<span style="color: #666666;">I really can't believe that summer is nearly here and the kids are checking out of school for the next 2 months! If you are like me the thought of entertaining hyper children all summer is already making my head spin. Luckily day camps were created to give us moms a hand and to let the kids run off steam during the day. Of course we can't send the kids to camp empty handed and we need to be fully prepared to send the troops off stocked and prepared. There is nothing I hate more than when things go missing at school/camp and thankfully <a href="http://www.stuckonyou.com/">Stuck on You</a> are here to make our lives just a little easier.</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><a href="http://www.stuckonyou.com/">Stuck on You</a> has created an amazing collection of personalized goodies from labels, tags, bags, lunchboxes and so much more to make our lives a breeze. My 4 year old son is super forgetful and I love that I can have everything with his name on it (which he can recognize) and a cute icon printed on that really makes his belongings stands out to him. He is really into space so between having his name printed on with a rocket ship I'm keeping my fingers crossed that what I send with him all comes home at the end of the day. Luckily I got to put this into action as a test this week at his holiday camp and his lunchbox, drink bottle and food containers all came back!</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">My deepest apologies for abandoning Lattes and Juice since December! It just became too much living on a building site with the children and I was desperately trying to keep my head above water. Between the invasion of the builders, not having a kitchen, endless noise and dust, terrible weather, living literally with giant holes in the house, and barely any internet just took a toll on me. Thankfully our house is 97% complete and all so incredibly happy in our bigger and much improved home! Still unpacking the house but finally feeling back to myself again. Just cannot believe that this is really our house and I promise to give a full reveal on our renovation in the next couple of weeks.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">So here's the complete low down on what I have been up to for the past 6 months (seriously cannot believe I took such a long break)!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cXfzSDgsmdo/U4UCb3A_lQI/AAAAAAAABUA/FZQS-fjHqU8/s1600/update01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cXfzSDgsmdo/U4UCb3A_lQI/AAAAAAAABUA/FZQS-fjHqU8/s1600/update01.jpg" height="446" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Andy turned 4 in December and it's crazy how quickly he has grown up. We threw a London themed birthday party for him with a trip up to the London Eye. Most of his friends had caught chicken pox just days before the party so we ended up having a small and intimate group. Everyone had such a great time enjoying the breathtaking views of London from high up. The amazing London cake and bus cookie pops are from <a href="http://www.biscuiteers.com/">Biscuiteers</a> in Notting Hill.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">And in a blink of an eye little Miss Milla Rose turned 2 in March with a Peppa Pig birthday extravaganza in our new kitchen. My lovely friend made the most amazing and gigantic Peppa cake for our birthday girl and I don't think it will ever be forgotten.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-59M0Op4unC8/U4UCb_FF09I/AAAAAAAABT8/jW6rgdmX1qM/s1600/update02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-59M0Op4unC8/U4UCb_FF09I/AAAAAAAABT8/jW6rgdmX1qM/s1600/update02.jpg" height="446" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Thankfully we had a big trip planned in December just when the building works got really bad. We were missing doors, windows and walls at this point and it was just unbearable living in our house. We headed over to stay with my mom in New Jersey and the kids just could not get enough of the snow. No trip is complete without checking out all of the holiday sights in New York City, just like a tourist.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">We were spoiled rotten with a fabulous trip to <a href="https://casadecampo.com.do/">Casa de Campo</a> in the Dominican Republic with my family for Christmas. I have been going to Casa de Campo since I was a little girl and always have the best memories here. It was just incredible to bring my kids to CDC and to be able to share this amazing place with them. My husband had no voice the whole trip and Andy had a fever the whole time but there's no where better to be sick! </span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">After New Years we headed on a plane back to London and when we walked in the door to our house I was completely in tears. The cloud of dust was so thick we could barely breathe and literally everything in the house with covered with dust, dust and more dust. The best part is that both kids broke out with high fevers when we set foot back in our house. We checked into a flat we rented from <a href="http://www.onefinestay.com/">One Fine Stay</a> just down the street from us instantly. Within 48 hours we were back on a plane to my mom's house in New Jersey on airline miles. Renting for the next 2 weeks just was not in our budget so crashing at my mom's was the best option. We had taken 6 flights within a month at this point and now I can truly say that my kids are really amazing little fliers!</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KVvZDH4GxHk/U4UCdHyO8_I/AAAAAAAABUU/H6rAxcElyeM/s1600/update05.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KVvZDH4GxHk/U4UCdHyO8_I/AAAAAAAABUU/H6rAxcElyeM/s1600/update05.jpg" height="446" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">When we returned to London at the end of January the house was finally coming together and habitable again. I was in tears when my builder surprised me with having my kitchen done a couple of days earlier than expected. There is nothing like having running water, a gas stove and electricity all at the same time! All I can say is that I can cook almost anything in a microwave and rice cooker.