Lush blogger event. 20.10.2017
Don't mind me, I just have a serious long time Lush love affair going on over here. I'm like a sniffer dog, I can always tell when one is close by. I've always loved Lush, I love the mixture of products you get and the things they stand for. Cruelty free and ethical packaging is... Continue Reading →
Babies can be disgusting. The stuff no one tells you.
My last post about my struggle with anxiety was a hard one to write. It sat in my drafts for weeks and weeks before I plucked up the courage to post it. So I've decided to lighten things up a little with a jokey post. So Jack turns 3 months old in a week. Feels... Continue Reading →
Anxiety.
"Don't believe everything you think" Mental health is a funny thing in society. Just as you feel the stigma is being knocked down something happens that brings it right back up. I've seen a lot online lately about anxiety in particular being called a 'fad'. I can only assume it's because people are slowly feeling... Continue Reading →
Sequins, velvet and all things fun.
My name is Holly and I'm an shopping addict. It's always the same isn't it? You either go with lots of pennies in your bank and see nothing, or go just before payday and find everything you could ever want. My biggest guilty pleasure is online shopping. You can just settle down with a nice... Continue Reading →

Also, I'm going to try keep details to a minimum but what's a birth story without some mucus talk?... Continue Reading →
Pregnancy – The smiles, scares and symptoms.

Once I got older the reality of what being a mum was quickly dawned on me, it definitely wasn't as I played it... Continue Reading →
Oh so glowy.
I'm a sucker for skincare products. Doesn't matter how much I have, I always buy more. There's just so many products out there isn't there?! And they all seem to claim to do the same thing. We certainly aren't stuck for choice. I'm not a one brand kinda gal, except for Clinique. That's my absolute... Continue Reading →
Baby massage.
Today has been a triumph! Jack and I managed to get out to our first baby class. Baby massage. We have been out the house heaps together but never really had to be somewhere for a certain time like today. If we go out as a family at the weekend it doesn't really matter if... Continue Reading →
Reflux, colic and extended baby blues.
The first few days with Jack were almost easy. Yeah, I was struggling with breastfeeding but all in all I thought we cracked it. I remember sitting one night while Jack was sound asleep with smug proudness. My baby fed (albeit not easily) and then slept on repeat. Oh, how I was wrong. It was... Continue Reading →
