I love the Tip Toey Joey shoes. All-over leather except for the non-slip rubber sole (for the six months + sizes), these little shoes have an extremely nifty elastic back which makes it easy for parents to get the shoes on but difficult for babies to pull them off again. Genius! And they are so CUTE!

Have you seen the HOTmilk maternity and breastfeeding lingerie before?

Ok, back to the sales….and this one is a bit special: it’s one of the biggest premium brand sales I have come across. There are over 650 (!!!!!) items going cheap at the Buckets and Spades - www.bucketsandspades.com.au - mega-sale.

Buckets and Spades stocks kid sizes, boys and girls, from 000 up to 14. With everything from denim to dresses, boots to bows, I defy you not to find something you love here; I think it might be impossible, especially since most pieces are 30-40% off. (I think I might even have spotted something that I might be able to squeeze into in the kids size 14 items….more on that later….)

The breakdown is 530 item on sale in the Summer sale category (buy for the remained of this summer, or buy now for next summer) , 53 products in the Winter sale category (buying ahead out of season is one of my key money saving strategies; it’s definitely worth checking this section) and 107 pair of shoes (summer and winter varietals) going cheap too! WOW!

Brands on sale include BIG and ‘Fiona’ by Fiona Scanlan Fred Bare, Hula Girl, Eeeni Meeni Miini Moh, GumBoots, Piccolina, Guess For Kids, Gant, Trelise Cooper Kids, Tommy Rocket, Two Belles and European footwear brands such as Diesel, Giocattoli, Garvalin, Agatha Ruiz De La Prada and Bimbi.

To locate the goodies on sale, head on over to the ‘Specials’ menu option on the top navigation bar and select away, or choose from the categories chooser. With so much to appreciate, I recommend you take some time to make yourself a beverage, and enjoy the parade of well presented, quality products.

Here’s just a teeny sample to get you started. I’m going to have a little fun and play amateur stylist here (this could be bad news for my credit card, but anyway…)

You’ll get the picture that I like things to be a little thrown together, but you know, kids look great this way; it’s a visual splendor!

Two Belles Bombay Belle Lurex Dress $69.95 SALE $30.00. I always love this kind of dress because it can be layered easily: put a top on over or underneath, wear tights/pants underneath or not.

Wear Trelise Cooper ‘Stripey Mo’ pants underneath for practicality and visual kapow effect $55.00 SALE $39.00

Put these Fred Bare Silver Sparkle Ballet Shoes $44.00 SALE *JUST* $29.00!! on your groovy girls feet and you’re set. (Love these skimmer style shoes; remind me a lot of Morgan and Milo, but with a more do-able price tag. Also I just can’t do laces. These are the corners I cut so we can get out the door more or less on time).

For the little man in your life, this Fred Bare Factory Transfer Tee is crisp fun and super value at $41.80 $29.00 Match it with these Eeni Meeni Miini Moh Wide Waist Shorts $79.00 SALE $49.00 for summer cool. This may still seem like a bit for shorts, but you will be able to wash and thrash these over and over, and they’ll still come up smiling: the quality is just great.

On his feet place these Fred Bare Zebra Print Slip On shoes $44.00 SALE $29.00, and you’re ready to roll.

Another one for the girls (this is fun!):

Trelise Cooper Jack and Frill Top $63.95 SALE $49.00, matched with BIG by Fiona Scanlan Cargo Bocker Shorts $49.95 SALE $29.00 and Fred Bare Pink Zebra Ballet Shoes $44.00 SALE $29.00. Wear the aforementioned Trelise Cooper ‘Stripey Mo’ pants underneath the shorts (in cooler weather) to confound all conventions.
And for me (or your discerning teen)…this Fiona by Fiona Scanlan girls Doves in Pearls in Patriot Blue Tee $44.95 SALE $29.00. Size 14 is like a women’s size 12; a fine fit! The elasticated sleeves provide interest and elevate this tee from every day to happy day.

Postage is $5.00 per parcel up to 500 grams in weight, and $9 .00 per parcel up to 3kg in weight. International shipping is available.

Many online retailers have had a well-deserved break post the Christmas rush. Now they’re back, and clearing out their summer stock in readiness for next season’s supplies.
