Sliding into style

There is nothing more fun than re-living the simple joys of childhood when you are in the playground with your kids.

Whether it’s sailing in the air on the swings, or speeding on the slides, that thrill and joy is as uplifting as a double shot latte with two sugars. Without the come down.

This gorgeous girl was grinning with glee as she joined in the fun at the playground. I was grinning to see such a perfectly practical outfit out to play.

The long-line cardigan adds a flattering layer.

Reminds me a bit of this inspired cargo-based outfit we spotted a few weeks ago. The common elements? Cargo pants, classic aviators, stacked bangles and bracelets, and an oversized watch.

For a more streamlined look, consider a skinny cargo inspired jean like the J Brand Houlihan.

Or, for a less expensive and undoubtedly more comfortable option try a cargo-style legging. We tried these ourselves over the last couple of weeks, click here for tips on how to incorporate into your wardrobe.

And click here for details on how you can WIN two pairs of cargo-style leggings of your own – competition ends Friday 15th April.

 

What’s your favourite piece of playground equipment? Is it the same as when you were a child?

    Love the swings. That feeling of freedom is bliss.

    I really like that you use ‘real life’ Mums to illustrate what you’re talking about, instead of perfectly coiffed models with not a centimetre of imperfect flesh to be seen. Great post.

    Ah Jo I love the swings too..

    Jackie, thankyou for your kind feedback! I see gorgeous women in the playground all the time. Sharing these photos is also my way of dispelling the media stereotype that mothers are always harried and slobbing around (although it can certainly be true some times – you should see me right now, behind the computer ,ha ha ha)

    Also, while initially it is the outfits that make these women stand out, it is the happy vibe that they seem to possess, and the way they interact with their children that is lovely to share. Thanks again, you’ve made my day!

Welcome!

Hi I'm Andrea, and Fox In Flats is my baby.

I'm also the mother of two little boys, who I credit for the motherhood induced fashion rut that I fell into sometime between the labour ward and now…

Here, we're sharing tips, ideas and inspiration to make it much, much easier to navigate motherhood in style.

Enjoy!
