Coffee amid the chaos
I'm just sitting here, bleary eyed, with a large mug of coffee in my fave Dean and Deluca cup (purchased on our NY honeymoon in 2011). It's 6am and I've already had to contend with 2 pooey nappies and a wee on the carpet all thanks to my 7 month old Arthur. Ah, the glam, glam life of the Mother.
The mind started to wonder as it does...
and I wanted to do a quick post about...

My Rockabilly Summer Outfit of the Day trial run

I'm slowly but surely learning how to code (very, very basic HMTL & CSS) in order to customise my blog... I managed to add my Instagram to the top left - so do follow me on there if you'd like to see more of the pics as and when I upload them. Am naturally on there as myrockabillysummer. I am extremely guilty of using filters and 'artseying' them up a bit before putting them on there - must...

The Voices.

Ha, I realise the title of this post sounds a little paranoid (or you might be thinking I'm about to start swivelling round in a large red chair) but...I promised to talk more about my 'bravery' in a previous post.
'The Voices' are those thoughts in my head which stop me in my tracks. Makes me take off the fun dress I was going to wear, makes me wipe off the red lipstick and makes me shrink away....

Lindy Bop Sale Madness

Great Balls of Fire
I've just spent far too much in the Lindy Bop sale... So much for the 'on a tight budget' rule :/ This was also not my scheduled post for today but I just had to blog about my sale moment of madness. Reader... it was a bloodfest, haha.
It's currently still on as I write this post so if you're looking to grab a bargain now's the time - some items are under a tenner!...

The rough outlines of my Rockabilly Foray

So, this little experiment of mine needs to have some rules in order to actually be a thing.
1. This is not a tutorial site but I will show you my inspirations and my experiences - good and bad. And if you like what you see and can take something away from it then that's awesome. But I am not teaching or preaching here, ok?
2. My Rockabilly Summer is about me pushing myself stylistically but it's...

The beginning of my Rockabilly Summer...

Vintage Tea Partying
I've started this blog for a number of reasons;
The Mum Bubble.
The Mum Bubble is real people! I'm a fairly new mum and have effectively been on maternity leave for near on 2 years after having my second son 18 months after the first. I have turned into a shuffling, zombie-esque birds nest of a person and I want to find something akin to a 'style.'
