Tested and loved – 3 beauty products for new mums

Beauty  |  Ashford

When you’re a mum, you’re lucky to even get in the shower, let alone moisturize your skin daily, apply make-up or blow-dry your hair. So if you’re looking for some products that’ll shave your beauty routine by half, keep reading!
A newborn and a hectic schedule is no excuse to cut your ties with a proper skincare routine, so next time when you’re short on time, either simplify your steps or take my example and use multitasking skincare products. I always reach for a day cream that’s formulated with SPF so that I can cut a step (and an additional product) out of my daily skincare routine.

Designing our dream kitchen

Interiors  |  Ashford

Choosing a new kitchen is such an exciting project, but also usually a major investment. When my husband and I bought this house over two years ago, we knew that we needed to extend the kitchen so we could have a bigger space.
I started looking on Pinterest (follow me here) mainly, scrolling through and pinning my favourite styles. We live in Kent, so we wanted to bring a touch of the country to our kitchen.

5 Summer shoes you really need in your wardrobe

Fashion  |  Ashford

With Summer just around the corner, what better excuse to treat yourself to a new pair of shoes (or five)? I won’t be surprised if you end up overspending in the Selfridges Shoe Preview – one of the biggest fashion retailers, Selfridges boasts hundreds of shoe brands including Valentino, Stella McCartney or more affordable options like Aldo and Office.
For a limited time only (ends on 1st June), you have 30% off selected designer shoes with the code SHOES30 at checkout. I particularly love that Selfridges offers a complimentary Click and Collect service – you can place your order before 10PM and collect it the following day from your chosen Selfridges store free of charge.

Returning to work after having a baby

Fashion  |  Ashford

Returning to work after having a baby can be confusing and it gets even more confusing and stressful if like me, you’re self-employed and you don’t have anyone to answer to, but yourself. You see, for self-employed people and small business owners, maternity leave is often not an option.
When I got pregnant, I was adamant that I would carry on working over my maternity period, but the truth is towards the end of my pregnancy my brain wasn’t in a place where I could continue pitching for work and new clients. I was technically on maternity leave but in some ways, I never left because I was still creating content for my social media platforms (mainly Instagram), negotiating contracts, replying to emails, etc.
