Stylish Family Travel and Fashion Blog London Mum (Ex Luxury Travel PR)
I know the words toddler and boat don’t really sit well together but I like a challenge. One of the most popular activities in Colonia de Sant Jordi is to hire a brig boat and explore the beach coves dotted along the south east coast of Mallorca. We had no babysitting option so T-Rex was coming with. The Crew Whilst a Sunseeker would obviously be my first choice, our little brig
I generally live in jeans at home in London and so it’s been all about the dresses for me while I’ve been out in Mallorca. If you’ve been looking to try an off the shoulder top or dress, Zara have some good ones. This printed one is currently in the sale and has been such a good holiday dress. The shoulders don’t ‘ping off’, it’s a good length, the material is
I’m always so envious of the effortlessly chic ‘white dress wearers’ you see on holiday. It’s such a sophisticated look that I associate with walking barefoot down a jetty in St Barts or drinking in a colonial tea house in Sri Lanka. Finding the right white dress to suit you isn’t always easy and so it was nice to have the decision taken out of my hands when new brand, Dilli Grey sent
Love it or hate it…I had to do a post crediting my latest TV addiction – Love Island. Not only has it given our family almost two months in the sun due to Ross working on the show but it has also unveiled a stunning part of Mallorca that I probably wouldn’t have considered before. We have travelled around the world with T-Rex and our current location in South East
Us mums are full of brilliant ideas for our kids. I must have thought of a million product ideas since having T-Rex but putting them into practice is a massive challenge, especially when you are still being a mum! So hats off (s’cuse the pun – that really did just pop into my brain) to Emma at Little Hot Dog Watson, who has created possibly the coolest and cleverest kid’s hat
Andrea is mum to sons Dylan (5) and Harry (3) and also owner of children’s online travel boutique, Snowballs and Sandcastles. She has travelled non-stop from Africa to China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Australia, LA, New York, Mauritius, Shanghai and all of Europe with 3 months spent in Italy. Travelling with her family inspired her to set up Snowballs and Sandcastles is testament to the belief that travel extends every person’s horizons and educates every age. 1. What
In my opinion the best summer wardrobes are an eclectic mix of high street fashion, designers and independent labels. I love a pre-holiday shop to get excited about travelling but I also love digging out classic pieces that I’ve usually bought abroad and wear on holiday every time. I was recently given this beautiful vintage sari shirt from Lisa Taylor. India is somewhere I am still desperate to go to and so I feel like a
You probably know by now that I am addicted to Zara, especially Zara Kids. I more or less did a supermarket sweep around their boys section before we came away. Apart from liking their things for price and style, it is also an easy option for a busy mum (who is running around like a headless chicken before travelling). If you haven’t ordered online before, everything comes tissue wrapped in
If, like me, you are a lover of the ocean, then you will also love the cool but sporty UK designer swimwear brand I’ve found called To Dive For. When I lived in Australia I was really into surfing and the whole surf culture. My swimwear wardrobe was full of little surf pants, boardshorts (tiny and hardly worth wearing but nevertheless…) and amazing quality bikinis. So when I discovered To Dive For,
As a habitual independent traveller who likes to do her own thing, I rarely stay at resorts but since having a family the idea has become a lot more appealing. I have been looking at places that both my husband and I as well as my son will enjoy. The ease of having T-Rex’s every whim catered for in a resort is undeniably dreamy but I don’t want it to be at the
