I live in Australia where it gets HOT! Can I recommend Teva's for an alternative to trainers. They are so comfy. I have three pairs and where them with everything. (Literally everything). I also just got some great cropped leggings with a slight fare from Pact - in green! They are so perfect for elevated active wear. Goes well with tevas 😜
I’m no longer at this stage of life with tiny kids, but love reading your Substack for a) great ideas and b) reminding myself it *was* bloody hard and we are/ were all doing our best.
A Question- why do all joggers I try gather in a very unflattering way in the crotch area? I get this nappy vibe which is very not chic! I am very curvy and I struggle to figure out how to do that cool sports casual look
The biggest workout in the world, it continually takes me by surprise too. We did the Tate a couple of weeks ago, so fun but very tiring, did the pushing two back in one buggy at late afternoon rush hour which was an error. Thank you for these great tips, am yet to try Adanola but love the look of the leggings (and everything else you have included) xx
I totally know what you mean. I find lots go droopy around the bum, too. Which isn't very flattering. As an alternative, I love the look of a kick-flare/ wider leg leggings. Like Adanola's flared yoga pants. Beyond Yoga do some too. Still comfy and relaxed but less fabric to gather. X
Hi Frankie! I’m returning to work next month after a year of mat leave leave so anticipating your next post :)
I’m specifically looking for a new work bag as my previous one was a sporty backpack which reminds me too much of the nappy bag now… It needs to fit a laptop, be practical enough for cycling to work, and nice enough to use at the weekend / non work things too. Thank you!
Was looking for new leggins! Thank you for the recommendations 💛
So relatable! x

Oh god, when you realised you've hit rush hour. Awful!! 🥴 X
Oooh I'll check out Pact, thank you! Big fan of Tevas - great for the kids too, especially on the beach! X
Always sweating! X
Oooh, these are so nice!

I love the brand PIECES, it's an affordable Danish brand, good for well-cut sweat pants and matching sweatshirts, perfect for a splash of colour on the school run. (I have the bubblegum pink set and the orange). https://www.pieces.com/en-gb/pcchilli-sweatpants-17113436_Hydrangea.html
