Monochrome Magic


Black and white continues to be the sophisticated leader in fashion. It’s a winner because it’s a look that’s easy to wear and so stylish and classic in every way. This year, Funmum.com have embraced the look and designed some gorgeous maternity wear outfits featuring a monochrome pallete but warmed with flashes of bright colour from lemon to raspberry hues.

Rachel Phillimore, leading fashion designer for Funmum.com, says: “the popularity of a monochrome colour palette has grown over the years. But we have given the look more depth and have accessorized our maternity fashion designs with bold colours to give a new dimension to this classic trend”.

GET THE LOOK: Funmum.com’s new SS10 maternity collection features some monochrome classics starting with... the Monochrome Top by Funmum.com

Spring Clean your New Look with Top Maternity Fashion Tips from Funmum.com


Ahh, the start of Spring, can you feel it in the air?
Are you ready and in the mood for some Spring Cleaning?

As we wave goodbye to the Winter Blues (in the Northern Hemisphere that is) and say hello to Spring, here at Funmum we have been super busy designing a fabulous new Spring Collection! Before the great unveiling, we first wanted to share some "hot maternity fashion tips" with you from our own resident Funmum Designer, Rachel.

Rachel's Top Maternity Fashion Tips.....

1. A great pair of Maternity Jeans is a must-have in your maternity wear wardrobe. Too many women try to wear non-maternity jeans when they are pregnant but in bigger sizes to fit the belly. The problem with this is that they tend to look baggy and ill-fitting everywhere else. Funmum has a great & extensive range of maternity jeans that look just like regular jeans but have a flattering fit and are made to adapt to your changing figure. My personal favourite is the Authentic maternity jeans available from Funmum, available in all lengths and sizes. These gorgeous jeans are a must-have for every mum-to-be this season. With their distressed design, gorgeous pocket detailing, extra-large hemline and feature buttons you can’t go far wrong. We have designed some great hidden extras too such as their super-stretchy rib waistband, natural denim stretch and concealed buttonholes to accommodate growing bumps.
Not only do they look great, but feel fantastic for sensitive bodies and growing tums?

2. Another must for your maternity wear wardrobe is a Wrap Dress that is flattering, easy to wear and comfortable. This can take you to work or a casual outing. You can also team it with some statement accessories for a dressier look. The Funmum Black Wrap Dress is the ultimate in classic style, simple design and luxurious fabric.

3. Comfortable Maternity Leggings are an essential part of your wardrobe all year round. This is a great trans-seasonal staple that you can layer under dresses and skirts. At Funmum we have the perfect super-comfy, soft leggings created from a viscose/elastane fabric which has amazing stretch. They have a great underbelly fit and will hug your body for comfort. Available in black and green colours too!

4. Empire Line Tops are not only comfortable but flattering in that they enhance your beautiful (ever changing!) shape. Match it with jeans, pants or a pencil skirt. Our Funmum Drawstring Empire Line Top is bursting full of design features. Not only does it come in a gorgeous marine colour with unusual floaty sleeves, but it features a cute drawstring under the bust which creates a flattering empire line. Dressed up or down - this one’s sure to be a winner in your Spring/Summer Maternity Wardrobe.

5. With your bust growing it is important to invest in a few Maternity Breastfeeding tops. At Funmum we have designed a gorgeous selection of Breastfeeding Tops with a cross-over section sewn into the sides they are idea for post-pregnancy breastfeeding. Perfect!

More Fashion Maternity Tips and the showcase of our New Spring Collection will be coming soon - stay tuned!

Funmum.com has listened to customer demands & the result,.”a whole new twist on breastfeeding fashion”!


Question from a Satisfied Funmum.com ‘Mum’:
Six months after the birth of my darling daughter, I'm returning to work as an architect at an inner-city firm. I'm still breastfeeding and pumping. Can you recommend some smart tops or dresses that come with rapid access to the dairy cabinet?
Funmum.com Reply:
A big pat on the back to you! Not only have you surmounted the often insurmountable - by surviving the first six months of motherhood with enough spring in your bounce to return to work - but you're also rising to architectural heights by choosing to breastfeed your baby. Woo hoo, we all applaud you!

Now aside from the fabulous nanny, the cleaner and, dare we say, the cook (yes all working mums DO dream about these luxuries), what you really need is sound wardrobe advice. Easy, inconspicuous access is key when it comes to dressing for breastfeeding and expressing.

Effortless is also useful. Avoid silks as they require dry-cleaning, and breast milk, not to mention vomit, can leave noticeable stains.

Classic design is best and the wrap dress is ideal. Funmum have reworked the simple maternity dress this season and designed a gorgeous classic style with luxurious fabric. It features a flattering v-neck created by the crossing of fabric wrapping making it ideal for breastfeeding.

Now, as every breastfeeding worker knows, pumping (expressing) and dumping (storing) is a complete science. You need clothes that work with you. Aside from the classic black wrap dress, there's a number of fabulous (yes, you heard right) breastfeeding tops from www.funmum.com that don't look all matronly.

