When I walked out of my appointment at Olivia Catherine Skin Concept, I was beaming. Not only had I been treated to a facial that had me looking in the mirror admiring my glowy, clean skin for the remainder of the night (those who have had one of Olivia’s hydro-dermabrasion facials will understand that they […]
Ultimate Breakfast in Bed with Metricon
Last week I headed to Metricon’s Ultimate Mother’s Day Breakfast in Bed. This event was held in Balwyn at their La Pyrenee show home, which is INCREDIBLE. If you’re not too far away it is well worth a drive and a look- I intend on taking both my hubby and my mum back there soon […]

What’s In My Baby Bag?
My baby bag is like my third child. It’s a staple that comes with us everywhere and I actually feel weird leaving the house without it. Before I get into what’s inside mine, I’ll quickly tell you the story behind my baby bag and how I came to settle on the one I love, because […]
