Clothes can cost a fortune, so it makes huge sense to take good care of them!  So, to help you with the perfect solution to caring for your clothes and linen is Total Wardrobe Care.

Total Wardrobe Care was created out of the need to find perfect solutions for people’s wardrobes.  They stock a great range of products, and the best in hanging, storing and protecting clothing in wardrobes.

All these products contain a natural, organic moth deterrent that doesn’t leave a nasty smell on clothes. A wonderful aromatic New Forest scent works a treat on them – one that we love and moths hate!
Here are some of my favourites.

This Natural Anti-moth Linen Spray with Organic Essential Oils (£21.00) is a brilliant way to protect your garments from moths and to keep you wardrobe fresh.  The fragrance is really lovely, and works just as well as a room spray, to use on upholstery, curtains and carpets.  No more lingering nasty smells with this spray!

It is produced using 100% organically-grown essential oils including: May Chang, Lavender, Cedarwood, Patchouli, Laurel, Rosemary, Thyme and Clove Bud, hand-blended in natural plant alcohol and spring water – beautiful and aromatic.  You can use this linen spray once a week in the moth breeding season (May to October) to help deter those little blighters!

The Natural Scented Anti-moth Drawer Liners (£12.50) will not only help to protect your clothes/linen, but will also help keep them smelling fresh.  Being designed to line your drawers, they can also be used for lining Total Wardrobe Care Storage Boxes.  The fragrance is once again lovely, and it will last for 3-4 months after opening.  Once the smell disappears, you can refresh them a simple spray of the Linen Spray mentioned above.

These drawer liners contain the special recipe of natural anti-moth essential oils including May Chang, Lavender, Cedarwood, Patchouli, Laurel, Rosemary and Clove.

I am always on the look out for something fun and noticeable – and I have found just the thing. Vibram FiveFinger Shoes have got to be the most eye catching pair of shoes that I have come across, you will be sure to get a second glance at them by passers by!

image

These spectacular shoes have been designed for a wide range of sports and activities – everything from yoga to kiteboarding, from tai-chi to windsurfing, from hiking to fitness training and from trekking to running.  Whatever sport you are into – these shoes are more than ideal to wear.  Fivefingers footwear will enhance your performance in daily activities and sports and may help to prevent injury in addition to speeding up recovery from certain ailments – now that sounds good!

image

Wearing FiveFingers Shoes, feel’s like you are walking on the ground.  But as they say:-

“The distinct sense that you can feel your surrounding environment, that you’re in touch with the Earth, provides an unparalleled experience.”

This new generation of sports shoe provides all the benefits of going barefoot.  But, with a non slip, protective grip they can be considered as a training device because they force your body to adapt to a new style of footwear. That, in turn, stimulates the muscle in your feet and lower legs to build strength and improve range of motion, plus, getting great grip on any surface.

Although, it does seem odd when first put them on (like putting gloves on your feet!). But they are surprisingly extremely comfortable, once you get used to them. They look great, and will benefit you whilst doing your sporting activities – you cant ask for much more!  They come in a variety of striking colours and as a huge bonus, are completely machine washable – they will last you for years.

As FiveFingers Shoes are an entirely new product, you don’t have to worry about many people having them.  Trust me, when you pick the kids up from school, all the other mums will look on in envy at them!  So I urge you to help start the trend in FiveFingers Shoes, and buy yours today!


Check out http://www.primallifestyle.com, who are the official UK distributors of the Vibram Fivefingers shoe.  Prices start from £84.99.

I have come across a fantastic retailer, who aims to give to us new and exciting fashion products.  Footasylum gives us that little bit more than your average high street shop, offering a range of more quirky and unique fashion items to choose from.  Stocking a range of very well known young fashion and sports brand, kitting your whole family out with outfits this Christmas is incredibly simple with Footasylum.

A brand that I think is incredible is Condemned Nation.  This brand has been risen from the Victorian obsession.  Vintage concepts and military influences are used to create understated yet unique pieces.  Footasylum say: -

“Combining contemporary fabrics with historic references, to liberate the curious consumer seeking something unusual. Sculpted and tailored styling uses premium fabrics to create a relaxed structure, showcasing our distinguished trims and meticulous attention to detail.”

Check out this life and death t-shirt from Condemned Nation.  Priced at £25, your man is sure to look great wearing it.  It is soft to the touch and very flattering on.

Another great brand within Footasylum is Genious Madness.  The Genius Madness collection boasts a great range of plimsoles, the must-have piece of footwear plus a great new selection of women’s pumps and sandals.  This brand is perfect for the summer months ahead – which I am sure we all can’t wait for!

I love these Thomas Desert Boots (£60) from Genious Madness.  They look fantastic on and are very comfortable to wear – a must have for the warmer months!
