Flares are an interesting topic. Most people get scared off when you say the word ‘flares’ and I know you will be sceptical, but trust me – just try them. They are super flattering for most body shapes as they will give you curves if you don’t...

It’s officially my favourite time of year. Coat shopping time. I own a really unhealthy amount of coats, and my collection includes some gems from over 10 years ago. As we live in a country with mainly miserable weather you need a selection that will take you...

We don’t know anyone who doesn’t own something from Primark. You get some sort of thrill from popping in and coming out with a huge bag full of goodies without having to spend too much money. It’s pretty much impossible to go in there and leave empty...

A little while ago (I weirdly have no concept of time since becoming a mum – anyone else have that problem?!) I put together a guide on how to find out your body shapeand what clothes would suit it. It was really successful with you guys so I thought I’d...

Leopard print. We’ve discussed it before but it’s the only print that will never go out of fashion, and the best print to use if you want to perk up your outfit. Below is an edit of the best leopard print out there so that you don’t even need to...

I’m much more of a winter kinda gal than a summer one, I’ve always preferred layering up to stripping off but if I had to say one thing I love about summer coming around is that I love to splash out on some sunglasses. They cover dark bags, you don’t...

The question we have been asked the most since we launched This Is Mothership is ‘Where do I find clothes I can breastfeed in?’ It’s a struggle that so many of you have – you feel more yourself but can’t wear your old clothes without...

It’s one of my favourite times of year (I think I prefer it to Christmas!) The time of year when the new season collections start to work their way into our favourite stores. I always shop for shoes first, and then work my outfits around them. This is the best...

The bomber jacket is a major trend for 2016 and is expected to be hanging around throughout the rest of this year. We love a simple mum hack here at This Is Mothership so here is the best on yet – throw on your favourite skinny jeans that have faded knees and...

Have you had a lovely sunny weekend? It’s been great not having to layer up and panic about getting caught out in a rainstorm without a coat. However, the problem is that we all get cocky and forget to plan ahead for the next season and then miss out. The best...

My handbags are my most prized-possession (after my family, my health, blah blah blah.) It didn’t ever cross my mind that once I had a baby I wouldn’t be able to use them. I leave the house everyday with my mum bag, which has a small zip compartment for my...

I’ve been noticing something about my online shopping habits recently: I’ve been clicking on the ‘active-wear’ tab on websites and this is something I’ve never ever done before. It’s not because I’ve suddenly become a gym...

When we were pregnant we found nothing more frustrating than ordering loads of maternity clothes online, waiting for them to arrive to try them on and then finding that nothing looked or felt right. It’s hard enough having a rapidly changing body, but combine...

I’m not sure if you’ve realised it yet but we have a slight obsession with Instagram. It’s taken us through those tough early days with a new born (or were we the only ones scrolling and scrolling into the wee hours?) and it gives us a moment of...

It’s that time of year when every store goes on sale – which is wonderful if you are a 15 year old girl and love nipping around Topshop at Oxford Circus on a Saturday afternoon, but it’s not such great news if you are (approximately) 30 years old and...
