This post has been waiting to be written for too long! Apologies about being a bit behind with the times, its one of those moments when I have more post ideas than time to write them.

Back at the end of May, I went down to the smoke for my sister-in-law Ella's hen party and to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, and took a bunch of beautiful bloom pictures which I've been meaning to share for anyone thinking of visiting next year, especially as I was a Flower Show first-timer and didn't know what to expect.

Here's what we got up to and what my impressions of the Chelsea Flower Show were...

Hi dolls

How has your April been so far? Are you feeling more spring-like?

I feel like this month is going ridiculously quickly. We’re racing headlong towards summer, and for me, the end of summer is going to bring about some massive changes in my life.

I’m trying my best to feel prepared but I am having momentary freak-outs about all the things I need to choose/decorate/buy/get done before August! But mostly its been a really nice few weeks. Here’s
what I’ve been up to this month...

Have you heard about Peter yet?

I teased you with a quick shot of the six marvellous goody bags chock full of amazing products that were so kindly gifted to us at the FABB Events blogger meet in Birmingham at the weekend, so it only seemed fair to do a post giving a peek inside.

It really was like Christmas had come early to have so much amazing stuff to unwrap so massive thanks to Tor and Ray for spoiling us and all the brands that gave us their items to try, we are truly grateful!

There’s literally so much to show that this post will be just a quick look at the items, then I may come back and review certain items later – so if there’s anything you want to see more of, let me know.

Without further ado, here’s a look at all the goodies…

This weekend saw FABB Events hit Birmingham and I was like a kid the night before Christmas.

Right, I couldn’t leave it any longer.

I had to get my post out on the lovely, incredibly generous goody bags Abbigayle over at stealstylist.com out together for those who attended her brilliant #bhmbloggermeet event last weekend.

There was so much in there, it’s taken me a while to get the pictures and the post done, but we were all very grateful, so I wanted to make sure this went up as soon as possible.

I’m in awe of how much hard work she must have put in to get all this together and spoil us silly, especially as I will shortly be doing the same myself for the March event I’m organising in partnership with 48 Hours of Fashion. Abbigayle did such a good job of her event and making us all feel welcome on the day. I hope you’re ready for a bumper goody bag here. Sooo much to unpack…