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">We took about 1.5 months off from the airport and for Easter we decided to hop over to visit my family in Asia. My dad lives in Shanghai full time and we have a ton of family over in Taipei. It was such a great experience for the kids to see the other side of the world and get in touch with there Chinese roots. We ate and ate and ate for 2 weeks straight and none of us wanted to come home. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">And now it's just so nice to be back on our daily routine filled with school runs, playdates and swim lessons. Oh and waiting for the builder that finish off the last 3% which apparently can take longer than the whole of the renovation. Back to work now!</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">As we are all super busy running around this time of the year I think it is so important not too get too caught up in the holiday madness and to take a moment to remember just how lucky we really are. I am so thankful that I have a loving husband, 2 amazing children, a warm(ish) house, the best family ever and never ever have to worry about where our next meal is coming from. I am absolutely terrible at spoiling my children especially this time of the year and love waking up on Christmas morning and seeing the pure joy on their faces. It breaks my heart to think of all those children out there who will not get to share this moment of magic and want to make sure that I start teaching my kids how to give back and to help those in need.</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">The <a href="http://www.nspcc.org.uk/">NSPCC</a> is one of the largest UK charities focused on ending child cruelty in the UK and organization that could really use your donations. I'm sure all of the children are hard at working writing letters to Father Christmas right now and would be delighted to receive a letter back from the North Pole. The NSPCC is offering a wonderful service online where you can send your child a personalised <a href="https://christmas.nspcc.org.uk/santa">Letter from Santa</a> for a small donation. There are several templates to choose from based on your child's age, add accomplishments on there such as eating veggies or doing well at school, have a friend/sibling's name on the letter, and even acknowledge that you will not be forgotten if you happen to be traveling on Christmas day. It only costs a </span><strong style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font: inherit; line-height: 19px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">£5 donation to have the letter sent and of course you can easily donate for at the checkout. The money raised goes towards ChildLine where children can contact the NSPCC directly 365 days a year (even on Christmas day) if they are worried or have a concern.</span></strong></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">One of my top picks for this holiday season for anyone that has a little girl or looking to spoil a very special gal is a fabulous tutu from <a href="http://www.tutudumonde.com/">Tutu du Monde</a>. I am a huge fan of the stunning pieces that are designed to let a girl's imagination run wild in the land of make believe, princesses, fairy dust and sparkle. (See my post on last season's collection <a href="http://lattesandjuice.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/sparkle-in-tutu-du-monde.html">here</a>.) This season's collection "The Lost Girls" is truly magical for the holiday season featuring lots of pale nudes and pastels mixed with sparkly sequins and a splash of color. Be sure to keep reading and see how you can win one of these beautiful tutus!</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">I have been completely and utterly obsessed with <a href="http://sissyandmarley.com/">Sissy+Marley</a> since the first time I laid eyes on one of the amazing nursery these fabulous ladies have designed. The dynamic mother and daughters team of Chelsea, Rachel, and Diana are the genius design gurus of Sissy+Marley and they seriously have impeccable taste. Sissy+Marley are know for creating unique modern, whimsical and sophisticated spaces for your baby's nursery, child's room, playroom or any other space in your house. I love that all of the rooms they design are not only stunning but are really well thought out functionally and really accommodate family life.

<span style="color: #666666;">Lucky for us Sissy+Marley have just launched a collection of fabulous wallpaper for <a href="http://www.jillmalek.com/wallpaper/">Jill Malek</a> that are simple, modern and ever so chic. I'm loving the <a href="http://www.jillmalek.com/wallpaper/portfolio_wallpaper_16.php">Giraffe Wallpaper</a> that is one of the key features of their new projects for baby Dylan's nursery. How stylish and sophisticated is this animal kingdom themed nursery? The room is very warm and soothing with the neutral tones of the furniture and walls mixed in with pops of orange accessories. I love all of the artwork found throughout the walls of the room that really personalize the space and makes it that much more special.</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666;">When it comes to children's fashion it just doesn't get any better than <a href="http://www.mariechantal.co.uk/">Marie Chantal</a>. Marie Chantal is not only the Crown Princess of Greece but she is also the mother to 5 children. Season after season she creates stunning collections of stylish and contemporary clothes that celebrates the innocence of children. The most luxurious fabrics are used in her designs from the softest cashmere, wool, cotton and silk that children can be themselves in. Marie Chantal's signature angel wing design found throughout the collections is one of my favorites and angel wing outfits for infants is the perfect gift for a newborn baby.</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">The Autumn/Winter collection this season is filled with gorgeous pieces that are perfect for the upcoming season with festive holiday party clothes and beautiful pieces that are great for everyday layering. Those of you with little boys like me know how difficult it is to find special pieces for them that will really make them stand out. You can always count of Marie Chantal for chic pieces that will transform your little guy into a true gentlemen.

<span style="color: #666666;">The girl's collection each season is completely irresistible and I have sacrificed buying things for myself many times in order to fund a Marie Chantal wardrobe for my little girl. Seriously I wish the coats and dresses came in my size! I love the sweet prints they do each season and the blouses that are perfect for layering.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I've almost made it to the end of half term as a single mother this week and thankfully we finally got a lovely sunny day today. Halloween is a pretty big deal back in the States and each year that we have been here in London it seems that the Brits are catching the spirit too. This is one holiday that I don't want my kids missing out on! I packed the kids up in the car this afternoon for the drive out to <a href="http://www.crockfordbridgefarm.co.uk/">Crockford Bridge Farm Shop</a> in Surrey. It was actually a nice quick ride from Southwest London just past Heathrow Airport down the M25. We went last year for the pumpkin patch when my little girl was just a teenie tiny one and it was amazing to see her running around today. It really does got that much quicker the second time around!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Crockford has so much to offer for a family day out and is perfect for energetic children who need space to run around. There is of course an amazing selection of pumpkins in all shapes and sizes at the <a href="http://www.crockfordbridgefarm.co.uk/surrey-farm-shop/pumpkins-halloween.htm">pumpkin farm</a>. They are setting up lots of fun Halloween activities for the weekend so be sure to check out their website if you are looking for something fun to do. The kids loved playing in the rustic playground with a couple of play houses, an amazing wooden swing hanging from the big tree and the main attraction the zip line swinging from tree to tree. Be sure to bring your wellies! There is a cute little gelato shop where you can get adorable little mini cones for the kids and maybe a scoop for yourself. What the kids really loved most was running around in all of that open space picking up sticks and dandelions.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">On the same property is the <a href="http://www.crockfordbridgefarm.co.uk/surrey-farm-shop/weybridge-garden-centre.htm">Weybridge Garden Center</a> where you will find the actual <a href="http://www.crockfordbridgefarm.co.uk/surrey-farm-shop/addlestone/surrey-farm-shop.htm">Crockford Bridge Farm Shop</a>. The shop is filled with fresh produce, butchers counter, and a huge selection of American food. If you are looking to bake some classic American treats this Halloween than this is a great place to pick up supplies. The highlight of the Garden Center is the indoor play area with cafe and restaurant. I definitely recommend leaving time to let the kids have a run around in there. It's pretty much impossible to avoid since it's right next to the toilet/babychange so plan accordingly and keep in mind rush hour traffic back to London.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I highly recommend a trip out to Surrey for a fantastic Halloween themed day and bring your cameras as there are so many photo ops!</span></div>

<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bEFxc1y9QC0/UmWfAQ914sI/AAAAAAAABIo/R2gxRGDNUDw/s1600/7amenfant01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="446" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bEFxc1y9QC0/UmWfAQ914sI/AAAAAAAABIo/R2gxRGDNUDw/s640/7amenfant01.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="color: #666666;">So far everyday is a new adventure and living on a building site with 2 kids has been a real roller coaster ride. A perfect day would be the house having hot water, heater, internet and electricity all at the same. We are all getting thru with a smile on our faces and no major meltdowns on my end yet. To make things even more fun nothing is sealed up and there are big holes in the roof while it's been raining like crazy for the past couple of days. </span><span style="color: #666666;">The poor kids get to visit their toys every now and then in the storage facility and fully understand that they toys aren't coming back until the builders are gone. </span><span style="color: #666666;">Only 2.5 months left (fingers crossed)!</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666;">The lovely summer weather has definitely gone and now comes the time of the year to prepare for the cold and wet days ahead. If you are a city mom like me than you fully understand just how much time we spend outdoors dragging our kids around in buggies/strollers. The amount of gear we need to get through the day is insane and I'm always crossing my fingers that I haven't forgotten anything (which usually happens). </span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666;">This is where <a href="http://7amenfant.com/">7 A.M. Enfant</a> step in and have created an amazing collection to help us busy moms get through the day efficiently and all in fabulous style! The single buggy accessory that I use the most is my <a href="http://lattesandjuice.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/7-am-enfant.html">7 A.M. Enfant Le Sac Igloo</a> that I purchased years ago which I cannot live without in the cold English winter. The new collection includes universal foot muffs of different weights to accommodate for the different climates so you are sure to find something that is perfect for you. The new designs and colors are just gorgeous and are sure to make you stand out of the crowd.</span><br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<span style="color: #666666;">Here are my favorites from the new collection (from the top):</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><a href="http://7amenfant.com/shop/baby-shield/">Baby Shield</a></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;">Comes with 2 thickness covers for chilly days to freezing ones. The best part is the front panel unzips and can be used with the infant carseat.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Blanket 212 Bee (coming soon)</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;">This is perfect for those subzero days out and the eye catching bee striped design will sure to brighten up those cold grey days. Can also be used with the carseat and the length is adjustable.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://7amenfant.com/shop/blanket-212-evolution/">Blanket 212 Evolution</a><br />
<span style="color: #666666;">This is the ultimate accessory for the winter months with a warm fleece lining, waterproof shell, and a big snuggly hood to keep the kiddies warm. The best are is that it is fully adjustable to accommodate for the growing child.</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://7amenfant.com/shop/car-seat-cocoon-csc/">Car Seat Cocoon CSC</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">It's almost worth having another baby to get to use this genius little cocoon (I kid!). The cocoon slips over the car seat which makes the adjustment going from indoors to outdoors so simple. I was always so worried about my baby overheating/freezing and this really would have solved all that worrying. Simply zip/unzip without disturbing the baby, how great is that? </span><br />
