Kim and Karmen

So I would like to share with you which skincare products I like to use, these are a mix of high end products and regular drugstore buys. Over the years I have used so many different products and it always seems that whenever I find one I really like and decide to stick with it ends up getting discontinued! So I am forced to try lots of different ones until I find a new product I like and then just hope it doesn't get discontinued! I am not really sure where to begin so I will try to go sort of from the start if you like. Exfloiation It is so important to exfoliate your skin and you look instantly better for doing so. I don't exfoliate every day or even every week sometimes as I don't feel my skin particularly needs it. But when I do start to notice a less then smooth texture the absolute best at home exfoliator i have found is the Boots No7 Microdermabrasion facial exfoliator. I was interested in purchasing a groupon for a Microdermabrasion treatment but had heard mix

So, yet again I have failed to do weekly updates as promised about the DVD. I suppose this is for various reasons one o them being I didn't have a set schedule with it so would do it for a few days running and then have other things going on and not be able to do it. The last week or so I have been more dedicated though as my holiday is creeping closer so I have to be! I decided to start doing the WAGs workout DVD that I used to use a few years back to switch it up with the Charlotte Crosby 3 minute belly blitz DVD. And I have to say I really had forgotten how much I enjoyed the WAGs workout DVD. I definitely find it more enjoyable then Charlottes one and even found that my legs were aching more the following day with it. Which I did not expect as the Charlotte one does seem more serious. But I suppose you cannot judge a book or Workout DVD in this case by its cover! What I find with the WAGs workout is that you feel better about yourself and can feel / see a slight change and impr

I am so ashamed that I did not manage to get past 3 weight loss posts, what a total failure! I am not any closer to my goal and infact I am probably further away from it due to christmas and the new year. However we have a holiday booked at the end of May and there is no other option but to lose weight otherwise I am not sure I can even go!! I did join a local gym for a 7 day trial and did attend and did some classes including spinning and boxercise. I did enjoy the spinning and felt like it really worked, the boxercise I couldn't handle the sweaty smelly gloves! But towards the end of the week I found that because I could only go in the evening after 6 or 7 as the gym does not have creche facilities I was simply too worn out from the day and did not have the motivation. 7pm is my switch off time its as though my brain says 'right ok thats enough no more power left!' And I realised that going to a gym that I can only use from 7pm in the evening was not going to work for m

I have been debating with myself whether to do this post or not as it is not strictly relevant to anything at all however I do love handbags and although I only own 2 Louis Vuitton bags (2 and a half I suppose!) I absolutely love them and am very passionate about them. I have wanted for forever to own a designer handbag and especially a Louis Vuitton, I think their bags are timeless classics that will never go out of fashion and are totally versatile that I have no problem in justifying the prices to anyone that is dubious about it!. My first bag is the Louis Vuitton Speedy 40 Bandouliere in Monogram print. I received this as my push present whilst I was pregnant and I was over the moon with it! I choose the larger size of speedy bag as first of all I am a fan of large handbags anyway plus I knew I would be able to also use it as a hand luggage bag or travel bag for short trips. That is also why I decided to go with the bandouliere option (with shoulder straps) and they have defini

Happy New Year to you all, I have been absent for a while mainly due to the recent holidays and finally moving into the place (yay! more on that later).  So we took a trip to Cologne, Germany as a city break/mini holiday and mainly to see the Christmas Markets. This was also Karmens first trip on an aeroplane, I had been so worried about taking her on a plane for the first time and I had all these nightmare scenarios in my head so I was really glad that I had decided on a short flight to get it out of the way and the flight to Cologne is only an hour.  Prior to the trip we had been spotting aeroplanes in the sky and she was very interested so I played on this for when we arrived at the airport and parked the car as when we parked the Aeroplanes fly over the car park very low and of course very loud, I was worried the noise would scare her and had my fingers crossed that it wouldn't set off a negative reaction for the whole journey, however she loved looking at them so closely and w
