Pink & Purple Dots

Hi guys! Happy Tuesday! How was your weekend ?? Last month I told you about getting a fun book subscription for Alex and reviewed our June Book HERE, and I want to share with you guys the July Book and Activity book we got.  I have to admit - with all Alex's Eisteddodd activities last week, we haven't touched this book since it arrived as we were practising non-stop - but now he can finally dig into the book and enjoy it.  As I mentioned there - Alex does read every night before bedtime - this is a strong rule we stick to every night. He loves reading and he often walks around with a fact book or Encyclopedia in his hand reading everyone facts about volcanoes, dinosaurs or the human body.  I love that Kids Book Club send us a cute book, an activity book and a cute bag every month. These bags are awesome if you go shopping to throw in your bag and let the kids help out packing groceries.  So more about the service again if you missed it last time : We picked

Hi guys! Happy Monday. How has your weekend been? The other day I saw a meme on Instagram saying adulting is saying "it will be calmer from next week" over and over again until you die. That's how I feel currently. Work is insanely busy (which is good ! ) and Alex has a week filled with Eisteddfod (which he has been practising his heart out for the last few weeks ) but hopefully, things will be a bit calmer after that.

I have ordered a few past pairs from them in the past (which I love ) and decided to treat myself to a pretty pair getting delivered to me monthly. Afterall - life is too short not to have pretty underwear.   So what is Lingerie Letters? It's a Proudly South African based company that sends you a pretty pair of underwear delivered to your door monthly. Since I decided to treat Alex to a book subscription I wanted

Hi guys! Happy Friday - and also Happy July. July is going to be another super busy month for me- work is insanely busy (which is always good !) and Alex has a million activities this month too.  Today I'm sharing with you my thoughts on Princess Aurora 9 Piece Eyeshadow Palette  from Glamore Cosmetics. I have raved about them hundreds on times on the blog as well as my Instagram (and I have some lip-glosses and foundation review from this online store to share with you guys soon too ).   Gael was kind enough to send me this palette as a surprise for my birthday - and honestly, while I didn't feel like playing with make-up then - now it's a palette I reach for on a weekly basis. This stunning palette consists of three shimmer shades (which all look WOW and 6 super soft blend-able matte shades) The shadows are all extremely pigmented - I mean WOW! I can apply these on my lids around 5 in the morning and before bedtime (around 9/10 on my early nights) these shadows
