10 Things I bought or ate lately…
-Boat Shoes – What do you mean you don’t have a pair yet?! They’re so comfy and cute, and they suit everyone. I bought my first pair when we were on a family holiday in Seville this Spring. They’re handcrafted by a Spanish woman and are so comfy! I’ve been wearing […]
Where I Take the Kids for a London Day Out
Last Sunday, we had a lovely family date at Kensington Palace for the new “Dress Codes” exhibition, which I loved and do recommend if you’re in London. We went in the morning as I find it’s the best time to avoid large crowds. The exhibition was fascinating and quite special, […]
The new Maxi: Who Else Is Swooning Over Ankle-Grazing Skirts?

My love affair with Butter Yellow
My love affair with Butter Yellow started long ago, when I went to visit one of our ceramicists in Puglia, Southern Italy. In a neighbouring village was a ceramics museum (yes, I was in heaven.
