How I did it

How to decorate my daughters bedroom

It took me

3 days

It made me

Girlie!

How I did it: I have never had so much fun doing something! It was like realising all my childhood fantasies of what a little girl's bedroom should be like - and went totally mad! She's got bright pink walls....colour chosen by her (3yrs old!) and then there is an EXPLOSION of butterflies EVERYWHERE!!!! We have mirrored ones, vinyl wall sticker ones, and these absolutely gorgeous pop-up like ones I got at Next - I have been collecting butterfly things… Read how I did it…

How to get some crazy colour back into my wardrobe.

It took me

7 weeks

It made me

Colourful!

How I did it: Well I started taking risks and enjoying myself while looking at clothes and accessories. I bought myself the most amazing Mulberry bag in a reddy/purple colour and everything has pretty much spun off from there. Lots of cranberry, grape, purple, jade - heaps of all those amazing deep jewel colours that I have always loved - and have finally found again after months of wearing greys and neutral colours that I have been hiding … Read how I did it…

How to have my hair done with regularity.

It took me

1 month

It made me

Amazing!

How I did it: So I was approached by two people on my way to work about being a model for a demonstration for new techiniques at a well known salon and I said YES!!! And my hair looks fantastic and what was even better is that they do the workshops once every 5 weeks and need someone each time so I am going to be their model for the next few at least - which means that I have finally made myself sort my hair out - which makes the biggest differen… Read how I did it…

Get some crazy colour back into my wardrobe.

Untitled 3 months ago

Step by step I am getting there and this week was a huge week for colour in the world of Lucy Keogh!!!!
I have bought a gorgeous cardigan in a salmon/orangey colour – it’s fabulous and I wear it all the time.
I also got a beautiful royal purple trench from Gap on sale – which was great!!!
And today…well today…I got properly spoilt and bought a Mulberry Mitzy bad in rouge noir which is a stunning purple/magenta/pink sort of colour and I love it!!!!
So I just need to ditch the grey tops and get back into whites and colour and I’ll be there….hurrah!

be happy every day

Our Anniversary 3 months ago

Today was a totally amazing day…..I woke up and received a surprise present from my husband which was totally unexpected! And from there the day only got better….I am trying to let go of all the crap that other people bring into my life and just let myself enjoy the fantastic place we are in our life right now and enjoy every moment.
Carpe diem my friends!

Buy the dining table I love...

that I found on Ebay... 4 months ago

I have found this FANTASTIC dining table – dark dark wood and fully extendable – on Ebay for a steal at £50….and it comes with 3 chairs (random I know) but I could sell them on and use the chairs that we have already…so I just need to discuss the option with my husband a little more (ie: convince him that we need it!) and hopefully it will be ours soon.

About me:	“I am a 28 year old married mum of one and at the moment this is probably what deinfes who I am. I am now looking as to what is going to keep me interested and inspired for the next few years – we have made a massive move to Manchester UK from Melbourne Australia which so far has had massive positive and negative things going for it. I’m hoping that over the next few months things will start to happen in a way that we need them to so we as a family can make decisions without stress.”
