Why I love thrifting (and 8 tips for doing it well)

Posted on January 4, 2023January 4, 2023 By Becky

  As someone who previously owned an Etsy store stocking vintage and mid century homeware, it probably won’t come as a surprise to anyone that I LOVE thrifting! Probably for the last 15 years or so I’ve been a bit of magpie when it comes to all things vintage, in…

My Perfect Weekend Rituals

Posted on December 10, 2021October 3, 2024 By Becky

I used to think weekends had changed irrecoverably when Freddie was a baby- as an early riser there were no more long lie ins, plus no more lengthy Saturday pub sessions, and no more all day Sunday sofa sessions. Whilst all that is true, and of course your life changes…

2019 – A year of ‘mixing it up’

Posted on January 18, 2019 By Becky

Hey guys, how are you? Just a short post here, more of a mini mind dump, and I’d be interested to hear afterwards if anyone is following a similar theme in 2019! End of December/beginning of January is usually the time when many people starting writing down, or sharing their…

Being confident in a sea of online noise

Posted on July 10, 2018 By Becky

I was dicking around on Twitter the other night (searching for extremely highbrow Love Island chat in case you were wondering), and inevitably got lost down a rabbit hole on random accounts, many of whom were, or at least appeared to be, the accounts of people, mostly women, interesting women…

Does perfectionism hold you back?

Posted on May 10, 2018August 13, 2021 By Becky

It’s ironic that I’ve been sitting on this post to write for ages, yet haven’t go going with it because I’ve wanted to be in the right frame of mind and make it a decent one…. Today I’m going to talk about perfectionism and how I’ve found it can hold…

Posted on March 1, 2018March 1, 2018 By Becky

Last weekend and Monday of this week sucked. On Saturday I felt tired and out of sorts for no good reason whilst alone with all 3 children for the best part of the day, as Adam was playing in a football tournament. Arlo was poorly, resulting in me umming and…

Our Daily Breakfast Routine

Posted on September 21, 2017August 13, 2021 By Becky

As cheesy as it sounds, I’m a bit believer in the old saying that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I think it gets your brain working, and obviously gives you energy for get-up-and-go for the day ahead. I think that even if you’re not someone who…
