Aren’t These The Cutest Slippers Ever?

The other day I was asked to review some slippers. At first I wasn’t very keen as Olivia has only recently started walking and she doesn’t wear slippers at home, but then I clicked the product link, and just managed to say “wow”. I was looking at these very cute animal slippers, and didn’t know which ones to go for. I was also tempted to get them for Isabelle instead, but then she has her favourite “Hello Kitty” ones.

At the end I went for the Sew Heart Felt Coco Cow Slippers, and was very excited to watch Olivia walking in them. As she is 15 months now, I went for the 1-2 years size, but when they arrived I realised tat they were still a bit bigger for her to wear now. I know once she gets much more confident, and once the weather will be colder they will be very handy indeed. Aren’t they just adorable? They also arrived in a nice linen bag, so definitely could be a great gift for children. Check out the other designs, and sure you will love them all!

Proud to Be Part of Mothers & Shakers: Boutique Social Media Collective!

There have been many changes happening in my life in the past year or so. It all started having a chat to one of my very close blogging friends Uju from Babes About Town. We both felt like we have been blogging for a while, and that we would like to take it to the next level. I remember sitting down with her while our children were running around. I was pregnant with Olivia back then, and as you can see it took us quite a few months of hard work to put this fantastic new project together. I cannot take the credit for it all, as there are 8 of us in it, and to be fair I think Uju has been the driving force for it all. She is our boss lady, hope she will not take it the bad way once she reads my post!

Anyway, what is our project about? It’s all about incorporating all our skills and helping out small businesses and also bloggers to grow their reach. We all have different skills and come from a wide range of backgrounds. If you a business we can help you out with setting up your social media strategy, twitter parties, connect you with influential bloggers and much more, just check out our services page. If you are a blogger, don’t forget to check out our Bloggers page, and sign up for our free mailing list for updates, exclusive offers and insider tips.

I have been blogging and tweeting for more than 4 years now, so really hope that my experience can help out in the upcoming MASH projects.

Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and Facebook and you can always get in touch with any question via our e-mail contact@mothersandshakers.net
