Finally! I can bend over to clean up my darling T-Rex’s crap off the floor and not give some poor unsuspecting soul an eyeful of my behind whilst doing so! Mom Jeans are back and ladies I’m telling you – it’s soooo comfy. No longer do we have to pretend we are 17 year olds in our skinny jeans but instead be allowed to show off our curves and
I spent ages last year trying to find the perfect black swimsuit and every time I did find one, it was sold out. So I’m starting early this year. There are loads of good reasons to own a black swimsuit – I always think they are like the little black dress of your beach wardrobe – not LBD but LBS! They are an investment and when you are having a fat
I have been waiting for some sunshine to show off T-Rex’s new Sunuva swimwear. I almost braved our local lido in December but I couldn’t face the cold in the end, not even for the sake of fashion! Luckily we had a little mini break to Valencia lined up in January and the sun was well and truly out – hurrah! Last year T-Rex’s swimwear choice was sharks but this
Just before Christmas we were sent the cutest pair of water resistant gloves from kids travel brand, Snowballs and Sandcastles. Getting gloves on T-Rex usually goes something like this: erratic kicking (in my face) squirming and rolling to rival a WWWF champion, at which point I retreat defeated and we go to the park with a gloveless T-Rex. The green dragon allure of these gloves, however, serve as a great distraction
A couple of years ago when I was pregnant with T-Rex, I bought a gold dress (above) from Peckham Rye Indoor Market…I know classy huh? This last minute purchase was an attempt to look vaguely decent at a wedding whilst also being a swollen butterball at nine months pregnant. Well, people were probably being kind but I couldn’t have asked for a better reaction to my £20 gold dress – it was a hit.
There is something about kids in a duffle coat don’t you think? Especially boys – the look seems synonymous with scallywag children getting up to no good, definitely a fitting look for T-Rex. This winter, I have a bigger, taller T-Rex who is harder to fit in a pram with his bulky puffer coat of last year and so the wool duffle is appearing to be a winner on
While I was in Bali I met up with my friend Prue – yes she lives there the lucky thing! She is the amazing creative behind my Bikinis and Bibs logo. We had a fun day at Alila Uluwatu shooting her Balinese kaftan collection for her kaftan brand Gypsy Thing, here are the results – some serious pouting and posing from me which cracked me up after each photo but how
I’m getting quite good at this selfie business aren’t I?(!!!?) I just need to learn how to do photoshop so I don’t have weird pipes sticking out of the top of my arm. Anyway, I am so excited to see these multicoloured faux-fur coats in at the moment because I bought mine last year at a market in Valencia and I love it! It’s the one good reason for cold dreary
T-Rex’s little package from Postcards Home was timely as I have just moved him into his big bed. Having some new pyjamas and a cute pillow was the perfect addition to his settling in. I found Postcards Home on Instagram and have been obsessed ever since. It epitomises my ideas of shopping and travel, bringing back something that you love and you know, will look amazing in your home. It is a
I recently bought two new denim skirts which I wouldn’t normally do in winter. I always associate denim skirts with summer but I’m sick to death of my jeans and leggings already so thought it was time to get a bit more creative. I like a denim skirt with tights and trainers or an ankle boot works well. I personally think long boots look better with longer skirts as opposed to shorter or knee length
