Hi Guys, It’s been a while since my last post, but I’m back just in time for Mother’s Day. If you’re stuck for ideas this year, I’ve rounded up my top picks to give you the ultimate Mother’s Day gift guide! I’ve picked out items in various price ranges to suit your budget. And remember, it’s not all about the gifts; just spending some good quality time and expressing how much she is appreciated is always the best gift, so don’t stress over it!
What’s your favourite Easter candy? It’s hard for me to pick just one because I have the biggest sweet-tooth and I may have a slight addiction to candy. lol! I will narrow it down to my top three; Marshmallow Peeps, Mini Cadbury Eggs and Cadbury Creme Eggs. Yummy! You also all know that I have an obsession for decor pillows, so for Easter I decided to combine the two and make my favourite Easter candy into a pillow. I put together a little picture tutorial if you’d like to make one as well. Super fun and Super CUTE!!!
How do you all spend Easter? Every year I head back to my hometown to spend time with my family. And by sending time, I mean eating, eating and more eating! I probably gain five pounds just from spending a whole weekend with them. It’s pretty bad. lol! For Easter dinner we do the full sha-bang; turkey, ham and all the yummy sides, but we are super informal when it comes to the dining part. We do buffet style, grab your paper plates and go to town! Even our seating arrangement is informal with a bunch of cheap portable fold-up tables from Walmart. With everything being so relaxed, I wanted to pick an outfit more on the casual side but still fun, since I do love dressing up. This violet dress is so perfect for this occasion and for any family setting really. The fabric is a sweatshirt material, which makes it comfy and the ruffles are subtle, so very casual and not over the top. It also looks great with skinny jeans underneath and if you want to dress it up, grab a pair of block heeled sandals. If not, they pair great with white sneakers. Get the look below…
