You love Oobi, right?  Hey, we *know* you do, and we do too !!

Today’s news is going to have you doing a little happy dance around your living room:

Melissa at Urban Child is running a 48 hour only sale, with 25% off all Oobi stock!!

YAY!!! Happy, or what??

Full prices will be displayed until you’ve entered ‘OOBI48′ at checkout, at which point 25% will be discounted from your purchases.

This sale finishes at midnight on December 5 : that’s tomorrow night, so chop chop!!

Don’t forget that you receive FREE shipping on all orders over $150.00, so now’s the time to snap up that perfect Christmas outfit (or six!!)

There’s always a lot happening over at Urban Child, so stock your cart with cheap Oobi, then take a moment to explore.

Melissa at Urban Child has been busy stocking lots of stunning new lines, and, I must say, her taste is impeccable!  There’s not a product in the store that I wouldn’t love to own.

Choose from Aravore Babies, Oobi Baby & Kids, Neige, DwellStudio, Aden & Anais, Kidsonroof, Albetta, Little Chipipi, Walnut, Baby Bonkie,  eeBoo, Cocoon Couture, Peanut Shell, Alex Toys, Mooo, Baby Legs, Red Plum Linen, Red Wagon, Belli Skincare, Baobab, Caden Lane, Robbie Adrian, Crocodile Creek, Brio, WOW Toys, Mamas & Papas, Kaloo, Ellaroo, Urban Child, Infancy, Felt Creations,  Made By Angie, Look At The Wall, WOOF!, Schylling, and Pebbles.

Here are just a few of my favourites from that impressive line-up:

DwellStudio bed linen and accessories are uber cool and a necessary addition to any stylish nursery. My pick for a boys nursery (oh my goodness, I would dearly love to get this for my son’s room) is the Gio cot set and for a girl I think the Garden cot set is perfectly feminine and sweet without overdoing the pink and frills.

I also really like the new DwellStudio hand puppets (a couple of them are pictured below) with their gorgeous fabrics and felt features: too cute!  The hooded towels and bibs & burp sets make absolutely perfect baby presents as they’re both practical and beautiful – and isn’t that what good design is all about?

If you’re looking for special occasion wear for your child then have a look at the range of Neige at Urban Child.  Among the pretty dresses for girls and a very snappy summer suit for the boys you’re bound to find something perfect there.  I think the Belle dress especially is just beautiful!

2. eeBoo French Flash Cards, $28.95
3. Neige ‘Belle’ Dress, $89.95
4. Neige Preston Jacket, $99.00 and Neige Benjamin Short, $75.00

New Summer Goodies at Urban Child PLUS Win a $150 Gift Voucher and score FREE postage

Posted: October 11th, 2008

Today’s post written by Miki.

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

Wheep wheep! Cool new goodies alert! Check out the ‘new arrivals‘ section at Urban Child – www.urbanchild.com.au – and you’ll see what I mean.

Albetta swimmers and sunhats in beautiful vintage-inspired floral prints. Classic knits from Aravore Babies – in particular check out the flapper dress. Gorgeous new bed linen from Caden Lane. Hours of entertainment with games from eeBoo . Oodles of Oobi Summer goodness. All utterly impossible to resist!

Given that Christmas is fast approaching, now is a great time to check out the brand-spanking-new Christmas section too. Stylish (and generously sized) Santa sacks from Cocoon Couture and Mamas & Papas are headliners in here, along with the Mamas & Papas Christmas accessories such as the sweet little beanie toys and the advent calendar.

What I think is particularly inspired is the extremely well-stocked Stocking Stuffers section, chockablock full of brilliant ideas from Alex Toys, Felt Creations, Urban Child’s own top quality toys and musical instruments, and a great range of popular books along with loads more great goodies.  This is a one stop shop for Santa Sack fillers!

I actually placed an order with Urban Child just last week (I bought some Walnut shoes among other bits and pieces) and I was just delighted with Melissa’s friendly customer service and the super-swift delivery of my order.  I’m even more of an Urban Child fan now than I was before :)

And believe me when I say I’ll be going back for more Walnut shoes when these ones are grown out of – they’re beautifully made, practical, and offer excellent foot support for growing feet. Can’t go wrong for an easy Summer shoe.

Want to get lucky at Urban Child? Melissa is currently running a competition – spend $50.00 (plus postage) and subscribe to the mailing list for a chance to win a $150.00 Urban Child Gift Voucher!  (I can’t think of anything I’d like better for Christmas….check out the Urban Child range for mums!)

First up, some body love for new mums and little babes from Wedela. Baby’s Got Style is carrying the renowned Calendula Baby range, as well as Baby Colic and Teething powder,  rash relief cream, breastfeeding tea, Blackhorn elixir (useful for fatigue), nipple care cream and Almond face products.

A German company founded in 1921 dedicated to supporting the inherent healing properties of the human body, their motto is “In harmony with nature and the human being”. Wedela’s focus is firmly on the gentlest most nurturing care of your skin, without compromising nature – sustainability is paramount – and supporting the primary producers they trade with – Weleda contracts until Fair Trade practices. Wedela products are comprised of bio-dynamic ingredients, are free from chemicals, and are never tested on animals. You and your baby or child deserve no less, and with prices between $12-$26, you can well afford it!

To celebrate the arrival of Weleda at Baby’s Got Style, Daniela and the team at BGS are giving every customer who places an order in October a FREE Calendula Nappy Change cream sample.

Also, would you like to go into the into the draw to WIN an amazing Weleda gift pack valued at over $300? To enter all you have to do is purchase any item from the Weleda range during October (if you purchase two items you get two entries, and so on)!

Onto the fashion at Baby’s Got Style now. And boy, there’s a lot to talk about there!! Over 100 new kids summer styles, and over 200 babies summer styles have arrived in store in the last 2 weeks. Woah, baby! It’s going to be a hot summer!

I’m hugely loving Polka, a new range for girls. I’ve paired their Yoga Bum pants (back view shown: how cool are they?!) with a summery light Fresh Baked top, for a visual splendor of cool comfort, and their ‘Birdy’ dress is to die for. This is Polka’s first collection, and they had a limited run to test the water, which means once it’s sold out, that’s it, so get in quick!

I’m inspired by boys summer pieces too: I’m totally digging the Freshbaked Disco Beats Tee, with Ouch black cargoes and Rock Your Baby Peace Cap.

Onto face fashion now: new at Baby’s Got Style are the the range of kid’s sunnies from Frankie Ray; 100% UV protection with shatter proof lens, super cool, and suitable for the 4-14 set, you’ll be wishing you had a pair!

In the decor section are the most delightful large counting cards from Eeeboo. Simply beautiful!

If you’re looking for a gorgeous gift for a newborn you cannot go past Dwell Studio’s mind blocks. Tactile, visually stimulating and clever these are relevant from birth up until 2+ years.

Finally, as we’re heading into the out-and-about season, you’ll want to be prepared. Pick up a Dinky Diner, and you’ll be able to safely contain your little charge wherever you go – no more contending with icky highchairs in restaurants, or missing out on one altogether. The Dinky Diner folds up and fits right in your handbag. Neat!

In the picks below I’ve specified the sizes each product is in available in. If you’re browsing in general, I recommend that you use Baby’s Got Style like this:  select the ‘Babies’ tab for sizes 00000-2, The ‘Kids’ tab for sizes 3-8 , and the ‘Mum’s tab for Mums and Mums-to-be.

Also, don’t forget to check out the Sale items in each category. There are over 300 items on sale up to 50% off. Go to it!
