Many houses around Australia have been taken over by football fever. It’s a phenomenon that seems to hit around this time every single year with the arrival of football finals. For me, it signals the arrival of a new clothes season and the opportunity to creep away and enjoy some much needed ‘me’ time whilst the males of the house are engrossed in watching a ball on TV.  Of course, this generally means shopping!

One of my favourite online stores to steal away to is Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au- who have over 2,500 products from 110 labels for newborns to 8 year olds to peruse and keep me amused throughout an entire game. With recent arrivals from Oobi,  Munster, BIG by Fiona, Gaia Organic Cotton, Minti, Baobab, Marquise, Books to Wear, Pure baby, Heavenly Creatures, Sooki Baby, SOSOOKI and Bebe PLUS, new to Little Styles, Baby Bloch and FLO Dancewear.

As an Oobi devotee, I have filled my cart up with delicious new season items including the Holly Dress in pink flower, the Roxy Short in Navy Stripe and the summer weight Boys Kurta shirts. For a bit of fun, I have my eye on the new Oobi Library bags and the Space Hopper.  Each item is truly oobi-licious!

Little Styles also has a wide range of kids decor, toys, accessories and gift ideas available. Great finds include the Lakeland Design bedroom collection with the loveliest patchwork styled quilt sets and super cool cushions – all will bring spring freshness to a room; Hess-Spielzeug German made wooden toys; Skip Hop lunchie bags (I’m grabbing the monkey for my own funky monkey!) and of course, my own personal favourite, the Giimmo night light range which continues to pop up on Packed to the Rafters each week.

Just some of the features include:

• Forward and rear facing modes

Gosh I love spring! It’s the perfect time for new beginnings, a new wardrobe and an opportunity to take some time out and smell all the gorgeous flowers blooming in the garden. Chicks hatch from their eggs, the lizards start climbing out from the dark to rest on the rockery and the kidlets are finally released into the back yard to giggle, jump and tiptoe through the daisies. Oh yes, Springtime is glorious.

CornflowerBlue – www.cornflowerblue.com.au- has blossomed this spring with a whole new look and a wardrobe full of glorious organic, eco and ethical kids wear from Gaia, Green Eyed Monster, Purebaby, Fabrik, Ramalama and Monte and Tex ripe for the picking. With a streamlined shopping cart added, and bigger, crisper pictures, the rejuvenation makes shopping easier. You can even shop via specialist categories such as organic, fair, handmade and Australian Made.

As an 80s child myself, I have my eye on the Well Spotted Force Tee as Star Wars always makes me nostalgic and Master R has just taken a shinning to ol’ Luke Skywalker. Also in my sights is the Green Eyed Monster Chopper T-shirt because I always wanted a bike like that and I’m sure Master R will grin. For practicality, the Gaia BMIX Hoodie is lightweight enough for Spring but sure to keep the breeze at bay.

Of course, at CFB Miss N doesn’t miss out with so many choices. My first season picking is the Ramalama Pocket Dress as it’s perfect for holding her lippy (clear gloss – she doesn’t know the difference and a few coins) and the Green Eyed Monster Girls Shorts in denim.

Widen your Spring smile with 10% off all of CornflowerBlue’s new season stock especially for KSF readers. Enter discount code ‘KSF_SPRING‘ at check out until 20 September 2010.
