When it comes to Xmas pressies for the kids, calendar presents, stocking fillers, and presents for friends, if there is one store you can always rely on to covers all your needs, it’s Smiggle. Kids just love Smiggle for newest gadgets and gizmos and not to mention stationary. They always have so much with cool stuff all kids will love, and in the lead up to Christmas, there’s even more to check out.. This year Smiggle has a collaboration with Marvel for the boys - as well as Disney Princess for the girls - for a full range of products ranging from backpacks, lunch boxes, drink bottles, journals, slap bands, head phones and stationary, My boys are loving the Marvel backpack - so many cool features, including front pocket for nicknacks and side pocket to store a drink bottle. It also has so many details, including of course pictures of all their favourite super heroes. It will be a heroic start to the new school year for sure!! Marvel Backpack - RRP: $89.95 Or what about this little Ma

If you have little kids, it’s not Christmas without toys under the tree -and at our house, toys from Vtech are always a great success! KidiGo Basketball My boys absolutely love the KidiGo Basketball hoop and ball! They love playing ball game outside - but sometimes an inside game is a great alternative, and that’s where Vtech comes in. The KidiGo Basketball is an interactive interactive scoreboard that keeps score and cheers the kids on as they play. It makes lights and sounds with every score.  It has five different game modes, making it possible to play alone or with a game of up to five players, so perfect if you have several kids.

Kids just love dressing up - and like most kids, we have a huge selection of dress ups collected through the years. But nothing beats a truly spooky costume on Halloween… This year my boys are loving a Glow in the Dark Bat Skeleton Costume*. The once design has  attached wings, all with printed skeleton print that glows in the dark when the print is activated under daylight or a bright light before use. My kids think is is the best ever, and that it makes them look so scary!!  It is made from polyester, but is a great fit and easy for even a little kid to put on.  But my boys also love the Organic Cotton Glow in the Dark Halloween Pyjama set*. The two piece set is made from organic cotton so it is super soft and comfortable to sleep in. And like the costume, the pyjamas has a printed on skeleton design that glows in the dark, when exposed to daylight or bright light.  As a parent, my favourite is without a doubt the pyjamas as it makes for better value, as they will get so much more we

Halloween… the annual event kids absolutely love. And what’s not to love. Its all about dressing up and eating lollies. I totally get it. But from a parents perspective it can quickly become an expensive event. But thankfully Reject Shop always has everything you need, and without it costing a fortune.  This year, we especially love the spooky LED Candelabra. They look super cool - like old steel decorated with sculls, yet they’re made from light plastic, and the flickering light is so cool, yet they are LED with replaceable batteries, not only makes them safe around kids, but also means they can be used year after year. Perfect! And add to that the spiderweb with very realistic-looking spiders and you’ve got one spooky room!!  And of course, there’s no Halloween without lollies - and this huge orange Trick-or-Treat candy bowl is perfect for all the treats for family and friends. The small buckets are perfect for Treat-or-Treating - not that, thanks to Covid, that will happen this year

I admit, I am addicted to beauty products - but if there is one thing that I love just as much, and if anything I have actually loved even longer, it is home decor. I am Danish after all, so I think that a love for design runs in my blood, so I simply love collecting special pieces for my home that I know I'll love for a long time. We have a new large contemporary home, and some very large class that are still bare, looking for the right artworks to fill them… But I’ve now come across the coolest artwork wetsite ever - Photowall ... Photowall  is based in Sweden and produce made-to-measure wall decor in their factory in Sweden, which they then ship worldwide.  Their range include wall murals , wallpaper , canvas prints , framed prints and posters . And each category has more different designs than you can possibly imagine, over 16,000 different motifs, within groups such as Animals, Art & Design, Children, Sport, Vintage, Nature, People, Textures… you name it, and it’s there!

I have previously talked about the Australian brand Skinstitut, and today I am very excited to be putting some further products from heir large range to the test… Skinstitut is an Australian cosmeceutical skincare range using premium, potent and cutting edge cosmical grade ingredients based on proven blends of AHA’s, Retinoids, Vitamin C, Peptides, Antioxidants and SPF technology. And what I really love, is that the cruelty free company also believes that high-end skincare should be accessible to everyone, and consequently their products are priced around 50% less than other comparative brands, with all products having a recommended retail price of $49 or less, and you can frequently find great offers on various online beauty shopping sites too, such as Active Skin , RY and Facial Co , so just how amazing is that! Now, let’s talk about the products I’ve put to the test; Skinstitut Glycolic Cleanser 12%*  Skinstitut Glycolic Scrub 14%*  Skinstitut Enzymatic Micro Peel*  Skinstitut
