Fashion Focus – Jumpsuits from Dorothy Perkins
In the same way that the maxi dress was rescued from it’s Laura Ashley style 70s obscurity, and is now a definite wardrobe staple, the jumpsuit now seems here to stay. I can still remember the 1980s versions, boiler suits, parachute suits that seemed to be more suited to a flying lesson or working in a factory than actually being a fashion item. Early 1980s Scottish Songstress Kelly Marie seemed to have one perfectly glued to her body, and that was more than enough reason not to be wearing them. But how times change. The jumpsuit is now a super practical and much loved part of the wardrobe, and is…

M&Co 25% off event – my key picks
It has been a pretty good week for fashion shoppers, especially those who are currently planning a summer holiday wardrobe. Many of the biggest stores, both online and in the High Street have used the half term break as a perfect excuse to tempt us into shopping by offering some pretty decent discounts.

#MorrisonsMums Bank Holiday challenge
The three bank holidays have to be my favourite part of Spring. Those extra family days and the chance to spend some quality time together (and have an extra lie-in!), all these treats are just part of the reason why Spring is fast becoming my favourite season. This Mayday bank holiday was given an extra fun twist when I was chosen to be a #MorrisonsMum, taking part in a special shopping and cooking challenge. Last Thursday (May 1st) Morrisons supermarket launched a new and cheaper Morrisons. Proclaiming that there would be no difference in the great quality choice and produce that customers expect from Morrisons, the supermarket had slashed the…

My pick of Clarks new season.
My fave place to shop for shoes has to be Clarks. I get all Joe’s school shoes from there, they literally last until he needs a new size, they are hard-wearing and tough and yet super comfortable too. My hubby is a big fan of the Clarks Originals Desert Boots, having both the suede and leather versions, and basically living in them, especially the leather ones. As for me, I am a total Clarks Addict, having a huge range of boots, heels and flats from the brand. It really is a brand that I would find no problem recommending to anyone. I always get excited with the new ranges that…

M&Co and the perfect kids T-shirts
This blog has often featured M&Co’s great range of ladies clothes, but the High Street store is also a great place to buy good quality clothes for children. I have been buying clothes for my son Joe from M&Co since he was just a baby, they have a great range that washes well and fits nicely, so I was more than happy for Joe to test drive one of the latest range of character t-shirts that have been introduced for Spring. And with Lego Movie T-shirts amongst the multiple designs, the choice for Lego-Mad Joe was very simple. M&Co currently have a great Lego range to tie in with the…
