Spring Clean Your Accessories!

May 20, 2016 | Accessorize, Clothing, Fashion

Spring has well and truly sprung and it’s a great time of year to begin your annual Spring clean. why not try a different approach this year and Spring organise instead?
​Being a busy mum of two with lots of things to juggle I have to be very creative with how to get the best out of my time.
Looking and feeling good are both important to me, certainly in my chosen field, but I found that post children i’d almost given up on spending time on me.
​My handbags were all stored away, replaced by the Mary Poppins of all changing bags and all my accessories were parked in the back of a drawer as it avoided them being tugged on or chewed!
​I stopped wearing make-up as I couldn’t possibly factor that in to my already manic schedule and my hair was lucky to see a brush let alone a trip to the hairdresser.
​All of this led me to feeling a little lost as all of the above things once created my identity and without them I morphed in to Sam and Ellie’s mum (no-one really knew my name anymore either)!
​Gradually coming out of the “fog” that is the first few years of parenting, I decided that I could be in control of my identity again resulting in an automatic growth in self esteem and confidence.
​I got creative with storage idea’s so that all my handbags/scarves and jewellery are in one place and can be easily seen and accessed.
​This makes my morning routine much more time efficient but also gives me the chance to re connect with me again.
​For anyone who recognises themselves in all of my waffle above, then please do spend some time on what makes you feel good! It’s worked for me!
