I feel like I’ve accomplished so much in January. Maybe it is because my December was an absolute **** show for me. (I’m still not laughing about it.)  

I also really want more parents to watch this TikTok video, because letting your child wander around a shop without ‘direct eyeballs on them’ is maybe the single dumbest thing anyone can do.

Then I’m back at the workshop thing, new partners and all. (Long story and I don’t want to talk about it ever.) The first LipLab lipstick workshop for 2025 is in Polokwane with 2 Johannesburg workshops already scheduled. In case you were wondering, yes, we do bring the fun to private parties or work functions.

I’m always on the hunt for Barbie things for myself and the kids – and Disney for the kids. (Whilst I can wear the 15 to 16 year size T-shirt, I do prefer little looser cuts.) Pep has been on fire since last year for both Barbie and Disney. Ackermans brings in the most new rangers consistently. Jet, (and Bash) has the most amazing Barbie and Stitch. Mr Price sometimes have great stuff.

Then, just in case you are looking for gifts this early in the year, The Whimsical Whippet added a few good markdowns on their sale.
