Exploring Motherhood and Makeup with Emma Grimes

October 12, 2024

I’m back in the interview chair and thrilled to share my chat with the incredibly talented, Irish Content Creator, Emma Grimes. Emma has a long standing presence online, showcasing her makeup skill in everyday looks and inspiring makeup recreations. Emma’s motherhood experience has been of immense pain and joy and I am honoured to chat with her about it.

Trigger Warning – Infancy loss is discussed during this interview so if you feel you are not in a position to hear about Emma’s experience, you can skip ahead at the warning. If you need support in this area you can visit www.pregnancyandinfancyloss.ie.

I can’t thank Emma enough for giving me her time and being so generous in sharing her experiences as a fierce Mama. We talk about her outstanding makeup skills, motherhood and of course maternity fashion, You’re in for a real treat.

You can listen our chat here and you can watch the interview, here.

Hi, I’m Jo Leggiero, founder of Mother Dragon.

I'm an Australian/Italian and I've been calling Dublin home for the past fifteen years. I love fashion and the power it has to make you feel incredible. Give me lipstick, coffee, good food, time with my two little fire crackers, Lucille and Remy and time with my family and friends and you have me sorted. It has been such an incredible journey, like pregnancy, seeing Mother Dragon being born and I'm so glad you have come to visit.

Jo

Just added to the shop, this beautiful Seraphine Cotton nursing friendly top. With an elastic waist and invisible zips, this top will be a great addition to your maternity and breastfeeding wardrobe.

Don't forget to read all the Mother Dragon's latest article on the blog including my thoughts on the collapse of Seraphine and what next.

Bras
Vests
Clips 
Zips

You name it.
Breastfeeding, like motherhood was not what I expected. The right clothing made such a difference. Comfort, access, and a bit of style.

Shop these pieces and more.
