At some point I figure I’m going to reach saturation point on animal prints… but I’m not there yet.

I LOVE this sweat top!

Être Cécile ‘Big C’ Cheetah long sleeve sweat top, £63

Me: I love wearing black lace. It’s so practical.
You: Huh?!?
Me: And did I mention versatile? Yup, really versatile.
You: Um… ok…

Let me explain…

My wardrobe has 3 personalities:
1. Work Me: tailored, feminine, practical
2. Date Night Me: fun, whimsical, slightly impractical
3. Mother Of A Toddler On A Playdate Me: fun, comfy and machine washable

Black lace is a no-brainer for ‘Date-Night-Me’.

It also makes regular appearances on ‘Work-Me’, say a black lace skirt with a white tee and a tailored jacket, or a lace shirt with tailored pants.

Lately I’ve been noticing however that it’s been popping up on ‘Mother-Of-A-Toddler-On-A-Playdate-Me’ as well – sometimes a bra peeking out from beneath a singlet top, or maybe a camisole teamed with denim cutoffs. And all whilst still remaining fun, comfy and machine washable!

Convinced?
