CHARNOS LINGERIE | The Everyday Luxury of Zara

September 4, 2018

  So I’m a perfectionist.  If it isn’t ‘just right’ it isn’t good enough, and that applies whether I’m painting my nails, hanging out the washing or securing a symmetrical nappy.  And I’m just as anal about my lingerie – if the fit isn’t spot […]

Freya Lingerie | ‘Soiree Lace’ Fuller Bust Bra Set

November 27, 2017

Great fitting bras have been thin on the ground for me lately.  You’d think as a lingerie blogger I’d be so inundated with fabulous lingerie that my underwear draw would be bursting at the seams – it is, but not with anything I can wear.  I’m […]

Mimi Holliday Tilt A Whirl | Sensually Sweet Lingerie

June 17, 2017

  Lingerie is more than simply underwear to me.  It channels my personality and allows me to reflect however I’m feeling, using colour, texture and style to play on my mood. Pregnancy was a time of my life that changed my relationship with underwear; I no longer wore […]

Royce Maternity: Floral ‘Florence’ Nursing Bra

January 27, 2017

Maternity lingerie can be too beige.  Don’t get me wrong, beige has its place, it’s fantastic when you want a neutral colour that won’t show through your clothes.  But sometimes neutral, basic colours don’t cut it, and maternity underwear can be guilty of being so niche, […]

The Maternity Bra: The Pregnancy Purchase Your Boobs Will Thank You For

January 12, 2017

Pregnancy changes things, your breasts being one (or two) of them.  While everything’s focussed on the little life inside you, there’s just as much going on in the bra department.  In fact, even before your bump has begun surfacing, most likely your boobs are already looking different, […]

Mum’s been in hospital for a few months now with Mum’s been in hospital for a few months now with a diagnosis of CIDP. Had never even heard of it before. From what little I understand, it’s a chronic rare autoimmune disorder where the body attacks its own nerves, causing damage that affects feeling in hands and feet, reducing dexterity and mobility to practically nothing. It’s terrifying. 😟

Mum’s being such a fighter. Taking on all the rehab and treatments while having to rely on the nurses for doing anything. It’s heartbreaking to see her limited to her hospital bed with pain and uncomfortable sensations in her body. It’s literally the ultimate nightmare illness that sets to steal your independence and very wellbeing. 😢

But Mum is a warrior of faith 💪 who stands on scripture that boasts healing in the name of Jesus. 🗡️ 🛡️ So we’re praying for a full recovery with the hope that Mum will be back in her own home again soon. 

Love you, Mum! ❤️

AD✨ Washing away the January blues with some vib AD✨ Washing away the January blues with some vibrant undies by @myoddballs.

Comfy and cute is mandatory for droll days like this. ☁️ Fully stretch cotton with soft seams and deep elastic bands mean Oddballs crop tops and boxer briefs stay put and wear like a dream.

I adore the pants!  They fit like a glove and are sooo comforting on period days when I need to wear a heat pad on my tummy.

Just need to request a fuller bust crop top cos my b(.)(.)bs need more snuggle room! 😄

Here’s something you may bump into me doing… b Here’s something you may bump into me doing… bargain shopping, charity shopping, thrift hauling, call it what you will. I love the thrill of shopping, always on the hunt for silly prices and getting a deal with a little “squee” dance when it hits the sweet spot. 

Who else loves bargain shopping? 🛍️

Shaun the Sheep ‘Find the Flock’ trail at was Shaun the Sheep ‘Find the Flock’ trail at was fun! 🐑 

Did this back in December in the run up to Christmas, when we went to Belsay Hall in Northumberland. There’s still time to do it if you haven’t, as the awesome sheepies are there til the 26th January 2026. It’s a really nice walk around Belsay’s gardens so worth a visit.

So which do you think looks the best one?  I love the gingerbread Shaun and the gardener Shaun because it has some lovely little bugs all over him. 🐞
