Ted Baker Sale! #LoveTheSales

Whoever said money can’t buy happiness simply didn’t know where to go shopping. – Bo Derek So how’s the hunt going for that outfit for the kids for the summer wedding/party/family dinner out? I know, it’s a nightmare isn’t it?If you’re like me, the kids get one ‘good’ outfit; it sees them through anything that requires more than their usual daily diet of shorts and tees at this...

The Classic Kids Trainer – New Balance 373

Is it just me, or have trainers just continued to get bulkier over the years? When New Balance sent Bear these 373 trainers, her 10yr old self described then as ‘really different, they’re so cool-looking’. Anyone who has a 10yr old will know that this is Very High Praise. To me, though, they were oh-so-familiar; totally harking back to the trainers which graced my own small feet back in the early 80’s. I love...

Coats for Teen Boys – What A Nightmare (but we FOUND one!)

Clothing teenage boys is a standard parenting horror show of course – I’ve written recently about finding jeans to fit their weird man-child body shape, when they streak upwards but not outwards in their early teens.

Perfect Autumn Essentials – Pretty Jeans & Comfy Boots from Next

Autumn is probably my favourite time of year to dress for – and my daughter appears to have inherited my enthusiasm.
