Who could resist it? Not my small boys, that’s for sure – and not many others, I’m thinking. But just in case… there’s a DINOSAUR one too! Oh yes there is! Suitcases covered in vehicles or dinosaurs? Holiday Boy Heaven – even if it’s just going to stay with Granny for the weekend (and girls, [...]
Okay, so this isn’t actually maternity wear… but these Kimonos from Caro London would be simply fabulous for drifting around the house on a summers afternoon, when you have that hot, twitchy pregnant feeling and absolutely NOTHING is comfortable to wear. And I can’t think of anything nicer to roll up into your hospital bag, [...]
So the sun is out, we’re headed towards the summer holidays, and we all want to be outside as much as possible. But of course, a little dash of style here and there never goes astray – and I am a total sucker for a little vintage styling. I really don’t get my bike out [...]
Yes, we know, we’ve shown you The Gifted Penguin before. But look. The sun is out. And Gifted Penguin have Penguin DECKCHAIRS in stock! Can’t you just see yourself now, lounging comfortably in one of these? With a vintage radio burbling quietly in the background, and a glass of something icy tucked carefully in the [...]

Pretty things for small people’s rooms – always a way to our hearts. So when I saw these gorgeous personalised alphabet prints from Modo Creative I was made very happy by their sheer loveliness. And once again, they’re brought to you by a Creative Working Mum – just the way we like it. When looking [...]

ooooh! Look! Go on, would you just LOOK! Now, I know that The Pink One does love her pink things. Just a bit. Oh my, yes, she does. But almost as much she loves COLOUR. When she sees a new pot of crayons her eyes widen and she does a little gasp of glee that [...]
Well now. Yes, I admit it, I’m a sucker for a lovely notepad. What is less well known (though not exactly rare) is that I also happen to be a sucker for all things Penguin (thats the orange book designs, not the black and white cold birds. Though they’re sweet too. Or the chocolate biscuits. [...]
So, last week I was whisked off for a spa break by my loveliest of lovelies friend. Fabulous, yes? Well… actually… Cue much angst. What the heckster was I to put my things in? I needed a big-enough-but-none-too big bag, perfect for overnight-ing sans small people. As is always the way, only when I need [...]
