Educational Art with LookLearn – The Solar System | Review

[Ad- gifted product] Kai, (my eldest child) is currently doing some awesome homework projects all about space and the solar system, and he has been super pumped about it. We’ve enjoyed doing many of these projects with him and watching him learn through his work. When LookLearn reached out with their line of sleek posters which aims to help children learn through seeing fun, stylish educational posters that would look great in their bedroom or in any room of the house, really.

The creator of LookLearn was inspired by decorating his daughters’ bedrooms, where he searched for educational posters that would look nice within the room. As he had been in the design business for over twenty years, he found that the overcrowded, full of colour, almost childish posters wouldn’t do, so he went on to design his own covering a bunch of different topics like colour, shape, the human skeleton, multiplication and of course, space.

Tutti Rouge Lingerie: Eva Yellow Set & Liliana Creme Bra | Review

[Ad- gifted product] As someone with a larger body, finding bras that are comfortable and sexy is sometimes a challenge. Often you end up sacrificing the look of your bras for comfort or paying silly amounts of money for something that looks good and feels great. Some people find trying on bras really uncomfortable, and with the amount of online stores, it’s easy to just order something and hope it’s up to the quality and standard you’d like. When Tutti Rouge reached out looking for people to review their lingerie, I was excited to try out some new clothing!

I ended up picking out a bralette set in yellow, which featured a full figured like myself as a model, as well as a simple creme bra. These undergarments came in a cute bag, quickly and were quite cheaply priced, considering the quality of the material and cut. The website, when it came to navigation, was a bit confusing. On one page, you can select the size that you want to purchase, but often that page that you are sent too doesn’t show all of the bras you could pick from. The bralette set that I picked doesn’t actually show up in a set size on the site, as it is a bralette, so the item can cover across three different cup sizes. This means that it does not appear in any of the three categories, which is a shame as some sizes seem like there is little to nothing to choose form, so if you want more choices, it’s better to start looking through undergarments you like.

LIV – Contemporary Restaurant | Review

[Ad- gifted experience] Our entire family was invited to check out LIV, a contemporary restaurant located in Belgravia, London. This venue is bright, spacious and offers a lovely menu of dishes from British artisanal suppliers. Very much relaxed fine dinning experience, the menu is one full of beautiful plates, interesting ingredients and higher end meals. It’s a pretty limited menu, allowing the chef to focus on the meals set and made. The food is really the star, even with such a wonderful, well decorated venue.

LIV now has a children’s eat free offer, on weekdays from 4pm to 7pm on weekdays. If you’ve got some adventurous children interested in trying new foods, this offer is amazing. The menu children get to pick from is the same as the adult menu for dinner, but there are plenty of side dishes and small dishes that fit well for kids. We have a picky eater and two who will try anything, but there was enough to accommodate all of them and allow them to try some spectacular new foods.

Peach&Beet There are Two Sides to Every Story Print | Review

[Ad- gifted product] Peach&Beet have a variety of different prints, mostly based around phrases, words or numbers to decorate your house with. This simplistic designs offer a sleek look with a pop of colour or personality to any room in your house. From phrases about falling in love, having a good time or just designs of the all-seeing eye, if you are looking for some new art to hang in your house, they’ve got plenty of options.

I went for the There are Two Sides to Every Story print, which I feel is a really clever idea. Some of the words are backwards, showcasing the two sides visually before you read them. I feel this is so clever, having both the phrase and then a visual representation of exactly what it is saying. I’ve always been one to say there are two sides to every story – three if you consider each person’s point of view and then reality, so having a print that showcased this fit well for the aesthetic I am going for. After purchasing a gold frame, as most of the ones in the Peach&Beet shop seem to be featured in gold or simplistic, thin black frames, I figured it looked perfect. The print is of good quality, printed on card stock.

The Lost Hour – a Pub and Restaurant | Review

[Ad- gifted experience] We were invited to take on the new vegan options at The Lost Hour, a casual pub that has pool tables, a SNES, loads of TVs showcasing sports, and a friendly atmosphere. Offering a bunch of beers on tap and fruity ciders I hadn’t even heard of before, as well as a generously sized menu full of food, this pub is a step above your average Wetherspoons. They’ve added a few vegan specials to their menu and are encouraging those doing Veganuary by offering double points for vegan purchases made by people who sign up for their rewards card called ‘more’. They are also doing 25% off low-alcohol or non-alcoholic drinks if you are doing dry January and have a card! These reward points can add up to free food or drinks at The Lost Hour. The bar staff themselves were also really lovely, which is worth a mention. They spent time asking tables if everything was good, cleaned fast and efficiently, and had good conversations at the bar. It was just a really friendly bunch! Let’s get down to the food;
