OFF THE SHOULDER

29 Jul

photo (13)
I wasn't 100% sure about the off-the-shoulder look at first. Perhaps a little too bohemian for my style, and definitely not something I was dying to add to my wardrobe. But as with all these things, you never know before you try. On this occasion I was actually pleasantly surprised.

Looking further into the trend, and now knowing it can work with my more minimal style, I have started to notice more and more off-shoulder pieces I am wanting to add. Although I am still thinking sensibly. As with most trends, it's best not to get too carried away. Sticking to just one or two more c ... Read More

CLEARANCE

16 Jul

clearance
It's important to remember when shopping the sales - even those amazing bargain clearance items - would I want it full price? If the answer is no then look away.

To avoid being fooled by a discount I like to keep things simple. Searching out classic and timeless pieces means you won't go wrong. Stick to what you know (and wear) best. Denim, cami-basics and a great pair of flats are always a great place to start. I also like to search beachwear and bags. We always head off for some kind of winter sun and finding new holiday pieces in the Winter is near-all impossible. Amongst all ... Read More

SHOP SLACKS & CO

6 May

SLACKS-AND-CO
I have always been a big fan of Slacks & Co whilst pregnant, for me they are the British version of Hatch Collection. (Another super-stylish maternity brand that is hard to shop this side of the pond.). Excitingly I have just discovered that favourite mother and baby boutique Blossom now have a few pieces as part of their online maternity collection. How fantastic. The perfect portal to shop for you and your little-one-to-be. I don't know about you but I much prefer filling a large basket all in the same place...

Slacks & Co maternity is basically my everyday style tailo ... Read More

DATE NIGHT

19 Feb

IMG_20140218_182910
Valentines day when you are 36 weeks pregnant is not as exciting/glamorous as it perhaps should be. But I was not going to let any bump get in my way, and my husband and I still managed a little date-night. (Probably one of our last before the new arrival.) Nothing too spectacular, and not far from home - It was a candlelit dinner followed by the cinema. I was most excited about the cinema. I cannot remember the last time we went, literally. I think it was James Bond. The Wolf of Wall Street was fantastic BTW.

For date-night then, the perfect look (in my eyes) thanks to ... Read More

PICK ME UP

14 Jan

Topshop check shirt
I am now 32 weeks pregnant and feel like my wardrobe needs a little pick me up. By day I have been living in those favorite maternity skinnies, chunky knits and mannish shirts. The investment jeans are still going strong but up top I am struggling. Thanks to that inevitable baby bump, non-maternity styles are starting to look simply too small. There is nothing more unattractive than a pregnant woman trying to squeeze out the last few wears of her regular wardrobe when it just doesn't fit. Today's outfit (maternity jeans 9London and shirt Ralph Lauren) is my case in point. I just a ... Read More

Mango, loose fit T-shirt, £14.99



 

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

Even though I am no longer pregnant I still love looking at all the new maternity wear collections and helping you guys find the best bits!

Since I was pregnant, over a year ago now, I have really notice how much more choice there is when it comes to stylish and fashionable maternity clothes. Which is fab if you are currently pregnant and wanting to update your maternity wardrobe.

I spotted this gorgeous spot print maternity top in Mamas and Papas over the weekend and just had to share it with you. The frill neck and flared sleeves are so pretty! I also love this ... Read More
