I just nipped into the newly opened Pretty Pregnant store on Upper Street to pick up some nursing tops for the forthcoming arrival of CLB #2. And what a joy it was. Big, bright and airy with super helpful staff and a handy play area for toddlers, I didn't want to leave. As well as stocking a great range of clothing (both smart and everyday) for mums-to-be from pretty frocks by BellyButton to bump-friendly 7 For All Mankind jeans, there's a good section of pop-pregnancy nursing bras and clothing by brands such as Swedish label Boob (I bought two excellent breast-feeding tops for half price in the current sale). They even offer an at-home bra measuring service - perfect for new mummies who find it hard to get out. North London mums-to-be have been somewhat neglected in the chic maternity shop department, with most of the stylish ones being located in South and West London (they also have shops in Dulwich, Clapham and Chelsea) but not anymore. Welcome to N1 PP!
Pretty Pregnant, 271 Upper Street, London N1 2UQ (0207 226 9822/www.prettypregnant.co.uk) Highbury & Islington tube. Open Mon-Sat 10 am - 6 pm, Sun 11 am - 5 pm.
