A holiday wardrobe for Joe
In just three weeks time I will be getting really excited, and probably very flustered and panicked, as we make the final touches to our holiday packing. There is always that last minute fluster, have we got everything? Are we taking too many, or not enough clothes for two weeks?

Reviewed – Curvissa Print Maxi Dress
Curvissa has recently launched its high summer collection, full of perfect pieces for vacations and stay-cations, and I was lucky enough to be asked if I would be interested in reviewing one of the pieces. I chose the gorgeous print maxi dress which I believe is the summer dress that my wardrobe needed. The print maxi dress is made from a lovely stretchy jersey fabric that makes it comfortable to wear everyday. The print is a vibrant mixture of red, blue and white in a sort of patchwork pattern that gives the dress the feel of a classic 1970s sundress, with the detachable straps making this a great option for…
