Its All About the Beige

Its all about the beige. Beautiful earthy tones of beige worn simply and classically.

I love the pleated pant and shorts look, but get inspired by the long skirt worn with a simple white tee, or the fitted pants (will be big in winter) worn with a over sized shirt and blazer. Whether its a coat, pants, blazzer or some sweet shorts I'm finding beige delightful. Enjoy these simply lovely pics ladies.

Pregnancy // The Miranda Kerr Way

Wouldn't we all love to look like Miranda Kerr, pregnant or not... but the reality is most of us are just not supermodels (boohoo). We may not be supermodels but we can dress like one...steal Miranda's pregnancy style. Here are some pics to inspire your pregnancy wardrobe.

Simple dresses, jackets, and pants can make for some really cute outfits. (I'll keep you updated on Miranda's wardrobe along her pregnancy journey)

Local Business // Ruby and Jack

So mumma's I visited Ruby and Jack the other day. You need to get yourself down there.

They have amazing dresses for summer (see the beautiful Cooper Street Dress....something special), cute pleated shorts and pants, and a new self-designed range of basics called 'Ruby and Jack'.

The new Ruby and Jack range include tees with sequence detailing, and some amazing plain capes that are a must basic for every wardrobe. Check it out lovely ladies.

How To // Prioritising Exercise

Recently one of my girlfriends asked if I had any tips on how to prioritise exercise. So I've come up with a couple of tips on how to fit exercise into your day:

1. Try to organise walk dates with your girlfriends, rather than coffee dates. This way you fit an exercise session in as well as quality time to catch up with your friends.

2. Wake up and put your gym gear on straight away. I have a theory that if I get into my gym gear I wont take it off until I've exercised (works for me). So put your gear on girls and prioritise that walk or run.

3. Set yourself an achievable goal, say 3 walks a week. Then add it to your list of things to do for the week and mark them off as you get them done. Seeing it visually on paper always encourages me to fit a walk in.

4. For me, 3.30-4.00 in the afternoon is Charlie's crazy time of the day. He is usually unsettled and bored. So for his stimulation and my mental health a walk is the perfect solution for happy toddler and happy mum. I know that Charlie loves a walk, the fresh air and real life entertainment is so good for him.

5. Buy gym/walking clothes that are comfortable and look cute. Black leggings and a singlet or over sized tee are my picks.

Get out there mumma's you'll feel good and look good for your efforts.

PS Just a little pic of Charlie and Bella waiting to go walking (cant work out why people laugh at us)

How To // Cuff

Just a quick trend alert... should have done this one awhile ago.

By just adding a simple cuff to your jeans you will freshen up your look. Simply roll your jeans, pants two to three times and your done.

Simplicity // The Olsens Way

Sometimes it is best to just keep it simple girls. When you dont know what to wear... stick with simple. There is something really hot about a plain tee or singlet, jeans, heals or even just thongs. Simplicity is the answer!! Let the Olsen twins inspire you, they could pull off any look, but instead they often keep it very basic.

Be inspired on the simple things. oxo
