Baby Shop of the week - Little Bird for Mothercare





Little Bird floral skirt

Little Bird turn ups

I am a massive fan of Jools Oliver, in fact her baby book "Minus Nine to One" is my favourite pregnancy book of all time. I love her honest and normal approach to parenting, despite being one half of the most wealthy couple in England. She also has great style. Laid back yet effortlessly stylish, she rocks a pair of jeans like none other. Dressing in my favourite designer Isabel Marant for the launch of her new range of children's clothing range was a sure sign Little Bird for Mothercare was going to be just my cup of tea.

Born in the 70s, Jools is the youngest of three daughters and is an inspirational, hands-on Mum. As a mother of four, Jools embraces strong family values and plays a crucial role as the supportive, strong woman beside her husband, Jamie. The Little Bird journey began with a visit by the Mothercare project team to Jools' home to gain an understanding of what she loves; and to see first-hand the things that have inspired her personal style to help her design an eclectic range that reflects her unique, modern approach to motherhood. Little Bird is a distinctive and fresh expression of this collaboration.

The Little Bird range includes gorgeous newborn clothing to fun and eclectic boys and girls clothing that can be easily mixed and matched. I had to stop myself from buying the entire range, but did come away with a pair of jeans, Little Bird top, floral skirt and dress. Both the jeans and top can be worn by the Dude when he grows up too which is a huge bonus.

You can buy Little Bird for Mothercare online here.

DIY Isabel Marant


The divine Isabel Marant shirt and Acca skirt from Matches

Mango at ASOS dupe

I LOVE Isabel Marant, if I ever win the lottery I am dressing in Isabel Marant from head to toe and nothing else. Lately I am desperate for the leather Acca skirt from Matches online but cannot justify £620. However the one good thing about Isabel Marant is that everyone else seems to love her cool French style too, so pretty much everything from high tops to embellished jackets are replicated on the high street.
Anyway I was over the moon when I spotted a near perfect dupe for the Acca skirt by Mango on ASOS  for a steal at £60. I am going to be rocking it with my Topshop faux Isabel Marant Dicker boots and a super soft check shirt.
(Will update with an outfit shot soon.)
