• FOLLOW KAT THROUGH 2015 AS SHE JUGGLES FAMILY, FASHION, FRIENDS AND STAYING FABULOUS WITH TWO KIDS UNDER 10! • I love this time of year; summer is on its way and there are so many bank holidays, plus the kids get a week off so we get even more family time! I’m so glad I spruced up the house a bit last month; Dom’s mum has decided to pay us a visit over the bank holiday weekend after half term and I hate having guests when I’m not feeling particularly house proud. My favourite purchase has to be this gold Corsica table lamp from M&S £99. Kat talk s half te rm dos an d findi , henng the perfect fake ta n It’ll actually be really nice having her visit; Jake and Ella haven’t seen her in months now and I have a hen-do that weekend so I know Dom will really appreciate having some help with the kids. He’s not used to having them both to occupy like some of us are…! I’m going to put together a little ‘what’s on’ guide for him before I go so that he doesn’t feel too bewildered. Splat Soft Play in Bluewater has just opened so the kids can burn off some steam and enjoy the activities on offer. Jake’s been begging us for weeks to take him to Wahaca – he loves the churros with chocolate dipping sauce – so I think I’ll suggest Dom takes them there as a bit of a treat, although I’ll have food envy for sure – their guacamole is always to die for and the crispy taquitos are incredible. I guess I can’t really be too jealous of their Mexican food fun as I’m going to be in London all weekend for Sam’s hen-do. I’m so excited! It feels like we’ve been planning it for months (well I guess we have!) and now it’s finally here. Sam’s a real girly girl so we decided on Sex and the City as the theme; among other things, that means dress shopping! We’ve got two nights out planned and one is a bit dressier than the other, so I’m thinking this Paola dress (£175) from Coast will be perfect. Sam and I popped to Bluewater last weekend and she bought this Reanna feather dress (£350) from Coast and these fabulous Gismo Carvela Kurt Geiger heels in silver (£110) to match. She looks gorgeous in it all! 102
