Something Completely Different: PRSPR boutique

25 Apr

PRSPR

I think I must have stumbled upon one of the cutest kids’ clothing boutique. PRSPR (pronounced prosper) is based in US and has a small but the freshest range I’ve seen in a while. Think popping colors, unique designs and never seen before combinations. Absolutely gorgeous! My cart is already bursting at the seams (it’s the one that has them apparently) I just need for the Papa Bear to look away for a few moments…

And if I might add – I was positive the prices are going to be cruel to my heart but they are so not! I think their price range can be compared to Zara’s but I bet the quality is far much better.

International shipping costs $25 which is about €20
 

The New Spring Velcro Converse

11 Mar

Here they are again – the new spring multicolored Converse sneaks! I love them not only because they are one of the cutest sneakers around but also because they are super convenient for kids since they can easily put them on by themselves thanks to Velcro strap fastening.

£25.95 (about €30) plus shipping £2.95 for UK (or free if you spend over £60) and about €8 for the rest of the EU at Hoboken Kids

Ps. Judging by my previous experience these will go fast, in-a-matter-of-days fast so if you’re thinking about it don’t take too much time. And I did a little research and I think Hoboken Kids have the best deal

Pss. If you never bought toddler Converse do check the size in a store on some other model before ordering just because their sizes run really big – we had to go two or even three sizes down!
 

Lovely Spring Collections

26 Feb

How lovely is this week’s selection? I just love the lovely spring colors, the diversity of designs and how everything can easily be matched together. All I miss is some sun! How is the weather where you live? It’s still around zero degrees Celsius here in southern Germany.

Everything above is available from Noeuf, Scandinavian Minimal, Mini Mei, Hoboken Kids, and My Little Square.
 

Les Pascalettes

25 Feb

I always cared about having cute bibs for Tila. I realize it’s a thing that’s meant to get disgustingly dirty but I want it to look good at least in the first half of the “process”.

What about you? Care or couldn’t care less? If you do, I know you’ll love these Les Pascalettes. The designer is Charlotte, a mom blogger from Paris so the site is in French only for now – but that will surely change soon.

The bibs are made of waterproof material and can be easily cleaned. That’s one of my favorite features in bibs, the other one – cuteness of course. And who could not love these adorable collar bibs?

They cost from €19 to €29 which certainly can’t be called cheap but on the other hand – they last a really long time!
Shipping to France is €5.90 (free when spending over €55), €15 for rest of the Europe and free when spending more than €70
 

Little Fashion Gallery Launches their own Collection!

20 Feb

Did you know that Little Fashion Gallery launched their very own label yesterday? And it’s just as I imagined – simple yet fun and extremely chic yet affordable. Sounds perfect, doesn’t it? It is.

They’ve also decided to come out in grand style so here it is – a whole 118 piece collection carefully designed for girls and boys aged between 0 and all the way to 10!

They did a really great job, don’t you think?
 

GIVEAWAY from Sunday in Color!

12 Feb

So it’s time for a GIVEAWAY again! But first thing’s first!

Sunday in Color is one of the most adorable, color-loving boutiques owned by a stuffed pig that is actually born and bread in Paris, France but has moved to San Francisco about two years ago and decided to open the Sunday in Color last October.

He doesn’t really believe in dividing the sections to girl’s and boy’s since all kids (no matter the sex) love colors and fun prints!
And as for a foreign pig living abroad expected – he is shipping all over the globe!

Take a little stroll through his store and you’ll see what I’m talking about. You will be amazed by the darlingness (look into a Baby Jungle dictionary)!

I have received a very kind email from this also generous pig offering an adorable Paper Balloon Set to one lucky reader. Is he cool or what? Oink oink!

All you need to do is let me know you want it but leaving a comment below and if you’re up for an additional entry just like their Facebook page and let me know you did it.
And if you share it with your Facebook and/or Twitter friend I’ll give you one (or two) more – but again, don’t forget to tell me about it.

Open Worldwide until Tuesday, 19th February. Good Luck.
 

This GIVEAWAY is now closed. The winner is Rebecca Broderick. Congrats!

The New BOBO CHOSES is HERE!

30 Jan

Ok, I love BOBO CHOSES ever since I first discovered it but they have simply outdone them with their latest SS13 collection.
Their pieces are always so fresh, unique, fun and simply irresistible to both kids and parents.

But like I said, they somehow succeeded to surprise us again. Their new collection is in one word – OUTSTANDING, AMAZING, ONE OF A KIND (ok, that’s three, I couldn’t stop)! The whole mix of colors, cuts and fun prints is something I won’t be able to say no to this year. I love, love, loooove it!

You can already get it from Noeuf and Scandinavian Minimall but pieces are selling out fast – as always. So don’t think for too long – just grab&ruun!
 

KUKUU Gorgeous Childrens Furniture

7 Jan

Another story about two incredibly gifted parents with an outstanding outcome! Aija, aka. Mommy is an architect and Daneks also known as dad is a designer and they decided to create a small line of children’s furniture under the name KUKUU. They strived to create simple, contemporary yet beautiful and functional designs that are safe for children and made of high quality, ecological materials.
Their first collection evolved together with their two little daughters simply by watching them grow and observing their needs when they started to crawl, pull up and walk.

