Something I want to focus on more this year on my blog is fashion and beauty posts. I have always loved all things beauty and fashion and after having kids I lost that love and lost me. Its the cliche thing of losing yourself and your identity when you have kids. I used to be a size 6, face of makeup with perfect eyeliner flicks and ALWAYS in the latest trends. I worked for TOPSHOP and French Connection and then I had kids and my priorities changed.
For Christmas Iris got the cutest leather jacket off my Mum and my step Dad and It was the perfect opportunity to get some Mama and Me twinning and to rock the leather jacket look teamed with leggings, chucks and stripes.
I have twinned with Lucas for so long with our yellow jackets and to finally be able to do it with my Daughter was amazing. Iris is such a sass-pot with a swagger walk and the funniest little "Hiya."

Being a Mama has so many moments that make me proud, happy and lucky. "Twinning" with my children makes me feel so lucky and it's something ever so small to most but to me it makes me feel lucky to have these adorable littles that I get to match.
Here's to 2018 and finding myself and finally showing my face more on my blog. I am looking forward to some different posts and hopefully seeing a chance for my little blog!