Funmum.com has designed some stylish and fashionable breastfeeding tops – all versatile so you can wear during the day at the office to that special night out and both pre and post pregnancy. See our top best selling breastfeeding tops below.

Once again, we applaud you Super Mum and now you can relax feeling confident that you are not only going to look stylish but feeling comfortable going back to the office. For a complete workwear solution, Funmum is offering a 3 piece Workwear package. Essential items to complete your Maternity Clothes office wardrobe and all from the stylish Funmum.com collection at www.funmum.com

There’s a whole new twist on Maternity Breastfeeding Essentials from Funmum.com

Funmum.com, Scotland’s popular & fashionable maternity clothes brand has taken on a whole new twist to the classic ‘maternity breastfeeding top’ with a collection of new breastfeeding top designs that are stylish, comfortable and essential for every maternity wardrobe.

There’s no longer the need to feel uncomfortable or hide when breastfeeding in public – because Funmum.com has listened to demand, and created a collection of stylish, comfortable and gorgeous breastfeeding designs for every occasion.

Since launching Funmum.com’s complete maternity clothes collection for mums-to-be, the styles have found their place in almost every pregnant ladies wardrobe. Only now, since extending our range of breastfeeding maternity essentials is that you have even more choice which means you have more fun in matching up your maternity clothes wardrobe with your vital breastfeeding essentials.

The main difference in our new maternity breastfeeding styles is versatility. Our gorgeous breastfeeding designs are created from the most comfortable and stretchy mix of viscose and elastane fabric to support and stretch with your growing bump through and beyond your pregnancy. All styles have ruching to the sides which frames your bump beautifully and the cross-over detail on the bust section is sewn into the sides making them perfect for breastfeeding.

Our new breastfeeding designs are a maternity wardrobe essential and our fashionable range of different styles means you’ll be wearing them from the office to that special girl’s night out and everywhere in between. With amazing and gorgeous colours to choose from, they are certain to be top of the list for any mum-to-be fashionista!

The new Funmum.com breastfeeding designs along with the complete maternity clothes collection can be found on line at www.funmum.com and if you need help on sizing, phone us on 0141 882 6333 and speak with one of our friendly expert advisors.
This season we can already hear all you Mum’s & Mums-to-be scream out,
“these New Funmum Maternity Breastfeeding Designs are made for me”!

Preg Head Myth Debunked

Does your Brain Really Turn To Mush During and Post Pregnancy?

After years of extensive and thorough scientific study, researchers finally have confirmed what many of us have known for years, that "preg head", otherwise known as "placenta brain" DOES NOT in fact exist and that pregnancy does not turn women into ditzy absent-minded airheads.

Mmmmm, so it's official then, pregnant women aren't stupid after all. Of course, that's not to say that there's no explanation for why some women feel more distracted and less able to concentrate when they're pregnant; just because there's no physiological cause for it.

Pregnancy can be both hugely stressful and incredibly exciting and having what sometimes feels like an alien lodged in your abdomen is a pretty mindblowing experience in itself; it's no wonder that some pregnant women find themselves unable to focus on other, less important things during this time. Not to mention the post pregnancy daily grind including lack of sleep which can often result in 'mushy brain syndrome'.

To hear from a Funmum Fan herself, we will be posting a an Interview with Angela Brotherton (mother of 3) from Glasgow who shares her own experiences of ‘Preg Head’.

We'd love to hear from YOU so why not share some of your own experiences and tell us what you really think.....

What's on the baby-naming horizon for 2010?

There are lots of things to think about when choosing a name for your child, as our baby naming posting article points out.

One thing you may want to consider is what's popular at the moment and what's not. You might feel differently about naming your little boy Jack once you know it's been the most popular boys' name in England and Wales for the past nine years!

What we can all agree with is that every parent wants to give their baby the perfect name — one that expresses their family’s tastes and values, complements their last name, and gives their little one the best possible start in life.

At the same time, history has shown that the baby girl names and baby boy names parents choose are strongly influenced by trends. Those trends may come from any number of sources, including pop culture, fiction, religion, politics, even the economy.

What’s on the baby-naming horizon for 2010? Check out the popular name predictions at the following - http://www.epregnancy.com/baby-names/top-baby-names-for-2010.

Based on other data from the Social Security Administration, we predict that the following names, whose popularity grew significantly between 2007 and 2008, will emerge as front-runners in 2010.

2010 Baby Boy Names: Aiden, Alijah, Brady, Braylon, Caleb, Hugo, Lucas, Mason

2010 Baby Girl Names: Ainsley, Amari, Brooke, Fiona, Gabriella, Hailey, Jayla, Kendall, Mia, Mila, Paige, Valentina

Good luck picking a name, and we hope you have found some inspiration from the lists above that will help make your search for the perfect baby girl name or baby boy name a little bit easier!

If you have a favourite baby name that you want to share with the Funmum Network share with us.....
