cheer to all who visit. The House of Fraser grotto is run by the Harry Moseley Charity #HHHO (Help Harry Help Others) with all proceeds from admission tickets helping to raise vital funds. We were lucky enough to be invited along on Tuesday for a preview and promptly fell in love with the whole experience. The Grotto, which features a very realistic Santa who seems fresh from Miracle on 34th Street, is preceded by a magical Christmas village display, complete with animated penguins and Reindeers. There are house frontages where…

Beauty Review – Kiehl’s Hydro-Plumping Re-Texturising Serum Concentrate
In August I attended a special Bloggers event held by the Bullring, and I was introduced to a product that was not actually hitting stores until later that month. The product was from Kiehl’s – a brand I totally love, and it promised to do all sorts of wonderful things to the appearance of the skin. I was totally desperate to try this product out, and, I have to say, after doing so, I’ve not been disappointed. The product was the Hydro-Plumping Re-Texturising Serum Concentrate. This is a serum that promises to improve the overall appearance of skin’s plumpness, while smoothing the look of fine lines and skin texture. As…

Black Friday and Cyber Monday Deals
It may have started as an American phenomenon, but Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and the accompanying Cyber Weekend have now become a part of Christmas shopping. The discounts, offers, free delivery and other great incentives offered mean that this is a great time to grab a bargain, either in the form of Christmas gifts for family and friends, or a special treat for yourself as we reach the end of the month (which means payday for so many.) I have compiled some of my key picks from a range of stores, and will try to update this as offers come in throughout the weekend. Happy shopping! Coast – 30% off…

Review – Peter Rabbit animated series books
A big success on Cbeebies this year has been the gorgeous series based on the Peter Rabbit books by Beatrix Potter. The Peter Rabbit animated series is perfect for children under 7, with wonderful characters in the form of Peter, Benjamin and Lily (amongst others) and visually stunning animation that presents Peter as the lovely, wide eyed bunny we know and love from the classic stories. This Christmas there have been a series of books released to tie in with the series, and these would make fantastic Christmas stocking fillers for youngsters. The books range from traditional stories, in both board book and paperback form, and also a range of…
