This week we had a few days away in Bristol. Going away with children is having to be ready for everything, so it’s quite hard to pack light. I thought I’d share two of the items I found essential for…
As I’ve said before, I do love stripes on boys. I think they can look really smart, but also brighten up an otherwise (often) dull colour palette. Let’s face it, a lot of the time, darker colour bottoms are easier…
I’m astounded today for Trendy Thursday. As always I’ve been stocking up in sales and buying the next size up in readiness for next year. Although N has been growing heightwise recently, he’s still (according to standard sizes) an age…

Where to find the perfect childrens joggers that are comfy and fit well, as toddlers, but also recommendations once they’re older.
With the start of the school year last week (or earlier/later depending on your area – I was surprised at the variation in dates this year, which is insane really), it’s brought with it a definite Autumn chill to the…
