Baby Teething Beach Jewels – MintyWendy

At the risk of sounding like my mum (sorry mum) I can’t believe how cool baby stuff is these days.  This necklace is from MintyWendy and it is a baby teething necklace – I have also adopted it as my new beach necklace which can be worn in the sea and out without getting ruined. I was not looking for teething necklaces, T-Rex is way past that point but I loved

Little Beach Bums – Beanie & Bear Kids Beachwear

I love it when I find really good beachwear for kids and the minute I found the Beanie & Bear website I knew I was going to love it.  Aside from the fact, Noya – Beanie and Bear’s creator – lives around the corner from me (see serendipity!) I love this swimwear for its bright colours, cool cuts and ASS – anti saggy swimwear – factor. Noya, who is also mum

My Beachwear From Coco Bay

If you haven’t yet discovered Coco Bay, it is a cool online holiday shop that sells an array of designer beachwear. It is a dangerous place for mums going on holiday as you can quickly and easily buy gorgeous kaftans, bikinis, swimsuits, beachbags (I could go on) all in one easy click.  I have long been a fan of Coco Bay but since having T-Rex, it has been one of my main go-to’s

8 Comfy Travel Trousers For Kids

  If you’re about to set off on a trip, here are some comfortable travel trousers for your toddler that can also be worn whilst on holiday. I love jeans but they are definitely not good for travelling in and whilst babygrows are necessary for newborns, I always found them annoying when it came to changing in a plane toilet.  I only bought these lightening bolt joggers for T-Rex recently

Little House of Hackney x La Coqueta Collaboration

If ever there was a summer shirt made for T-Rex, it is this one from the new Little House of Hackney x La Coqueta collaboration.  Described as a shirt for smart and stylish boys with a wild side and featuring the signature bold Palmeral print, this is, without a doubt, going to be the most coveted holiday shirt during our forthcoming trip to the Balearics. If you don’t know House of

Monpe – The Ultimate Travel Trouser

  I officially christen these Monpe trousers ‘The Ultimate Travel Trouser’.  I have had my eye on Monpe trousers for a while and am so excited to finally get my hands on a pair.  Monpe are traditionally a work trouser from Japan and are the regarded as the ‘Japanese Jean’.  I have been wearing mine for approximately twenty minutes and I am totally in love with them already – they

10 Not-Too-High-Waisted Bikini Bottoms

I have been debating this season’s high-waisted bikini bottoms with my mum pals.  The consensus is, there are pros and cons. In theory they are ideal for a more voluptuous figure – ample coverage around tummy with the bonus of maybe covering up a scar, enough material at the back to be a bum lifter and best of all you can pretend you are a hot 1950’s siren on the

Three Cool and Crafty Travel Buggies

If you are planning a family holiday you will need an easy and portable buggy, not too big but not too flimsy, comfortable and compact.  There are so many to choose from but these are the three that I would consider. The One You Can Take On The Plane As Hand Luggage – Babyzen Yoyo This buggy folds down into a bag which you can take on the plane and store

Salt Resort Wear – A Sunny Retreat In South Kensington

Ugh! London’s rain on Wednesday was awful!  It probably wasn’t part of the plan for Salt Resort Wear’s beach style event but I actually think it was a genius stroke of luck – never have I felt happier to immerse myself in a closet full of beautifully designed summer clothes and accessories, while it miserably pelted it down outside.  The boutique also played host to three beach inspired designers behind

Spring Fashion For Toddler Boys

Sorry to all the little girls out there but this is a Spring fashion edit for toddler boys.  We are finally shifting out of our (impressive) collection of Christmas tops and jumpers acquired in December – yes I know it’s March but I refuse to let a pile of perfectly good, albeit festive, clothes sit unused after only a week of wear. ‘Santa’s little Helper’ and ‘My Christmas Jumper’ were ditched as
