MOTIVATION

6 Sep

Iris-and-ink
It's a boring Friday night in (We are preparing for a wedding tomorrow which means I need to make sure i'm rested) and the football is on, so I am doing a spot of virtual shopping. Nothing else for it.

Instantly love this, the perfect leather dress by Iris and Ink. (I have been looking for the one for ages.) Perhaps not the most suitable maternity attire but definitely motivation to get back to pre-pregnancy shape after #2 arrives. Think I might just get it so I have something to work towards....I quite like those blue boots too.

Mango, loose fit T-shirt, £14.99



 

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

MAXI DRESSING

T-Bags, jersey maxi dress
Spring had sprung and Summer is finally breaking through. This means one thing - wedding season is upon us!

There is nothing more exciting than shopping for a new wedding outfit. This year you may be feeling slightly apprehensive, thanks to a growing baby bump, but there is really no need to panic. Some of my favorite maternity and ready-to-wear labels have some stunning options to choose from. I have five weddings this year so as you can imagine I am constantly on the hunt for the perfect wedding look - This is season I am finding myself drawn to the maxi dress....

JESSICA ALBA PREGNANT?

15 May

Jessica-Alba-pregnant
This is maybe a little controversial and I don't usually like to spread rumors.... But I was just reading about Jessica Alba's Honest company, looking at pics from their 10th anniversary celebration and i'm thinking (I don't know why, I just have an inkling) Is Jessica maybe pregnant with baby no.3...? She just seems to have some sort of pregnancy-aura and the baggy clothes don't help fuel my suspicions. Is that the first signs of a very teeny-tiny baby-bump?

Watch this space. If I am right, you read it on Mumzynot first!

When it comes to maternity style Halle Berry is a fan of the laid back look. However, she still manages to look -Mumzynot-chic even on her dressed down days.

Pictured on the school run, the stunning mum-to-be, dressed her growing bump in some boyfriend jeans and retro-inspired print blouse.



Get the look with this over-sized shirt from Johnny Was and Topshop maternity boyfriend jeans. Great with a bump, or without.

A LIFESTYLE COACH, WORN ON YOUR WRIST!

14 May

UP-wristband
Gwyneth Paltrow is said to be a massive fan, and after reading a recent article in the Daily Mail (Yes I know, of all places!) I am really liking the sound of this new fitness/lifestyle craze....

The UP wristband is described as a 'lifestyle coach'. It's a simple, rubber bracelet that contains a built-in motion sensor and Motionx GPS, that monitors your daily activity and reacts accordingly. It vibrates if you have been inactive and a stopwatch monitors any activities.

Working alongside an iphone app, the UP wristband by Jawbone, estimates your daily calories burn ... Read More
