If you’re looking for a party, I can tell you that it’s happening right now over at Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au.  Every time I visit the store – which is often, it’s a favourite! – something exciting is going on, and there’s always something new for me to fall in love with.

Take right now for example: Winter stock is beginning to arrive, and that always gets me excited – I love winter fashion.  I’m really impressed by Bonds this season; what used to be a good-but-basic brand has really come into its own in recent seasons’ collections and the current Bonds range is hip and happenin’.  Funky prints, great colourways and incredibly comfy fabrics make it a winner in every way, but when buying just remember to go up a size as Bonds gear is traditionally on the small side.

Also new at Little Styles is the iconic Sophie the Giraffe, or Sophie la Girafe as she’s known in her native France.  We have a Sophie in our household and she’s just gorgeous – lovely soft 100% natural rubber, her sweet smile and her happy squeak make her incredibly popular with me and my five month old.  If I’m going out and need something to entertain him, Sophie is the first thing I throw in the nappy bag. Little Styles also stock Sophie’s friends, the Chan Pie Gnon chew toys.  Too cute!

Yet more new arrivals include Skip Hop’s Zoo Packs, the fabulous and colourful Lifefactory WeeGo glass bottles, new Tiger Tribe (see below for TT soft toys, adorable), new Sparkle T, new Alex bath toys, new Hess-Spielzeug baby toys, and loads of top ups of styles that sold out over Christmas.  Terri and her team sure have been busy!

The Little Styles huge summer fashion sale is in full swing, with up to 60% off on top brands, including Oobi, Sooki Baby, Bonds, Big By Fiona, Gaia and Purebaby.  And speaking of discounts, you’ll want to take note of this:  Terri is giving KidStyleFile readers 10% off store-wide, including sale stock, *on all orders $65 (before postage is added).  This offer ends aat midnight 12 February 2010.  Enter the discount code ‘febfun‘ at checkout to redeem.

The name might be Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au – but believe me when I say that there is nothing little about this end of summer sale. With big discounts on many top brands, including prices slashed by up to 60%, this sale is HUGE and it’s happening right now!

Just about all summer fashion has been discounted by 20%-35%, including BIG by Fiona, Purebaby, Bebe by Minihaha, Sooki Baby, Bonds, Tiny Tribe, Gaia Organic Cotton, Three Little Trees and Minti, and Oobi Baby & Kids is included too…and now that I’ve let you in on that little secret, I just know it’s going to fly out the door, so get yours before it’s all gone!

For those of us getting ready for the new school, pre-school or kinder year there’s a fantastic array of bags, backpacks, lunch boxes and drink bottles from BobbleArt, Rush, Alex & Charli and Tiger Tribe which are guaranteed to get the kids excited and off to school in style.  Whether your kid’s personal taste runs to penguins, cupcakes, bats, bunnies, cars & trucks or japanese dolls (and that’s only a start), you will find something perfect here.

Little Styles has a huge 2010 planned with new labels, an even greater product range (they already have over 1,800 products from around 90 brands!) and exciting competitions and giveaways.  They’re already getting off to a flying start with new arrivals from Bonds including the gorgeous Lil’ Wonder leggings and tees, and the new Roomies range which are predicted to be the next big thing.  I’m a big fan of Bonds and my kids have loads of their gear, but remember that the sizing is on the small side so always buy a size up from normal.

For one week only, KSF readers can take a further 10% off store-wide, which means you can get up to 70% off hot summer fashion and up to 45% off current season styles  The code to enter at checkout is ’sale’ and it expires at midnight on Sunday 11th January 2010.  Plus as always, take advantage of Little Styles’ next day delivery and flat rate postage – FREE over $150!

There are also two new labels instore – Tiny Mammoth and LilSpunk, which I’m really loving this season. I’ve just spent a blissful half hour browsing through all the new arrivals, and my shopping cart is bursting to overflowing!

The sale section is another happy half hour of browsing – Terri has discounted prices even further from many of our favourite labels, including Books To Wear, Tiny Tribe, Bebe, Marquise, Purebaby and a LOT more.  There are some genuinely spectacular discounts in here.

There’s also a brand new Christmas section, which is going to be added to over the next little while so it’s definitely one to keep an eye on.

It’s my first day back after a few weeks of maternity leave (did you miss me? ‘course you did ) and my first stop back just had to be the fantastic Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au.

This incredibly stylish boutique is a firm favourite of mine because of their stunning, easy-to-use site and the divine range of brands they stock.  We’re talking Oobi, Bebe, Woof!, Minti, Marquise, Bonds and lots, LOTS more.  It’s a huge range and has to be seen to be believed!

The new spring arrivals at Little Styles are just stunning.  All the bright, fresh colours, the classic cuts teamed with fun retro prints – I’m looking at you, Oobi! – and pretty florals, and crisp stripes… oooh, I’m just drooling looking at it all!

