The 21 Most Popular Posts on Fox in Flats

It’s been nearly two years since I first hesitantly clicked the ‘Publish’ button on Fox in Flats.

The idea for the site came after I was out with my two little boys and I noticed a mum in the reflection of a shop window. She was pushing a pram with one hand, her other hand was being yanked by a shaggy-haired child, and she was wearing a grey velour tracksuit. Her hair was scraped into a quick pony-tail.

We locked eyes for a moment… and then I realised it was me.

My reflection left me feeling as deflated as the sagging knees in those tracky dacks.

Things had to change. So I promised myself I’d find a way to dig myself out of the motherhood-induced fashion rut I’d found myself in. As part of my mission to do that, Fox in Flats was born.

I soon found out that an incredible 60% of women with young children felt they were in a style rut too. I wasn’t alone!

So I decided to create a place where we could all share tips, ideas and inspiration to make it easier to look and feel better while we’re wrangling our kids.

Since Fox in Flats first began, there’s been a lot of different articles posted about all sorts of handy stuff. But if Fox in Flats were a school, the following articles would all be part of the ‘cool group’, because they are the top 21 most popular posts published on Fox in Flats, ever:
