I first met Cara Delevingne at a Calvin Klein party during Cannes Film Festival in 2013. Wow, that sounds like a douchey sentence. It is, however, true. I was with a couple of fellow journalists when Cara arrived at the party alone, and not spotting any of her friends, walked […]

50 DAYS TO GO.
There are 50 days to go until D-Day. The end is in sight! I am bound to give birth on my exact due date right? RIGHT! So that’s only 49 more sleepless nights of backache and cramp to go! Because I’m bound to get plenty of good nights of sleep […]
My Spare Room Project: An Update
The nursery is finally starting to take shape, with 8 weeks until D-day. Mother Cox came over this week and offered her expert decorating skills to finally get the nursery looking like a home fit for a baba. Adam’s been busy fitting skirting, plastering and painting, so the walls were ready […]
Falling over at 31 weeks pregnant
I’ve been running around feeling pretty smug over the last week or so. People have stopped marvelling over the enormity of my bump, and instead consistently tell me how ‘neat’ I am. (I’ve always suspected I’m pretty neat.) I’ve been feeling good, aside from some back ache and a bit […]
Maternity fashion: A case for dungarees
It’s not easy to dress when pregnant. Especially if you usually dress in jeans, t-shirts, peasant blouses and leather jackets. The fashion industry assumes that if you’re pregnant, you must be a grown-up, and when it comes to fashion, I’m just not. I wouldn’t wear a polka-dot wrap dress at […]

Boy or girl? Or just a baby? An issue of gender identity and blue vs pink

Being pregnant in the #HeatWave
Everyone’s making Pimms and scouting for picnic spots. I’m sitting in the shade doing this: And I have to get into work somehow but I’m too wide to try and walk in 30 degree heat, London buses have recorded 45 degrees so that just leaves the tube. And there’s a whole […]

A year to the day: Isle of Bride #CoxsHens
Six months pregnant, it’s hard to believe that this time last year I was six or seven drinks to the worse at Isle of Wight Festival. With a stomach that looked like this: I’m now a little wiiiiider. (Oh and by the by, these Free People flares are my absolute […]
