Shoezone review – Haute Hippie festival style
I first became a fan of Shoezone when Joe was small. They sold the cutest t-bar canvas shoes that had a real retro feel and were a total bargain (2 pairs for £8 as I recall.) I loved them, and of course I had a look at the ladies selection, and found it to be full of really pretty sandals and flat pumps, all of which were really affordable. I was converted and now regularly buy shoes from the brand. I was recently offered the opportunity to review a pair of shoes, sandals or boots from their current lines. I was spoiled for choice, but decided that, as it was…

Wicked Uncle solves those Children’s party dilemmas
It all started when Joe was five. Before this, we had been invited to a few children’s birthday parties, spread out at intervals throughout the year. Then suddenly Joe hit five, and he suddenly had more party invites than the whole cast of TOWIE put together.

What I wear – April Looks

This outfit post is mainly holiday outfits, with a few very special event looks thrown in for…

Essential Items You Need In Your Capsule Wardrobe
Creating a capsule wardrobe can be tricky if you’re not sure where to start. A capsule wardrobe is supposed to include clothes and accessories that you can use to create a broad range of looks. Your collection should contain clothes that you think are essential and necessary and cover any occasion. De-cluttering can help you to see which clothes you need to fill in the gaps. It’s hard to get rid of clothes (I know!) but you’ll soon realise just how many items you never wear. Streamline your wardrobe and you will actually make all the pieces earn their keep. But regardless of how full your wardrobe is, these are…
