Do we talk to our kids too much?

May 19, 2026

Parenting comes with endless opinions, especially when it comes to how much we should or shouldn’t talk to our children. In this honest reflection, one mum shares why the everyday conversations, awkward chats, silly moments and all, reminded her that sometimes “talking too much” might not be such a bad thing after all.

The Met Gala & The Exhaustion Of Having A Take On Everything

May 8, 2026

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXp8kZqkVSu/?igsh=MXRjcGt0am10azNvMw== Every year, I look forward to the Met Gala.

The references hidden inside silhouettes and fabrics. I love learning the theme each yea[...]

I Hate Exercise

September 20, 2025

I hate exercise. But I’ve started walking, not for weight loss, not for stats, just because my body needs something. No plans, no pressure, no guilt. Some days I go. Some days I don’t. But I’m done chasing perfection. This is just me, moving. That’s all it needs to be.

Sneaker Fatigue & The Samba Mary Jane: Why I’m Waiting for Preloved

August 17, 2025

If you’re even mildly interested in fashion or sneakers, chances are you’ve seen the new Adidas Samba Mary Jane making waves. It’s a sleek reinterpretation of the classic Samba, feminine and sporty. Think classic three-stripes, gum sole, but with a Mary Jane-style velcro strap that gives it a fresh look. It’s a great shoe. But […][...]

When Your Outfit Throws Off Your Whole Day: Dressing for Mood, Style & Function

June 26, 2025

You know those days when your outfit just feels off and suddenly, so do you? A rainy morning forced me to choose function over feeling, and it threw my whole mood. I’m sharing how style, mood, and confidence are more connected than we often realise and what to do about it.

Some days during pregnancy, getting dressed feels easy. Some days nothing feels right.

Dressing for the body you have now and finding pieces that are comfortable, practical and still feel like you matters more than people realise.

Denim and I haven’t always been on the same page. For a long time it was black jeans or nothing. If it didn’t feel right, I assumed it was my body that was the problem.

What I’ve learned (and what I wish I knew sooner) is that denim is never just one thing. It behaves differently depending on how it’s made and that changes everything.

Some denim has stretch, which gives you that bit of give when your body is changing or growing.
Some is more rigid, which holds its shape but doesn’t always move with you.

Some is lightweight and soft, draping easily over the body.
Others are heavier and more structured, sitting away from you and creating shape.

And then there’s fit. Straight, relaxed, skinny, barrel. Not better or worse, just different ways of sitting on a changing body.

That’s why I love pieces like this.
Easy and no overthinking. The kind of thing you can put on and feel like yourself in, whatever stage you’re at.

There’s a reason denim never really leaves us.
You just have to find the version that works for you. 

What's your relationship like with denim right now?

I was twinning with my mannequin today in my denim dungarees and realised I have a denim pinafore as well. I lived in both pieces post partum and wouldn't be without them in my wardrobe.
Tell me which do you prefer, denim dungarees or a denim pinafore?