<br /></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">7 A.M. Enfant really know what us busy moms need and they have come up with even more essentials to make our lives that much easier! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Here are some pieces that I am dying to get my hands on this season (from the top):</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Hamper Bag (coming soon)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">This is absolutely brilliant and I have seriously been designing this exact bag in my head for years. A clever drawstring design that can easily hold everything you kid needs from toys, spare clothes, food, bottles, blanket, etc, etc, etc. The shoulder strap means that your hands are free and the best thing ever are the straps to attach it to your buggy. I'm desperate for one of these in my life!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Warm Muffs Kids (coming soon)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">My son rides his scooter every single day and is his main mode of transportation. The winter cold doesn't stop him from scooting around town. And how many pairs of gloves do we lose over the winter season? The Warm Muffs Kids is the perfect solution for winter scooting featuring a fluffy, warm, waterproof mitten that attaches to the scooter/bike to protect those little hands. It really solves so many problems.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><a href="http://7amenfant.com/shop/warmmuffs-212/">Warm Muffs</a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Don't forget about us mamas trekking in the cold with thin gloves. The original Warm Muffs were designed to attach to the buggy to help us get through the bitter cold. These are totally on my Christmas list this year!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://7amenfant.com/shop/voyage/">Voyage Diaper Bag</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I've had my eye on the Voyage Diaper Bag since it first came out in the neon pink. It is so practical for everyday and traveling with all the endless pockets and compartments in the bag it makes it so easy to stay organized. And all diaper bags need the mighty important handy shoulder strap in my book. There's nothing I hate more than fumbling through my bag for things because we all know how much stuff ends up in there. Today on top of all the usual essential I've carried around an entire team of Ninja Turtles along with all of Elmo's friends. With the pockets finding your keys and phone makes life so much simpler.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-c6GOlHp2iDY/UlhqcQhB6zI/AAAAAAAABIE/I6kk6hVV9Co/s1600/winter01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="446" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-c6GOlHp2iDY/UlhqcQhB6zI/AAAAAAAABIE/I6kk6hVV9Co/s640/winter01.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">So instead of complaining how cold it has gotten all of a sudden I am going to be grateful that September in London this year has been so lovely and I'm looking forward to snuggling up in my winter wardrobe. Honestly I do prefer winter clothes as I have a slight addiction to coats and boots. The best part about the coming months is that I can once again wear head to toe black and this is seriously the easiest way to look instantly chic.</span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="color: #666666;">I definitely believe in investing in a great pair of boots and fabulous coat for the winter that are stylish and utilitarian at the same time. It's so easy to throw these on for the school run and look really well put together. I'll bet no one will really think twice about what you have on underneath. There are 3 types of boots that I wear to get me through the cold season:</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">(From the Top) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">1. The Knee High Flat Boots for day and night</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I purchased these </span><a href="http://uk.stuartweitzman.com/5050/5050SUEBLA,en,pd.html?start=7&cgid=shoes-boots">Stuart Weitzman 5050 in Black Suede</a><span style="color: #666666;"> boots </span><span style="color: #666666;">seasons ago and were such a good buy. The elastic in the back part of the boot makes it easier to slip over jeans/legging and got me through 2 pregnancies with swollen feet.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">2. The Biker Boot</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I've worn my biker boots to death and I would love to own these </span><a href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/374950">Valentino Studded Leather Biker Boots</a><span style="color: #666666;">. The studs on the already edgy biker boot makes these Valentino ones that much cooler.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">3. Wellies</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Wellies are probably what I end up wearing most during the year with this crazy London weather. I am so excited about the Hunter and Rag&Bone collaboration for a pair of wellies stylish enough for all of the fashionistas out there. I love the color combination of these </span><a href="http://www.hunter-boot.com/hunter-rag-and-bone-ladies-tall/black-navy">Hunter + Rag & Bone Tall in Black/Navy</a> <span style="color: #666666;">and the zipper up the side not only looks great but is practical at the same time. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Now a girl can never have too many black coats and I'm very into these chic black wool coats with leather detailing. They can easily be worn over a pair of jeans during the day or thrown on top of a little dress for nights out. They are relaxed and stylish without being too casual.</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">This coat is currently in my closet and I can't wait to wear it out! I love the leather straps and the leather elbow patches. Most importantly it covers my bum so I won't be freezing out there.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">The furry hood is super cozy and the coat is very edgy with the bias zipper and leather sleeves. These French brands just know how to do black right!</span></div>

<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x4ngB3a5Vvs/UlW3kjuFSbI/AAAAAAAABHg/EP_tcDad5Z8/s1600/shakeshack01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="446" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x4ngB3a5Vvs/UlW3kjuFSbI/AAAAAAAABHg/EP_tcDad5Z8/s640/shakeshack01.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I have been waiting for this moment for a long time and I am just over the moon that <a href="http://www.shakeshack.com/location/london-covent-garden/">Shake Shack</a> has finally opened in London. For those of you that are not familiar, Shake Shack is a burger joint sensation from NYC that has taken the city by storm for the past couple of years. Queues were so long in the original Madison Square Park kiosk that webcams were put up so you could see how long the wait would be before heading out. I think what I love most other than the yummy top quality food is it that is that it is a real slice of Americana. The <a href="http://www.shakeshack.com/location/london-covent-garden/">Covent Garden location in London</a> is perfect for us expats that are a little bit homesick or if you want to make a quick culinary journey over the pond.