August photo challenge | Day two - Polka dot

Now I know all I seem to have done is posted about Arabella, but when I seen that day two of the photo challenge was polka dot, I couldn't resist but to post this picture of her little dotty outfit!

We live in the North East of England, so we never really get nice weather except for last week. It was absolutely beautiful weather, with the temperature even getting as high as 31 degrees. As Arabella is still only a little baby, she's struggling to grow into her clothes. But now she's getting bigger, she finally grew into this gorgeous little dress, and I couldn't resist dressing her up and taking her to the park for a picnic with my mam. She absolutely loved it, lying in the shade of course!

August photo challenge | Day one - Hello August

To kick start my new blog, I've decided to do a photo a day challenge, seeing as though it's the first day of August.

I cheekily grabbed one off Instagram, and although it says '#craftylifephotochallenge', I can assure you my photos aren't craft related! I thought it would be a nice idea to post whatever photo for that day along with a little back story, if there is one.

Weclome to my new blog!

Hello old and new readers, and welcome to my new blog!

If you've followed me for a while, you'll know that my blog used to be Lipsticks & Collars, but after some thinking I decided it was time for a total blog make over, name included. I decided on the name Bee-you-tee, as it's a quirky play on the word 'beauty'. As I do more beauty posts than anything else, and will probably continue to do so, I thought it was rather fitting. Also I'm starting a beauty course in September, so the name relates.

The past 9 months.

Tuesday 29th September 2015 - Dan and I had the delightful experience of discovering we were going to be parents. 

Fast forward 8 months.

Wednesday 1st June 2016 - my due date. The date we had been anticipating and looking forward to for what feels like forever.

Spring Fashion Wishlist

Hey dolls,
So seeing as though it's now April and officially spring, I thought I would share with you my current fashion wishlist.

Where have I been?

Good evening dolls,

As you can probably tell, it's been a while since I last blogged. I blame technology, as my keyboard on my laptop doesn't work, and I wasn't able to blog from my iPad. But finally, I'm back with my trusty wireless keyboard, ready to start blogging again, and thought I'd start with a bit of a catch up.

Big Announcement!

Good evening dolls,

I know it's been a while, but it's literally been a crazy couple of weeks. In between my laptop breaking, being ill and moving house, I feel like I haven't had a minute to myself! Luckily we got settled into our new house pretty quick, and my laptop is kind of fixed, just a few of the keys are broke, so it takes a little bit longer to type anything now! But never mind, I'm just glad I can use my laptop all together, with a little help from an on screen keyboard of course.

Anyway, I wanted to do a little announcement post, as me and Dan have some good news...
