Hi!
I hope you’re really well? All good here (despite getting a £70.00 parking ticket whilst I was having a smear test on Monday, but that’s another story…) - looking forward to a quiet Easter weekend, just catching up with friends and family. Bliss. Also feeling pretty smug as I did my Saturday strength training today instead, so I am done and dusted until Wednesday. It’s definitely not a quick fix in terms of body changes, but I’m always all about the delayed gratification.
So today’s post (for your immediate gratification) is a random mix of things I have seen and love over the past week, that I think you will too. As always it’s a bit of a jumble, but that’s the charm of it right (I hope!)?

& Other Stories Bead-Embroidery Maxi Dress, £295.00

First up this dress. It’s quite ‘loud’ for me, and generally anything remotely kitsch leaves me cold. But something about this dress is just SO COOL. I’m really drawn to it. I think it’s the colour combinations and the girly details. It would make the perfect Summer occasion dress, although possibly slightly risky if someone else was wearing it too. But worth the risk I would say. I would wear it with high platform sandals (pale pink or metallic) and a clutch bag.


MAISON M Mustard Stripe Toiletry Pouch, £32.00

These have just dropped at Maison M - one of my favourite independents (now based in Ibiza). Just love the colour and print combinations (and I’ll take all the contents too please!), and this style of bag is just so handy. I also love that they are soft, so are great for packing. And a zip always make things a little more organised doesn’t it?


For The Little Ones…

H&M Cot Duvet Set, £14.99
H&M Cot Sheet, £9.99
H&M Muslin Baby Blanket, £9.99
H&M Cot Duvet Cover Set, £34.99

The prettiest prints if you don’t want to spend a fortune on kids’ bedding.


Pretty Co-Ord…
