A couple of months ago I was at a spring summer preview for Groupe Zannier; it was here that I discovered my new favourite brand of children’s clothes – Lili Gaufrette. I have never looked at a collection of clothes and loved every single piece for my children. I lost half my time at the event piecing together little shorts and skirts with pretty blouses and imagining my daughters in them. Then almost over night the temperature dropped and my attention turned to some cosy winter wear; new coats and boots arrived from Lili Gaufrette and I officially had the most trendy…
Ever since we went to the BFG premier back in the summer the girls have had BFG fever, they can often be found stomping about playing giants or having Frobscottle tea parties with the queen! When we arrived home one day to a big box of BFG goodies to celebrate the release of the DVD excitement levels reached an all time high.

We’ve been to Longleat once before, it was when they were in the process of setting it all up since seeing that I have always been intrigued to go back and see it finished. I knew it was going to be pretty busy as tickets were sold out for the day, it was advised to leave extra time for…

Of corse they have pointed at copious amounts of crap on the tv declaring they desperately need it but I hate buying for the sake of buying, I want to get them things that not only will they love and enjoy but that I wont hate the sight of in two weeks.