</span></div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I seriously cannot eat enough of Shake Shack's crinkle fries (or chips for you Brits) that are fried, crispy and lightly salted to perfection. My 18 month old daughter was cramming about 6 at a time into her tiny little mouth. The kids shared a double cheeseburger, I had the Shroom burger and hubby a Shack-cago dog and everything was as good as we remembered. The only downside was that there was no chicken hotdog (my usual) and the pickles were not the real American ones. It's pretty much impossible to find a true kosher dill pickle here and that was a huge problem during both pregnancies. For dessert we had an amazing chocolate malt shake and a coffee and donut concrete. The concrete is definitely worth all the calories and luckily you can burn them off by chasing the little ones around Covent Garden. Be sure to check out the <a href="http://www.shakeshack.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/ss-uk_custard-calendar_oct13.pdf">concrete menu</a> before you do to see what the flavor of the day is.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">My 3.5 year old has proclaimed that Shake Shack is his favorite restaurant in the whole wide world which is pretty similar to his father's opinion. He was very excited about the tables being made in Brooklyn (which is currently his obsession) and luckily we brought along our London Tube train and NYC subway train for the dining experience. We went on a busy Saturday morning and there were plenty of seats outside in the square, inside the covered market and restaurant dining area. In true American service style there were lots of staff on hand to manage the queues are really didn't end up waiting too long. If you are craving a good ole American burger than it's definitely worth the trip into town to join the crowds.</span></div>

My apologies for disappearing from the internet last week. School has started for the kids which means that the first round of colds have started and I was the latest victim. The house renovations have taken up the rest of the little free time I have so I'm definitely feeling a little overwhelmed. I'm working on new exciting posts and hopefully another fabulous giveaway in the works. Hope for everything to be back to normal this week!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">As you can tell from the photos my life is complete chaos right now living with 2 small children in the middle of a building site. I've really enjoyed reading along with Naomi of <a href="http://naomipicks.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/mews-news-my-house-renos.html">Coulda Shoulda Woulda</a> with her mews house renovations and has inspired me to share what my life is like right now. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">When we moved into our Victorian terraced house 3 years ago we were completely overwhelmed with all of the space just coming from a small 2 bedroom flat. Fast forward a couple of years and 2 kids later we are pretty much busting out of this house. We are in the middle of extending our kitchen and because of all the structural work involved we pretty much have to tear down the back half of the house and start over. With things costing a fortune in London it's not in the budget to move out during the construction. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">My son was really excited about the tools and builders until he quickly realized that it meant that all of his toys have moved to storage and there is very little space to run around. </span><span style="color: #666666;">Because the kids are on different sleep schedules we moved my daughter into my son's room since she goes to be about 1.5 hours before him. And my son's little toddler bed now sits at the foot of our bed which he is pretty annoyed about. He is really into his own space and actually despises sleeping in the room with us. My wonderful husband pointed out yesterday that we are about 1/3 done with the project and it feels like an eternity already. Trying to stay really positive about the whole thing because we are getting to build our dream London house and all of the </span><span style="color: #666666;">inconvenience</span><span style="color: #666666;"> is so worth it. The builders are all working really hard and the poor guys are getting rained on nearly everyday. It's insanely loud and dusty as our neighbors got bought out by property developers and building works are going on </span><span style="color: #666666;">simultaneously. Luckily everyone in this house is a sound sleeper and the kids can sleep through the noise. All of this construction is so typical in London currently and you can walk down any street and a handful of houses are being extended or having basement excavations. It's the sign of a booming property market!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">On top of it all, it's become winter overnight and it is freezing cold inside the house. We thankfully got hot water back but the radiators have still not been hooked up yet. The only thing separating the back half of the house to the outdoors is a couple of pieces of timber so we are layering up and I really need to dig out the gloves. The builders have kindly built me a temporary kitchen in my living room and I'm getting quite creative cooking with a microwave, toaster oven, and panini grill (which I have hardly ever used before all of this). What is so ironic is that we spending a fortune building a bigger house but we are actually really getting by living out of 2 bedrooms, a make shift kitchen and no bathtub for the children to bathe in. You will frequently find me roaming the streets looking with 2 dirty kids searching for a bathtub and I'm so lucky to have such great friends all living within walking distance. All I can say is that this is going to be a long cold winter!</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">Hopefully by the New Year we will have a spacious and open kitchen to enjoy and I don't even know how many meals I will be cooking up to repay everyone for always taking us in and feeding us. I am very excited that we ordered our gorgeous aluminum bifold doors for the new kitchen yesterday and will be installed in 4 weeks time. It is seriously the most expensive item on the budget and they really will transform our kitchen. What I'm really excited about is that it means we won't be freezing our buns off anymore, well except for when they start tearing up the upstairs where our bedrooms are! More reasons to stock up on cashmere sweaters not that I ever really need a reason. In the meantime I will continue to fuel my Pinterest addiction and keep ordering wallpaper, tile and carpet samples to keep me sane.</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">The kids are finally back to school and the weather seems to have change instantly overnight. What happened to warm autumn days and the trees turning into warm colors? All of a sudden I'm dragging out my winter boots to trek through the cold and rain again. I'm on a hunt for some great boots for both kids as I am sure to be getting a ton of use out of them for the season to come. One of my favorite brands for children's shoes in London is <a href="http://www.papouelli.com/">Papouelli</a>. <a href="http://www.papouelli.com/">Papouelli</a> make beautiful and stylish kid's shoes with an European feel that are exceptionally well made. <a href="http://www.papouelli.com/">Papouelli</a> takes fit and comfort very seriously and understand that a child needs functional and practical shoes. I love that you don't have to compromise on style and you know you are putting a great pair of shoes on your child's feet.