What to wear to a Garden Centre - Chic & Stylish Linkup.

Hello and welcome to Mummabstylish. 

How are you all on the 2nd July?

I can’t believe how fast this year is going. I think it’s because I’m so busy with wedding planning, Airbnb work and going to the gym along with family life. It’s never a boring day at Mummabstylish’s house!

David is back from the stag weekend in Tenerife. They all had a good time and everything went smoothly - phew. It’ll soon be the hens turn, woohoo! We’re visiting Salou in Spain, and I’m getting very excited now. The outfits are coming together and I plan to add each one to a packing cube so I’ll know exactly where they are in the case. I’ll be sharing a case, so it’ll make life easier for whoever gets the short straw! ( I like to take a lot with me. 😬)

Style not Age show how to Belt Up!

Hello, nice to have you follow along. 

Hope you’ve had a super weekend. 

Hasn’t the weather been strange.  We’ve had sleet, rain, wind and sunshine - all in one day last week. It’s got a bit warmer which is nice but who knows what it’ll be like this week!

I’ve been working in the house over the past couple of days. David and I have been laying floor boards on the first floor so it’s getting ready for first fix electrics and plumbing to get going. David and I have also been planning the rooms, you know where we want lights, plugs and switches along with what layout we should have for the bathrooms and en-suite. There’s lots to think about but we’re very alike so it’s not been a problem as we tend to agree on most things. 

… that belts were going to be a thing for AW25.

It’s the last Monday of the month, so time to welcome my friends from Style not Age for our monthly challenge. This month it was my turn to choose and I’ve gone with this prompt as I know these are trending this season. So get settled for the theme …

Belt Up!

My Weekend - Pale Blue & Brown.

Hi there.

Hows your week gone?

Middle of October already! Half term next week and I’m so excited as I’m actually going away!

David and I are heading off to Savoca again. It’s become that place we both feel is like home. It’s actually nothing like our home or home surroundings but feels like a place we should just ‘be’ does that make sense?

I’m planning on taking some new dresses for the evening and I need to checkout the weather as we’ve not been there this late in the year so I’m not sure what the weather will give us. Any help greatly appreciated! 🙏

Saturday was a lovely day for me. It started with a football ‘Berry Derby’. Both my grandsons were playing in opposing teams so it was obvious I would watch as it was just up the road. It was a hard one but both my boys played extremely well - the nail biter was having them both in a penalty. I literally couldn’t watch as the ball was kicked into action, the goalie had a hand on the ball but it evaded him and soared into the back of the net! They both took the result well - even when the one of them copped the ball straight in his face - not by his cousin I hastened to add! The rest of the afternoon was spent on the hedge, yes the dreaded hedge. I completely knackered myself and felt quite unwell after clambering up and down the podium tower. It’ve got about a quarter left plus the spoil to collect but that’s for another day when I feel fully recovered! I’m really starting to feel my age!

Let’s take a look at today’s outfit. It’s one I wore the other day and combines brown with pale blue.

Styling New Trousers - Chicandstylish Linkup

Hello my friends. 

How’s it going?

I really do seem to have blinked and missed the summer, I’m still hankering after wearing my summer dresses, and fear Autumn will be upon us in no time - making jeans, boots, jumpers and coats top priority! Having said that it’s still hot here, so I’m still in my shorts and Tee shirts! How’s the weather for you?

Feeling quite pleased with myself recently as I’ve been into town and bought a couple of new bits for the new season. Some super trousers from H&M accompanied me home and I’m looking forward to styling them with a slinky top I picked up from them a week earlier. I had to grab a bigger size trouser (anyone else think H&M come up small),  Upon doing so I spotted a matching silky top, so will possibly get that online for my weekend away to Porto the weekend after next. 

Thought you might like a sneak peak of my new trousers, what do ya think?

Styling a Classic Wool Coat from Land's End.

Morning all.

Hope your January is off to a good start.

Mine is going well and I've got a new enthusiasm for the blogging world again.

I’ve been grateful for some decent weather recently (not today though) so have taken a few nice photos for the blog and Instagram (follow me on IG here for more inspiration). That and the fact I’ve got more time on my hands as Christmas is over I’ve been able to put more effort into the blog and my social media platforms. It really is a full time job isn’t it!

Yesterday I had a very early start. I was up at 3.30 to go to the airport, unfortunately I wasn’t jetting off to a hot destination but was dropping my daughter and her family off for their trip to Disneyland Paris. The kids were so excited and I’m enjoying the fun from afar with the photos and messages. Have you ever been to DLP? 

Cycle class booked for today along with an early abs class too, so that’s me for the morning, hope to spend the afternoon taking photos if weather is permitting. 🤞

Cast your mind back to last Thursday when I shared a new jacket with you, it's an ultra light down jacket in a fashionable shade of green.  You can read all about my khaki beauty here.

Today I want to show you another stunning coat from Land's End, so do stay with me for all the details.

Hi there and welcome to Mummabstylish. 

How’s the week been?

Hasn’t It been nice to get back to normal eh?  Some Christmas decorations are down and once the rest are down I’ll do a good clean up! Hasn’t the holiday period flown by? It’s also like I’ve blinked and missed it! 

I’ve been planning some posts for the next few weeks and have some lovely items to share with you, hope you’ll stop back. 

I went back to my gym classes yesterday, it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, but I do ache today. I should have booked another class for tomorrow but I’ve got other things to do so will wait for Monday and hope I’ll be back to usual form by the end of next week. 

Let’s talk coats. Do you have lots hanging in your wardrobe or do you rely of just a couple to see you through?  I was never a coat person unlike my sister who had every style, colour and pattern when we were younger, but since starting my blog I’ve added and added to my collection and now there’s so many in all different places (who else has loads of storage areas?) to complete any of my looks. Most are neutral, but I do have a fabulous military style in a new-to-me khaki green. 

Anyway I digress, today I wanted to share this padded beauty from Lands End and with you. It’s an ultra light down jacket that’s packable and just so happens to be khaki green as well!
