{Subscription Service Review & Reveal} Lingerie Letters April & May Unboxing

Hi guys! Happy Tuesday! How are you doing with the lock-down? I have mixed feelings about going back into the office from the 1st of June... but I'm glad for now Alex will still be safe at home.  Today I'm sharing the April & May Lingerie Letter. Again as always, this is another stunning pairs - both got send together now that online stores are allowed to ship again. I adore both pairs I got... Honestly, there is nothing more empowering than gorgeous pretty underwear.  So what is Lingerie Letters if you are new here? 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 to get me something too - and who doesn't love pretty underwear? The underwear is all locally made and the products locally sourced too (the underwear looks and feels super soft and delicate - just like you would want it to feel. The website has three options - Thongs

My Autumn Morning Skincare Routine

Hi guys! Happy Friday. How has your week been? My week has been kicking my butt - I'm honestly a little overwhelmed with work and life - but I know a few down days isn't the end of the world.  One of my favourite things in the whole world is skincare - so I'm excited to share my morning Autumn skincare Routine with you guys and chat more about the products I'm using. As always - these are things that are currently working for me. I'm now 34 so one of my main concerns at this stage is preventing ageing faster - it's never a bad thing to look younger than you really are. Avon Micellar Gel Cleanser  I LOVE this gentle yet effective cleanser for the mornings - it doesn't strip my skin or upsets my skin pH balance -and preps it for all the products I will be using. I use a pump of the product - massage it into my skin for 60 seconds then rinse off with luke-warm water. This is one of the few gentle yet cleaning cleansers I have found - perfect to p

{Subscription Service Review & Reveal } April Easter Edition Kids Book Club Book Unboxing

  Hi guys! Happy Thursday. How has your week been? Mine has been a little crazy ... I won't lie trying to work and homeschool at the same time is not for the faint-hearted.  Today I'm sharing our April Easter Themed Kids Bookclub with you. I'm honestly so glad I upgraded our package last year... I wanted to go back to the single book in February but it slipped my mind... and now I 100% know I love the package we are on. I won't be going back to the single book.  We were a little behind on our Kids Book Club books as Alex has other books he reads in between - but with no books being sold in Level 5 in the Lock-down we quickly caught up and we actually ran out of books to read now. Thank goodness Takealot sells books again and Kids Book Club can deliver again in Level 4 - so if you haven't already I would suggest you look into this subscription service for sure. As I mentioned here many times before- Alex does read every night before bedtime - this is a

{Lifestyle} What I've learned during Lock-Down

Hi guys! Happy Thursday. How are you doing? Still, holding up in this Lock-Down time ?? I'll admit that if I'm 100% honest - I was hoping to be back at work again in full force .. but instead, I'm still working from home and homeschooling. Although I am not loving it every day- it has opened my eyes and made me realize some things that I do know that was missing from my daily routine pre-lockdown and I'm sure a few of you might relate. The Importance of Friendships Yes - I do have my best friends that I talk to daily (and still do !) but I love how we talk more about meaningful and silly things now. We have a policy that we do a "Proof of Life" selfie daily - so no matter how meh you feel or look, or if you have a glammed up day or just a day of Netflix and Chill - you have to send a photo of yourself for the day. That and video calls have made the WORLD of difference. Now we talk to each other's pets and other half, pets ... you name it.  I'm
