Today, we're celebrating, mothers, grandmothers, mother-figures, new mums, mums who are no longer with us, and those who hope to be mums. An occasion to honor, celebrate, and remember the women who shaped us.
I asked Founders Jenna & Tiana from Studio Disenos, (the creative team behind our submark) a few questions about motherhood, style and work life balance.
Jenna
How many children do you have?
2 boys ~ Dash is almost 3 and Marloe is almost 1.
What does it mean to be a mum?
My family is absolutely everything. The boys have taught me a love I never knew existed and that all the small moments together as a family are what really makes life rich.
What do you think you children would say is your best trait?
Patience and calm
Who are some women in your life that are influential in shaping who you are?
I was lucky enough to work alongside Sophie Bell for a few years, while watching her navigate motherhood a business and build her dream home.
Without realising at the time, this was so influential and shaped who I am today and the drive I have to provide for my family and have the best of both worlds, working and being a present mum.
As a successful working mum, how do you find balance and what are your non negotiable ‘you’ time things you love to do?
I definitely haven’t perfected a work life balance ha ha. I'm so passionate about my work and the ability to be creative so I feel extremely privileged that I haven't had to give this up.
Day-to-day non negotiable is starting the day outdoors, by the beach for a walk and coffee. Time with close friends, hands free and being present is equally important to me.
How would you describe your style and has it changed since becoming a mum?
I’d like to say it was motherhood that influenced my lack of style but I’d be lying. I’ve been living in activewear and loungewear for a few years now...
What is a staple in your wardrobe that you couldn’t live without?
A linen set.

Tiana
How many children do you have?
One - my little man, Koen.
What does it mean to be a mum?
It is my life’s greatest privilege. Koen is the most amazing teacher and has taught me so much about living in the moment and being present.
What do you think your children would say is your best trait?
I hope he will say my unconditional love.
Who are some women in your life that are influential in shaping who you are?
I would not be the person I am today without Jenna. She has helped me navigate my way through it all - in motherhood, relationships, business and everything in between. I am in constant awe of her and the incredible person she is.
As a successful working mum, how do you find balance and what are your non negotiable ‘you’ time things you love to do?
I think I am still working the balance part out - but movement is vital for me. I always start my days with a walk and some fresh air - setting me up for a productive day! Going to Pilates is one of my favourite things to do when I have some ‘me’ time. It feels so good to unwind and move my body.
How would you describe your style and has it changed since becoming a mum?
My style is definitely relaxed and minimal. A lot of loungewear and pieces that are easy to dress up or down.
What is a staple in your wardrobe that you couldn’t live without?
An oversized tee - It is my reliable go-to piece!