It’s very, very hard to narrow it down to show you some of my picks, but I do think it’s hard to ignore the adorable Bluebird & Honey pinafore dresses in bold new springtime colours.  These dresses are absolute perfection when it comes to fashion for little girls; they’re sweet and innocent, while still being playful and practical.

I’m also really loving the graphic tees and bodysuits from iconic Kiwi brand Minti.  In their 10th season now, this ‘too cool for pre-school’ brand never fails to impress me.  The ‘Bubble Bear’ tee pictured below is my pick of their current collection, and mums of girls will be glad to know that it also comes in pink.

Terri at Little Styles is kicking up her heels with all the newly arrived beauty and you can too with a store-wide 10% discount at Little Styles for four days only. Finishing at midnight on the 19 September 2009, the code you need to entr at checkout is, appropriately enough, ’springfun’. Spring into Little Styles and get shopping!

When I reported on the launch of online boutique Soda Pop Kids – www.sodapopkids.com.au a couple of months ago, many of you headed over and promptly feel in love with this fabulous store. And rightly so: Andrea at Soda Pop kids has searched the web to bring together a feast of the best independent labels for baby and kids clothes from birth to 4 years, many of which can’t be found anywhere else, complementing these with a selection of well-known quality labels.

Who am I talking about? Well, feast your eyes on: A Little Lark, Abe Jones, Three Fish Shop (formerly Babai Alainn), BabySoy, Baby Legs, Bask Home, Billie Shoes, Bella Tunno, Belle & Boo, Black Eyed Susie, Bluebird & Honey, Bobishi, Cocoon Couture, Cushie Tushies, Dine N Doodle, Frank & Me, Gracious May, Isabell’s Umbrella, Jack & Jane, Kunkle Baby, Little Chirpy Bird, Little Daisy Designs, Milk Lush, Little Moo Shoes, Moppit, Mountain Aven Baby, My Little Seat, O’Danny’s Girl, Ohme-Ohmi, Pedro Sprout, Oliver and the King, Quilt Baby, Raggidy Rag Dolls, Scandeez, Sooki Baby, Snoffs, Scummies, Sweetbeets, The Pat-A-Cake Baby, The Whimsy Patch, Three Little Trees, Twiglet, Violet & Rose, and Wasabi Kids.

There are also some new labels instore at Soda Pop Kids, notably 5 Plus 1, Little Choopie and Monstar Kids.

5 Plus 1 presents the most exquisitely crafted reversible matinee jackets for little girls – the choice of fabrics is stunning, as is the detail. 5 Plus One also make skirts and gorgeous pinafore dresses in the sweetest designs you ever did see. This label is a real standout: definitely one to keep your eye on!

Little Choopie produce a cute range of (very very affordable!) fabric covered hair ties and slides in retro-styled designs and contemporary patterns. I love the gift tin sets.

Monstar Kids are an Aussie label who have been on the scene since 1996. Their current collection has really turned my head: loving the robot tee for boys and the flower print dresses for girls, and the incredible lace doily print pants – you’ve got to see them!!

With winter now well underway, nothing brightens my day like finding new ranges at discounted prices to present to you all.  Today is a wonderful day, because I have discovered that Dimity at Just Ripe – www.justripe.com.au – has a whole heap of new gear in store just for our browsing and buying pleasure!

And to make things even better, Dimity is giving KidStyleFile readers 15% off store-wide until the end of June! Yes, that’s 15% off everything including sale items, and orders over $150 ship for free!!  YAY!!!  Just enter ‘KSF’ at checkout to get the discount – it ends 30 June 2009.

Now in terms of new ranges, there’s lots to choose from but here are some of my favourites:

There are lots of adorable new rompers from Albetta. I think the Bear one (below at no. 10) is too cute for words, and there are some gorgeous florals for girls in both traditional and funky styles. Albetta seem to use a really high threadcount of cotton for their rompers – the ones I’ve had in the past have washed up beautifully and they feel lusciously thick and soft.  I’m eyeing off these new designs big time, believe me!

Speaking of rompers, there are also some divine choices from Britt (see their Bear Face romper at no. 2 below), and I adore the Nurtured By Nature range too; their Cocoon Cotton knit fabric is absolutely delicious to touch and the colours are gorgeous.

But I think the most tactile product range here has to be from Infancy: their cashmere rompers are… oh, words fail me! Try to imagine the softest, snuggliest blanket you’ve ever felt, and then double its softness, and then you’re approaching something like the Infancy Cashmere All-In-One Suit.  And Infancy are also doing a line in sustainable bamboo fabric now, which feels quite a lot like a cashmere blend to touch.

Also new at Just Ripe are ranges from mill&mia, lots of funky and practical Walnut shoes, Bluebird & Honey and Books To Wear pyjamas.  There’s also been a huge new delivery of Alimrose, with loads to choose from – and all of the above is at 15% off! Sweeeeet!! Now go get shopping!

The prices below reflect the 15% KidStyleFile discount using the code ‘KSF’, and expire on 30 June 2009.