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">It's funny growing up my whole life just outside New York City I have never even thought about walking across the Brooklyn Bridge. This even includes a semester at NYU living in a dorm on Water Street right across from the Brooklyn Bridge. My 3.5 year old boy has become completely fascinated with the Brooklyn Bridge this summer and convinced us all to make the pilgrimage across. We ended up spending the day in Dumbo and really had such a fantastic day. I'm a huge fan of <a href="http://mommypoppins.com/">Mommy Poppins</a> which an amazing website for things to do, see, eat with kids in NYC. I found great tips on their <a href="http://mommypoppins.com/new-york-city-family-neighborhood-guide/dumbo">Dumbo guide</a> for our day on the other side of the East River and here are the highlights.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">The Brooklyn Bridge is definitely one of the most beautiful bridges in the world and the oldest suspension bridge in the United States. The upper level is a walkway for pedestrians and the views are spectacular from up there. Not only were we in awe of the bridge itself but when you get a really good look of the NYC skyline it really leaves you breathless. Although there are cars driving across the bridge just beneath you there is something so peaceful about being up there and I can't believe it took me 33 years to make it up there! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">PS - There is a flight of stairs up to the bridge so be prepared to lift the buggy/stroller up.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Just under the Brooklyn Bridge you will find <a href="http://www.brooklynbridgepark.org/">Brooklyn Bridge Park</a> that is right on the waterfront and you can enjoy all the views from down there. Most importantly there are loads for the kiddos to do including the famous <a href="http://janescarousel.com/">Jane's Carousel</a> which we unfortunately did not get a chance to check out. We ended up spending most of the day at the <a href="http://www.brooklynbridgepark.org/the-park/main-street">Main Street Playground</a> that is also know as the "pirate ship playground." Such a great way for the kids to run off all that extra energy while playing make believe on a giant pirate ship inspired climbing frame. The playground is tucked right in-between the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges so my son was in heaven looking in awe of both enormous suspension bridges. For all those train enthusiasts out there subways run constantly on the lower level of the Manhattan Bridge so needless to say this is now my son's favorite playground.</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666;">After our walk across the bridge and chasing the kids around the park, we definitely deserved some ice cream on that warm summer day. Luckily on the other side of the park at <a href="http://www.brooklynbridgepark.org/the-park/fulton-ferry-landing">Fulton Ferry Landing</a> you will find the famous <a href="http://www.brooklynicecreamfactory.com/home.html">Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory</a> which serves up simple and classic ice cream flavors made from the finest ingredients. The Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory is housed in the old light house at Fulton Ferry Landing and is total Americana. We ended up getting vanilla chocolate chunk and chocolate chocolate chunk and really tastes like an idyllic American summer served up in a cup. The best part of the ice cream is the views it comes with!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">If you are ever in Manhattan with or without the kids, a trip over to Dumbo is such a great way to spend the day and not to be missed.</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">My go to brand for stylish and classic children's fashion is always <a href="http://bit.ly/1fzZKNf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Ralph Lauren</a>. They really know what they are doing when it comes to designing for the little ones while capturing a true American spirit in every collection. What I love most is that all of the clothing from the newborns to teens are practical and functional without having to sacrifice an ounce of style. Each collection is really well thought out including any item of clothing or accessory you would need to get your kid through the season from amazing outerwear, stylish knits, coming home outfits for newborns and so much more.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #666666;">On August 5, 2013 <a href="http://bit.ly/1fzZKNf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Ralph Lauren</a> invited moms and daughters to view their latest collection for fall and holiday 2013 at the "Day at the Stables". The amazing fashion event <span style="font-family: inherit;">took place at the </span>Wölffer Stables in Sagaponack, NY which served as a picture perfect backdrop for a collection infused with the equestrian spirit capturing the classic preppy heritage lifestyle of Ralph Lauren. Check out the entire fashion show below filled with adorable models and just imagine that you are sitting front row.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; line-height: 20px;">The first part of the fashion show showcases the fall 2013 collection that is filled with preppy colorful pieces which are perfect for back to school. Next followed by outfits inspired by Downton Abbey with pretty flirty florals mixed with masculine tweeds inspired by 1930's menswear modernized for you little fashionista. The holiday 2013 collection features the spirit of Rustic Americana reminiscent of an idyllic Adirondack Holiday and last but not least glitzy glamorous styles perfect for elegant uptown affairs as well as chic downtown celebrations.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; line-height: 20px;">The collection is just fabulous and I wish I could shrink myself to fit into one of those chic little blazers that will work well into the spring season as well. My absolute favorite trend from the fashion show was of course the animal print that is right on for this season. The leopard and zebra print sneakers and ballet flats would add a little je ne sais quois to any outfit and I must get my hands on the furry leopard print jacket for my little girl (I may need one for me too)! The bold colored coats seen throughout the collection are sure to brighten up the gloomiest day while keeping the girlies dry and warm. I'm sure your daughter is constantly running around in leggings and the riding pants from this season's collection are such a great and stylish alternative to the plain jane legging. I'm also really digging all of the tweed jackets and coats that can be dressed down for everyday wear or glammed up for those special holiday occasions. The collection is so perfectly preppy, American and Ralph Lauren.</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666; line-height: 20px;">I love that the event was such a special day for mothers and daughters to bond and after the fashion show guests were treated to a debut performance from Def Jam recording artist, Madison Beer, and lots of girlie activities including an Essie Nail bar, a hair braiding bar, Dylan's candy bar, and the ever popular photo booth. There were lots of celebrity mommies on hand at the "Day at the Stables" such as Jessica Alba, Christie Brinkley, Edie Falco and Tiffany Thiessen with their little fashionistas for the event all decked out in Ralph Lauren.

