I TOOK Elsie to Yorkshire Sculpture Park a week or so ago. It was the perfect place for her to scamp about, run amok and ‘break in’ her amazing new boots. Her ‘Hattie’ monkey boots from Young Soles that are made from the softest navy leather and feature the most stunning contrasting Liberty print shoelaces. I have to say when these luxury boots arrived for Elsie, I couldn’t stop touching the
I’VE been on many holidays in my lifetime. And I’ve seen some truly wonderful places. But I don’t think a holiday has ever touched me quite so deeply as this one – a short two day stay in a beautiful painted gypsy caravan in The Lakes. We stayed in the spectacular caravan at The Blue House Bed & Breakfast in Ayside, a beautiful location just ten minutes or so from
I’LL be honest, I’m not really a fan per se of diggers. But, this isn’t about me because Elsie LOVES them. Like seriously loves them. Every time we drive by one on a motorway or come across one on our travels, her little face beams with joy as she shouts: “Look, Mummy, a digger!” So you can imagine her utter delight when we decided to pay nearby Diggerland Yorkshire a little

A chance to relax, have fun or visit somewhere new. Which is why I’m absolutely delighted to team up with Travelodge to offer one of my lovely readers the chance to WIN a night at
YESTERDAY I was looking through some old holiday photographs and I started to think about all the incredible places that I’ve visited which have a special place in my heart. I’ve been very fortunate to have seen as much of the world as I have (although there’s still so much more I NEED to see!) but when it comes to those places that I will remember fondly forever, I’ve got
OH I do love to be beside the seaside… Especially when I’m dressed comfortably and braced for the Great British weather! You may have noticed that it was a little quiet on Pouting In Heels last week and you would be right, it was, as I enjoyed a week off holidaying with my husband, Elsie and some of my family on the beautiful North Yorkshire coast. Based in a lovely
SOMETIMES, there are moments in life that are just so fabulous, you have to pinch yourself really hard to make sure that it’s actually really happening. That you’re not really dreaming and going to wake up and be back to reality with a hard, cold bump. This night, as you can probably imagine, was one of them.
