Lately I’ve become guilty of lazy dressing. I’ve always been a fan of jeans and t-shirts – and why not? It’s a classic combo. But recently it’s become my go to, with a cardigan, obvs, and I don’t wear much else on my days off. I seem to have lost my love for more girly

What I wear as a busy working mother of two
No clothes shopping challenge – how I’m getting on two months in
I’ll be honest. When I started my no shopping challenge back in January, I didn’t actually think I’d make it this far. Over two months have now passed, and I’ve bought no new clothes … I’m amazed at myself! And what’s even more amazing is that apart from one little wobble, I’m not missing shopping
What happened when Matalan Cardiff sent me on a shopping spree…
Last week I received the dream email … did I want to go the the opening of the revamped Matalan Cardiff store for a trolley dash*? Umm, yes please! It put me well and truly out of my comfort zone to meet up with five other bloggers (all fashion and lifestyle bloggers) in the Matalan
What Mama Wore: Yellow, stripes and spots, my new favourite outfit
When you go shopping, do you ever go with the aim of buying a whole new outfit? I don’t, unless I’m shopping for a specific occasion like a wedding, but a couple of weeks ago I accidentally bought myself a complete outfit which is perfect for autumn. It might not have been intentional, and I
What Mama Bought: A load of New Look polka dot prints
You might have guessed by now that I like a bit of shopping. Actually going to the shops is my favourite thing, but you’ll often find me having a little browse online in the evenings. Once the boys have gone to bed there’s not really much else worth doing. The problem is that I’m not
What Mama Wore: A skirt not suitable for dinosaur climbing!
Is it just me, or does anyone else find wearing skirts a bit tricky? Dresses are easy – no struggle to match an outfit together – but skirts require a bit more thought. Still, I’m quite often drawn to them, and have a little collection going on. When I spotted this striped skirt in Primark
What mama might wear … help me choose a wedding outfit!
If you know me, you’ll know that I’m very indecisive. As in very, very indecisive. And when it comes to clothes, I do my very worst decision making. To the point where I ended up ordering five dresses from ASOS for an upcoming wedding. Then the minute I paid for them, I regretted not buying
What mama wore: Cath Kidston puffin dress
I do like a quirky print, and when I saw a Cath Kidston puffin print dress while out shopping a few months ago, I kind of fell in love. I tried to resist it, leaving the shop without trying it on, but I was soon back for another look. I’ve never actually bought a Cath
What mama wore: Lindybop Audrey swing dress Italian print
Do you ever buy an outfit and wish you could wear it to every single occasion you have? That’s how I felt when I tried on this Lindybop Audrey dress. When we were packing for our cruise I decided I’d stick with a few outfits I really liked so I could wear them a few
OOTD: Monochrome stripes and Joules boots of dreams
You know when you find an outfit you really like, and end up wearing it at every opportunity? That’s where I am right now. I feel like I’ve worked out an outfit that can go from soft play to coffee, is comfortable, and I feel reasonably fashionable (with an emphasis on reasonably). And the good
