Gudrun Sjoden Organic Knit Tunic Review
I often review truly beautiful items of clothing on the blog, stunning dresses that are worthy of a party or a red carpet event. I love doing this, who doesn’t enjoy wearing something exquisite and princessy? But, my wardrobe is full of other things, the sort of clothes I wear every day, for shopping, football practice and the school run. These pieces are just as important for me, I still like to look and feel stylish, even if I am working from home. I genuinely believe that if you look good, you feel better and totally up your game in whatever you happen to be doing. Gudrun Sjoden is a…

Fashion-Mommy Loves: A little bit of Paris
It is no secret that I love all things French. I’m an absolute Francophile when it comes to food, fashion and men (come on…my love for Olivier Giroud is plastered all over this blog whenever I get an excuse). So when the lovely Becky from The Lifestyle Blogger UK sent me this beautiful little cosmetic bag, I was over the moon. Why? Well it’s a celebration of all things Paris of course, and with a vintage feel too. In short, it’s totally Fashion-Mommy. This little make up bag is the perfect handbag size. It will easily carry a lipstick, mascara, eye pencil and powder, a touch up kit, and would…

Floral Embellished Skater Dress from Lovedrobe
There are some dresses that make you feel like a princess when you wear them. Really beautiful, romantic dresses with embellishment and beading, the sort of pretty floaty gowns that you can see a celebrity wearing for a red carpet event. The floral embellished Skater Dress from Lovedrobe is just one of those dresses. It would be a wonderful pick for a special event – a party, a prom or a wedding, but it is also very easy and comfortable to wear. To put it simply, I adore this dress. This is a truly beautiful dress. The bodice is heavily embellished with decorative floral beading and sequins in gold and…

A little black dress and a pair of red shoes
Trends come and trends go, but a little black dress is a timeless classic, destined to be around forever. It is a piece of clothing that will take you to any occasion (even acceptable for weddings these days) and it is something that never looks anything less than chic. We all agree that Coco Chanel was a fashion genius, but maybe her greatest gift to the world was making the little black dress something much more than funeral attire. I don’t think I could count the amount of black dresses that I own, for both every day wear and evening attire. My latest favourite is the Lovedrobe pleated lace dress…

Love is in the air…but watch those shoes!
It’s Valentine’s Day, the day of love and romance, so I will start the day with a story, a true story, one not for the faint hearted however. A long time ago I went on a date with someone I was rather keen on. It started well with drinks in a local pub, but I couldn’t help noticing there was a pretty nasty smell in the air, one that could only be described as like a wet dog. We moved onto another pub, but I noticed the smell seemed to be following us. And then I noticed my date’s trainers, dirty, wet looking and totally smelly. I think it was…
