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

What I’d Like For Mother’s Day *hints*

I can’t believe Mother’s Day is this Sunday and even more so, I can’t believe this is my third one as a mum. If I’m totally honest, having a Sunday snuggle on the sofa with T-Rex in this cold weather, will be more than enough this Mother’s Day but…if anything else were to be planned, here are a few things that have caught  my eye. Afternoon Tea at Sketch, London

Magical Lantern Festival – Chiswick House, London

  If you haven’t managed to get to see this yet, you should – it’s amazing.  There is still a week left to visit the debuting Magical Lantern Festival at Chiswick House in London.  We went last night and it was a truly lovely evening although a bit cold so wrap up warm.  T-Rex had a late night and although it wasn’t without a couple of tantrums, plus a pot

The Body Camp – Ibiza

If someone offered me the chance to go on a health retreat anywhere in the world, I’d choose Bali or Ibiza. Both have amazing spiritual connections and holistic vibes and just stepping foot on these magical islands changes your state of mind.  These days Ibiza is the much easier option for me, Bali is reserved for ‘parent escapes’. So when a friend told me they were setting up The Body Camp,

Mom Jeans – Topshop

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

Three Alpine Chic Family Chalets

I am desperate to take T-Rex skiing – goodness knows why, he’ll probably be off piste before I know it.  The mountains are really the only cold place I’d substitute for a beach holiday but I am yet to experience skiing with a toddler, surely there’s nothing to it right?  Whilst everyone has been posting pics of their chic snow outfits and enjoying their après ski, I have been living

Search For The Perfect Little Black Swimsuit (LBS)

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

Bioparc – An African Zoo In Valencia

Weird concept I know, to have an African zoo in Spain but our discovery of Bioparc in Valencia was actually a very cool find.  I’m really not into the idea of zoos but since having T-Rex, me and the zoo have become good friends.  They are a good family day out and it seems that many zoos these days are conservation projects for endangered species which makes me feel better about
