Where Did You Get That? Ask no more: it’s right here! 10% off store-wide for KSF readers

Posted: July 3rd, 2008

Do you, like me, often see baby and kids goods that you find so irresistibly attractive that you find yourself asking total strangers “Where did you get that?”

Well today I’d like to introduce you to style-savvy sisters Toni and Melony, who through their passion for everything unique and high quality in the realm of baby and kids, can help connect you with all the coolest threads, shoes, toys, accessories and decor from both faraway and nearby via their new web store ‘Where Did You Get That?‘ - www.wheredidyougetthat.com.au.

Where Did You Get That? stock exquisite brands including Aden + Anais, BabyMoov Bebedelice and Lovenest, Bella Tunno, Bod and Bod for Bubs hair and skin-care, Coco Boheme, Coo Clocks, Deglingos, Djeco, eco.kid, Lelli Kelly, Moppit, Morgan & Milo, Opal London, Pink + Blue Yummy Mummy, Star & Rose, Tea Collection, Tommy Rocket, Two Belles, Zid Zid Kids.

I want to have a little rave about a few of my personal favourites new to Australia, and brought to you exclusively by Where Did You Get That? Firstly, Tea Collection, a US brand that promotes a multi-cultural ethos in design and celebrates children as “little citizens of the world”.

Before Where Did You Get That? came along I always sourced Tea Collection from the US. Needless to say, I am so thrilled to have a local supplier!

Tea Collection make two affordable ranges: Tea Collection for kids 2+ and Daily Tea for 0-2 years.

I can tell you from personal experience that the quality of Tea Collection is just superb. The cottons they use never pill or fade, and the cuts are tailored beautifully.

Their jeans are the best fit I have found (adjustable waist joy!), and the denim is softened to prevent chafing.

The dresses are thoughtfully designed, and always feature beautiful detailing. To prove that I put my money where my mouth is, see the picture below of one of my daughters wearing one of her Tea Collection pieces: the Journey Dress, happily available at Where Did You Get That? so you can get a piece of the action too :)

Clockwise from top left:

Tea Collection Mendoza Boys 3 piece outfit - $155.00
Daily Tea Flower Fan Tunic - Limon - $29.95
Tea Collection Mopti Print Dress - Birch - $84.95
Tea Collection Journey Dress in Aubergine - $56.00
Tea Collection Tereli Yarn Dyed Indigo Pant - $64.95

Next on my list of faves is Morgan & Milo. An inspired addition to the world of children’s footwear, Morgan & Milo is the creative output of Mia Abbruzzese, who started Morgan & Milo to fill the gap for affordable, classic shoes. Morgan & Milo shoes have their heart in the quality of the past, and their head in the modern day, fusing fun and fashion in a way that is infinitely wearable, and never too precious.

Also in the shoe department at Where Did You Get That? is the unrestrained embellished decadence of Lelli Kelly from Italy. Not just a pretty face, Lelli Kelly shoes are designed for optimal comfort and foot health.

Clockwise from top left:

Morgan & Milo Navy Flame Slip-on - $44.95
Morgan & Milo Silver Sparkle Mary-Jane - $49.95
Lelli Kelly Iris Cross Mild - $105.00

Finally, you know I can never go past a good toy or decor piece. Where Did You Get That? is thrilling me with its well considered selection.

Firstly, Djeco from France. Djeco make a wonderful range of toys, puzzles and craft sets for kids, and Where Did You Get That? is stocking a comprehensive amount of them.

I just adore the Stamps Magical Dresses set which features ink pads, 14 stampers and 20 cutout princesses to decorate.

If you’re looking for amusement for smaller kids then the Djeco block puzzles make for a sweet occupation with their classic illustrations. Where Did You Get That? is selling the 4 packs so affordably too!

If you’re looking for an imaginative and unusual buddy for your little one then the divine Deglingos, again from France, fit the bill perfectly. Everything but run of the mill, Deglingos creatures are constructed of a range of high quality textured fabric that is sure to last a lifetime of companionship,

A delightful decor element is the Coo Clock from the USA. Besides being utterly whimsical this clock is clever too: it has a sensor that detects when it’s dark so it won’t bark, cheep or moo at midnight!

For out and about check out the Bella Tunno Designer Diner. It’s a funky, wipe-clean placement on one side and a reusable chalk mat on the other. It’s a portable imagination station for little artists and a traveling table for little eaters! Includes a 12 piece box of non-toxic colored chalk and a detachable chalk pouch. Never be stuck for entertainment when you’re out and about again!

Finally, one of my most beloved favourite brands, Zid Zid Kids.

Zid Zid Kids are pure imagination realised. Zid Zid Kids is a fair-trade company based in Marrakech, Morocco, and is the fusion of the creativity of husband and wife team Moulay and Julie, and Moroccan crafts-people. The result is stunning!

Where Did You Get That? is stocking bags, belts, shoes and these fabulous dress-up masks from Zid Zid. Bring the magic of Africa into your home!

House Specials: Gift with Moltex Nappies, FREE post on *everything* if you buy mill&mia, BOD for Mums, and 15% off Penny Scallan products

Posted: May 8th, 2008

Ah, I do love ShopHouse - ShopHouse - www.shophouse.com.au - Bronwyn always has lots of great new products coming in, with fab offers on them to boot.

(Her customer service is stunningly good too: I hear often from you guys that you heart the ‘House :) )

Latest news is that ShopHouse have recently started stocking Moltex Nappies.

Bronwyn is Mum to 3 cherubs, so she knows the drill on bottom-changes, and you just can’t beat a Mum’s endorsement of a product. Bronwyn switched to Moltex for her own babes about 12 months ago, and hasn’t looked back.

Bronwyn tells me:

“These nappies are brilliant. The quality is as good as You-Know-Who’s regarding absorbency, and I found that Moltex Nappies actually last the night time distance even better. They are environmentally friendly, to: they are unbleached, contain biodegradable material, and are 100% chlorine free: better for bottoms and the planet. “

Bronwyn believes in caring for little one’s skin from top to bottom, so when you buy your Moltex Nappies, you’ll also receive a complimentary tube of WotNot Sunscreen (30+ SPF), valued at $21.95! Wotnot contains certified organic ingredients, and is self preserving: no artificial preservatives here! Safe for use on babies to grown-ups. This offer is available while stocks last.

millmia-winter-at-shophouse.jpg

On the fashion front, ShopHouse are now stocking one of my all-time-fave Aussie labels mill&mia.

This season’s collection is to die for; I’m digging red, blue and stripes, and they’ve got it all, projecting it all with a sense of fun and oh-so-much style!

We live in mill&mia long-sleeved tees: they stand up to the harshest treatment (paint, mud, parks, food, daily wear and tear and ruthless soaking and tumble-drying) and come up smiling. The prints survive all this too!

The cotton elastane blends means that the fit is great, and it doesn’t go all saggy and stretched.

The quality of mill&mia is just superb, and it’s all Aussie designed and made.

I just LOVE mill&mia - can you tell ;)

ShopHouse are offering KSF readers free delivery on entire orders that contain at least one piece from the Mill & Mia range, for the month of May. Enter the promo code ‘KSFMillMia’ to get free delivery.

Hey, that means if you buy just one piece of mill&mia you can load up your cart big time ‘cos postage on the whole order will be free!!
