If you’ve been following my pregnancy diary posts, then you will probably know that I opted for an elective caesarean section for the birth of my first child Jack. I had a low lying placenta throughout my whole pregnancy, and at my 36 week scan it had still only moved 13mm away from the opening of the…
A couple of weeks ago I talked about the important role that a cleanser plays in your skincare routine, and I shared my thoughts on the Snowberry Gentle Cleanse and Tone cleanser that I’ve been using as part of my morning skincare routine. Today I wanted to share my thoughts on another Snowberry Cleanser, the So Soft…
If you’ve been following along with my fashion content for a while, then chances are you’ve seen my Kate of Arcadia bag pop up a million times on my blog. I purchased the Manx bag about three or four years ago and have used it everyday since. It’s hands down my favourite bag, and is the perfect…
If there is one skincare item I religiously use twice a day, it is a cleanser. My skin just never feels clean unless I’ve cleansed after my morning shower and just before I go to bed. No matter what I’m doing or how tired I am, I will always use a cleanser twice daily. It’s funny though,…
When it comes to writing about beauty, face masks are still my favourite thing to review and try. I’m a bit of an avid face mask collector, and over the years I have literally tried hundreds of different masks! As I’ve become more particular about the brands and products I use, I’ve discovered which masks work best…
Our little man is here! As I sit here typing this, he’s been with us for over two weeks now (seriously where has the time gone?!) and this is actually the first chance I’ve had to jump on the computer. The weeks have gone so fast already, and I really see how other Mum’s tell you to…
I can’t believe week 36 was my last full week of being pregnant! It feels like such a long time ago we found out, but at the same time it really feels like it’s flown…. especially the third trimester! If you missed my last post, baby boy is being born via C-section at 37 weeks, so while…
These days, most kids have a social media footprint by the time they reach one…. one day that is. Many parents are quick to plaster pictures of their baby all over social media and blogs the moment it’s born, and while of course this is totally their decision and I respect that wholeheartedly, I’ve decided it’s not…
This was my second week in Dunedin. This week seemed to kick off with a lot of Braxton Hicks contractions, which is slightly daunting as I’m terrified I won’t be able to tell the difference between BH and proper contractions (although everyone has told me I will DEFINITELY know!) Braxton Hicks are funny, my belly just gets…
Today’s post is all about how you can hide a baby bump. Okay, you’re probably thinking, “why on earth would you want to hide a baby bump?!”. But the truth is that for many women they want to be able to keep their secret a little longer, or perhaps they don’t feel 100% comfortable with how their…
