The other day Miss Poppy dragged out her sunglasses from wherever they’d been hiding for the last few months and it was soooo obvious she needed a new pair – a tad too small, a little on the wonky side and slightly too ‘young’ looking (now that she’s almost 4). I am thinking of getting her one of these ultra-stylish pairs of Frankie Ray sunnies from AU label Eye Tribe. Designed for 3-13 year olds (pictured below are a few of the ’smaller’ styles suitable for 3-8’s) the range includes vintage, aviators, oversized, classic, coloured or retro glamour. Now I just need to decide on which pair for Poppy!

Not to forget the boys, here’s a few of my favourites from the other range…

Have a great weekend everyone and I’ll see you back here on Monday!

There’s something so irresistibly cute about baby onesies – especially when they’re handmade and as gorgeous as these! As my little man is quickly approaching the 1 year mark this summer he’ll be graduating to tee and shorts but I still love a good little ‘bodysuit’. This Jupiter’s Child Peace Chicken creation would have to one of my absolute favourites!

Only just discovered Small Town (where had it been hiding??) but I am totally loving all of their onesie designs. I decided not to nuts and feature the entire range so here’s a fab olive carp design that definitely caught my eye.

For something a little different I found this Unique Is A Fingerprint, As Is The Shape Of My Heart onesie by Truly Sanctuary. Beautiful little design and such a cool concept!

And what could more lovely than a Lovely onesie by Materialistic (seen here in the divine teal colour)? I am adding this one to my ‘gift list’ for preggie friends! via Growing Up Green

Last week my poor little Poppy had a very public wardrobe malfunction at our local shops. Her denim skirt ended up around her ankles as she skipped along the footpath (hilarious according to her and the cafe crowd who caught sight of it happening). If only she had one of these handmade Hip Brown belts I wouldn’t have to watch her hoist that darn skirt up every 5 seconds (it’s her favourite – can’t ditch it. Yet!). My eyes are on the Hip Jean, Hip Polka and the vintage Hip Charlie. Love the handcrafted red zephyr vinyl lining as well. Very hip indeed!

Congrats to Eliza Whitton, Megan ‘Mouse House’ and Debbie Rose – winners of the Noah and Bells giveaway!

HUGE thanks to the lovely Deahne for offering 3 lucky readers a $50 Noah and Bells gift voucher!

Yesterday I featured a little cottage table tent illustrated by AU designer Binny and today I just had to share with you all her stunning new wallpaper collection for childrens’ rooms. The range has just launched in Sweden and will soon be released in Asia Pacific (I am staying tuned to her blog for more details). Lovin’ the Lazybones and Pups In Cups!

My little Poppy has been featured on Modern Kiddo! Modern Kiddo is one of my favourite blogs and is run by the fabulous Alix and Dottie, two vintage and design lovin’ mamas. If you haven’t visited their lovely blog make sure you stop by and let them know I sent you! Click here for the full feature on Poppy’s modern kiddo style…

One of my neighbours has a great ‘table tent’ that her little one and my Poppy love to play under. She, however, is quite handy with a sewing machine whereas my skills are somewhat *ahem* limited shall we say (re-stitching buttons is about as far as it goes unfortunately). When I spotted this Cottage Table Tent I thought it was a brilliant little idea: perfect for indoor, rainy-day play, great for inspiring kids’ imaginations, a spiffy space-saving ‘cubby’, and it looks totally adorable (love the fact that it’s illustrated by Australian designer Binny). It just works on sooooo many different levels that it simply had to be a ‘must-have’ item.
