Mulberry Alexa Handbag

| December 13, 2012

If there’s just one luxurious item on any Mum’s Christmas wishlist it must be a Mulberry handbag. The classic designs and quality of Mulberry evoke a timeless elegance and style.

My favourite Mulberry handbag is the Mulberry Alexa Handbag.

Mulberry Alexa Handbag

The Mulberry Alexa handbag is inspired by British style icon Alexa Chung and is a mix of the classic Mulberry bags the Bayswater and the men’s Elkington briefcase.

The Mulberry Alexa Handbag looks incredible whether worn casually with jeans or dressed up with a suit. It features:

  • Postman’s lock closure
  • Belt strap and buckle detailing
  • Tree lining and suede flap lining
  • Internal slip and zip pockets
  • Internal metal Mulberry fob detail
  • Plaited top handle
  • Detachable and adjustable leather shoulder strap

The handle drop on the Mulberry Alexa Handbag is 11cm and the shoulder strap measures 112cm to 128cm.

So hubby, if you’re reading this…

Vertbaudet Bubble Skirt

| December 11, 2012

This Vertbaudet bubble skirt is absolutely divine. The design is simple and wonderfully wearable. The Vertbaudet bubble skirt is fashioned in a cute puffball style and has integrated leggings to keep your baby girl warm during the cool months ahead. The print on the skirt is detailed with little flower motifs in a delicate pink and deep purple colour.

It’s perfect for play being comfortable and fun. I love the deep purple colour which goes with so many other colours and it’s also available in a dark green colour. The bubble skirt is 100% cotton and is mid-leg length with a ribbed elasticated waistband. The integrated purple leggings are stretch jersey and are made from 95% cotton, 5% elastane.

Imogen loves wearing this bubble skirt with her brown leather boots.

Available in sizes 2 years to 7/8 years from Vertbaudet.

Clarks Mara Sand GTX Boots

| December 10, 2012

For over a month I’ve been wearing a pair of Clarks Mara Sand GTX Boots. These gorgeous black leather Gore-tex boots were kindly sent to me by Clarks to review.

As a busy Mum I’m out and about daily with my baby so footwear has to look great, be practical and most importantly offer comfort.

Despite the weather I love walking and enjoying the great outdoors. For exercise and pleasure I walk everywhere in London with my baby in her buggy or toddling alongside me. For several hours each day we pound the pavements and run around the many parks and green spaces.

Clarks Mara Sand GTX Boots are styled on the classic long-leg riding boot. There’s subtle stitching on the boots and a simple buckle strap that can be adjusted at the top of the boots. The leather is soft and has a great shine.

One of the best features of the Clarks Mara Sand GTX Boots is that they’re 100% waterproof and breathable. Made with a Gore-tex membrane they prevent moisture from penetrating whilst letting perspiration out, allowing my feet to breathe and preventing them from overheating.

I’ve found this combination creates the perfect environment for maximum comfort and the right temperature whether I’m walking in a busy shopping mall or outdoors.

Clarks Mara Sand GTX Boots look great with trousers or skirts and can be dressed up or down making them extremely wearable for all occasions. They’re smart, stylish and incredibly comfortable.

Regardless of rain or snow this winter my feet will be kept dry and I’ll be enjoying all the elements. You can find out more about the technology used with Clarks Gore-tex waterproof shoes and boots.
