We kicked off our summer holidays in STYLE yesterday by taking a trip to London for the show of the summer! The Wind In The Willows is on at the Palladium theatre for the holiday period and we absolutely loved it. No, we LOVED it! This new musical based on the famous Kenneth Grahame novel is a Julian Fellowes collaboration (well, if he’s good enough for Downton) and stars Rufus Hound as the amazing Toad of Toad Hall (could you get […]

It’s been the must-watch of the summer so far but on Monday it’s all over, we will have a crowned couple and Love Island will be put to bed until next year when we can get our fix again! Whether you’ve loved it or loathed it you would have had to be hiding under a rock not to notice it and if you missed those amazing abs then you truly missed out! So what ARE we going to do for the […]

How has it been a year since I was writing about Jimmy going off to big school? Seems bonkers how quickly this year has gone but alas gone it has and today marks the first day of the summer holidays for my terrific two, the last before they become a trio and we are going to make the most of every single holiday day that we have because before we know it, 6 weeks will have flashed past us and […]

29 week’s pregnant – the end is in sight – nearly! Maybe it’s even closer than I think… Jonny thinks I am completely and utterly mad to talk to the experts who all say my due date is 5th October and think they are wrong but I can’t help it. I feel like I could be a month further along because my last period was so light (not like me) and because this pregnancy was originally a twin pregnancy I […]

The first few weeks, months or perhaps even years of your children’s life can pass in a blur of tiredness. Then, one day, you stumble upon that magical thing you’ve heard so much about, ‘The Routine’. Your children start falling into a pattern. They go to bed at the same time every night and you’ve finally got some time to yourself. For some, this happens very quickly but for others, there is a real struggle to find a bedtime routine […]

We have had our abroad holiday for the year already, Majorca was perfect a couple of week’s ago but with a burgeoning baby bump I feel my aeroplane trips are probably over for the summer. This doesn’t mean we won’t be taking full advantage of some stay-cay destinations right here in good old Blighty! We have trips planned to Dorset for Camp Bestival (with maybe a beach day at Lulworth Cove on the way home), a week in Cornwall (oh […]

My school uniform came exclusively from Harrods and I remember thinking at the time how special that was! I went to the famous store with my Mum, only once, to buy my skirt (x1), blazer (x1 and in such a huge arm length it’s STILL too big) and shirts (I think my Mum allowed 3). It was very expensive but extremely exciting both to be in THAT store and to be buying something hardly anyone else could… I went to […]

When Natalie from Style Me Sunday asked me if I would take part in her Warrior Woman 3 campaign, FIERCE, I immediately said yes. YES! Emphatically YES! Because I wanted to get naked with a bunch of super cool and good looking media-ites then have my picture taken? Yeah, I REALLY wanted to be in THAT situation… I’m THAT confident? Nope… In fact, the exact opposite. Natalie is gorgeous. And SO self-assured in her skin. She oozes this body confidence that […]

Going away on holiday with a pair of small children is never as easy to pack for as back in the day when ‘me’ was all I had to think about… Of course for Jonny nothing has changed. He packs himself enough pants, shorts, a pair of flip flops and a few other bits and bobs, takes a strange proprietorial ownership of documents, passports and money and then literally that is it. For him. For me and it’s not quite […]
