Gather in close, people, because I have a secret to share.  ShopHouse – www.shophouse.com.au – is having a huge sale, and we at KSF are among the very first to know about it as it isn’t being advertised to the public for another week.

We have the chance to sneak in early and snap up the best of the bargains, and there are some great ones to be had!  Unlike many other sales, there are great levels of stock too, so as long as you’re quick then you’ll probably even find the exact size you’re after.

If you only hit one sale this season, this is the one.  Trust me on this: ShopHouse sales only happen twice a year, but when they do they’re absolutely spectacular. Check it out:

• Oobi Baby & Kids up to 40% off
• OshKosh 45% off – below cost!
• Baobab 30% off
• moppit 40% off
• Bonds 30% off
• Purebaby up to 30% off
• Cuddlefish 40% off
• Snugglebum up to half price!
• En Gry + Sif 30% off
• Baby Bloch Slippers up to 50% off

Yes, you read that list right: genuine article OshKosh is being discontinued at ShopHouse and so all of it is being sold off incredibly cheaply – below cost price!  This is the cheapest you’ll ever see OshKosh, so take advantage of it pronto.

1. Purebaby Growsuit – Sky Blue With Boat Applique, $34.95 $24.95
2. Purebaby Poppy Knitted Dress, $49.95 $32.95

ShopHouse – www.shophouse.com.au – holds a special place in my heart, as it was from this trendy online shop that I bought my dearest Miss N her very first Oobi dress 15 months ago.  From there her collection has increased, with lots of help from Bronwyn and her crew who are always friendly when I ring and query the colours and material of their latest stock (thanks, girls!).

This summer, I have decided to incorporate a little Oobi into Master R’s get-up. I think I’ve settled on the Oobi Baby Yee-Ha! Check Cowboy Shirt. Fantastic dressed up or donned with shorts for the casual look.  The  Moppit Clown Face Tee is unique and funky too. I think that’s a sure shoo-in for a trip to Nan and Pop’s house this Christmas. Teamed with the OshKosh Vintage Hickory Short I think someone’s cheeks will get a work out with all the older relatives squishing them as they rave about “what a cute little boy” he is!

I simply adore the  Oobi Baby Carmen dress and have dressed Miss N in it for our yearly Christmas card photos. The eye popping polka dots on a scarlet backdrop with a stripy tie belt are divine.  The Baby Bloch Baby Ballerina Slipper look like the perfect shoe to go with it too!

Little fashionistas should also take note: ShopHouse is stocking Polka’s limited edition Mini Maxi Dress, the same style that none other than Miss Suri Cruise has been spotted wearing all over Boston, USA, recently. I recommend that you get in quick if you want a piece of this celebrity style, now available for pre-order with delivery in the first week of December.

If you looking for a stunning bracelet for your little Princess’ Christmas present, or perhaps a special gift for someone, then look no further than the Silverado child’s bracelet. They come in a variety of sizes to fit your little one, and have a large selection of silver and glass beads.

What’s more, in the spirit of Christmas giving, Shophouse are giving all KSF readers a silver charm and silver letter charm FREE with any order of the Silverado child’s bracelet. All you need to do is type in the charm you want and the letter in the comment section whilst completing your order. Also, until 30 November 2009, all KSF readers will receive FREE postage on all orders with promo code ‘KSFPOST’. Yay! What are you waiting for?

Dingalingaling!  It’s MEGA SALE time at ShopHouse – www.shophouse.com.au – and this one is a doozy!

Bronwyn has marked down a huge range from Oobi, Purebaby, Oshkosh, mill&mia, Baobab, And The Little Dog Laughed and Huggalugs, with these brands discounted by up to 70%!!!  There’s a massive range of sale items, so you’re going to have to go straight to the sale section at ShopHouse to see for yourself what rich pickings are available. The sale is going to finish at midnight on 21 July 2009 (or earlier if sold out) so tarry not!

The OshKosh section has some of the best discounts, so make sure you browse through it all.  I love the Poochie cardigan & leggings (nos. 4 & 7 below) for little girls, and the Baby George pre-walker shoes for boys.

There’s also some brilliantly priced mill&mia – including some of my favourite pieces at HALF PRICE, people! – which are just begging to be snaffled off the shelves by some savvy buyers. Seriously stylish, mill&mia is one of the best Australian brands on the market and for very good reason. Once you’ve tried the soft stretchiness of their tees once, you’ll never go back.

My personal weakness is Oobi Baby, and other fans (I know there’s a lot of you out there!) will be delighted to know that there’s a huuuuuuge selection of Oobi pieces, all heavily marked down.  The cable knit gear is absolutely gorgeous and well worth stashing away for next winter (of course, there’s plenty of this winter still left to run if you want something to use now), and the retro crochet dresses for girls are incredibly sweet.

