Strolling through the forest in my black block suede boots from New Look, this darling red coat on my back c/o Jacques Vert, I felt like a 30 something (not so) Little Red Riding Hood.
As it's Wool Week, I have a special edition of my Wonderful Women series featuring the two entrepreneurs, Cat and E-J — or Emma — who are two friends who live in the UK but hail from New Zealand.
Life is busy right now. Crazy busy but I've never been happier. I love being rather manic, it's my default mode, and doing what I love: blogging and all that that entails is constantly stretching and stimulating me. I feel ALIVE people!
I've never been one to sacrifice style over comfort. Even at eight months pregnant you'd find me in my fave pair of block heels, whilst my Fendi Baguette bag never left my side during my twenties despite the fact that it's probably the world's smallest bag and I could barley fit my lipstick in let alone my purse, keys and phone!
I've adored fashion forever (literally).
I loved nothing more as a young girl than dressing up in my mum's dresses, adorning her statement 80's jewels around my neck and strutting around the house in her heels (a shiny silver t-bar pair were my absolute favourites), I just wish she'd kept them for me now!
I recently read an article that said 1 in 3 women LOVE cleaning! Whaat!
Like Monica from Friends, apparently one third of the female population are hardwired to love cleaning, washing, scrubbing, drying and polishing! *shocked face, need a lie
Britmums Live, the biggest parenting conference in the UK was a complete and utter whirlwind this weekend just gone, and as you can gather from the title, a wonderful one at that.
I've always been a huge fan of fashion illustration and one of my favourite artists in this field is my incredibly talented friend, artist, and blogger Cara Gray.

Holly McGlynn is a Dublin-born, London-living fashion photographer. A graduate from the prestigious Goldsmiths, University of London (where I also received my BA and MA from), she was nominated for the Irish Fashion Photographer of the Year 2014 and 2015.
I love working with me&i and have collaborated with them for years now-they're a seriously cool, super-fun, vibrant Swedish brand for kids (and ladies too), that really embody that retro vintage vibe for modern families everywhere.
Look at the bright kids line below-bursting with funky prints, truly happy-making fashion for kids of all ages.
