A couple of months ago I organised a super fun influencers event at one of my jobs – ALSO Home. The event was hosted in the super cool ALSO Home showroom in Rudgwick, West Sussex (if you haven’t come visit, DO IT!) and the gorgeous Felicity from LadyLissy Floristry was the expert. I had got in touch with Felicity a few weeks prior and soundboarded … Continue reading Scandi Hoops!
So. It’s been nearly a whole year that I’ve ignored this blog. Mainly because life got in the way, but also because I was in a place where I couldn’t quite see what I wanted to write about. In May I went back to work 4 days a week and it hit me hard. I remember so clearly dropping Jasper off for his first day … Continue reading Hello Dear Friend
Being a new mum is a daunting time. You’ve just had a baby, you need to keep this little dependent ‘being’ alive every single moment of the day. You’ve been told for the past 9-ish months to “make the most of sleep”, “go out while you still can” and the old favourite every expectant parent wants to hear “you can kiss this lifestyle goodbye”. The combination … Continue reading How to remain human as a new mum
Two legendary celebrity photographers are united in their mutual affinity for Marilyn Monroe in “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes,” an exhibition showing at The Little Black Gallery in London through February 27. The exhibit showcases some of the most iconic photos of Monroe, from Kirkland’s 1961 series, In Bed with Marilyn, featuring evocative images of Monroe wrapped in a sheet, to Greene’s Ballerina Awaiting Her Cue, which shows … Continue reading Marilyn
The world of baby classes is something I hadn’t really foreseen pre-baby arrival. Singing lots of strange songs and talking to your baby in a children’s TV presenter voice doesn’t come naturally to me but, for the sake of Jaspers development and social skills, I’ve thrown myself into this life and I’m a little embarrassed to say sometimes I allow myself to enjoy it. So … Continue reading The World of Baby Classes
Whoop! The John Lewis advert is out, Christmas lights are turning on – you can’t ignore it any longer… CHRISTMAS IS COMING! John and I have NEVER (in the 9 years we’ve been together, 2 of which we’ve been married) had a Christmas together. We always split, he goes to his family home, I go to mine and we squeeze in late night rendezvous in … Continue reading Christmas is Coming
Introducing the newest man in my life, the reason while 90% of my time is taken up. Born on the 8th of June, Jazzy J came into our lives and changed it in a way I had never imagined possible. Looking at these pictures, it’s insane how little he looks in Johns hands. Born at a meaty but manageable 8lbs 3oz, Jasper came into the … Continue reading Jasper John Forrest Davis
So… here I am, back again after possibly the biggest break I’ve had in blogging (looks like it’s been around 9 months!). To be honest, I think I ran out of things to say. We had a baby, Brexit happened, we bought a house – It’s been pretty busy. The other night I was sitting watching Gossip Girl on Netflix, wasting my maternity leave away … Continue reading Radio Silence

Since she appeared in Robin Thicke’s eyebrow-raising music video for “Blurred Lines,” people cannot get enough of Emily Ratajkowski. (And it’s easy to see why.) Now she’s transitioning from coquettish cover girl to leading lady with the DJ drama We Are Your Friends, starring opposite Zac Efron. Here, five things you never knew about Emily Ratajkowski. 1. Ratajkowski’s parents were reluctant to let her start … Continue reading Woman Crush Wednesay – Emily Ratajkowski
Pregnancy style can be a challenge. Do you conceal your bump with pretty loose boho dresses or wear it with pride in form-fitting clothes? And what about evening-wear or my current dilemma, FASHION WEEK?! I’ve tried the traditional maternity brands, the high-street options like ASOS and TopShop and I’m still not having any luck. I look at fashionable pregnant celebrities and just have no idea … Continue reading Dressing the Bump – LFW Special

This is quite a daily dilemma for me, spend ages growing your hair, then it goes boring and you want to cut it. First world problems and all that.

No room to sleep If you own a Frenchie you will never get a good night sleep again. They love to be incredibly close, under the covers, and in the most awkward positions and not to mention the snoring, dreaming and farting during the night. They have no concern for your well-being, as long as they are having plenty of kip, that’s all they want. … Continue reading 10 Reasons You Should Never Get A French Bulldog
I was conflicted about doing this post because the one thing I feel weird about is making social media a part of my pregnancy/babies life. I don’t know how I feel about “designing” your kid’s life, or creating a remotely instagrammeable lifestyle for your kid. On the other hand I think some kids things are pretty sweet, and I find myself straying into kidswear departments pretty often now that we … Continue reading Kids Stuff

We’ve seen plenty of less-than-optimal home renovations in our day, so when we came across this flawlessly reimagined Victorian Melbourne terrace home, featured on Homes to Love, we pretty much stopped dead in our tracks. Architect/owner duo Annick Houle and Stephen O’Connor of O’Connor and Houle Architecture maintained many of the home’s period details, such as its intricate façade and elegant banister, but integrated elegant modern additions, … Continue reading Victorian Home Refresh

Here we go again, that time of year when everyone promises to be a better version of themselves then they were the previous year. But no one ever sticks to it so what’s the point?
