The last three months that I’ve been writing for City Chic have gone by so fast and I realised a common know truth first hand, if I do what I love, it wont ever feel like work and boy, do I love it. I’ve connected with so many people and received so many touching emails [...]

Protect your Peepers

12:30PM | January 28, 2011 | 21 comments

As I mentioned in the post below, I’m getting desperate for a pair of sunglasses. Last night whilst I was at Castle Towers I wandered into a store and these babies caught my eye. Now usually my sunnies are of the $30 variety but a few years ago I splashed out and bought a $70 [...]

5 Minute Fashion

Imagine you have the chance to win your entire online shopping cart but you only had 5 minutes to fill it. Where would you shop? What would you buy? How quick could you be? I’m still yet to purchase any clothing from ASOS but I window shop there all the time and I thought this [...]

Ugly Dress + Scissors = Cute Top

06:00AM | January 24, 2011 | 22 comments

I bought this dress from Best & Less, it’s in the Lily & Lou range, I bought it on clearance for a few dollars. I really liked the floral pattern and the ultra light cotton fabric was so soft. The large scoop neckline is flattering on me and I even loved the sleeves but after [...]

Secret Women’s Business

08:43PM | January 22, 2011 | 15 comments

Last week I had to go an see my gynecologist. It seems most women involuntarily flinch when they hear the words “Pap Smear” or “Gyno”. I mean who could blame us, it’s never a pleasant experience and definitely not something to write home to your parents about but it IS something we should all be [...]

Meat Eater

05:00AM | January 18, 2011 | 3 comments

Sponsored by Nuffnang & MLA As most of you know we started Aidan on solids early, around 5 months and it worked out well. We wanted him to try everything and Steve and I agreed that we’d make sure anything we ate, was something that he could eat too. This totally changed our diet for [...]

Need for a Nanny

10:42AM | January 17, 2011 | 7 comments

{image} I never thought I’d be looking for a nanny. Not once did it ever come up in conversation with Steve before we had Aidan, neither did the idea of putting our “kids” into childcare, it just wasn’t for us. I planned to stay home and Steve planned to work. Over the last six months [...]

Cranky Face

05:00AM | January 15, 2011 | 6 comments

I’ve posted a lot of adorable photos of Aidan. He’s always smiling, showing off a cheeky grin and his eyes are all sparkly… but today, today I wanted to give you a glimpse of his cranky face. The dude is only small but he knows how to throw a tantrum like a fully certified diva… [...]

Stack ‘em Up

Aidan and I spend a lot of time playing, working on his motor skills and some wicked belly laughs. Even though my to-do list seems to be multiplying by the millisecond, it’s time with my son I wouldn’t trade for anything. With Steve having so much time off over Christmas he’s been able to see [...]

Totally Floored

Who knew the hunt for a swimsuit and prancing about in next to nothing, showing off my chubby bits would have such an effect on people! The response to Embrace Your Body has been monumentally positive and shared right across the globe, the stats are truly staggering. Never in my dreams did I think such [...]

Boy VS Mumma

I’ve been working a lot lately, gearing up for the next few months of craziness, trying to be as prepared as possible. I try not to work when Aidan’s awake, I like our time together to be proactive, to learn new things and go to new places but there are some days when laundry beckons [...]

Embrace Your Body

08:34PM | January 7, 2011 | 76 comments

I’ve been debating this post for well over a week now but I’m determined to do it… mainly for myself. I’ve been looking for swimmers for the last couple of months. I’ve stalked plus size forums and blogs for recommendations but nothing really seemed like me and the pieces that did were usually over $200 [...]

Shootsac

It arrived!!! While Shootsac had a pretty good deal on over the holidays I snapped up one of my very own. I didn’t get a fancy cover as there were none that really “spoke” to me but they release new ones every few months or so. It’s not an everyday bag, well not while I [...]

Psychic

I think I must be slightly psychic or just really really lucky that Pantone’s Colour of the Year is Honeysuckle, a rich pink that I adore. Although I’m not usually a pink kind of girl I do love wearing it and I get lots of compliments when I do. I know a lot of the [...]

Couch Shopping with a Toddler

09:20AM | January 5, 2011 | 5 comments

Yesterday Steve and I bundled Aidan into the car and headed off to King Furniture at their Castle Hill showroom. By the time we got there we only had half an hour to potter around and plonk out butts on everything. Aidan was a terror and it surprised me, he’s usually really good while we’re [...]

Baby No More

I wanted to take you on a little tour of Aidan’s room today, just a brief run through of the little changes we’ve made to his space. The first thing you notice is the safety gate, completely necessary now that Aidan’s moved to the toddler bed. Every time his room evolves I give myself a [...]
