You know what I love best about La-La Baby - www.lalababy.com.au?

It’s not the great layout of the site, it’s not the fantastic range of designers they stock (see below for the full list) and it’s not even their amazing sale prices.

No, all those things are brilliant but what I love best is how bright and fun and fresh everything is.

Truly, have a browse and you’ll see what I mean. The site isn’t just packed full of bargains; the products have been so carefully chosen that it’s also a pleasure just to look around.

I did mention the amazing sale prices before, and I have to elaborate as it was something of an understatement. I’m talking about up to 50% off almost everything!!

Here is a list of some - not all - of the sale items:

15% off Chookleaf shoes - now $47.95

Save $2 on Huggalugs leg warmers - now $14.50

Up to 40% off Eternal Creation clothing and footwear (summer and winter)

Save 50% on La La Baby bibs - now $7.50

Up to 45% off Oobi Baby clothing and accessories (summer and winter, and there is a HUGE range here!)

Save $10 on Uchi nappy bags

Save $7 on Blue and Pink PouchMISS nappy bag converter (brilliant idea!!)

Ouch Baby thongs just $8.95

Save $10 on Monster nursery lights now $39.95

25% off Willow and Finn fine girls clothing

Up to 20% off Huggalugs bump huggers for pregnant bellies

$44.95 off Kideko kids bedding

25% off Itsy Bitsy baby rompers

10% off Annabel Trends tippy toes socks and babytalk growsuits

See what I mean? HOT DISCOUNTS.

And it gets even better: as a special introductory offer for KidStyleFile readers, Carli at La-La Baby is going to give you all a FREE GIFT with purchase! She’s keeping it a secret as to what, so you’ll just have to buy something to find out what it is. Going by her range of products it’s guaranteed to be gorgeous! Just enter KSFGIFT in the Comments box at check-out - too easy. Offer ends 15 August 2008.

La-La Baby’s range of designers is fantastic. Besides their own La-La Baby line accessories, baby shoes, stationery and toys, we’re also talking about Annabel Trends Tippy Toes and Babytalk, Oobi Baby, Eternal Creation, Miriam Berenson, Chookleaf, Bella Tunno, Ouch!

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? Designed in New Zealand by a pregnant mum who - like many of us - didn’t like the range of maternity lingerie she saw in shops (”I’m pregnant not ninety!”) set out to design a range of maternity lingerie that was practical and beautiful and sexy.

The result is just breathtaking, and it’s gaining quite a cult following! You don’t often see it at discounted prices, and Stork Baby have a great range so snap it up here while the going’s good!

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

Well, the weekend has rolled around once more, so it’s time to relax, put your feet up and get your credit card out. That’s right: today I bring you girlswear part two, gorgeous, groovalicious gear for girls aged four to seven.

Buckets & Spades

To get the ball rolling, let’s take a look at the MASSIVE sale section, with up to 50% off, at Buckets & Spades www.bucketsandspades.com.au.

I had great trouble singling out items to showcase here, because there’s just too much cool stuff to want to whittle it down at all!

That sale section is HUGE, it’s MASSIVE I tell you! There’s every designer you can possibly think of in there - Fred Bare, Diesel, Guess, Gumboots, Two Belles, Tommy Rocket, Eeni Meeni Miini Moh, BIG by Fiona Scanlan and so on.

You’ll have to dig through the 53 pages of winter specials (that’s not including the summer specials section) yourself to find out who else is in there. Now there’s a challenge for you

So what I’ve done here, just because I was so overwhelmed by all the choice, is just to pick out my favourites of the winter coats. It’s that time of year when everyone wants to be rugging up, and there’s no more stylish way to do it than with one of these pieces of gorgeousness below:

No links because Buckets & Spades is a frames-based site, but the search function works well so use that to hunt down your bargains!

I am a huge fan of Frock You - www.frockyou.com.au - and I think everyone else should be too. What do I love so much? Well, it could be the funky-yet-practical-and-cool clothes, the super-cheap-and-super-fast delivery ($5 for Express Post!), the great service from Kat (do you read her blog? Subscribe now, it cracks me up every time it hits my inbox) and so on and so forth.

And that’s not even mentioning the great discounts that Kat gives KidStyleFile readers: 20% off storewide with the My Child discount code!

Prices quoted include the 20% off My Child discount:
