Introducing My New Venture : The London Mummy Shop

So, I feel slightly guilty to my lovely little sideline, TLM Edit. It has been thoroughly neglected since I started it just under a year ago. I have been so busy with The London Mummy that my little fashion & accessories website has played second fiddle. Until now! I have spent the last couple of weeks, tweaking, choosing, updating and CURATING a bright & fun section of fashion and accessories from all over the world to help get you ready for Summer.

How Does It Work?

You go on to my website and buy something and it gets sent out to you!

Whilst I am at it… If you think your brand would work well on TLM Edit (new, small, start up, accessories or apparel) please drop me an email hello@thelondonmummy.com – I would love to hear from you!

So here are a few my top picks!

Tassel Bracelets in Grey, Black or Burgundy £15

Mochila Cross Body Bag : Pink, Green & Orange £95

If you prefer a smaller cross body bag, this is the one for you. I love the tassles!

Evelyn Bellucci Studded Black Swimsuit £49

I am always on the hunt for a foxy but flattering swimsuit and I think this ticks both boxes!

Navy Blue T Shirt with Stone Details £45

It’s all about embellishment at the moment and this T Shirt has small encrusted flowers on it.

Naftul Embroidered Trim Dress : White £150

This was a great hit last summer, so I have bought it back again. So pretty and wearable at the office or the beach.

Flamingo Metallic Wallet £35

Too much excitement in one wallet!!

Large Open Star Earrings : Gold, Silver or Rosegold £61

Who doesn’t love a star. If you embracing on the statement earrings – these are good ones to start with.

Triple Star Earrings in Silver, Gold or Rosegold £86

If you are looking for the wow factor – these are for you!

Quote Me Necklace £61

This is so original! Also comes in gold and rose gold.

Floral Skin Slip On Sneakers £385

Ok, this wouldn’t be a frivolous purchase but the slip on sneaker is here to stay and I haven’t seen any like this on the high street.

Artemis Persefone Orange Sandal £79

I ahem a great selection of sandals from Artemesia and these are my front runners. If you prefer more candy colours or a tassle – you may like these?

So, what do you think? I usually hide behind other people so it is slightly scary putting myself on the line!

Anyway, lovely peeps, have a very Happy Easter

School Run Style : The Perfect Spring Bags For Mums On The Run

The only type of bag I have used since I waved goodbye to my last nappy (my kids nappies!) is a cross body bag. When you are carrying scooters and book bags, the last thing you need to be carrying is a bulky handbag. The perfect cross body bag has to go over the shoulder, sit nicely on the hip, have enough room for keys, phone, wallet and maybe a packet of baby wipes (that I still seem to need) and look effortlessly cool but not like you are trying too hard. Get it right and it will update your look and be the perfect addition to your wardrobe to carry you into Spring.

This week I popped into House of Fraser to see all the new handbags that had landed. It was not only vast, but neatly laid out with plenty of shoulder candy to feast the eyes on.

Here are my top 6 cross body bags, that will take you from Winter to Spring, effortlessly and stylishly.

Nica Finn Cross Body Bag £49

This bag is a classic shape that evades any current trend, allowing you to use it year in year out. It also comes in Pale Pink and Grey – perfect for summer.

Pieces Finne Navy Flapover Tassle Bodybag £50

I love this boho style bodybag. The tassle is also super cute and the soft fabric makes it a very comfortable wear.

Modal Lily Cross Body Bag £89

Metallic is a strong trend this year but if it is too much to put on your body, a little nod to the trend with this silver chrome cross body bag will keep you on point.

Jane Normal Snake Skin Tassle Bag £25

I am a sucker for animal print. Whilst I think leopard print is better in winter months, this lighter colour (mock) snake-skin is perfect for sunnier days.

Dune Ejay Suede Chain Handle Bag £65

I love this moss-green suede bag. Another popular colour this year. It is super smart and will hide the dirt too.

Biba Gretel Cross Body Bag £99

This is my top pick. It has 4 spacious compartments inside so no rummaging for your bus pass. It is a good length and great quality which could withstand some stern pulling from a toddler. Brown goes better with neutrals and blues which I am envisaging will play a large part in my summer wardrobe – well, blues anyway! biba2

It is so comfortable, I even absent-mindedly wore it whilst I was writing this post!!
