Myleene spoke to the YEP at Mothercare, Crown Point retail park to launch K-Baby, her new range of baby clothing, with snazzy colours and practical gimmicks.

Myleene, who shot to fame after she won Popstars, gave birth to daughter Ava in August last year.

She said: "Becoming a mother has changed me in so many ways but I'm enjoying every minute of it.

"When I got pregnant, I just went out and bought lots of clothes, all of them in pink. When Ava did come, I found half the things I had bought weren't in season, were impractical.

"I thought it would be good to have a range of clothing which was not pink or beige. So, whilst I do have pink, it's more edgy. There are pieces in black, which doesn't have to be a macabre colour. These haven't just been thrown together, I've sat down and thought about these and they have been tested by Mothercare to be safe and practical.
At the end of the day, all mums are hard working and they want value for money."

Myleene met mums and dads at the store and signed autographs.

* The YEP's annual Baby of the Year competition, which is taking place at Mothercare, runs until Saturday. To enter your baby simply collect two tokens from the YEP and bob along between 10am and 4pm. Readers can vote for their fave babe from Wednesday October 22.
