A Few Of My Favourite Things This Week:
Firstly, Family Time. Spending time with my family. So good. Even if it just going to see my mum or mother in law. Trying to spend as much time with my children as they are all growing up so quickly.
Spending quality family time, sharing laughter and making memories, there’s nothing better than being with the ones I love.
The birds are starting to leave the nest later this year too! (or so to speak). So lots more quality time planned.

Secondly, Days Out. Just getting out and about is good for the mind. We don’t go far or out much because of work but when we do it feels great getting out.
We try to stay outdoors so timing a day off and no rain is hard work! How beautiful is it here in Wollaton Hall? Stunning. I love to visit here whenever we can.
I cherish days out, exploring new places, enjoying fresh air, and creating unforgettable experiences.

Thirdly, Taking Photos:
I love taking photos of anything and everything. A flower here, a bee there. Not forgetting 100’s of selfies!! Food, shoes running, you name it!!
Capturing special moments through photography is my passion, every picture tells a story and holds a memory.
Fourthly, Pretty Clothes. Pretty clothes make me feel good. I adore this Purple Jumper And Under The Sea Skirt Outfit. Not forgetting my Vintage Afternoon Tea Dresses.
I love wearing pretty clothes that make me feel confident, stylish, and ready for any occasion.

Last But Not Least, Comfy Shoes:
Love comfy shoes and trainers when we go out walking. Loving my new Nike Women’s Air Force 1 Shadow white and lemon swoosh trainer that my husband treated me to.
I can walk for miles in these. So they are good to look at and practical!! Win, win.
Would you wear these Nike Women’s Air Force 1’s with a skirt or dress on a day out walking, too?
Nothing beats the feeling of comfy shoes, perfect for long walks, fun adventures, and all-day comfort.
What I Wore: Jumper: Primark | Under The Sea Skirt: Lindy Bop | Trainers: Nike Women’s Air Force 1 Shadow

Me, seriously!? That’s quite good, actually! Me, Seriously!?
The minute he banged his head on the dinosaurs month and I managed to control my laughter well!? Well Almost! Bang Your Head?

Also A Few More Of My Favourite Things.
A warm cup of tea on a chilly evening envelops me in its soothing embrace, offering solace and a moment of tranquility amidst the chaos of life.
The vibrant hues of a sunset painting the sky in hues of orange and pink never fail to leave me in awe of the beauty of nature’s canvas.
And finally, the laughter of loved ones echoing through the air creates a symphony of happiness that resonates deep within my soul. Reminding me of the precious connections that make life truly extraordinary.

1950s Fashion:
1950s Fashion. Transform yourself into the glamorous 1950s with sophisticated, elegant clothing. The era embraces classic elegance with everything from fitted suits and kitten heels to big skirts and tight waists.
Accept the appeal of retro charm, where pearls, poodle skirts, and polished ensembles characterise a significant era in the history of fashion.