<span style="color: #666666;">One of the highlights from my summer in the States was getting to spend time with my brother who lives in the hipsterville of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I must admit I was really beginning to feel old and totally not with it walking around there without big framed glasses and a couple of tattoos. My 3.5 year old son however felt completely at home and is still demanding we move to Brooklyn. Williamsburg is filled with fabulous gourmet destinations and trendy boutiques and well worth the visit over the East River. When it feels like parts of the city are becoming outdoor shopping malls with the same brands and chain stores taking over area by area it is truly refreshing to find a place with so much character and plenty to explore. You definitely will not find a Starbucks in Williamsburg!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">My brother brought us to the <a href="http://www.vanleeuwenicecream.com/">Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream</a> truck parked on Bedford Ave and N 8th St and told me it was the best ice cream ever. When anyone prefaces anything as "the best" I am pretty skeptical but I must say he was absolutely right and I am hooked. I actually lie awake at night thinking about this ice cream and going through withdrawal now that I'm back in London. We might just have to move to Brooklyn </span><span style="color: #666666;">after all to get my fix. What is extraordinary about this ice cream is that it is so rich and creamy without being over the top with the perfect </span><span style="color: #666666;">balance of flavors and it isn't too sweet. It is clear for the second you taste the ice cream that only the finest and purest ingredients are used as the ingredients.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I've tried several of the flavors and going to make it my goal to try all of them. The Gianduja is a blend of rich chocolate and hazelnuts and is heaven on a cone. Strawberry actually tastes like fresh strawberries and the espresso flavor has a kick and will happily fulfill any caffeine craving. The standouts are Van Leeuwen's unique flavors cinnamon and my personal favorite earl grey tea. My kid now orders cinnamon every time we are at a restaurant or ice cream shop and seriously needs a reality check. It is the earl grey tea ice cream that I cannot stop thinking about and I can still remember the taste so vividly.</span></div>

Plenty of trucks scattered throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan daily so be sure to check out their </span><a href="http://www.vanleeuwenicecream.com/">website</a><span style="color: #666666;"> for locations and look it up in Google too because there are lots of trucks out that are not listed on their site. Some shops are carrying tubs of their fabulous ice cream so hope you can find it in a shop near you or else you have a great excuse to visit Brooklyn!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">I was recently invited to attend the <a href="http://enkshows.com/childrensclub_aug/" target="_blank">ENK International Children's Club Show</a> in NYC to preview the latest in children's fashion for spring/summer 2014. The summer is almost over and I'm already looking forward to next summer vacation already. The neon trend is definitely still going strong for next year and lots of British and European brands are happily making their way across the pond. Here are some of my favorites from the show:</span></div>

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">I absolutely love the British brand <a href="http://www.rachelriley.com/" target="_blank">Rachel Riley</a> and the summer 2014 collection is just too cute to miss. Rachel Riley is known for their traditional children's clothing inspired by the 1940s, 50s and 60s. The collection is really fresh with pops of neon for both boys and girls that really stand out. Rachel Riley has definitely caught the Royal Baby fever and there is an adorable infant collection for all the little princes and princesses printed with crowns and tiaras. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">I am completely obsessed with ballet flats and can't live without them. <a href="http://www.yosisamra.com/shop/" target="_blank">Yosi Samra Kids</a> has seriously the most adorable little ballerinas in an amazing selection of colors, prints and designs. Luckily they do a line for adults or else us mommies with be really jealous! The flats look super comfortable and are perfect for all those little fashionistas. My favorite are the patent cap toe flats and may have to get those for my girlie in a couple of colors.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><a href="http://www.barefootdreams.com/" target="_blank">Barefoot Dreams</a> is another favorite in our house and both of my kids can't sleep without their fuzzy little blankets. What could possible make Barefoot Dreams better than it already is??? Hello Kitty of course! I can't get the Asian girl out of me and thankfully I have a daughter I can pass this obsession on to. The Hello Kitty collection is already available and we don't need to wait until next summer to get our hands on it.