So, of course you remember my post from last week, where I outed myself as a bit of a clothes and outfit finding ninja, and found my lovely friend and her two sons a selection of hoodies? Yes? Continue reading

Animal prints are *everywhere* this autumn/winter season. They have been for a couple of years, but there seems to have been an explosion of them recently. This can be good (i.e. on kids, it’s mega cute) but this has been bad (i.e. on adult christmas style jumpers – these are Never Good and Not Cute).

friday focus – Abandon Ship
The Scottish referendum has been {ronburgundyvoice} kind of a big deal {\ronburgundyvoice} in this house. We live in Kent and I am Sarf Lahndan born, but my dear husband is a fierce, proud, and born and bred Scotsman (“pure Scotch beef” as he would say….). Continue reading
throwback thursday – going WAY back
this is a *proper* throwback post! I thought I’d feature something from the archives tonight – but not my archives, those of my mum and dad!

C was having fun putting all the pigs in the pen, O was nowhere to be seen (probably climbing on something or someone….), I decided to have some fun of my own with the farmyard animals at play group….

I am a clothes finding ninja. {bows slowly}
As we sat down for coffee a couple of weeks ago, my friend Katie said to me “you like looking at websites for children’s clothes, right?” It was disappointing to hear this from a woman who has become a great friend of mine over the last three years (we paid to be each other’s friend we met at NCT classes) as when she said that, I felt like she DIDN’T KNOW ME AT ALL.

c’est très magique! outfit of the day
Today it’s all about Otis.

give a kid the right pair of shoes…. part 3!
With the third in the series, you’ve always got a LOT to live up to. You can either crash and burn (see: the godfather 3), or you can go out in a blaze of glory (see: toy story 3) and leave people devastated that the emotional rollercoaster of the three parter has come to an end.

friday focus – Donna Wilson for John Lewis
Ugh, it’s Friday. TFIF. This week has been a bit of an up and down one in the LKS house, with stuff that I wouldn’t dare bore you with, otherwise you’d never come back to visit me. And I can’t have that, so I won’t go into any more detail other than to say TFIF and this week is over 🙂
I needed a bit of self love on Thursday afternoon (no sniggering in the back!), plus the kids needed new shoes, so off we went to my happy place bluewater (again). I’m sure any other parent will appreciate the sheer unbridled joy of a free parent and child space right next to one of your favourite shops, so straight into John Lewis we went.
