What I’ve learnt about my style in the last year…

DISCLOSURE: This post contains items that were very kindly gifted to me (they are marked {gifted}) 2020 was a funny old year – I mean thats the understatement of my life but I’m not going into that right now – and I found myself doing a lot of things I’d never done before – can anyone say home learning – actually please don’t, I’ve heard that phrase enough to last me until the kids leave school! I realised that being in lockdown, having a lot of gorgeous weather and maybe turning another year older, that a lot of things I…

New Year…Happier Me?

I’ve not written a from the heart post on here for a very long time. So I figured a little honest chat (or mind dump) over there wouldn’t be too he worst idea.  I can genuinely say, although for us, 2020 wasn’t the worst – we were very lucky – I can’t remember the last time I felt truly. That probably sounds ridiculous as I have four healthy (ish – Izzie’s spine aside) happy children, a wonderful husband and a lovely home. I feel selfish even writing it as I know I am very lucky – and I feel very…

All I Want For Christmas… perfect present ideas for her*

*that I would REALLY love (*hint hint wink wink*) I’m sat under a blanket compiling this list. It’s a Monday morning, I’ve got two poorly boys, one who is home from school, and I’m feeling not so great myself. I’ve been in a lot of pain with a cyst on my ovary – the first I’ve had in nearly three years – and I’ve had to cancel a planned trip to London on Wednesday, where I was going to be visiting Youtube HQ. I needed some serious cheering up, and so thought I would write my Christmas list – my…

Out Of My Comfort Zone, Confidence after Babyloss & Making New Friends

For the last 5 years I have been a stay at home mum. Mummy to two little people, later three. At home I am in my little bubble. I struggle from time to time as we all do. I spend my days with three people less than 3ft tall, lacking in adult conversation and always wondering whether I’m doing the right thing. That said I feel confident in my role as Mummy – I know that ultimately I am doing my best for them, and hopefully shaping them into the wonderful adults they will become. I found it hard for…

Autumn/Birthday Wishlist | Mummy Style 

Oh no she didn’t just mention the A word! I’m sorry!!  The grey soggy weather that we’ve had this week, coupled with the awful cough I’ve had has only meant one thing this week – lots of Netflix and lots of online window shopping.  September to the end of December is my favourite time of year – the autumn and the run up to The C word – I’m not brace enough to type that one yet.  I wouldn’t be a good wife / daughter if I didn’t come up with some Birthday ideas for my birthday in September, and…

Mummy Style: UK Holiday Capsule Wardrobe

*This post is not sponsored in any way, I’ve just picked items that I love and/or already own* I actually made myself laugh when I wrote the title of this post – capsule wardrobe – pah! As my long suffering husband who has to squeeze everything into the car when we go away will tell you, I do not pack lightly! Obviously I would not only take these items with me – chances are we could have a week of blazing sunshine, and the coats and jumpers would not be needed. As we live in Britain, the likelihood is there…