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">To get me through the cold and long London winters I have relied on <a href="http://7amenfant.com/" target="_blank">7 A.M. Enfant</a> since the birth of my eldest son. 7 A.M. Enfant make seriously functional accessories while looking tres chic. All of the pieces are made exceptionally well and my <a href="http://lattesandjuice.blogspot.com/2011/03/7-am-enfant.html" target="_blank">Le Sac Igloo</a> still looks brand new after all these years. All of the fun neon colors from the new collection are sure to brighten up any gloomy day. I definitely need a pair of the warm muffs for pushing the kiddies around this winter and the kids version for the scooter is just genius. In addition I'm digging their new bag collection and they have really thought through what us busy parents need when we are on the go. The Hamper is just genius and this is the exact bag I've been designing in my head for years. With a handy drawstring that can fit loads inside, a shoulder strap that can be worn and the best part it can easily be attached to your buggy/stroller with a Velcro strap. I've got loads more to share so look out for another post on their amazing pieces!</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666;">Staying safe in the sun is a huge priority to me and I'm always making sure my kids are properly covered up in the pool. It's probably because my husband's skin is quite fair and burns just by looking at the sun. Luckily the kids seems to be a bit more resilient despite seeing sunshine for only a handful of days all year long. <a href="http://www.sunuva.com/" target="_blank">Sunuva</a> has an amazing collection of UV children's swimwear that means you can worry about one less thing while out at the pool/beach all while looking very stylish. How cute is the skull design from the summer 2014 line? I'm also really excited about the infant swimsuit with the floats built in. Really wish I had one of these this summer!</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666;">It's almost the end of August and that time of year to start prepping for the kids to go back to school (hip hip hooray!). There is so much on the list to get but the most important thing is making sure everything that is properly labeled. There's nothing worse than spending all that money just to have it all go missing. Thankfully <a href="http://www.stuckonyou.com/" target="_blank">Stuck on You</a> have thought of everything a busy mom needs to make the back to school prep so much fun and more convenient. I've been a huge fan of Stuck on You every since I've sent my son to nursery a couple of years ago. The designs are always super cute and it actually gets him excited about going to school with a little surprise inside his clothes.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">My top must have item from Stock on You is the <a href="http://www.stuckonyou.com/library-bag.html" target="_blank">personalized library bag</a>. It's such a good size with a convenient drawstring that can be used on it's own or inside another bag. The best thing is that it is handy for all age groups and serves so many functions. You can pack a spare set of clothes, diapers/nappies, wipes and a cuddly toy for your little one to bring to nursery. It can also be used as a swim bag or to keep sports clothes in when the kid are older. I actually just use it when I'm out and about with each of my kids' things stashed separately in their own bags. There are so many adorable designs to chose from too with a fun striped lining on the inside.</span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;">Stuck on you is known for their fabulous name and clothing labels and I seriously cannot live without them! All of the designs are super cute and I love how much you can personalize them from style, color, and font. The <a href="http://www.stuckonyou.com/labels/clothing-labels/kids-clothing-labels/kids-designer-clothing-labels.html" target="_blank">iron-on name labels</a> are really easy to use and stay on there even after loads of washer/dryer action. My son wears a uniform at his Montessori nursery so it is crucial that everything is labeled. These labels really make his uniform pop out when they are mixed in with all of the others so it's easier to find his clothes on playdates with his school friends. My son is very into super heroes currently and the Super Strong labels are perfect for him. The <a href="http://www.stuckonyou.com/labels/name-labels/kids-name-labels/kids-designer-name-labels.html" target="_blank">designer name labels</a> are another one of the products I cannot live without. The literally just stick on and so simple to use. Great for lunch boxes, drink bottles, snack containers and of course toys. All labels are dishwasher and microwave safe and you can't get more practical than that! I could not resist the Parisian Oui Oui design for my daughter.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Right across the street from the Four Seasons Biltmore is a private members club the <a href="http://www.coralcasinoclub.com/index.php" target="_blank">Coral Casino Beach and Cabana Club</a> that is owned by the Four Seasons. Luckily for us, all hotel guest get to use the Coral Casino as part of the resort and this is where we spent most of our holiday. The Coral Casino is so super glamorous and spacious with an Olympic size swimming pool, kiddie pool, direct access to the beach, changing rooms, gym and 2 restaurants. It was so nice to sit around in the sunshine with gorgeous ocean views while the kids splashed around in the little swimming pool. The staff are as lovely as ever and the reception desk sell loads of necessities from sunblock to swim nappies/diapers which I of course forgot.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">There are a couple of dining options at Coral Casino. Tydes is the more upscale dining experience located upstairs with panoramic ocean views and the poolside Coral Cafe is more casual with delicious and fresh food. The best option is the lovely waiters bringing your food right to your sun lounger without having to move or lift a finger. There are plenty of choices for the kids on the kids' menu including an oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwich dipped in chocolate!</span></div>
