Passionate pear

Mini has discovered tray upon tray of pears at grandma and papow's house. Freshly picked from the trees she simply saunters into the garage where they lie and picks one up and shoves it straight, core,stem and all, in her mouth. Today for her tractor ride she wore her auntie peggys Bonpoint liberty print dress with it's matching bloomers and a teal handknit cardi from grandma topped off with her new leopard slippers which despite the print clash seem to go with everything!

Driving miss mini

Phin and mini have headed down to Papow and grandmas house for the weekend while we whizz off to a wedding. It's been an exciting stay so far with an excursion to see in the night garden live with iggle Piggle and upsy daisy. And then having some fun driving papas Porsche and hooping the horn as much as possible.
Yesterday mini got back into london style with her tapered khakis from Bonpoint and her Bonton polka T and new grey crochet waistcoat from The Little White Company and her new leopard slippers. Her feet have grown so much over the summer I see new shoes on the horizon.

Pizza heaven

What else are two Ton pizza ovens in your garden for? Inviting fab friends over for home made pizza on a bank holiday. Our garden was a hub of pizza making activity, filled with kids cavorting and hurling themselves at blow up paddling pools and trampolines whilst we drank pink lemonade and thought up designer toppings. Mini wore her Bonton liberty print dress which is slowly turning into a top with her red leggings which are slowly turning into Bermudas. Well at least godmummy emma's gift has longevity. We topped it off with a thanknu nod to another attendee Carolyn and her Cos necklace which Mini loves to wear. Phin in the meantime wore his new sale buy striped sweater by Maan. Love the bold colour combo to showcase his tan. But it was the ELC motorised bubble blower that received the most buzz. What is it with kids and bubbles. Magic.

Bye bye sunshine

Adios ibiza. So long sunshine.
After a month of azure skies and pebble beaches we are heading home today. Cant complain but know we're going to miss the bright light and warmth. Of course it does mean bringing out the new season's finest that we've been hoarding ready for our fashion week debut but in the meantime Mini wore her Bonton yellow sundress once again, this time hoping to bring a little sunshine back to blighty.

Big hug

Minis not overtly generous with her hugs but when she loves someone she shows it big style. One such nominee is Grace whom Mini simply adores, it's not just that she receives plenty of her fashion savvy hand me downs, she's a whizz at swimming and has her very own American doll, two highly prized assets in mini's mind.
Today mini showed off her tan against this vivid turquoise and gold lurex stripe sundress from Mykonos. Worn with her matching turquoise stone sandals she brings her sunny style to our last few days on the island.

From here to eternity

Mini is doing an excellent job of striking a pose. She simply lies down lifts her head and basks in the sun and the lapping waves. She'd give any model on my shoots a run for their money.
Today we rented a small boat and zoomed around the island of Es Vedra. What a blast with Papa steering the boat and riding the waves both Phin and Mini were squealing with delight. We even jumped over board for a dip at Atlantis. Thanks George and Will for the top tip!

Little vedra

We spent yesterday and again today showing uncle piggle hanging our little casita near the infamous Es Vedra rock.
We may not have our house there quite yet but it certainly feels like home. Phin helped his papa pick ripe juicy figs and grapes from our vines and mini Posed in front of vedra in her gorgeous Ibithencan White cotton and crochet dress.
Later we spent an afternoon at our favourite beach of Cala carbo with mini showing off her Bonton ruffled bikini bottoms followed by a beachside dinner with resident hipsters George and Will. Mini, as usual, charmed the pants of all the waiters, waitresses and even the grizzled chef whilst Phin made it his business to taste everyone's ice creams.
