From Babies With Love is the ultimate go to, feel good premium baby brand. Not only is it all organic and ethically sourced but 100% of profits go to orphaned and abandoned children around the world. How incredible is that?? So far, From Babies with Love have supported over 1000 children and the number is quickly growing.
Read moreGirls Partywear Ideas
With Christmas and party season sneaking up we thought it would be nice to share a few ideas and outfits we love from some of our favourite independent kids brands (all available at Olive Loves Alfie).
Read moreHalloween Edit
Halloween is once again upon us. With a 4 year old the pressure is on this year to really get involved with the trick or treating in our neighbourhood which is pretty epic! The effort some people go to with their costumes is impressive and as usual we will be taking the easy route with a shop bought outfit (one year I will be more original!) with face paint always does the trick.
Read moreNew Season Kids Picks at Olive Loves Alfie
With rapidly growing kids and a new season upon us it's time to purchase a few new bits for their Autumn/ Winter wardrobes. Honestly, they have a better wardrobe than me these days! Olive Loves Alfie is my go to independent store for the best pick of unisex, unique brands and fun clothes for kids.

Summer Dressing at M&S
M&S have got some lovely summer pieces in for babies and kids at the moment, especially in their Autograph brand. The styles we saw at the Press Day in March (click here) are now in store and online. Lots of pretty sets in florals, embroideries, chambray, grid checks and broderies. Now we just need the summer to properly show its face please!!
Read moreKids Swimwear Edit
We road tested a fair few pieces of swimwear whilst we were on holiday last month which I thought would be good to share (the kids holiday wardrobe was so much better than mine...not fair!). Swimwear for kids is always so fun and a good reason to go all out on the prints and colours.
Read moreBOGS Boots
Wellies - a bit of a family essential when it comes to muddy walks, puddle jumping, beach trips and rainy days. We've been testing out BOGS - a new kind of welly (well more a boot than a welly) made with 100% waterproof neoprene panels which makes them more comfortable than standard wellies and also makes them much easier to get on and off
Read moreLittle Feet // Amy & Ivor
There's something about little feet, little toes and little shoes. The prospect of those baby feet, smooth and innocent, taking their first steps turns me into a sentimental old mama. Part of me wants to slow down time but the other part can't wait to see the adventures we walk together.
Read morePJ Twinning with Panda & Ping
So we all know that as soon as you have kids you spend a lot more time at home and in your pjs. Sadly not sleeping in them for very long but certainly spending long lazy mornings playing with the kids and eating breakfast, normally twice in our house! Buying pjs for babies and kids has always been a favourite purchase of mine, even more so when you have two and can get them twinning in them.
Read moreMothercare SS17 Press Day
We went to the Mothercare SS17 press day the other week and as usual were really impressed with the sneak peek of the new ranges they are producing for SS17. I can't wait for Spring! Got quite a wait but wanted to share some of our favourite pieces we saw. This nautical inspired dress is beyond words cute and is top of the list for SS17.
Read moreHygge // Scandibørn
There's a lot of talk of hygge (the auto correct desperately wants it to spell higgle!) around at the moment. In case you've been on another planet, higgle, no hygge is (roughly) the Danish word for cosiness and it is one of the words of the year apparently.
Read moreChristmas Baby Clothes
If it's your baby's first Christmas you have to embrace the cuteness and check some of these must have pieces out! Those Christmas photos need to be extra special so a Christmas Jumper or dress and cosy booties are a must. Way too many amazing pieces around but we've picked a few of our favourites.
Read moreOrla Kiely Baby x Grobag
We recently went to the press event for the Orla Kiely Baby x Grobag collaboration, exclusively available at Mothercare. As a long term fan of print, colour, Orla Kiely and baby sleeping bags this seemed to be the perfect collaboration so we were super excited to be one of the first to see the product.
Read moreHip Little People
One of our favourite kids online boutiques, Hip Little People, recently turned one. We wrote about them on the blog last year as we love their edit of clothes and homewares for cool kids. They are stocking Beau Loves, a favourite unisex brand of ours and the lovely Lucy and Kelly from HLP sent us some pieces from the new range for the kids to wear.
Read morePoco Nido
I've wanted to write about British kids brand Poco Nido for a while now as they make the cutest, colourful and fun baby and kids shoes around. They are really simple, comfy and practical and we love their bold prints. They also make perfect gifts, all shoes come in a recyclable postal tube box which also makes for handy baby storage.
Read moreMargherita Kids
Margherita Kids has just launched exclusively at John Lewis. The range was designed by mother and fashion designer Margherita Maccapani Missoni Amos. She has a deep heritage in fashion (coming from the renowned Missoni family) and we love the colours, textures, prints and playful feel to the range.
Read moreYellow Lolly // Jax & Hedley
We love seeing new brands here at Finlay Fox HQ. The anticipation has been building for a while now about British kidswear fashion brand, Jax & Hedley, re-launching. We were lucky enough to get our hands on some of the new collection which we were kindly sent for the kids to wear. Yellow Lolly...
Read morePetites Pattes Baby Socks
I always get asked - what are the best baby socks that don't fall down and off little feet really quickly? Unfortunately it's the nature of little feet to push socks off and be constantly wriggling around, so the answer is 'there is no such thing,' to my knowledge, anyway (you can use these sock ons to help keep them on but they aren't for everyones taste).
Read moreOur Favourite Unisex Kids Brands
We've always been big fans of unisex clothing here at Finlay Fox. In fact it's one of the reasons we started the blog, we were on the lookout for clothes that broke from the tradition of blues and pinks. We love the fact that unisex means gender neutral clothes, lots of stripes, grey marls and black with pops of colour and fun print.
