What Willow Wore #5

H&M Floral top

H&M Floral shorts

I can't find the top or bottoms online anymore but I know they're definitely still available in store, and the best part is they're only £2.99 each. They're such a lovely light material which is perfect for summer, and I couldn't resist the pattern (much to Kyle's disgust - he hates flowers). Doesn't she look a treat!

My Spring wishlist for the home

We've lived here nearly two years now and I'm desperate to start adding the little touches to make it more homely. Our living room has been decorated 19 months now and we still just have the wires having out of the wall for new wall lights. Willow's room has been decorated nearly a year and she still doesn't have a light in there! Don't get me wrong there's still big purchases I want like a new sofa but for now there are smaller things we can add that will hopefully make it look a little more finished.

1. Wall lights for the living room -  As I mentioned before it's been a long time since we had wall lights in the living room. I'm just so picky about finding something that doesn't completely match our ceiling light but still compliments it. I think these glass ones will look nice but in all black, at least then they'll work with our wire lampshade.  2. Light fitting for Willow's bedroom - It's taken me a long time to find a light fitting for Willow's room that I really like. I stumbled across a home instagram account (@thehomethatjomade) and was weeks deep into her profile, I can quite easily scroll through home accounts for hours, then I came across the feather light shade. Did a quick google and found one not too big from B&Q that will look so pretty in Willow's room. 3. Rug for living room - The one thing I've wanted ever since we had the wood floor put down in the living room. I did a poll on my Instagram story between two patterned rugs that I was trying to choose between. I definitely want something with a bit of a pattern just so if it's dirty the pattern will hide it a bit better than if it were one solid colour. But part of me still wasn't sold on either of them.  4. A shelf for Willow's bedroom - Willow got so many beautiful bits from her Christening back in September and I've just had nowhere to display them. She's only really got her window ledge, but I hate when they look cluttered from the outside, so I'd like a shelf, or maybe two, to go just above her chest of drawers. I could picture a white shelf with wooden brackets but was really struggling to find what I wanted, and let me tell you, browsing shelves online in boring! I've settled on the Ikea Ekby Valtar/Ekby Laiva shelf but I'm going to stain or paint the shelf part white (I'll consult Dad on what's best!) 5. Rug for Willow's room - There's a bit of a theme for Willow's bedroom going on but I just want her to have a lovely little space with personalised touches. She's had a throw since she was a baby that we've always used as a playmat on the floor, it's really thick like a rug, although it was much thicker until I washed it on a hot setting. It's currently on the floor in her bedroom but it's too big and it just slides around so I want a smaller to make the floor a little cosier to play on. I had visions of layering a pink rectangular rug with a fluffy cream one but then I saw this circular spotty one on the H&M website and thought it was cute.

What Willow Wore #4

Red jumper

Denim treggings

Trainers

Happy Valentines from my sweet little Willow Rose. I think she definitely suits her middle name because she looks so lovely in red. This jumper is still gigantic on her but I couldn't resist the hearts to get in the spirit. Her whole outfit is H&M, which, that's what happens when you work there, although the jumper was a gift from my sister, Em. 

Also, these are Willow's first pair of jeans! I talk about it in a vlog that's coming in the next few days but I didn't ever like the thought of putting Willow in denim as a baby. I just know myself that I wouldn't put jeans on and go to sleep so I couldn't do it to my little baby. I feel she's at an age now where she's on the move (constantly!) and so a little soft pair of jeans would look sweet on her. I did still take them off for nap time though.

What Willow Wore #3

H&M jumper Floral leggings Trainers Another jumper of Willow's that I absolutely adore. I find that quite I do tend to dress her in a statement top and just basic leggings. It sort of became habit to put her in leggings when she started crawling because dresses were off the cards for a while with them just getting tucked up under her little legs. Anyway, these little floral leggings are part of set, the top that actually came with it was Bambi, but I prefer just the leggings.

What Willow Wore #2

Red sweater

Blue leggings

Brown moccasins

I still love this jumper just as much as the day she first wore it and although Kyle kept moaning at me that her little brown mocs don't go with it I'd rather them than her pink trainers. Pink and red are a no go for me. I actually bought her moccasins from Lidl when they had a baby event on about a month before I gave birth to her. At that point we didn't know if she was a boy or girl and I thought they'd look cute on either gender.
