Spotted! I bloody love my cat mug

I Bloody Love My Cat Mug. And I do – bloody love it, that is. Isn’t it great? Just guaranteed to make you smile smugly, and reach for a stroke of a softly arched back while you wait for the kettle to boil (or at least not curse too loudly as you trip over the fur bomb winding around your feet whilst your sleep head tries to co-ordinate the kettle and the tap first thing in the morning). It even works on me – despite...

Spotted! Beautiful Girls Summer Dress with 20% off!

Oh SUCh a pretty dress! I love this – perfect for summer parties and weddings, the gentle floral pattern is delicately pretty without being too overtly shouty-girlie that my daughter would turn her nose up. The delicate lilacs and blues of the flowers, coupled with with the soft cream background and gentle yellow of the butterflies… just a totally dreamy combination. I find you really can’t go wrong with butterflies,...

Spotted! Achingly pretty vintage melamine picnic plates!

I LOVE eating outside in the warmer weather, but in the past melamine picnic plates have been less-than-inspiring. But I just spotted this over on John Lewis. Isn’t it SO pretty? That vintage green, that soft floral meadow impression of a design… and it’s melamine, so utterly perfect for summer eating in the garden, or whisking out for impromptu picnics. This is actually the contrasting side plate in the Croft...

Lego Dimensions game is coming… *excited face*

I’m sure you’ve guessed by now, but there was no way lego were going to miss out on the new genre of ‘toys to life’ games started with Skylanders (and joined rapidly by Disney with their Infinity game, and Nintendo’s Amiibo). Actually I love the concept – the joining of a physical toy interactively into a pretty traditional video game is a genius one – blurring the lines between the two....

Spotted! Quirky Hare doormat (and there’s cats too!)

A Hare Doormat! Oh me oh my, it’s a thing of beauty. It’s a doormat – with HARES on! Such pretty hares, too… (Hares are the new Owls… you knew that, right?) The quirky design is in all the shades of spring – I just love it. And so darn practical too! Have you seen Turtle Mats yet? If not, and in your house you have children, dogs, a gardener or anyone whoever steps outside… you NEED one....

Trollbeads. Perfect. #EasterGiftGuide

I have had a bit of a thing for Trollbeads for quite a while now. I have always hated traditional charm bracelets – I love their sentiment, and their personality… but ‘charms’? *shudder* Trollbeads retain all that individuality and personal meaning… and manage to be so darn pretty too. Last week a special edition totally caught my eye – and I told them so, sighing jealously at its prettiness. So it...
