I’ve spoken before about how much Athena loves to embrace Hygge. She’s definitely going through a home body phase at the moment and often asks to go home as soon as we’ve arrived somewhere which is not frustrating at all! Both she and Arlo have been chilling at home in their new Wolfie & Willow leather moccasins.
Athenas feet seem to be growing at a rate of knots. She’s now a size 8 and I’m hoping she’ll slow down a bit now so that these new trainers can get maximum wear! They’re the ‘Blaze’ from Bobux and are designed especially for little people who are constantly on the go, which sums Athena up to a T.
As you can imagine it was pretty nippy in the Alps last week! I was worried that we’d all be too cold to enjoy ourselves out and about but actually we had a lot of fun and nobody lost a finger to frost bite! Athena wore her Kozi Kidz Alaska Winter Parka every day and there were no complaints of being cold at all from her! Designed to cope with even the coldest swedish winters the…
I had an email a couple of weeks back from Minna, the lovely lady behind Pikku. Pikku means ‘little one’ in Finish, which is where Minna comes from originally. Now though she has not only opened up an online store selling some amazing brands and styles of clothes for little ones, but she has also opened a childrens hair dressing salon in Newcastle too, in a specially designed child friendly environment! I’m yet to cut…
Panda and the Sparrow make gorgeous baby clothes from bamboo, meaning they are heat regulating (keeping baby cool in summer and warm in winter) plus Bamboo also offers a natural UV protection, and is hypoallergenic. Most importantly their clothes and blankets are just so cosy for babies! Arlo has been keeping cosy in the sleepsuit and hat, under the matching blanket. There is nothing cuter than a baby in a knotted hat, and when that…
I’m so pleased to introduce another local-to-me baby brand this week for ‘what the toddler wore’! Babyzoo is a brand concocted and developed by Karen who turned her hand to kids fashion after working in womenswear and bridal design. The new debut collection is available on etsy right now, with plans to develop a website in the near future. The designs are just amazing, vivid colours and bold, realistic animal shapes. No cartoony images or…
From Babies With Love is a lovely company, donating 100% of their profits to help less fortunate children all around the world. I’ve written about them here, and introduced Maia who is a baby from Mozambique that was helped after becoming an orphan as a direct result of FBWL funds. Arlo is wearing their organic cotton babygrow in the frog design, cleverly incorporating an envelope and post mark in keeping with the company ethos. Even the…
I’ve got a gorgeous brand to showcase this week, one that is local to me too! Hiku Designs is run by Aga, a mum who lovingly creates bibs, blankets and other baby bits in some gorgeous designs! Arlo was lucky enough to be sent a Bib & Teether set in an awesome racoon print. The bib is bandana style with a soft backing and two poppers to adjust the fit. Arlo isn’t a dribbly baby…
