What Blake Wore: Autumn/winter with Blade and Rose

Blade and Rose are known for their bright and colorful clothing, especially their leggings. 

They have launched a new selection of bright and fun clothing sets for babies and toddlers for this season. So prepare your little one for autumn/winter with Blade and Rose's new designs featuring: Paddie Pirate, Oheo Owl, crazy cat, pineapple and rainbow sets. 

The selection includes leggings, hats, bibs, socks, tops and even cute cuddly toys. 

I was sent a pair of their bright and colorful rainbow leggings in a size 2-3 years for Blake. 

I am very impressed with the quality of their leggings and they are true to size. 

I love the bright and colorful design of the leggings which is a popular design from Blade and rose at the moment. The leggings feature red, blue and yellow stripes with a cloud design on the rear.The rainbow set also includes a rainbow reversible bandana bib with colorful stripes and stars, a red star hoodie and a matching red chunky bobble hat all pictured above.  

I put Blake in his leggings with a red long sleeve top that I already have for him. 

I also tested out the leggings when he was in a cloth nappy and found that they fit perfectly over them, which I struggle when it comes to with his usual trousers and jeans.

Wellies Perfect For The Autumn/Winter

When it comes to autumn I love to go out for long walks with my little family. 

As the weather here in the UK at this time of year is very windy and wet I am

going to have to make sure I have a good pair of shoes. 

This is why Joules Wellies are ideal for this time of year. 

After all who want's to have wet, cold and muddy feet. 

Wellies especially come in handy during the winter months especially

if we are to get snow as predicted. 

Although I love my good trusty winter boots they aren't always appropriate though. 

I find that they don't always tend to stop my feet from getting wet even though they are nice

and warm. 

After a search for a fab looking pair of wellies I came across the Joules ones. 

They have such a fab range so if you don't want to you wont have to wear

the traditional plain black or green ones you don't have to. 

My favorite has to be these navy stripe ones. 

The color is very versatile so means that whatever you are wearing they would go well with.  

Not only are they super stylish but they are made with textile linings and insole which will help to keep you warm and cosy during the colder months.

I also like that these wellies have an adjustable buckle strap at the side so if you have larger calves these will be able to fit you. 

What do you think of Joules range of wellies? 

Do you wear wellies this time of year or do you prefer to go for your usual trusty boots?

Hans Sloane Drinking Chocolate

Happy December everyone, not only is Christmas fast approaching but this month 

I will be having my baby! 

So this month I have scheduled a few posts but plan on taking a little break once

little one decides to make an appearance. 

Today I am telling you about a range of Drinking Chocolate that I have recently come by, Han Sloane.

Hans Sloane drinking chocolate is the only hot chocolate made from pure chocolate beads. 

 Their company mission is to bring the taste of chocolate back to drinking chocolate and their beads melt perfectly in hot milk or water to create a richer chocolate drink. 

Available in 270g packs, Hans Sloane Drinking Chocolate comes in five varieties, including: 

 Smooth Milk

 Rich Dark

 Madagascar 67%

 Ecuador 70%

and their unique flavor Natural Honey.

This Christmas Hans Sloane has created the ideal stocking filler.

Their Christmas bauble which is filled with chocolate beads!

 Simply shake to hear the chocolate beads inside before popping the bauble into a cup and adding hot milk or water.

Priced at just £2 this stocking filler is great treat on Christmas morning. 

I love hot chocolate and have mug almost every night so was thrilled to try a range

I hadn't previously heard of. 

My favorite from the range has to be natural honey followed by the smooth milk flavor.

I love that compared to the usual hot chocolate the Hans Sloane chocolate beads have a more richer chocolaty taste. 

They melt really well too but make sure you stir like you would do with your usual hot chocolate as otherwise you will end up with a lump of chocolate at the bottom of your mug. 

Heat-Holders Neckwarmer

When it comes to keeping warm when out and about this winter one item I love

is this neck warmer from Heat-Holders.

I am huge fan of Heat-Holders and own a few of their products to keep me toasty warm.

As you would have seen earlier in the week I was recently sent their new thermal snuggle blanket.

 I was also sent their new neck warmer as well and now both items I feel are essential for the cold winter months.

Heat-Holders do neck warmers for both men in Black or Charcoal and for women in black or purple. 

The neck warmer is made from a specially developed thermal yarn that provides high performance insulation 

against the cold with moisture breathing abilities. 

The heat weaver lining is a plush fur like thermal lining that maximizes the amount of warm air held close to your skin. 

The Heat-Holders Neck Warmer is a versatile and effective alternative to a scarf. 

The ladies sculptured fit drops low to contour around the chest, neck and chin to keep out cold drafts for extra warmth and protection. 

Will you be buying one this winter?

Heat-Holders Snuggle Blanket

The weather has been really temperamental recently, one minute warm the next cold.

I am glad to have received the all new snuggle ups thermal blanket. 

The blanket is ideal for snuggling up and keeping warm.

The snuggle up blanket is a thermal luxury soft fleece blanket that is 180cm x 200cm 

that comes in two colors antique silver and moon rock. 

The Blanket is a good size meaning you can snuggle up in front of the fire with 

a hot drink and your partner. 

The blanket has an official tog rating of 1.6 and is incredibly soft and easy to look after, as it is fully machine washable. 

With heating prices soaring snuggle up with Heat- Holders Snuggle Blanket and keep warm.
