I've recieved a distress message from Melissa and her bump. She's struggling not to feel frumpy now her bumps expanding so I've scoured the stores and come up with some fab pieces!

















Dresses
A maxi-dress is a key piece in any woman's wardrobe and New Look has the answer for any bump rocker...


Maternity Jersey Maxi Dress - New Look £19.99

Earlier this year we were sent some more fabulous Duplo products to review as part of the Duplo Blogger Programme, here's how we got on...

DUPLO 6785: Creative Cakes


Wow, what can I say about this set - we absolutely LOVE it!

Little E (20mths) was immediately drawn to the colours, she loves Duplo and she loves anything pink.

I produced the set as a distraction in the middle of a toddler

Sometimes life can be tough, sometimes everything just seems to go wrong - you feel like everything's against you and there's no way out. The past few months have been really tough and the death of my wonderful Grandad has hit me hard.

Usually in times of sadness I turn here, to my blog, just to get it all out but for some reason I just wanted block everything out, I didn't want to come here

It is with a very sad heart that I have to tell you all that my Grandad passed away yesterday. He was 94 years old but in all honesty it has come as a massive shock. Until last year he was still driving and he worked until the grand old age of 84.

It's only a matter of time before the snow arrives so when I was asked to review these amazing Hi-Tec St. Moritz Snow Boots I jumped at the chance. I fell in love with them the minute I saw them. When they finally arrived I was like a child on Christmas Day. I just think they are stunning - I even used up half my memory card taking pictures of them...
