Description
Not So Mumsy encapsulates motherhood's new mood; edgy, powerful, honest and strong. - Marie Claire Magazine
Yes, you are a mum, but you're still you! For mamas everywhere, this is your Mother's Group in a book.
Parenting is hard, but it's also beautiful. For women who have embraced motherhood but also yearn to retain a sense of self and style, Not So Mumsy has been a pioneering site driving the Modern Mama movement. Bridging the gap between pre-mama life and the whole new world of leaky boobs and puréed banana, Marcia Leone (aka Not So Mumsy) has always shared her journey with honesty and humour, providing a warm and inclusive support network for like-minded women.
With powerfully uplifting perspectives from inspirational mamas across the world, including Jaime King, Teresa Palmer, Megan Gale and Tammin Sursok, Not So Mumsy will help you navigate pregnancy, your first year and beyond with style, humour and confidence.
