Escaping Bedtime -- a fun pyjama party shoot with friends

Isn't it great when you get to meet new and talented friends through your children's school friends? And then you get along so well that you begin to hatch a plan to work together? Lucky for me, the amazing photographer, Caroline Irby, who has travelled the globe working with both charities and children's fashion brands, is ...

Holiday gift idea for us mamas -- pretty jewellery from Temple of the Sun

I've said it before a few times, but one of my favourite things about living here in Byron is the amount of creative, entrepreneurial people who live here. There are so many wonderful independent brands based here in Byron Bay, and just when you think you might know them all, you discover yet another one. ...

FOR MUMS

The Babyccino x The Reunion Pop Up

Last weekend was exhausting and yet so much fun! For the first time ever, we co-hosted an event in my very own little town - Paris. The French brands we worked with knocked it out of the park. It was so great meeting local shoppers and brands and seeing all that was going on in ...

The Babyccino x Reunion Pop-Up In Paris

Our little Pop Up is just around the corner!!! Honestly, it is going to be great. We have more than 40 brands coming with beautiful products for babies, kids and some for mums also. It will be a mixture of toys, skincare, clothes and accessories. There are so many great designers and creators, I cannot ...

FOR MUMS

The Sock Solution

So I have given up! With the pairing of matching socks that is. The lost sock is a problem that I am sure has existed since the beginning of time and no one has ever found a satisfactory solution. No matter how much we catch up with our washing, at any given time there is ...

FOR MUMS

The Reunion and Babyccino PopUp -- a local event in the heart of Paris

I have some news to share and I am just a tad bit excited! Together with the lovely Amandine from the Reunion, I will be hosting our first little event in Paris. Amandine has been hosting pop-up events in Paris for more than 3 years now and knows what is going on in Paris better ...

Swifty Scooters -- a fun and safe way to explore and travel

In my ever continuing search to find the ideal transport to cross Paris easily and quickly -- I have come to the conclusion that travelling independently, i.e. with wheels or by foot, is the best way to get from A to B. First and foremost it lets us enjoy the beautiful city we live in. ...

INTERESTING ARTICLES

Let's talk morning routines (and an interesting approach)

We are well and truly back to school over here in Paris. The long nights and slow mornings of the summer holidays are over. It's back to the real life routine. I just read this article and it really struck home with me. As I have mentioned before, mornings are not our forte. We are ...

A vibrant new Autumn/Winter collection at Louise Misha

Okay, okay... I will admit straight away that these photos are not very Autumn/Wintery with the beach as our backdrop, and with barefoot children as my little models. : ) But, this is exactly what I love about the Louise Misha brand: the pieces are beautiful and cheerful, despite the season. This is the new ...

FASHION

Pretty, block-printed tops for women from CLOTH

Justine Hoagland, the founder of CLOTH, reached out a couple months ago to introduce me to a new addition to her beautiful shop: a selection of special pieces for mamas! I was already a massive fan of the baby and children's clothing at CLOTH (so many favourite brands!), so I was excited to see what ...

BOOKS

Mrs Wordsmith

I find teaching kids how to read and expanding their vocabulary such an interesting subject. There are so many different theories and there are so many different methods out there, which makes it hard to figure out what works. Children are also so very different. One of my kids picked up a book at age ...

Wildling Barefoot Shoes

I know you’re usually used to crafting posts from me but when there is a gem I really feel I should share with you; I just can’t resist. Like these more-than-amazing shoes from a German brand called Wildling. Anna and Ran are a couple with three kids and for a long time they lived in ...

FASHION

Sideline -- a favourite women's label from the UK

I first discovered Sideline back in 2015, shortly before we left London and embarked on our travels. Ellen, the founder, is a friend of a friend and reached out to introduce me to her new collection. It's been so wonderful to watch the brand grow and evolve since those early days! What I love most ...

Smock dresses for special occasions, by Charlotte Sy Dimby

Remember when we were kids and had a special outfit for special occasions? Maybe it's a European thing, but kids over here hardly seem to dress up anymore! I love being casual and relaxed, but part of me misses the excitement of dressing up and making an effort. Even I don't have a special outfit ...

FASHION

Nostalgic baby clothes from Van Beren

Babies do seem to come in waves! Just when all the babies I know have started walking and talking, there is a new bunch of cuddly little ones that have turned up in my life (most important of all, our little Bram ;)). So I have had the pleasure of re-discovering the world of baby clothes ...

Alice à Paris -- French fashion for kids and tweens up to age 12

Oh sunshine, how welcome you are after this cold, cold European winter! It is glorious to be able to shed shoes and sweaters and to lap up every sun ray possible! The exciting thing is that for the first full year we have been able to take advantage of our little courtyard. We have planted ...

PARENTING

Our Sunday constitutional

We have a routine in our house, which, until now, I hadn't even identified as as routine. On Sunday I drag everyone out of the house for a Sunday constitutional, as I like to call it: a Sunday stroll. We do this in most weather conditions and it is one of my favourite moments of ...

FASHION

Super soft organic long johns from Little Winnie

Little Winnie is one of the many beautiful children's brands based here in Byron. It also happens to belong to one of my dearest friends, Aimee Winchester, a mama of four and a lover of good pyjamas. Because of friend benefits, we often get to be the pyjama road-testers for all new products (lucky us!), ...

FASHION

Monogrammed coin purses and other accessories from Hedley Field

At the last London ShopUp event in December, I got the kids each their own little leather coin purse, monogrammed with their name on the front. It made for the perfect stocking stuffer for each of them and was one of their favourite Christmas gifts. Alice from Amy & Ivor has set up a division ...

Jumpsuits from Beyond Nine -- for pregnancy and beyond

London-based Naomi Raybould from Beyond Nine recently spent a month here in Byron Bay on holiday with her family. She reached out to me to share a sneak peek at her new linen collection and asked if I would play dress up in her new jumpsuits for a photoshoot with my friend Amelia Fullarton. I ...

FASHION

Favourite clothing brands for tween and teen boys

Let's be honest. Shopping for boys is more difficult than shopping for girls. And shopping for tween and teen boys is even more difficult than shopping for younger boys, so the challenge becomes amplified. Not only are there fewer brand options for tween sizes, but, at that age, kids start to have their own say, ...

THURSDAY THOUGHTS

Teenagers and resisting fast fashion

One of my pet peeves is fast fashion -- buying heaps of cheap clothes on impulse only to discard them after a few wears. But, as my girls get older, I'm finding it more and more challenging to avoid the fast fashion pitfalls. Up 'til now, dressing my children was pretty simple. They are easygoing ...

MATERNITY

Boob, pregnancy and breastfeeding-friendly fashion from Sweden

Boob is a Stockholm-based maternity label offering an extensive collection of clothes for all stages of motherhood. With clever solutions for double use (being pregnancy and breastfeeding friendly), the fashion goes way beyond 9 months.
