It’s sale time at Design Child – www.designchild.com.au – and smart buyers will be flocking over to load up their shopping carts with all sorts of delightful and discounted goodies, ready to tuck them away for next summer or restock their kids’ wardrobes for the remainder of this one.  The sale racks are overflowing, so follow me and I’ll guide you through some of the very best bargains to be bagged!

First of all, have a look at how much Oobi can be found in the Sale Section. The Oobi Ava Hat in Apple print is utterly adorable, and can be worn for all-important sun protection year-round, and have you seen the incredible Rusulka Tulle Dresses, such as this one in scarlet? For boys I love the classic Bert tees, especially this one in black & green.  It will look just as cute layered over a long-sleeve tee in winter as it would worn with shorts in summer.

There’s plenty more in the Sale Section besides Oobi, such as a great selection of Purebaby and Purebaby KIDS. The Fabrik Island Dress is hard to go past, as are the Walnut Ballet Flats in Bright Stripes. With winter approaching I love the Purebaby Navy Stripe Jumper for its classic simplicity – plus Purebaby clothes are always so snuggly.

You can take an *extra 15% off sale items* until midnight 7 February 2012, just enter the code TAKE15KSF in the coupon field at checkout!  Plus there’s a bonus offer: For every $50 spent on Oobi products, you’ll receive a $5 Oobi Dollar voucher to redeem between 1 March – 30 April 2012.  In other words, spend $50 on Oobi and receive a $5 Oobi Dollar Voucher, spend $100 on Oobi products and receive a $10 Oobi Dollar voucher and so on.  You’ll need to enter the code OOBI$ in the comments field at checkout by midnight 7 February 2012 to redeem this offer.

Special note – please note orders won’t be shipped until Monday 4 February 2012.

Summer fashion is the most gorgeous of all fashion in my opinion. It’s relaxed and effortlessly cool, oozing warmth and good vibes and freezing out the chill of winter. Today, the promise of summer brings forth a spring in our steps and an array of inspiring new fashion at Cornflowerblue – www.cornflowerblue.com

The are some new players to Cornflowerblue including Little Chillies, Boohoo?, One Sunday and Urban Elk. A must mention is the Boohoo? Lily Playsuit as it is just divine and really captures the essence of playful summer days. The perfect mix of vintage florals and pastels in the Little Chillies Magnolia Onesie and Party Dress has also stolen my heart. Be sure to also have a peek at the stunning range from La Queue Du Chat, this beautiful French label never fails to impress with their quality, classic styling.

If you are looking to up the glam factor for that special event then check out Paper Wings and their fabulously on-trend Desert Rose Sateen Maxi Dress. Little Wings has the equally cool Glitter Skirt and Go Gently Baby relaxes into summer with some stylishly simple designs including the Harem Pant in Slate. For boys I think that you cannot go past the new season looks from Chalk n Cheese, and the navy looks from Gaia really celebrate the nautical theme that is so hot right now.

Nothing makes a super busy (and super exhausted) mum breathe a sigh of relief like a banner exclaiming “Mega Sale”. After a morning involving three tantrums from three of my children at three different times of the day I *need* some retail therapy. I cannot think of a better way to relax than to grab a coffee, put my feet up, and do a little online browsing. I feel even more relaxed when the damage to my credit card is minimal because of the Cornflowerblue - www.cornflowerblue.com.au amazing mega sale.

Every time I visit Cornflowerblue – www.cornflowerblue.com.au I feel a strong nostalgia for the summers of my childhood.  Across this ethically produced and environmentally friendly 100% organic range there are pieces just perfect for rolling down hills or somersaulting across paddocks in. There are items perfect for paddling in the tide at the beach and searching for yabbies in the dam (make sure that mum and dad are watching). And pieces just right for Christmas dinner or the annual trip to candles by candlelight. There is something perfect for each and every summer occasion in store.

I work full-time, so sometimes sourcing a complete outfit from shoes, to hair accessories, to the little bit extras (like bracelets) can be quite a daunting task. It can take many weeks of searching to find items that complement each other, eating into the small pockets of family time I have. I just *love* how the girls at Cornflowerblue have organised their categories. If I click into the girls summer styles, for instance, they have created 37 different looks to choose from including my favourites tropical, teatime and divine. Each look incorporates the clothing, accessories and even shoes, providing an overview of the complete look (and saving me so much time!). Boys and babies don’t miss out either, with 20 summer styles for boys and over 40 summer styles for baby’s.

Gosh I love spring! It’s the perfect time for new beginnings, a new wardrobe and an opportunity to take some time out and smell all the gorgeous flowers blooming in the garden. Chicks hatch from their eggs, the lizards start climbing out from the dark to rest on the rockery and the kidlets are finally released into the back yard to giggle, jump and tiptoe through the daisies. Oh yes, Springtime is glorious.

CornflowerBlue – www.cornflowerblue.com.au- has blossomed this spring with a whole new look and a wardrobe full of glorious organic, eco and ethical kids wear from Gaia, Green Eyed Monster, Purebaby, Fabrik, Ramalama and Monte and Tex ripe for the picking. With a streamlined shopping cart added, and bigger, crisper pictures, the rejuvenation makes shopping easier. You can even shop via specialist categories such as organic, fair, handmade and Australian Made.

As an 80s child myself, I have my eye on the Well Spotted Force Tee as Star Wars always makes me nostalgic and Master R has just taken a shinning to ol’ Luke Skywalker. Also in my sights is the Green Eyed Monster Chopper T-shirt because I always wanted a bike like that and I’m sure Master R will grin. For practicality, the Gaia BMIX Hoodie is lightweight enough for Spring but sure to keep the breeze at bay.

Of course, at CFB Miss N doesn’t miss out with so many choices. My first season picking is the Ramalama Pocket Dress as it’s perfect for holding her lippy (clear gloss – she doesn’t know the difference and a few coins) and the Green Eyed Monster Girls Shorts in denim.

Widen your Spring smile with 10% off all of CornflowerBlue’s new season stock especially for KSF readers. Enter discount code ‘KSF_SPRING‘ at check out until 20 September 2010. Also be sure to scope CornflowerBlue’s super Bargain Bin with cheap finds starting at $9.95, and sign up to the fab new clubCFB loyalty program to enjoy great benefits.
