Star Mela: Solution For A Summer Wardrobe

This morning, I emptied my black handbag with a view to swap it for something ‘lighter’ suitable for Spring. However, I obviously had temporary amnesia as upon searching my cupboard, I didn’t actually have many (any) suitable Spring bags.

Earlier this month I stumbled across Star Mela. I love most of their items, especially the kaftans and the bags and knew they would have a solution.

Currently deciding between the Estee Lem Bag that would be more versatile and and the Leila Emb Bag that would match my neon orange shellac…

What do you think?

Interview with Pepa & Co : Spanish Children’s Clothes

Whenever I ask a mother what their child is wearing, more often than not, it is from Spain. Spanish clothes are becoming more and more popular in the UK as some people veer towards a more traditional way of dressing their sprogs. The Royals have strongly influenced this trend and Pepa & Co is now one of Kate Middleton’s trusted boutique for her children.

See Prince George and Princess Charlotte on their recent tour to Canada.

After 5 years living in London, working closely with lovely mums and their children, Pepa Gonzalez decided to start up Pepa & Company. Her aim was to bring back smart and quality clothes to a new generation of children.

The inspiration for Pepa & Company comes from her large Spanish family. Her mother (a mother of 5) used to be told

Your boys look like little princes.

The sentiment stuck with her. She liked to see children dress as children. The range are handpicked, quality and smart Spanish clothing, in both classic and contemporary styles. There’s a high attention to detail at affordable prices.

BONNIE: Pure Wool Jumpers

Antonia set up BONNIE after an unsuccessful search for a pure wool cardigan for one of her daughters. The high street knitwear was a synthetic mix which she knew wasn’t going to last, wouldn’t be warm and she wasn’t prepared to buy cashmere at cashmere prices … ‘you have to grow into that’ she exclaimed!

Antonia with her family

All the BONNIE designs were drawn at her kitchen table and were then lovingly made in a Scottish mill in the Borders. BONNIE jumpers are very soft, come in great styles and colours. Most importantly are machine washable. You really can wear them everyday. Mothers and children alike love them because they are sensibly priced, look fabulous and the wool warm & durable.

The quality, price and timeless style creates a wonderful line and would be a great addition to a child’s wardrobe. I’m hoping she starts a line for adults!

A Spring In My Step

Today was the first day of the Summer Term. For my son. Although cycling to school this morning, it felt like it was my first day back and I had forgotten to wear my summer uniform. Many of the mother’s sailed into school looking tanned (not from 4 days of UK sun, I can assure you that!) gorgeous and kitted out in a new Spring wardrobe.

I had to sort it out. I couldn’t do a rain dance hoping this fine weather will pass. So, I weeded my wardrobe and made 3 piles-

charity
chuck
keep for next year

There is a now large whole in my wardrobe that needs filling.

So starting from the bottom up, I have decided these Silver Superga’s will add a spring in my step and I’m tempted by these little things from The White Company She never knows her luck!
