Beach Baby Blues: Inspired By
This week I am being inspired by the ocean. The beachy baby blues that make me long for summer days, the ocean and the way that salt water makes my hair less frizzy and more accidentally cool. Maybe it’s the cold days, the grey rainy week, but all I could think about as I prepared…

A House Update: Suger’s Place
It’s been longer than we expected, after the first house we were hoping to purchase fell over weeks and weeks into the contract period. With money already spent and time running out, we went back to the market looking for a house that met our criteria, that we both loved. We found that house. We found THE…

Long torso problems… One word, bodysuit.
Oh man, long torso problems. Raise your hand if you’re with me. Bodysuits, overalls, swimsuits, jumpsuits and onesies are a minefield of camel toes and garment straining proportions. It’s the curse of the long torso-ed folk. But if you’re determined, like me, you do your best to circumvent this complication and get on with things.…

Why I don’t enter the “Comment Wars” but probably should…
Ahhh comment wars. You big bad horrible things. Not a day goes by where I don’t cautiously open a comment section only to have my fears realised. Hateful, hurtful and plain old bigoted comments fill the stream. Not on my blog, thank goodness, you people rock. But on places like Facebook, YouTube and Instagram. For…

Heya folks, long time no blog. What can I say, internet is still ridiculously CRAP around these parts. Right to your local Member folks, this girl needs interwebs! But hang on, this is a post about the little black dress. The casual little black dress and how I dress it up when I need something…

The saga of the itty bitty teeny weeny bed
Welcome my friends to a tale of woe. A story so in need of telling that I couldn’t wait any longer to offload it into this here screen. This, my bloggy friends, is the saga of the itty bitty teeny weeny bed. When we moved into my sister’s guest bedroom, we left the majority of…
