Reviewed – The Bramley Tote from Pink Lining
The second review in my ‘life begins at 40 week’ concerns a gorgeous bag from the ultimate ‘Yummy Mummy’ company Pink Lining. The Bramley Tote, in the navy bows colour option, is the bag that I will be using at the airport for my upcoming holiday – it is spacious, wipe clean and just so pretty. Pink Lining is a company that puts the ‘yummy’ into ‘yummy mummy’, not least because it often uses cupcakes as a motif on its wide range of bags. The company produces a collection of bags that are perfect for moms on the go, and are particularly well known for the change bags that come…

Reviewed – Lacey Burnout Kaftan from Boux Avenue
My second review from Boux Avenue moves away from the lounge wear and sleepwear of the last review, and instead looks towards my summer holidays. This review is concerned with a piece I fell in love with the minute I saw it online, and then loved even more when I saw it in the flesh. The only problem was choosing which colour I liked best! The Lacey Burnout Kaftan from Boux Avenue is a beautiful holiday cover-up. It comes in white and black, and a glorious raspberry shade of pink. I totally loved the pink, and am still really tempted to get it, but I opted for classic white, a…

Laser Hair removal at CoLaz Advanced Beauty Specialist
We all love summer, the sunshine, the long days and those endless light nights. It really is a time of the year when everyone seems to feel happier, possibly because they are looking forward to getting away for the holidays and spending some time with family and friends. It is also a lovely time in terms of fashion. The thick tights get put back into the drawer, and the sun-dresses and the sandals come out of their winter hibernation. But there is a downside to all this sunshine, and that is the endless shaving of legs that we seem to do to keep them smooth and silky and looking their…

The sun is shining – get on your bike
Now that Summer is almost here, and the weather is being kind to us, I think it is the perfect time to get out in the sunshine and get on your bike. I am a huge fan of cycling as a form of exercise, and love the fact that it is a perfect activity for all the family to get involved in, regardless of age. It is also a great way to check out the countryside, or some of the great cycling routes and trails that are all around the country. I tend to get involved in a cycling event of some form each year. In 2012 I was part…
