My second gift guide for Christmas is tailored alllll around the little loves in our lives. It’s skewed a little more towards boys, but I have included a few unisex options – especially in the “toys”, “books”, and “nursery decor” sections. Above is a little peek at some of the gifts we’ve already purchased for our son, along with a couple of his favourite board books. When I started thinking about toys, I wanted to select things which were a little more interactive. And the first thing that came to mind was a music set. I ended up going with…
It’s slightly unnerving how quickly 2020 has passed; I mean, there’s a little over five weeks until Christmas, and six and a half weeks until the new year starts. I know. It’s felt a little like it’s just crept up on me. And right now, I’m getting a head start on my Christmas gifting, so I don’t have to worry about making a last minute dash on Christmas Eve. Today I thought I’d kick off the first of a series of Christmas Gift Guides. Each one will be tailored to a specific category, starting with Small Business. I think we…
I feel like I say this every year, but the sales seem to be starting earlier and earlier. So many retailers are doing a “Black Friday preview” or early sale, so it’s worth taking a peek now in case items on your wishlist sell out. I always use this time as an opportunity to plan ahead with Christmas gifting, or to stock up on any wardrobe essentials for the season ahead. If you plan it right, you can extend your budget a bit further… and I’m sure I’m not alone in feeling that every little bit helps as we head…
After fumbling my way through my spring 30X30 capsule, I feel like I’m slowly making some headway with my personal style. As someone who has prided herself on knowing what she likes, and how to wear it, this part of the postpartum experience has left me feeling a little lost. And I think it’s probably shown in the outfits I’ve haphazardly thrown together. Wearing Ulla Johnson off shoulder top (also here and white floral version here); Aje denim mini skirt; Vaneli two tone pumps; Fendi vintage bag; Linjer earrings (10% off jewellery with code “mademoiselle10”); Missoma bracelet So when I…
Estée Lauder once said, ‘Perfume is like a new dress. It makes you quite simply marvellous’. Despite wearing it very rarely since having a baby, I’ve always loved finishing the ritual of getting ready for the day with a few spritzes of perfume. Fragrance has this uncanny ability to evoke strong memories and feelings, and I love being able to tie milestones and holidays to a perfume; it adds to the joy of wearing it. Rather than share my beauty edit this month, I instead thought I’d give a look into my (rather extensive…) fragrance collection. I tend to like…
