I very rarely write about motherhood these days. Largely because this blog’s purpose was to be a safe space to explore my own interests and discover who I am beyond…

A 40-something mum to teens on a quest to find the 'me' who got a little lost amongst the school run mayhem. With a love for fashion, interiors and trying to get the very best out of life, I'm not ready to give up yet!

Instagram post 2177653168493974309_41401028 We can focus on the rain we’ve had this week (too much!) or we can focus on the glimmers of sunshine ☀️. I know which I’m going for. I won’t spell out the (not so) hidden metaphor because I know you’re all intelligent human beings who can work it out for yourselves 😉. I’m off to see Russell Brand this afternoon so will keep you posted as to how that works out! Have a good Friday one and all. #101thingsthatmakemesmile #dogsofinstagram #thegreatoutdoors #littleflashesofdelight #autumnsunshine #littlelovescustomcrafts
Instagram post 2176226103886504130_41401028 “Nothing beats kindness” said the horse. “It sits quietly beyond all things.” Thank you for putting it so beautifully @charliemackesy. A simple act of kindness replaces the need for words. We could all do with receiving more, we could all do with giving more. Thank you @belizmat and @nicobe2 for these gorgeous birthday gifts - two of the kindest people I know. #worldkindnessday #charliemackesy #theboythemolethefoxandthehorse #101thingsthatmakemesmile #littleloves #thegoodgram
Instagram post 2175725196514087601_41401028 Sausage dogs and pom poms - gotta find some good in the grey days that we are experiencing at the moment. Today started off so well with sunshine and blue skies but as soon as we set out for our dog 🐕 walk, the heavens opened again. Sod’s law eh? If you fancy a nosey at some of my latest Little Loves then there’s a new blog post link in my bio. If not, I love you anyway! Tell me your top tips for getting through the dreary days... #midlifematters #snugglyjumpers #littleloves #autumnfashion #midlifefashion #midlifeblogger #over40fashion #40plusfashion #mumstyle
Instagram post 2171752167693880859_41401028 Finally 18! Ever the fashionista (see photo 4 for evidence). It’s been a mixture of pleasure and pain parenting this one but she’s one of a kind who knows her own mind and I love ❤️ her to bits. Happy birthday to my second-born and mini-me. I’m so proud of you and can’t wait to watch the rest of your life unfold. Adulthood starts here (so does doing your own washing 🤣😜). #Turning18 #18thbirthday #daughterlove #celebration #101thingsthatmakemesmile
Instagram post 2170580137858714570_41401028 I think this was the only vaguely decent shot of me in Paris so despite looking like I’ve not slept in 3 years, it’s going on the grid. Does anyone else struggle to sleep when in a strange bed? The older I get, the worse I am. In 3 nights, I probably slept around 12 hours. If it wasn’t a strange light shining from a piece of electrical equipment, it was the noisy street. Is this normal at my age? Is it the menopause?! I’m seriously starting to consider whether I should ever venture away from home again! What a view though, hey? This is at the top of Galerie Lafayette, which is simply the most beautiful department store that I’ve ever seen. There’s also a glass viewing platform inside the building but there was no way you’d get me on that (heights are not my friend). #galerielafayetteparis #midlifematters #menopausesymptoms #101thingsthatmakemesmile #bonvoyage #aviewfromabove #paris
