Meet Biscuit....

Lady K has been going on for a while about wanting a bunny (well any furry animal to be honest) so we had persuaded her to save her pocket money so she could afford one and to teach her a bit of responsibility too.

So today is the day - we have the hutch, hay & food - all we need is our bunny :)

And here he is!

Biscuit


His mum was a chocolate lop and dad a mini lion head - so he is a bit of a mix up! K is delighted with him and so are we!

Earth Hour

So Earth Hour - What is it?

Earth Hour is a global event organized by WWF, asking households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights and other electrical appliances for one hour to raise awareness towards the need to take action on climate change.

So off we went to Stormont  where we were going to join in Earth hour and have a torch lit tour of the building.

We were given wind up torches on arrival and Cool FM were on hand to provide music and information about the evening. At 8.30pm the non essential lights were switched off, and we split into groups for our tour.

As we were guided round the building by torchlight we were told a little of the history of the building:

 The children were delighted as some of the performers from Cahoots NI were on hand to entertain with short 5 minute performances.

At 9.30pm the lights came back on - it was amazing to be part of such an event, it certainly made us think about how many lights & appliances we leave on without needing to.

Belfast Fashion Week

I was lucky enough to get a couple of front row tickets to attend High Street Heaven at Belfast Fashion Week in the Europa Hotel.

We had complimentary bottles of West Coast Cooler on the way in and we our pictures taken by the Style spotter team from Sugahfix.
It was a fabulous night sponsored by West Coast Cooler and hosted by Katie Larmour, local model & television presenter.

With male & female models all wearing outfits from local high street stores such as Debenhams, Dorothy Perkins, Internacionale and Warehouse - I loved the fact that these outfits were readily available to anyone and not going to cost a fortune!
I want those tights!
I loved a lot of the looks and made notes when anything I particularly wanted came onto the catwalk! These butterfly tights are stunning - I'm a big fan of tights and love the current tattoo style.
Goody bags!
Everyone got a lovely goody bag filled with fashionable treats from West Coast Cooler, Benefit, Schwartzkopf and Warehouse amongst others.

This was a fun evening and my head was buzzing with ideas on the way home - although I think the highlight of the evening was 'the boys' (male models) getting their tops off on stage to Rihanna's S&M - certainly whipped up a frenzy in the room!
