If there is one thing that immediately puts me in the mood for Autumn, it's when the shops start stocking boots. Unfortunately me this year I've had to hand on until my pregnant swollen feet reduced back to size to get in on any of the Autumn boot action. I was still in flip flops until late October and boy were my tootsies cold. Thankfully I have normal sized feet again which meant I could fulfil my love of boot shopping with an Ego Official order.

Missguided Babe Power Perfume
Earlier this year, Missguided launched Babe Power and my ears pricked up. When I think Missguided, I don't think perfume so I always found this launch a bit odd but that didn't stop me wanting to know everything about it and what it smelt like. With Christmas lurking and Babe Power now available in a gift set with a fluffy pink pom pom, well, it was time to try it out.

Are you ready to Glitter Flip?
Tis the season to be glittery and all that so if you love a bit of sparkle than you need Ciaté Glitter Flip in your arsenal. The lipsticks launched much to everyone's excitement as the first of their kind, glitter lipsticks that apply as a metallic matte before switching to a multi dimensional glitter finish at the smack of your lips, literally. Gimmick or not?

Follow Moz the Monster's Story with Google Home
We've spent the last few weeks, waiting in anticipation for this years John Lewis Christmas advert and on 10th November, Moz the Monster entered our lives. Some loved it, some thought it was a bit naff but I thought Moz was pretty cute and I couldn't wait to get my hands on the book for Joshua.

The Clarins Everlasting Cushion Foundation
Cushion foundations have fast become the latest beauty discovery from Korea to make its way to the west and some of our favourite brands have launched their own versions in the last year. The latest one I've been trying out is the Clarins Everlasting Cushion Foundation which was released in September and with my changing skin towards the end of my pregnancy, it was the perfect time to try it.

Fragrance Gifting made Easy
The shops are filling up with tinsel and mince pies, the smell of cinnamon is in the air and it's almost time for the big guy to find his way down the chimney so it can only mean the festive season is fast approaching! Christmas always means a new fragrance for me and I love searching Fragrance Direct for some bargains to put under the tree.

The Mother Box
Becoming a mother is many things, amazing, incredible, overwhelming and scary. Life changes in an instance and you forget about yourself very quickly once you have a tiny human needing all your attention. The Mother Box is a pregnancy and birth care box designed by a midwife and a doula to remind you that, you're just as important and need some tender and loving care too.

When Kat Von D landed on our shores last year, I rushed to try the range and firmly fell for the liquid lipsticks so here are three shades you need if you're partial to a dark lip!

Thoughts of a New Parent
I fancied a chat so while I have a sleeping newborn in my lap I thought I'd get typing and see what came out. We've been keeping our tiny human alive for almost three weeks now. Three weeks that have whizzed by and completely turned our lives upside down...for the better. We may be getting less sleep, not getting out the house as quick as we'd like or always eating hot meals but right now, we're really content.
