It’s Quick-Fix Friday, ladies! And today I’m showing you how I’ve upgraded my mumsy changing bag in a few easy steps. Basically, I bought a shiny new bag in Zara ready for Bristol Fashion Week (as you do), and at the same time I was buying it, I thought: ‘Hang on a...
How to be a stylish ...

So, as promised, here is the interview I did at Bristol Fashion Week with personal stylist Emmeline Stevens from The image Consulting Company (Emmeline is also the personal stylist for Centre Court shopping centre in Wimbledon). I wanted to find out her top tips for making us all super-stylish...
BFW round-up

Just thought I’d share with you some of my favourite catwalk pics from Bristol Fashion Week last Friday, as well as some style tips I picked up from the experts during the day. Scenes from the catwalk Styling tips I picked up… TRENDS TV stylist Mark Heyes shared some of the...
Bristol Fashion Week...
posted by Lucy
Wow, what a day. Officially pooped, and not from looking after a bubba all day, which makes a nice change (missed him, though, sshhh…). So, after a mix-up with my booking, I managed to catch my train to Bristol with a minute to spare. Great start. Brilliantly, though, my Brizzle cabbie...
Bristol Fashion Week...

Right, the catwalk how’s kicked off and Mark Heyes and Andrew Barton are telling us all about the high street trends – ice cream shades, sports luxe, tribal… Pics not loading (obviously, first technical hitch), so I’ll upload later but will keep...
Bristol Fashion Week...
posted by Lucy
So I’m on the train and ready to go. I was ready an hour early this morning (not that I’m excited or anything – a whole day to myself spent shopping, eyeing up outfits, style-spotting and oohing over catwalk shows?! I could barely sleep last night with anticipation. Oh no,...
Fashion fever begins...

It’s nearly here! The live blogging event at Bristol Fashion Week kicks off tomorrow and I’ve just about made all the last tweaks to my outfit, charged the iPad and iPhone ready for furious Tweeting and blogging action and written list upon list of baby do’s and don’t's...
Front-row mummy!
posted by Lucy
Something exciting is happening in my life. Oh yes. On Friday, mummies, I shall be FROW-ing at Bristol Fashion Week during their live blogging event at The Mall, Cribbs Causeway. In a huge deviation from my usual daily mummying activities, I shall be hotfooting it Westward, my bag filled with...
Happy MummyLook Day
posted by Lucy
Hello mummies. I know it’s Look Good Feel Good month on my blog, but I’m neither looking nor feeling good at the moment due to a baby with a chest and throat infection. New mummies will know the drill – up all night with them waking up crying; drained all day trying to keep...
Quick-fix Friday
posted by Lucy
The first in a new series of speedy tips and tricks to make life easier/more beautiful. Because if there’s one thing us mums need, it’s a bottle of wine with a straw the second the kids are in bed. Oh, no, ahem, I mean time, yes, that’s what I meant: time. Second to sleep,...
Pimp my kitchen
posted by Lucy
I thought this could become a regular feature, as we spend enough damn time in the bloomin place – washing bottles, pureeing food, preparing tea after school, washing sports gear – that we might as well make it a more inviting space to be in. Therefore, allow me to pimp your...
Guilty pleasure
posted by Lucy
I love coloured jeans. As I mentioned a few months ago in Colour therapy, there’s something about a bright, cheerful hue that can really wake you up and bring a smile to your face (you already know how much I love Uniqlo’s ‘make life more colourful’ campaign). And ok,...
Your thoughts
posted by Lucy
I want to make my blog bigger and better than ever, and to do that I need your help, mummies. By help, I mean comments. I want you to tell me what you love and hate (eek!) about It’s a Mummy Look, what you want to see more or less of on the blog, how you feel about the way you look since...
10-minute hair
posted by Lucy
A good mummy friend of mine asked me to do a blog post on quick, easy hairdos for when you have 10 minutes to spare while the baby naps and you want something a bit more inspiring than your usual drag-it-back-into-a-pony style. So here are five dos that I’ve road-tested myself, one for...
Look Good Feel Good
posted by Lucy
I’m making March my Look Good Feel Good month, because I’ve come to realise that if you look good, you feel good, and if you feel good, you look good. It’s a simple mantra, but one that makes our stressy, baby-first lives a little nicer, I reckon. In essence, what I’m...
Spring into colour
posted by Lucy
It’s official: spring has sprung. Well, in my mind at least. Sunnier days, birds tweeting in the trees (not so fabulous at 5am when the tweeting wakes your baby at such a Godawful hour, but still)… Brighter, fresher-feeling days always make me want to wear more colour, and...
