Molo Snow Boots. Brrrrrilliant. Very Pink, mind. But brilliant.

Molo Snowboots. LOVE them. Even if they are really (REALLY) pink. And you don’t need snow to love them, either (though I have a feeling that when (if) it snows, these boots will be loved so much they’ll have to be prised off a certain small pair of feet with a crowbar). They are brilliant for the chilly windy beaches in November. And if you find yourself out for a stroll on the moors with a wind chill factor of -3 degrees,...

Bestest Christmas Gift Guide – The Super Very-Ever-So-REALLY Soft Dressing Gown.

Is there ANYTHING nicer than a super thick soft dressing gown to snug up in on a chilly morning? Or even NICER on a chilly evening by the fire, curled up with a mug of hot chocolate. And this particular dressing gown from Vertbaudet is one of the thickest plushest ones I’ve come across. It’s a struggle for me to get the girl to wear anything else at the weekend, if I’m honest. It has press stud fastenings down the...

Floppy trousers and a stripy jumper. Does it get any better when you’re 5?

Softest cotton sweater (with a 10% swoosh of cashmere for that extra softy softness) – not too chunky and thick, perfect for layering, enough colour for interest and that quirky star over your shoulder for a touch of...

Review – Brilliant Unisex Winter Coat Ski Jacket

I LOVE this coat. It’s a ski jacket, really, but achingly practical as a school coat too. Packed FULL of quality details that make it worth every penny. Firstly – it’s not lined with a thick fleece or eiderdown padding, so it’s not a massively warm coat on its own. But I was happy with that – adding another fleece layer on a cold day isn’t a hardship, and for boys tearing around I find the thick...

Autumn Spotted! Scrummy McKenzie Patchwork Quilt.

I know, we all love a patchwork quilt. But the trouble I find is that they’re either for babies, or too girlie. And my big boys love a cosy rug as much as the next person. So I jumped a bit when I saw this amazing quilt over on NOTHS – it’s just brilliant. Bright colours, brilliant cosy factor, but will never look ‘too young’ as your boy grows older (or girl of course – I would have LOVED this...
