Right, I have been rather rebellious with the blog over the last month or two – sorta just ignored penning down my thoughts because I just wanted to let my mind wander – and, oh, does my mind wander. The most exercise I do is the constant blitz of ideas that run through my mind. See, I did it again! Back on track, over the last two months I just wanted to breathe and feel – good, bad and a little lost too. For me, the unknown is really where the magic lies so why do I fe

So, when it comes to fashion I pretty much have always had a sense of who I am and what I like. I sorta always just accepted my eccentricity, my innate desire for vibrancy and the escape that fantasy provides. My eclectic mix of styles, periods, colour and texture follow no real rules just instinct.

Now this is a trend that never ends – print on print is a staple dose of fabulousness – like the perfect blend of mixed masala! Add some spice to your wardrobe – mix your fav prints to recreate some magic that will be sure to make you stand out and might just even grab the attention of your PRINTS Charming – sorry just couldn’t help myself. Now for my print’cess magic: I literally threw on this outfit and then realised that this is a pretty accurate description of me ‘embr

It’s super late; my 7-year old’s snuggled up in my bed, the baby monitor is on and the annoying sleep-inducing music app. is blaring in the background. Mr Big is working the night shift again and I can’t fall off to sleep. This year has been just weird so far; I’ve been sick for all of January, in fact so sick that I decided to call it quits on breastfeeding my little guy after 2.5 years because my body was feeling the toll. To make matters worse my heart is sore because I m
