About Me:
Hi, I'm Louise! I started this channel in 2010 after readers of my blog (called Sprinkle of Glitter) suggested I give KZread a try. I was instantly hooked and have found my internet playground on here. I make videos about plus size fashion, motherhood, lifestyle and occasionally have special guests (friends, kittens or my sweet Daughters Darcy, 11 and Pearl, 5).
I also write (book number SIX is out now!), podcast (Mother's Meeting, series 2 out now) and waffle on all over instagram.
Hit the subscribe button to never miss a video again!
I chat every day on my other social media (linked above) so do come and say hi!
Big hugs,
Louise xxx

    Going on a cruise has always made me feel a bit nervous/never really appealed to me. But these videos have just been so lovely and have changed my mind about cruises. The views just look incredible, and it’s so nice that you can do everything at your own pace 😊

    When Darcy was getting ready at 12:16 I thought, "she looks like one of the twins from the 90's Parent Trap" and then sure enough, she said that that's what she was going for 😊 She has fabulous taste in clothes and films 😉

    I've never been interested in cruises/definitely had a lot of stereotypes about them, but watching this changed my mind! It looks like such a lovely, calm beautiful holiday and watching you make memories with your family was lovely, thank you so much for sharing :) Much needed "vacation" for me after a long day - so calming to watch all the waterfalls. Please go on more cruises and post about them!

    those views are stunning! Top tip for walking down steep paths, walk in a zig zag, by increasing the distance you walk you will also decrease the incline, and it also means if you fall it is much easier to recover and you won't take a tumble!

It’s so much fun seeing you explore parts my home country ❤ I was also impressed by how well you pronounced Hellesylt 👍 The west is absolutely gorgeous ❤ I’ve grown up in the east and middle of Norway (I’m labelled a “halvtrønder”, which means that one parent grew up in Trøndelag and the other somewhere else) 😅 It’s always been back and forth between the different areas for me I also just wanted to note that Norwegians call it fiskesprett (fish skips/jumps) when you say that you’re skipping stones. It’s a really fun way of just spending some time and letting the mind rest a little ❤

At least you had flip flops, I brought ballet pumps, thank goodness. They were just supposed to be used if the seas were rough. But ended up wearing them most of the cruise to dinner as every night the feet would be swollen. Xx
