As you know I am a big fan of high street and designer brands but what I really love is finding small unique labels that not many people know about. Most of my finds come as a result of me trawling through Instagram or the Internet or if I’m lucky through someone recommending something to me. It all takes a lot of time and whilst I enjoy the thrill of
Rex is at an age where the imagination is in overdrive. The art of learning a language brings with it all sorts of creative stories and images that not even I could have dreamt up. Sometimes I think it would be so cool to capture the weird and wonderful world that Rex is currently living in and that’s why I love the idea behind contemporary kid’s brand girlstalktoboys. girlstalktoboys is
I have found the best gift for you to buy and it’s currently so new that you will win extra brownie points for present buying innovation (dads take note)… but be quick.It’s by a new brand called Honey & Toast. Founded by Emma White, an accessories designer for 15 years to fashion houses including those of Paul Smith, Alice Temperley and Mary Katrantzou. After having children she decided to create
I think I’ve just found a miracle slimming cure without having to give up on cakes and pasta…check out this denim top! When you put it on it makes your legs look skinny! I actually bought this top from Asos because I loved the ruffles but the ruffles have taken a backstage to the (bold statement here) ‘stick leg’ effect which takes place simply by applying top to body –
The Horniman Museum has often been my saviour in times of toddler meltdown. No it is not a place (as its name might suggest) to gain sexual gratification…unless a room full of taxidermy is what floats your boat. Instead it is an oasis of beautiful gardens overlooking London’s skyline and a museum with a schedule of events to entertain both adults and children. To coincide with the Rio Olympics, The
On our most recent trips to Greece and Spain we were loaned some Samsonite luggage to trial as a family. As many of you know we were away for quite some time (two months) due to Ross’s job so there was a lot of ‘stuff’ to pack. I would love to say I’m a supersonic, amazing, zen packer but I’m not. I’m a kitchen sink kind of girl who likes space
If you’re looking for stylish self catering accommodation for the family in Mallorca, this post is about an urban stone house we rented through Airbnb on the south east coast of the island. If you love interiors like me, you will most likely appreciate this three bed with roof terrace and courtyard garden. A mix of industrial grey polished plaster and exposed Mallorcan stone walls made this house a delight to
There is a new t-shirt in town and its arrival into my letterbox couldn’t have been more timely. Bax and Bay have created the 100% organic cotton Mama Fox T-Shirt. Just when I was about to drown my 40 year old birthday sorrows into a cup of tea, the mama fox tee called out to me…”get your lippy on and go work it mama” and so I did. This is
My son is now almost three years old and I have seen him grow up so much during our stay in Mallorca. Each day a little part of the baby in him disappears and I get a glimpse of the boy he’s turning into. There are no more nappies because he uses the toilet, the pram is more or less redundant because he walks everywhere, he sits in a normal chair
Last but not least of my holiday dress round-up is the Eva Dress from Mes Demoiselles. Some of you will have seen me wearing it quite a lot in my Instagram feed and although it’s no longer available in the UK it is available in Cassai here in Mallorca. Mes Demoiselles is one of my favourite brands for gorgeous, french bohemian style. The designs are floaty and feminine but with a contemporary cut
