Clothes shopping when pregnant is one of the most disheartening experiences I have experienced so I made a conscious decision to give up when I entered my third trimester – I have completely avoided the shops since. Knowing I was feeling a little upset by my growing waistline (and probably a lot of hormones), my husband decided to book a surprise trip to London to go shoe shopping at my favourite store, Chanel. I had been admiring the Chanel 2016…
I’m looking forward to visiting Jesmond Dene House for afternoon tea today and have picked out some nice summer fashion accessories to complement my (limited) maternity wardrobe. We have a private dining area booked in this beautiful country house and with the baby due in less than a month I’m really looking forward to a nice afternoon and catch up with friends and family.

That said, I am now planning to get back into full swing of blogging again and have been busy lining up some exciting new posts. So, why the radio silence!? In addition to being very busy with work, buying a new home in Spain and making…
On Sunday I made a trip to the Edinburgh Christmas Markets and I would highly recommend a visit to anyone who is looking for an day or evening away. It’s been a hectic few months and I managed to talk my husband into taking a day off work so we could go away for a night. We decided on Edinburgh as we hadn’t visited for a very long time – we certainly weren’t disappointed. We decided to get the train…
