[AD – there are some affiliate links in this blogpost] Hello! And welcome back! Another two weeks in-between blog posts seems to have become habit… apologies: I can only assure you that the stresses and struggles which come from looking after elderly olds, and a young family don’t just vanish overnight; illnesses seem to linger; free time is spent ferrying the olds around, or visiting…
[AD – this blogpost contains 50% affiliate links] Hello, And welcome back to another Sunday 7, after a little Easter break and an unintentional second Sunday off, but dutiful daughter…erm… duties called. The warm weather over the Easter weekend gave us a little taster of the ‘just chuck on your dress & sandals weather’ of which, there is hopefully more of, on the way. Anyway… all that sun &…
[AD – some (about half) affiliate links have been used in this blogpost.] Hello, How’s your week been? Aside from the inevitable minor dramas which, when living in England, go hand-in-hand with a wee dusting of snow… not much going on here at Chez Threads this past week. We may have finally, finally… like… f.i.n.a.l.l.y. said goodbye to January, but the ‘hangover’ of fatigue from what…
[AD: affiliate links have been used in this blogpost; although to date, I am still approximately $9,999,947 shy of buying that retirement home in the Caribbean I have my eye on.] … Hello, How are you all doing on this fine, freezing cold, 97th day of January…?! It sure is the longest month, E.V.E.R. And yet… we are almost there guys. Almost. I’ve decided to do…
Hello! Welcome back to a Sunday 7! Getting festive this week, and taking a look at Christmas Jumpers. It’s Christmas Jumper day on December 14th… according to Save the Children but, in order to make the most of your investment, I think it’s OK to wear your festive knit or sweatshirt anytime from now, right through January… … and in fact, if you choose wisely, and go…
Hello, And welcome to a normal, non-ranty, non-meltdown, Sunday 7! I received a great many comments (mainly over on my Instagram post, as well as a fair few direct messages and a couple of comments on the blog) after last week’s ‘to blog or not’ given I am a guilty party in apparently ‘promoting’ fast fashion brands via this blog. More on that at the end. Back…
Hello! I’ve been kind of stuck in a rut with these Sunday 7 blogposts: new in stuff *is* finally creeping into stores / on their websites, but given the heatwave, it’s been kind of hard to even *think* about clothing for cooler weather. Until today. A temporary drop in temperatures, bit of wind and rain… and I’m right back on it! So… in a “I…
Hello! So I’ve had a couple of weeks off from the blog, just stuff like being on holiday and spending time with my family kind of took over. Which is never a bad thing. Anyway, I’m back, and today I’m talking about all-in-one’s of the dungaree/ jumpsuit / playsuit variety. Not everyone’s cuppa, I know… but I really rather love them, particularly in the warmer…
Hello, and welcome to an Easter Sunday 7! Not that there’s anything Easter-y about this post, it just happens to be Easter… which means we’re in April already! So, what have I got in store for you today? Colour. At this time of year… every year… I start craving some colour in my wardrobe. I’m not the most daring when it comes to wearing prints…
So… it’s been a while since I did an actual mid-week “review” post of things any of my own recent purchases. The timing of my somewhat ”western” themed Topshop order & delivery wasn’t ideal for blogging because of a fortnight’s work commitments… …or in other words, after taking my youngest to 2 birthday parties on Sunday (the sort where you have to stay & wait with them: why???) I got home…
