See what I mean? It's Mother’s Day and I haven’t even thought about what I want! The kids usually make their gifts, which is always sweet, but Dom likes to get me something special to say ‘thanks’, but I can’t even give him hints this year as I’m clueless. Oooh, maybe some new earrings would be nice. He hasn’t bought me jewellery in ages and this pair from Mappin & Webb really caught my eye the last time I was at Bluewater—It's our 10 year anniversary after all! Failing that, he couldn’t go wrong with a gift card for me either, now I think of it! We’re going away next month and I could do with refreshing my holiday wardrobe – new day dresses and some new bikinis! Floresco Half Pave Studs £1,450, Mappin & Webb Foxtail – Layered Hem Dress £159, Reiss Aisha – Netting Overlay dress £189, Reiss Nike Free Tr Fit 4 £84.99, Office Just the thought of being in a bikini is horrifying at the minute; I caught a glimpse of myself in the bathroom mirror the other day and booked straight onto the next day’s spin class. I’ve got four weeks to give it a real shot before we go away and I’m determined to shed at least half a stone – that seems achievable, right? I hope so anyway. To motivate myself, I bought a new pair of trainers from Office; I figured if I feel good in what I wear, it’d make me go more…? Okay maybe I’m just trying to convince myself. In Dom’s words: “You don’t need any excuse to shop, but you always find one!” Oops! I even bought one of those cool new juicers from John Lewis as I hear a healthy juice in the morning can really give you a boost and with these kids, I need it. Hopefully that combined with my newfound motivation for the gym will help me shed those pounds. I’m so excited to get away with the family; I just really want to feel nice when we’re there. Watch this space and hope for a 7lb loss!
