I was standing in line for a hot cup of coffee and gazing outside the window at the people walking by, the twinkling lights and Christmas decorations and a sense of happiness washed over me.

I decided to take a few days off blogging and rest up with the family during the Easter holidays. Our past two Easters have been spent travelling so this year we wanted to be with our families and really ‘feel’ Easter.
We took a one-night trip to the mountains where papa’s parents have a house in one of the villages, visited friends and basked in the sun. We ate ridiculous amounts of delicious foods, consumed our weight in chocolate eggs, played tsougkrisma and of course my family’s favourite Easter egg game, an epic egg hunt.
I’ve wanted to feature BB Wolf’s kids clothes on the blog since discovering them at The Birdhouse Etc during my local Christmas gift guide research.
Locally made, the range consists of jackets, jumpsuits and dresses with fabrics sourced from Onasagorou Street in Nicosia! All these gorgeous pieces make me wish I was having a girl. However the designer has indicated that there may be something for little dudes in the making. And I hope it involves a hoodie.
