http://validator.w3.org/ A friend of mine recently showed me how her website had 0 coding errors as far as the HTML coding was concerned . Now granted all these tests read sites differently and basically it makes little difference to the visitor ...

what are the key features of the products or services that your business offers?: Designer maternity and new mum clothing, sizes 6 to 32

why should customers and clients use your services?
Unusual and imported designs, including US favourite Mamablack Denim! Head turning styles for the glamorous!Free UK P&P


When & how did you start up in business?
Officially January but the idea has been growing over the last few years. Styles suitablefor Mum-to-be and new Mum and many crossing over the two!

How did you decide what business to go into, and what was your motivation?

A lack of edgy styles when i was pregnant with my baby girl! I like to wear clothes that no-one else has and also believe Maternity clothes should be funky as well as functional

What were the most challenging aspects to setting up?

Sourcing the best styles in the UK...overseas offer more variety and fabric choices. I know have suppliers all over the world, some of whom make clothing bespoke for me so ensuring my customers get that point of difference

What has been your biggest business achievement?

I am in the process of launching a unique patented Maternity item...cant say too much but watch this space!!!

Have, or do you do anything out of the ordinary to benefit your business? As just mentioned..watch this space on that one!

What stage is your business at now & what are your plans for the future? Still in growth phase and always learning ..plan to build a loyal customer base and watch the sales soar

How do you manage to juggle your business with family life? Has it been challenging? Always challenging with 3 kids, one under 5 to entertain the most! I enjoy being busy. I also have several properties which need management , run the site and I am a recruitment consultant for the Luxury goods industry too..no rest for the wicked!!

How has online networking, specifically with other mums, benefited your business? So so, not sure much actual revenue generated but networking is always worthwhile

What resources do you NOT have now that might make your life easier? A spare pair of hands??!!lol

What advice would you give another mum considering starting her own business?Only embark on something you genuinely enjoy! Love what you do and it is more likely to succeed. I love fashion and buy to my tastes so its a pleasure when others like my styles!

Lafeenoire Maternity Launch “ Corset Couture” SPD and back pain support during pregnancy

I commissioned the manufacture of Lafeenoire “Corset Couture” to address a need for a Maternity SPD band that was not only effective in symptom relief but also was relatively attractive to wear. The condition SPD prompts Medics to prescribe the usual pain killers along with support garments that appear to be immobilizing girdles. Most of these garments immobilise the hips but are not so effective in supportin… Continue
