Harry Potter Sleep Wear for Grown Ups!

I love the Harry Potter books and movies and I'm delighted that it is a fandom that everyone can enjoy no matter their age! You may have read my Top Stocking Fillers for Harry Potter Fans gift guide where I brought together some great gift ideas for Hogwarts wannabes, well I'm now thrilled to discover that New Look have brought out a fabulous range of sleepwear and loungewear for big kids just like me who love J.K.Rowling's stories of witchcraft and wizardry.

Released just in time for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, out this week, these PJs and dressing gown would be perfect for snuggling up and re-watching the Harry Potter movies on a cold winter evening!

Harry Potter Gifts for Grown Ups

I've been sent a couple of items from the new range that would make perfect gifts this festive season. 

Harry Potter Ladies PJs

The Harry Potter Hogwarts Pyjama set  would be perfect for packing in your trunk to Hogwarts or maybe for a festive break away. This two part PJ set consists of a short sleeved stretchy t-shirt with the Hogwarts crest on the front and a pair of toasty green tartan brushed cotton shorts, with a matching tartan drawstring bag to keep them together. Available in sizes S, M and L with an RRP of £19.99 these would make an ideal gift for Mums, Sisters, Aunties or teen children who are big Harry Potter fans!

Harry Potter Men's Robe

If you're buying for a guy who who's a big Potterhead then don't despair, as New Look have something for the men too! This fabulous men's Hooded Dressing Gown can be found on the New Look website here, and I've been sent one for a sneak peek and I can't get over just how soft and snuggly it is! An ideal gift for your husband or boyfriend so that you can steal it back again when you're feeling chilly, maybe? This robe may be super warm and fluffy but it's not too girly for the man in your life! In black velour, it has two burgundy pockets and is trimmed in the Hogwarts tie colours of burgundy and gold with a matching belt. The chest has an embroidered Hogwarts crest and the back has the word Hogwarts embroidered in bold white text. The details are exquisite and the quality is high, making its RRP of £27.99 very good value!

Do you have any Adult Harry Potter Fans to buy for this Christmas? I would highly recommend checking out the sleep wear range from New Look if so!

Urban Logik Boots from Flash Price! #Freebie

There is a brand new website on the lose that is waiting to save you money on the latest fashions for your family. Flash-price.com knows that it's hard for families on a tighter budget to keep up with the latest fashion trends (especially when your child get sudden growth spurts like mine!) so they are bringing you some amazing deals to kit your family out with good quality fashionable clothing, footwear and accessories without breaking the bank!

As a fabulous introductory offer they are giving away 1000 HACK T-shirts worth £24.99 absolutely FREE! All you need to do is sign up to their newsletter so you will be the first to know about their latest offers... If you are one of the first 1000 people to sign up then you will be sent a t-shirt absolutely free, no purchase necessary ad no postage to be paid! What a great offer!

They aren't stopping their either, to promote the amazing deal they have on Urban Logik Men's and Children's boot's which are currently less than half their RRP starting from just £19.99 they are offering the first 500 customers who buy a pair, a BCK&HRSY backpack completely free!

We were sent a pair of boots and backpack from the range to check out and my 7 year old loves them!

Although faux leather the boots seem very sturdy and Ben says they are really comfy, so far they have proved to be warm and waterproof in this recent miserable weather we've been having. The rather daring colour combination works really well and is very on trend this winter. 

As for the BCK&HRSY bag, I was expecting something flimsy as a freebie but that is certainly not the case! I'm really impressed with the quality of the the bag and Ben an't wait to start using it as his school bag in the new year. It will be really handy for family days out too as is rather spacious and has separate compartments inside, ideal for a laptop or tablet!


Flash Price currently have FREE delivery on all orders until the end of the month too!

Camping is Ace! #BargainoftheWeek

We love camping! Our family Christmas present to ourselves was a brand new tent and we can't wait to take it out on our next outdoor adventure!

Tonight on the way to pick my eldest up from Beavers I popped into our local Morrisons and saw this t - shirt in their Nutmeg range...

 I agree Camping is Ace!

And for selling this at just £2 I think Morrisons is ace!

I picked one up for both my son and daughter, the loose fit and log sleeves will be ideal for running round fields on our net camping trip!

As I know my lovely readers are fans of the great outdoors as well as a bargain I just had to share this with you. The had a great selection of other clothes at great prices too but this top really stood out!

Have you found a good bargain this week? I'd love you to link it up here...



I was not asked to write this post, I paid for the t-shirts myself and just wanted to share!

What to wear to celebrate my birthday?

I have a love hate relationship with clothes at the moment.

I love them, but they seem to hate my body! 

I am bigger than I want to be and am working on changing that but in the meantime I HAVE to wear clothes (I'm not allowed to live in my dressing gown apparently!) 

Over the last few months I have feel as though I have been covering my self up in clothes rather than 'wearing' them.  

However that is GOING TO CHANGE.

It's my birthday this week and I'll be celebrating with a meal at Red Hot Buffet in Manchester and then a few drinks out with my hubby and I want to wear something that will help me feel good as well as hopefully looking nice too! I'm also attending PlusNorth - a plus size fashion event - this weekend and want to find something that I can wear for the evening of that as well. So the dress I am looking for needs to satisfy a dual purpose.

Being a busy mum I don't really have time to wander around the shops so tend to resort to browsing online, however even that can take up too much time, looking through different websites not seeing anything that really inspires me. So I was thrilled when www.styleinview.co.uk was recommended to me.

Style in View is a really nifty fashion search engine that trawls through the likes of ASOS, Debenhams, New Look, Topshop, Lipsy, Next, Oasis and Dorothy Perkins so you don't have to! It's really easy to use and so quick to narrow down by size, price, colour and so much more. Within ten minutes I had found a selection of dresses that I thought would be great for my birthday night out, now I just needed to dwindle them down to 'The One'.

And that's where my favourite feature comes in very handy. Style in View allows you to create a 'look', (which can include shoes and accessories too) and then share it on social  media or email it to your friends so it's really easy to get their input!

In my experience no one knows what suits you better than a friend, so you can send them your look and they can easily 'veto' that style or colour that they just know doesn't flatter you! It's so much easier than an email filled with links from various different sites that even the best of friends may get bored with part way through.

There are lots of other great features too, including the ability to opt in to alerts if any items that you have in your 'look' go on sale! What a fabulous idea!

So my lovely readers, I count you as friends as you know so much about me, can you help?  Can you check the look I have created below and let me know what you think?

My Birthday Look.... Powered by Styleinview.co.uk

I'm looking for dress that I can wear for both a birthday meal out and for Saturday night at Plus North, which of the above would you choose? be honest! I look forward to reading your recommendations!
