This Just Rocks!

...no need to explain why!

Cute!

Sweet dress for a little kitty lover! 

A Dose of Cute

How sweet are these pictures from Zara's new kids collection! This little lady looks quite like how my Lulu will look in year or so when her hair grows a bit longer...

A pretty girl in a pretty print...

Loving the rockabilly quiff and trench coat....a cool customer.

The mop of curls and nautical stripes make one cute fella!

This blonde boy reminds me of my brother John when he was little...

White jeans on a jumping boy - impractical? Yes, but nice nonetheless!

Another shot of the Lulu lookalike. I think I have to get this dress for her.

Too cute for words...

For Tiny Toes

I was searching for shoes for Lulu online and came across this gorgeous site. Unfortunately I'm too late for Christmas delivery but they are so, so pretty aren't they! How beautiful are these suede ballet slippers with bow on the heels....

I'd love Lu to have some brogues to follow in my passion for them... although she'll probably hate them - isn't that always the way with parents putting their taste on to their kids!

These ballet pink Mary Janes are by old-school brand Start Rite... I remember loving my navy t- bar navy Start Rite shoes when I was 5!

Stella's Kids

As well as recently giving birth to her fourth child, Stella McCartney has also launched her latest kids collection for GAP. I love the grey jeans and cool jumpers and the yellow wellies are so cute... I have to get some for Lu!

Cute Kids T

Kinda says it all really!

Keeping It Real

Last night I was having one of my epic phone calls with my friend and I was musing on the week that has just passed and how it's been a busy one with some strange, yet ultimately welcome developments. From fashion shows to meetings with people about possible partnerships; I've enjoyed it.

But the very best moment of the whole week was when I glanced out the window to see Lu in the garden, sitting on a football eating a fistful of apricots! She was so content and so damn cute that it made my week! Literally - it was the best moment of the entire few days...

So today I'm celebrating my little Lulu and her funny little ways. I can't wait to see what she gets up to as she grows into herself further and finds her passions. Currently, stories are The Best Thing! Yesterday I read How to Catch A Star five times in a row with her pointing out all the stars on every single page and when I got to the end, she would turn the pages back to the start and look up at me with a don't you even think about stopping look on her face.

Music is her other current passion and I hope it stays for her whole life. She dances like a loon and spins around in circles till she's dizzy- so far she seems to love Bob Marley, U2 and Stevie Wonder. Not bad taste for 18 months! She is even adept at changing the station on the radio if she finds them to be talking too much!

I love these shots from Misha Lulu of this gorgeous bedroom. Books, bright colours, pictures and toys... a perfect haven for a little dreamer to grow her imagination into something big and strong.

So have a happy Friday my dears, I hope that you too had a golden moment in the week that has passed.

If not, maybe take a leaf out of Lu's book...Keep it real, sit on a football, eat some apricots!

Fantasies and Frocks

Look at these shots! They are from the gorgeous Papier Mache online kids magazine. It's fabulous...like a fashion concept mag for kiddies, although probably more enticing for the Mummies I suspect!

So.Very.Lovely.

Bright Sunshiney Day

I'm just so enthused by the wonderful sunny weather we are having! I spent this afternoon in the park with some other mums and our babies, soaking up the warmth and feeling good!

So these are just some pretty things to celebrate that summery vibe.... the above shoes are for little girls by Stella McCartney; so sweet.

I love the great colour and jaunty swing of this Victoria Beckham number...

Beautiful vibrant bouquet, less of the boring whites ones please brides...

Just a lovely warm shot and I like the trousers...

Another vintage-y feeling shot from Toast, love the hair, the brooch, all of it...

How amazing is this top! I am seriously coveting it...

Have a lovely bright sunny weekend darlings!

Cutie Pies

These are some of Stella McCartney's kids collection for Gap. So cute. I'd love the little knitted dress for Lu. Unfortunately it sold like hot cakes and apparently there are bidding wars on ebay!
