Stylish Family Travel and Fashion Blog London Mum (Ex Luxury Travel PR)
When I decided to include fashion in my blog, I forgot that I might have to do a bit of ‘modelling’. The fact that I have also chosen one of the most revealing genres of fashion also cracks me up no end – I should have done this when I was twenty one…not nearing forty and post pregnancy. Then again, like I’ve said before, we should be proud of our bodies
Sorry for my silence everyone but last week we were in one of my favourite Balearics, Ibiza. No I didn’t take T-Rex clubbing at Pascha but he did enjoy a beachclub or two and time in our lovely luxury family villa Can Sabinas. We went with our friends who have a son a similar age to T-Rex and it worked perfectly. Since having T-Rex we have adopted the ‘rent a villa
Sunny Sundays are made for flower markets. Pre T-Rex I used to love to go for a mosey around Brick Lane and Colombia Road Flower Market, have a spot of lunch at one of the little cafes, a little afternoon drink at one of the pubs. Now I’d think twice because taking a toddler to one of London’s busiest markets is my idea of hell. When a friend recently suggested we
Finally I write about Bikinis! And I managed to do it before the end of the summer – hurrah! After looking at my pale and pasty winter body I was tempted to just don a Bhurkini and be done with it. Then I thought, NO! You are a hot gorgeous mummy who is going to look glorious in all her motherhood on the beach. So rather than thinking your old
As a relatively new (and rather tired) mummy, I am quite unwilling to relinquish my entire holiday to running around after my little one. I have been researching stylish hotels with equally brilliant and fun kids clubs. I knew that they were out there. Here are three that I really like the sound of and will hopefully be able to personally review for you in time to come. Marbella Club
I’ve had quite a few nice days off recently. Since T-Rex started two days (yes two whole days!) at nursery, I have a new found freedom which I had forgotten about. I think I’ve got a bit of Abbie back! Last week I met a friend for lunch in Bermondsey Street, one of my favourites for London food. We went to Jose’s tapas and sherry bar which, I might add, is
The weather was horrendous in London yesterday. Nonstop rain all day meant that both myself and T-Rex were bouncing off the walls – roll on our Ibiza summer holiday in three weeks time! With this in mind I thought I would take a look at some new swimwear for T-Rex. After almost losing him on the beach in Australia earlier this year I am really keen to choose swimwear that
It is always handy to have an emergency play park up your sleeve whilst you are on holiday. Knowing about one that is within close proximity could save you from the inevitable meltdown that might occur when you have, for example, kept your mini traveller strapped in the pram for three hours too long whilst shopping in Italy…as I discovered. The part of Italy I am talking about is Sorrento.
As soon as I saw Binx Walton and her silver Supergas I wanted them. I know, I am a total sucker for marketing and it seems (sadly) a supermodel wannabe but I do need a new pair of summer trainers. The fact that they were metallic sealed the deal. Since living in Peckham, I appear to have gone particularly bling-tastic and these little Italian numbers were just the ticket –
Plymouth has never been on my wish list but our stay just on the outskirts of the city centre, in the pretty area of Stoke was this weekend’s perfect base to explore the area and South Devon. Being toddler-free meant we could enjoy some much needed down time and discover that Plymouth has quite a few hidden gems, one of which was the gorgeous Bed & Breakfast that is Cotehele Villas. As much as
