Take a look at this beautiful video of their latest photoshoot (for Autumn/Winter 2011-12), below, and shop current and past collections  – selected pieces of the latter now being on sale up to 40% off – at the Nixie Shop.

55 Degrees North Celebrate Their 1st Anniversary In Style: 40% Off The Entire Current Winter Collection by Fixoni, Minymo by Kidzone & Norlie!

Is it getting colder or am I just getting old?! Every winter I seem to be saying “it’s never been this cold here before”, and I truly sound like I’ve been alive forever when I start on the “I don’t think there’s been a winter this cold since 1945″ train of chatter!  With temperatures rarely reaching double digits and sometimes not even making 0 degrees, it is no wonder that the Danes have dressing children for winter down to a fine art. They choose warm materials that are very well lined, therefore ensuring that their little ones are not hindered by the freezing temperatures. The gorgeous clothes are designed with flair and a winnning combination of warmth and style - perhaps if you were growing up in Denmark you might even look forward to winter!

You can let your children frolic this winter knowing they have been dressed by the cold weather specialists by sourcing Danish clothing from the Australian online baby and kids boutique 55 Degrees North – www.55degreesnorth.com.au. This stunning boutique is brimming with gorgeous clothing from Danish designers Fixoni, Minymo by Kidzone and Norlie and beautiful shoes and accessories from Petit by Sophie Schnoor. As you glance through the photos on every page all the kids look so warm, snuggly and above all happy – winter perfection! You may also be interested to know that these brands are good enough for royalty - Princess Mary’s children are often seen wearing these beautiful brands! 

It’s hard to believe, but a whole year has passed since 55 Degrees North began and they are very happily throwing a 1 year anniversary party. With sensational timing for us, it’s a full blown celebration of winter with a massive 40% off the entire winter clothing collection! There is no code needed for you to enjoy these festivities, simply scoop up your items and head to checkout. Please note your time is short on this offer, as it only runs until midnight 30 June 2011.

Keep up to date with all the happenings at 55 Degrees North as they continue to grow by liking their Facebook page.

The Little Kidz Closet: A Treasure Trove Of Goodies – Up To 50% Off Sale & FREE Shipping On Il Tutto Nappy Bags

Posted: June 21st, 2011

Post written by Miki

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

The Little Kidz Closet – www.thelittlekidzcloset.com.au – is an absolute treasure trove of beautiful products for children and their parents.  The site is packed with so many goodies: furniture and decor, clothing, nappy bags, accessories,  prams, gifts and more!  The abundance of items means that it is a truly enjoyable website to ‘window shop’ through, but especially now as there are some wonderful new products in-store.

First and foremost, I just have to gush a bit about these *adorable* Apples Storage Baskets.  Can’t you picture these in your little one’s nursery or playroom and then storing  jewellery, hats and accessories as she gets older? And speaking of storage, I think these hip Hunter’s Hut Cases would look fabulous storing my boys’ various bits and pieces – and they’re hardy enough to withstand the rough use they’re bound to receive!

Now, hands up who is expecting a baby soon, or knows someone who is?  You need to check out these gorgeous Designer Mama Hospital Gowns. No more feeling revolting in a drab hospital gown which gapes at the back and makes you look like you belong in some kind of institution! Now you can feel like a princess in genuinely pretty gowns, but they still have all the features you need including openings for breastfeeding and skin-to-skin contact, any tubes you might need in place and they snap up at the back (no bare bottoms here!).  They make lovely gifts for an expectant mother but you could also buy one for yourself if you’ve a little one on the way.

Also make sure you have a good hunt through the enormous Sale Section at The Little Kidz Closet where you’ll find up to 50% off this season’s clothing and accessories! There’s a huge selection of fantastic bargains including loads from Mista TJ and Three Little Trees – woohoo!  And there’s a FREE shipping offer on all Il Tutto nappy bags until 30th June 2011!  You don’t need a code, just add an Il Tutto to your shopping cart.  Enjoy!
