The Scarf – Add a pop of colour to your drab monochromatic clothes. A vibrant scarf is the easiest way to show a bit of flare and a pashmina can also double as a baby blanket. I love the iconic Alexander McQueen silk skull scarves. You don’t need to spend this kind of money but it sure looks pretty The Spanx – I am about to change your life. No more ugly, nasty looking spanx. Ladies now when you take of your clothes you will be wearing sexy, fashionable body wear courtesy of Resultwear by D’Mondaine. I have seen them up close and I didn’t even realize they were spanx they looked so sexy. Now go make yourself another baby! Being a woman, I think it is in our blood to fall in love with the idea of owning copious amounts of shoes and bags. So since becoming a parent, there was only ever one brand that I had in my ‘Yummy Mummy’ eyes and that was Pink Lining. Their Baby & Maternity Bags are just gorgeous and are made with the best quality materials.

The Sunglasses – Ladies no one needs to see those dark circles and bags under your eyes so hide them with some cool looking sunglasses. You can spoil yourself with a fab designer pair or keep it classic with my personal favourites Ray-Bans. The Wayfarer or the Aviator, the choice is yours. They have never and will never go out of style This bag is seeing us nicely through the Autumnal Season. Through the rain, the wind and soon-to-be snow. Throughout the morning walks to school and the afternoon walks home. I love that this bag doesn’t feel like just a changing bag, it feels and looks so versatile that I think I could use this as a regular Mummy bag once Annabelle is too big to have changes of clothes and juice cups carried around with me. The Flowy Tee – Let’s face it fitted tees haven’t been a sexy look for some time now. So it is easy for you to follow the fashionable trend with a lovely flowy tee. My favourite are Helmut Lang jersey tees. I have loads and wear them outThe colour combination on this Pink Lining Bag may not be to everyone’s taste, but I certainly fell in love with it. It was simple, yet effective and best of all fabulously practical. A great recipe of ingredients in any baby changing bag if you ask me!

The Ballet Flat – This is the shoe you will find on most mom’s feet and there is nothing wrong with it but live a little with the colour and textures. I suggest a bold solid colour, metallics, muted 2-tones or get wild with an animal print. Repetto is the ballet shoe extraordinaire. Expensive but worth it The bag is perfect in size and really spacious. It can be carried in a multitude of comfortable ways. Whether it be in your hands with the lovely leather handles, over the shoulder or across the chest. You could also shorten the straps and have them over the handlebars of your pushchair.The Bag – It’s all in the bag. Ladies the most essential piece to being a yummy mummy is a fabulous designer bag.
