A Valentine’s Recipe
Ingredients
2 kindred spirits
Cup of heightened expectations
A dash of pressure
300g of forgetfulness
A bathtub
250 litres of warm soapy water
Approx. 8 candles/tealights (or matches stuck in bread if
you’re really struggling)
Method
- Run warm water into the bathtub directly from the tap. Don’t forget to add the bubbles for extra luxuriance.
- Arrange candles around the bathroom for romantic lighting, light candles once bath has been run.
- Switch off light and bump into toilet, as bathroom is now too dark.
- Call your loved one seductively. As you wait, stand awkwardly, naked.
- Do best jazz hands as your loved one enters the room.
- Place both partners in the bath tub.
- Spend first 5 minutes jostling for position.
- Proceed to soak until softened, and slightly wrinkled.

Spring is here (almost)
We've not had any snow yet, but
spring is just round the corner, and here at My Big Sister we can’t wait. With
the warmer weather come some unique ideas to personalise your wedding look.
The ideal blend of whimsical and
boho-chic; nature supplies the perfect selection of accessories to complete
your look. Use as an eye catching pin on your sophisticated up-do, or go for a
more summer-of-love feel with a tiara on long flowing locks, this look is
suitable for everyone.
The only problem is choosing what
flowers and design to go for! So we've made a handy little guide of what’s in
season this spring to suit every girl.
Baby's Breath
Sometime’s less is more. Baby’s
breath is simple, but beautiful and would compliment both a sophisticated do,
and accentuate a more natural look.
Daisies
Nothing say’s spring is here more than daisies! They’re
fresh, classic and not very costly. If you’re feeling particularly frugal, you
can pick your own and adorn them with a couple of well placed bobby pins.
Hyacinth
Hyacinths have a distinct shape and would look amazing with
a sleek gown. Their star-like appearance is reminiscent of the headpieces worn
in the 20’s, so you can combine two trends in one!
Lilac
Lilacs
provide a delicate option, which would look great as a cluster or dotted
throughout a hairstyle.
Ranunculus
If you’re looking to make a bit more a statement then
Ranunculus is the way to go. These grow in a variety of colours, so can be
co-ordinated with the rest of your colour scheme. They’re sleek flower also
compliments a more modern look.
You can see of our favourite floral crowns on our Pinterest board here.
Whatever you choose, we know you’ll be a natural beauty on
your big day.
