A funky new store for you to explore today, in the form of Cheeky Little Monsters – www.cheekylittlemonsters.com.au.

Cheeky Little Monsters specialises in edgy street-wear, cool and comfy beach-wear, shoes, and accessories for kids 6 and under.

Cheeky Little Monsters is still fresh-born, so there’s still some filling out of the site to happen, but I have some news to share that I know you’ll want before the man in the red suit comes: Cheeky Little Monsters have brought lauded street-wear label Appaman to Australia!

Named for the childhood corduroy monkey pal of Norwegian designer Harald Husum, who now lives in Brooklyn, NYC, Appaman is a fusion of Scandinavian sensibility and Amercian pop-culture

Fave of A-list celeb moms Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie, and Liv Tyler, to name but a few, Appaman has serious street cred. You can’t buy it online anywhere else in Australia, so dive in here!

I am also loving the new For Walls ‘Dino-Boo’ wall decals, Lil Fraser wraps and blankies, Itch Design tees, Cocoon Clothing beachwear, and extensive range of Beautiful Soles pre-walker shoes over at Cheeky Little Monsters. There’s still lots more to come at Cheeky Little Monsters: keep your eyes peeled for Zephire Generation, and Eternal Creation coming soon.

To wish you a *very* Merry Christmas, Sally at Cheeky Little Monsters is giving you FREE postage Australia-wide with purchases of two or more items until 12 January 2009.

My picks of the day below – enjoy!

1. Appaman Long Sleeved ‘Flames’ Sweat $59.95
2. Appaman ‘Firefly’ Onesie $34.95
3. Appaman ‘Bulldog’ Tee $39.95
4. For Walls ‘Dino-Boo’ Wall decal $24.95

Now that the weather is finally heating up, it’s time to make the most of the sunshine: here’s my rundown on the coolest picks for summer swimwear. No daggy coveralls here! Each piece has passed the cute-and-cool test, presents great value for money and most importantly, will keep precious little skin protected in the scorching summer sun (and always remember to slip, slop, slap!)

Tkxi Surf do funky, yet understated,  prints in practical as well as downright cool styles. For boys I’m loving the Bones Board Shorts ($45, sizes 0-7) and Bats Rashie ($55, sizes 2-8), plus a great alternative to Speedo-style: the Euroleg pants ($33 sizes 0-8).

Girls can choose from cute one- or two-pieces, rashies and sets, and the chic colour combos and pretty prints make it darn hard to choose! My picks include the *cute-as* Ladybird One Piece ($55), the gorgeously bright printed Wonderland One Piece ($49, sizes 2-5) and for a touch of glam, the right on-trend Disco Fairy Frill Two-Piece ($50, 0-8).

Baby’s Got Style stock Seafolly and Tiger Joe by Seafolly – classic Aussie style, in little people sizes! Possibly the coolest set I’ve seen for boys is the Camo Set ($54.95, sizes 1-7) and little boys will just love the GI Joe Truck Slime Rashie (the name says it all, really! $39.95, sizes 0-3). They also do very funky swim hats – try the Slime Camo ($34.95, size 1-3+) to match back with your other cool buys!

Girls can just drip with cuteness in just about any of the beautiful designs by Seafolly – you won’t be able to contain your “OMG!! That is soooo cute!!!”’s when you see your little princess in the Rose Ballerina Tutu tank ($59.95, 0-3) and I am in love with the bright swirly print of the Soda one-piece ($49.95, sizes 2-6).

Bubs are also catered for with the pink Ruffle nappy pant ($34.95, sizes 00-2), and everyone can do sun safety in style with the Swim Hats ($29.95, sizes 0-3+).

Monster Baby know their stuff – with a background combining surfing and fashion, you know you’re onto a winner! From the classic Skulls to the uber cool Xray print in black or white to the hippy-cute Rainbow Love in hot pink  ($45, sizes 00-5)  they’re made in Aus, they stand out from the crowd and trust me, they last through more than just one summer of swimming!

Hugely popular Cuddlefish is available by the bucketload at The Hip Infant. From the genius Buoyancy Suit ($69.95, sizes 2-4) to the sweetest swim shorts ($24.95, sizes 1-4) and thoughtfully designed long ($44.95, sizes 1-4) and short sleeve swim tees ($39.95, sizes 1-4), you can complete a perfectly matched outfit with the UPF50+ Bucket Hats ($29.95)!

One of the biggest swimwear ranges online is at Little Explorers, and if your tot is serious about their style then this is the place to go! The Goldie Tankini ($29.95 on sale, sizes 2-5) is beautifully bright and girly, as is the gorgeous Judy Jetson Tankini ($29.95, sizes 2-6). They also have a great range of protective long sleeve rashies by Loose Boots – girls can go pretty in Pink and boys will love the cool combi print on Blue (both $44.95 on sale, sizes 1-6). I’m also thinking this Major Menace Reversible Rashie ($29.95 on sale, sizes 3-4) would be a big hit with cool little dudes!

For a massive range of girl’s togs, head on over to Where Did You Get That? for the brilliantly priced, mix’n'match range from the USA, Girls 4 Sport.

With heaps of cool boardies, rashies, tops and bottoms, all in SPF50+ material, you can create your own look without breaking the budget! I’m thinking the Leilani Rashguard ($31.95, sizes 2-8) would look increditbly cute with the pink Swim Skort, or if you’re not so much into pink, the Pixie Swim Top ($24.95, sizes 2-8) and matching Swim Shorts ($24.95, sizes 2-8) make for a welcome burst of summery colour!

Finally, if you’d rather choose your own adventure, head on over to Mooo, who can customise a Rashie for you. Choose from 30 unique designs, and 6 colour choice per design. They’re just $39.95 for a short-sleeved Rash top including choice of your design and customisation. Phew! That’s hot!
