SELF CARE TIPS FOR 2024

 Self-care isn’t about just finding ways to relax. It’s about taking care of yourself mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually and socially.

THE UNEXPECTED RED THEORY - WHAT IT IS AND HOW TO GET THE LOOK

The "unexpected red theory" was coined by TikTok creator and interior designer Taylor Migliazzo Simon. She defines it as "adding anything red, big or small, to a room where it doesn't match at all - and it automatically looks better."

BABY MUST HAVES | MY LIST OF ESSENTIALS

 I have been clearing out a lot of our stuff over the past week. Having three children, you most definitely accumulate a lot of stuff and my god is it hard to get rid of. Does anyone else have the baby blues when they look at the children’s old clothes or teddies?. I have three daughters so it’s all pink tiny dresses and if anything makes me think about having another little one it’s definitely those dresses.