If you’re from Germany you can get a few pieces from Tropenhaus web shop and others can simply send an email to Aija to aija@kukuu.eu and she can provide you with information on your nearest retailer or you can even order directly from her
 

Hansel from Basel

13 Dec

And when I already think there are no super cute (minus tacky) socks and tights for kids over 2 – wham, I find these! Now if these are not just too cute to handle than maybe I should stop blogging. Since Marimekko I can honestly say I’ve never seen cuter ones. Absolutely beautiful! And the good news is that, besides being made of organic cotton (giant teeth-showing smile on my face), they also come in sizes from as little as 0 and all the way up to 5 years!

The only thing I hate is too many equally darling color combinations – I mean, how the heck can I pick only a few? But they say feet don’t grow as fast after kids turn 3, right? So they might last longer… right? No? Sure?

Anyway, you can get them directly from Hansel from Basel’s web shop for €5.77 – €7.69 (socks) and €16.92 – €23.84 (tights) plus shipping to EU €10.73 or from one of the sweetest boutiques, Sweet William Ltd.

Ps. Women’s sizes and models available too!
 

For Boys Only: Little Titans tights!

22 Nov


I was just thinking if there are any special tights for boys out there at all and pop – here they are, The Little Titans! You can choose between dots, stripes, flowers and all sorts of other cool prints when it comes to girl’s tights but I’ve only seen one-colored ones for boys. Until today. Now boys can also parade around in these super cool, extremely fun tights. Made of cotton (Öko-Tex certified), inner part of foot area is made of even cozier terry the soles are non-slip and everything is wrapped up in one super cute packaging.

They come in three different sizes between 0 and 3 years and cost £14.99 (€18.50). You can get them directly from their own web store or over at Scandinavian Minimall
 

Must-have even for boys: Girlie Glue!

20 Nov

Tila got something in the mail today that each and every single little girl and even boy should have (despite the name) – Girlie Glue! It’s something between a hair gel and glue for hair accessories, or better yet –both! But before you frown let me tell you about the best part – it’s totally, completely, fully natural – only agave nectar and a few other natural ingredients; trust me – I’ve even tasted it to make sure!

Tila is loosing her hair clips on a daily basis, especially when her hair is freshly washed but today a miracle happened – I used the Girlie Glue first to style the front of her hair, put a clip on and it actually stood in its place for the whole day! First time ever! EVER!

It can also used with newborns to attach hair accessories or even to glue play earing and other fake face accessories like mustache etc. And it washes off simply with a wet washcloth! Tried, tested, approved and adored!
The texture is quite sticky though so I find it spreads better if I wet my fingers first. And you only need to use a teeny tiny dab!

One tube costs $4.99 (less than €4) and I paid for shipping to EU (for 2 tubes) $2.50 (€2)

Hopsan Sand Suit

10 Oct

Recently I received an email from Thea from Hopsan about their newest addition – the genius sand playsuit that lets all the little adventurers enjoy the outdoor fun without us parents worrying about them getting wet, dirty or god forbid – uncomfortable! These super cute sand suits are made from 100% heavy duty cotton with dirt and water repellant finish which means being very comfortable in any type of wheater condition.

Get splashed, go jump in the puddles, enjoy your sandbox and explore the nearest pile of mud now. And when you’re done just tell you mom to simply sweep away the fun left on the suit so you’re ready for tomorrow! Sounds lovely, doesn’t it?

The suit will soon be available from their own web shop but until then you can order by email info(at)hopsan.nl

The Sand Suit costs €35, the Jacket €39,95 or €69,95 if you decide on both. And the cap costs €19,95
 

Love, Love, Love: Collect Furniture

25 Sep

You should see me how excited I get over some finds. If you read my description you know I love Danish design, wooden products (preferably oak) and I truly appreciate craftsmanship. Now if you combine them all you should definitely not see me get excited – there’s screaming, annoying squealing, drooling, jumping and annoying look-at-this’s (inventing a new word here?) involved…ok, maybe I’m exaggerating just a wee bit here but that that’s exactly what was happening in my head when I “accidentally” bumped into this Danish brand called Collect Furniture.

Their designs are not only created to suit their basic purpose but also to encourage children to explore and play with it. They have also made sure that all the pieces meet the required environmental and safety issues in order for children to freely use their imagination and play with it without us having to worry about any health impacts that it might cause.

And finally they have not forgot about us design hungry moms either – their furniture is definitely one giant candy for my eyes! I can see it take the spotlight in any corner of our home.

You can order directly from their own online shop. Prices go from 849 DKK (€112) up to 2.595 DKK (€344) and shipping across EU starts at 100 DKK which is about €13

I’m saving for the table and chair set as we speak you read!
 

COS – Another Hidden Gem

14 Sep

I’m yet again astonished there is another awesome brand that I have never heard about before. COS (Collection of Style) is apparently H&M’s brand and is around for 5 years already and has since opened over 40 stores across Europe, Asia and Middle East. Its main focus is to offer good quality pieces at affordable prices.

If I’m completely honest I’ve never been a big fan of H&M, especially of their kid’s range but COS is something I would definitely be visit regularly! And thanks to their internet store launch in 2011 I can do that at least virtually for now.

Currently they only ship to 9 destinations for €6 only (thanks for including France!) but I’m sure they are going to add more countries very soon. There is also Men’s and Women’s range worth peeking at
