SS14. ON MY WISHLIST

6 Mar

IO-jacket
What's on my wishlist this Spring Summer?

Although I am not a girly girl, this season I am finding myself drawn to some of those pastel pieces. A little bit of candy pink teamed with white or grey is not too girly, right? I am also in love with the sporty-shoe-sandal-thing. Not everyone's cup of tea, but there is something a little bit cool about a Slide. Step up Isabel Marant. Zara also have a couple of quirky styles, for those of you that are still un-decided and want something a little more throw-away.

An over-sized coat in cream is a must (Hello Ga ... Read More

OUTNET FLASH SALE PICKS

10 Dec

Mawi-gold-ring
The outnet.com (my favorite online designer shopping destination) has just launched a flash sale, with up to 80% off! Perfect timing for Christmas presents and new-additions for oneself. Every year I do like to by myself a little treat too. I bet you do the same?!

Highlights have to be Elle Macpherson intimate from just £7 and Lucy Choi pumps at just £37! I know there is not too much for those of us with a baby-bump, but I can still get excited about all the accessories. And anyway, I won't be pregnant forever.

Try not to get too carried away.

DEAR SANTA

2 Dec

ALex-monroe
To, Dear Santa, pretty please? My ultimate Christmas list, which is perhaps a little extravagant in places. But I'm not greedy so would happily settle for just one or two things. I couldn't possibly just choose one. (Oh go-on, probably the Alex Monroe gold and diamond ring. You will be surprised to know it's not the most expensive thing on my list. I told you I wasn't greedy.)

What's top of your Christmas list this year?!

Love,

MUMZYNOT SALE PICKS

22 Oct

Stella MCCartney check and stripe sweater £225 was £510
Mid-season sales are upon us. Whether you are looking for a Christmas-gift bargain or something new for yourself, lets get inspired.

When it comes to Sale shopping always ask, would I buy it full price? More often than not the answer will be no - so don't get distracted by a discount and stick to your true style.

I love all of the below. (Sorry these all seem dull and dark in color, but that's my mood right now. I always prefer the classics anyway, timeless.) All will work with a bump but will look equally as chic minus one. Even better. Now to decided which is my ... Read More

SUNDAY PASTIME

15 Sep

Charcola-tweed-long-max-Unique-£180
It's a beautiful Sunday morning with not a cloud in the sky. With coffee in hand (my one coffee ration per day, it has to be a morning one!) and a hearty bowl of bran flakes (my current craving) I am browsing online - London Fashion week is no better time to invest in some new threads, right?

I am looking with a pregnant belly in mind, so this is for all you fellow baby-bumpers. Note however, my shopping is often 'non-maternity', so can work with or without.

Enjoy the sunshine, I hope it is shining where you are?!

Love,

PAY-DAY TREATS

30 Aug

Faux-leather
Some shopping inspiration, just in time for pay-day. We are all allowed a little treat (or two) once a month, right?

A styling tip: Shop for looks rather than individual items. I always find that those spur-buys result in unworn clothes with nothing that goes with.

Mango, Faux-leather sleeve detail knit cardigan, £59.99



Mango, loose fit T-shirt, £14.99



 

Mango, Eagles-print trousers, £34.99 (With elasticated, drawstring waist.)



Topshop, relaxed cupro ... Read More

McQUEEN

22 Aug

leather skirt
With an active toddler in tow, shopping trips these days are few and far between. When I do risk it, more often than not, it ends up in a full scale tantrum, on the floor kicking and screaming. A is just not into the whole shopping experience yet. (Give her time.) So for me that fashion-fix has to come from my laptop. It's definitely not the same experience but for now it will have to do.

With this in mind, one of my favorite online destinations has to be The Outnet. Linked to Net-a-Porter, another fave, The Outnet is what I would call their 'outlet store'. All the same designer ... Read More

TWEED

15 Aug

mICHEAL-KORS
Every winter tweed, checks and herringbone seems to make a come-back and this season is no exception. When the likes of Dolce and Gabbana, Dries Van Norten and Lanvin all feature designs using haberdashery fabrics on their AW13 catwalks, you know the trend will filter through to the highstreet in no time.

After a quick reckie of what's new in-store I have spotted a number of cute designs that follow this form. All of which are perfect additions to your wardrobe and can, of course, be worn with a bump - if you are currently that way inclined.

MICHAEL, Michael Kors, ... Read More
