The summer is coming to an end sadly, this week was back to work, back to school and so on. So for me it's a little different as Liam is only 7 months and I work from home BUT Kipling has kept me sorted ... I sometimes can not concentrate at home, or I am bored of home and Liam some days could use some distraction. We therefor go the barn down the road of a cafe to get a cup of hot chocolate or a smoothie and I tend to separate my handbags with his stuff, it's easier. This…
Smoothie
You know me and my love for smoothies, I have found the perfect smoothie. I try every week to create something different, wether it's simple like banana milk or wether it's more elaborated. I find doing a little smoothie every other day in the week really boost my energy and creativity for that matter. This one is pretty simple BUT delicious, especially now the days are getting shorted, darker and colder I just want a creamy thick drink that will keep me happy by the fire. So here it is ... . 3 peaches (fresh, frozen however you want) .…
Freshly picked
Have you ever seen anything cuter than baby shoes, Liam still has little feet so more photos will come very soon when he actually can walk around in them. They are the sweetest moccasins ever, I have always wanted some of those and then wondered but are they good for my baby? In fact soft shoes are the perfect choice for your baby's feet. They have been used to being barefoot for so long it's just unfair to get them stuck in hard and painful shoes where they can not wiggle and have room to move. These are so soft…
Exploring DC with Loft
A little look I adore from this summer and our time in the US. It was love at first sight with this cute little lemon one sleeve top and those silky navy shorts that can so be worn casually but also quite smart with a cute little silk top and necklaces. We love DC so much as you can imagine not only because the city is beautiful and calmer than NY haha but mainly because our family lives there and the kids are such a big part of our lives. We had such an amazing family time in DC, I…
Snack with Dorset Cereals
Who fancies a good carrot cake? I used to think it wasn't my thing back when I lived in France, I was thinking 'excuse me a sweet nice and naughty cake with some vegetables' but then I tasted it and really do like it especially in autumn with a good tea or hot chocolate for some reason. I am a sucker for quick snacks as you know me, I love cooking but sometimes get really lazy and also with Liam it's not always predicted whether I will have time to cook or I will just starve to death hahah kidding.…
Casual
I shot this look months ago and just found it on my laptop haha that happens a lot lately!! Here is a quick look for you hope you like it, this cardi was from Mango and it's super practical to throw on everything and anything. Top is the classic Carrie silk top from J Crew, I may have it in like 4 colours ... This bag from Rebecca Minkoff has been one of my favourite this year, it's blush and velvet need to say more? I am hoping to pair it a lot with neutral this winter! xo S

Baby essentials with Mother Care
An article that as been long over due but that is finally here, our favourite baby items. When I got pregnant I swore to myself that I would not be buying unnecessary things. We rounded up our favourite things to have and to keep. Our all time favourite was the Tommy Tippee perfect prep machine, I did not breast feed and this was a life saver and a time saver. It does your milk bottle like an espresso machine within 2 min. He has been using it since birth and still is at 6 months old. I think for the…
Pink Party
So I turned 27 a few weeks ago ... damn closer to 30 this is taking me ... not happy anyhow hahah I ended up doing a little thinking with this little head of mine and realised that I had pretty much everything I ever wanted ... ok minus the Ferrari but hey oh one can dream haha. I had a wonderful life in France have my amazing family and friends still there, I met my prince charming at 18 in England, got engaged at 21, married at 23, pregnant at 25 had Liam at 26 and bought a house…
Perry Street
In a New York minute, we often end up at the exact same place when we walk around the village. Perry Street is one of my favourite street in that area, alright you are gonna say it's just because it's in Sex and the City and it's Carrie's apartment but no it's just such a beautiful street, the brownstone are stunning and I just love how peaceful it all feels even if you are in Manhattan you know. I think it's because I am going thought my US photos (like finally) but I am feeling super nostalgic, I always do…
