Let’s talk about getting, having and keeping the things you want in life and about timing and things working out. About the times when you are trying hard and getting nowhere. Sometimes you can be pushing hard to get something you want, and it’s just not the time or the place for it to happen.…

Where to buy plus size bras that don’t suck
Where to buy plus size bras that don’t suck is a guide born from a reader question. Or as I like to call them, a “lord help me, where the freaking hell do they keep the good stuff” shout out. With bras on her mind, the most recent inquiry came via Tess. She lamented the…

Quiet time.
In case you missed the sappy good bye Instagrams, Mr Suger is away at the moment. He’s having a great Aussie adventure of epic proportions fishing in the Northern Territory.

Not every outfit has to be all glam hair and makeup, crazy heels and corsets as tops (cough cough). Sometimes the way you feel most confident and in control is when you nail the perfect casual outfit. Sneakers, dress, jacket. Done. Well that’s how it works for me. This outfit is on high rotation in…

Working Harder vs. Working Smarter
Let’s talk working harder vs. working smarter and the way I had a tendency to work hard but not smart. Long hours, lots of running around like a headless chook and a massive failure to delegate.

When the new season 17 Sundays goodness arrived on my doorstep I was the happiest packer there ever was. The team had supplied me with loads of new stuff for the ProBlogger conference I was attending and it arrived in the nick of time. I gave them all a quick wash (remind me to tell…
