Once upon a time, a wonderfully talented mother with a love for fashion decided to combine her talents to illustrate and write a children's book series about fashion. That lovely mama is Clare Grove. She is a mom of three and currently lives in New Zealand with her darling brood. I was over the moon thrilled when she contacted me about her current book, My Mummy Loves Shoes. The illustrations are whimsical and bright, and bring back that childhood joy as we moms read it to the little ladies in our lives. (Or by ourselves, because it's about shoes!) Really though, what gal doesn't love shoes? 
Clare also has a line of beautifully illustrated stationary and cards. Aren't they splendid? I would be delighted if I received one of these in the mail or as a little note. I've started framing cards that I think are cute, and these are definitely in the frame-worthy category. These purses and hats give a little sneak peek of future books to come, too!
Be sure to go check out the My Mummy Loves site to read more about this fabulous book and the author herself. (You must see the pictures of her insane shoe collection!) Clare is also generously offering a promotion for 15% off her book. Just enter the code 'promo15' in the coupon code bar when you purchase My Mummy Loves Shoes here. This would make a fun addition to a baby shower gift or a just because gift to yourself. Trust me when I say you will want to add this to your library for you and your little fashionistas!
