Family

  

I’m ridiculously obsessed with this father daughter duo.   Maybe it’s because I’m such a daddy’s girl or maybe it’s because I know the boy, who is determined to be a very hands on father, will be just as cute with our little one.  Who can resist Harper’s adorable and chic dresses and both David’s off duty and tailored looks.  I mean she’s already front row with Anna Wintour.  Definitely a little fashionista in the making.

Despite the fact that I’ve been warned numerous times babies grow out of clothes quickly, spit up often, and probably only need white onesies in the first few weeks, it’s impossible not to go a little crazy over shopping for ridiculously cute outfits.   I’m pretty ecstatic it’s a girl and have fallen in love with several collections.   She’s a spring baby, so I’ve been leaning towards florals and neutrals, especially with a French twist.  Bonpoint has been one of my absolute favourite brands and I can see her growing with this brand.  The aesthetic is completely my style, so we’ll be able to look well suited without matching, because obviously mother/daughter matching outfits are just too over the top.   The fabrics are as luxe as their delicate prints, and so perfect for our upcoming European trip this summer.  

Bonpoint HK is located on the 3rd Floor in Prince’s Building, Central.

 

 
 

Camping in an office is the only appropriate way to describe our former living conditions.  The boy and I had plenty of space and resources to play with, but laziness always overtook and it was easier to set up in a huge bed and stay weirdly content in that element.   We have lived in more than our fair share of flats together and have been happiest in the open plan studio types, over several bedrooms and a pretty house.  Once news of the imminent arrival of our little girl hit, motivation peaked and we have completely rearranged our entire home one room at a time.  The largest room is where we have made the most effort making sure to inject as much of our personality as possible.  Although our baby girl will most likely stay with us and make little use of her nursery in the first year, we are taking our time to make it a space fit for a boho princess. The amount of nursery rhymes I will be singing to her will be unreal, but this is the best part of having kids. Watching them grow up and being there through every step is something every parent will never forget.

Going down the flimsy, messy yet stylish route is much more me than the boy, but a clean and ultra modern design in not conceivable with what we have, so I guess I win. I’m loving the idea of a fort, because lets face it how much fun was fort building when you were little.  The rest will be all about pretty prints, dreamcatchers, draped fabrics, vintage art, and clothes that double as display.  I’m sure you can tell I’m pretty excited it’s a girl 😉