I’ve just placed my order – I bought the Oobi stripe hoodie & overalls pictured below at nos. 1 & 2 for my impending arrival, and a pair of heavily discounted Cuddlefish shorts & swim tee for my son who is starting swimming lessons next month.

So what are you going to get? Better be quick!

The sale prices quoted below are good until midnight, 21 July 2009, or while stocks last.

1. Oobi Baby Striped Hoodie Jacket – Red/Blue, $45.95 $29.95
2. Oobi Baby Striped Overalls – Red/Blue, $44.95 $34.95
3. Purebaby Tea Rose Stripe PJ Set, $39.95 $24.95
4. OshKosh Poochie Cardigan, $49.95 $29.97
5. OshKosh Prep Academy Dress Shirt, $59.95 $35.97
6. Baobab Chocolate Racer Bodysuit, $35.95 $25.95
7. OshKosh Poochie Deep Pink Leggings, $24.95 $14.97

I have no idea where to begin today.  I’m reeling, I’m speechless, I’m feeling dizzy and faint and I’ll warn you now, I’m going to be writing in lots of italics and capitals today, such is the strength of my feelings.

Why?

Bronwyn at ShopHouse – www.shophouse.com.au – has an offer for us which is so big that I’m willing to bet she’ll be sold out in the fastest time ever.

What is this spectactular offer?  Get this: every order over $60 entitles you to choose a completely FREE item from the Oobi Baby Animals Range, valued at up to $39.95. That’s right, you read me correctly: FREE Oobi with all orders over $60!!! <*Miki hyperventilates*>

This offer is for one week only, finishing at midnight on 23 June 2009, unless sold out beforehand, and you can bet that it will be, so put the pedal to the metal!

You aren’t limited to any particular brands to spend the $60 on either, anything at ShopHouse qualifies!  All you have to do to qualify is spend your $60 (not incl. shipping) and then in the comments box at checkout tell Bronwyn which piece you want and which size you want it in.  It goes without saying that this is only while stocks last, so believe me, you’ll want to get in FAST.

The Oobi Baby Animals range consists of the following items:

• Lounge Suits (or PJs) in Blue Owl/Pink Owl/Giraffe RRP $39.95 sizes 6mths to 2 yrs
• Rompers in Blue Owl/Pink Owl/Giraffe RRP $29.95 sizes 6mths to 2 yrs
• Hoodies in Blue Owl/Pink Owl/Giraffe RRP $29.95 sizes 6mths to 2 yrs
• Pink Owl Hoodie Dress RRP $34.95 sizes 6mths to 4 yrs (very limited stock)

Have a look at this link to see the full Oobi range at ShopHouse, and see below for a few examples of this gorgeous range:

As if that wasn’t enough, Bronwyn has marked down her entire range of OshKosh by an unprecendented and whopping 40% off – yes, every single piece!  So you could buy a few items of OshKosh so heavily discounted that you’d probably sell it for more after your kids have grown out of it, and as long as you spend over $60 on the order you can also choose a FREE piece of Oobi!

There’s loads more at ShopHouse besides Oobi and OshKosh, and my personal favourite is the enormous range of Cocoon Couture: beanbags, kinder bags, cushions and other decor, it’s all just exquisite.  There are a couple of beanbag designs at 25% off too!

1. OshKosh Oh So Foho Guitar Print Tee, $34.95 $20.97
2. mill&mia Padded Blush Bubble Rabbit, $21.95 $12.95
3. Rosie Flo and Johnny Joe Colouring Books, $15.95ea

7. OshKosh Club Marina Stripe Knit Vest, $42.95 $25.77
8. OshKosh Club Marina Girls Skinny White Jean, $69.95 $41.97
9. OshKosh Aviator Stripe V Neck Jumper, $59.95 $35.97
10. Bod Vanilla Smooch Lip Balm, $12.95 (Mums, get yourself a treat while you’re shopping for the kids)

It’s not every day we come across big discounts on this brand. But guess what?  I can now reveal that Bronwyn at ShopHouse – www.shophouse.com.au – is offering KidStyleFile readers 20% off all OshKosh!

Yep, you read that right: for one week only, every OshKosh order will cost 20% less when you use the code ‘KSFOKB’ (make sure you enter it in capitals else it won’t work) from 12-19 May 2009 – WOO!

OshKosh is a hugely popular brand, and with very good reason – look at their classic styles and great quality and you see kidswear which everyone is guaranteed to love; whether it be the kids who love the playground cred it gives them, or the mums who see the pieces wash up beautifully each time.

The modern yet traditional styles of OshKosh are designed with complementary colours and shapes – it’s a very ‘mix and match’ brand, and all the pieces work back together.  This is another reason Oshkosh is a long-standing fave of Mums everywhere: it’s super-easy to get kids looking stylish when the wardrobe contains a few key OshKosh pieces.

The popularity of Oshkosh means that ShopHouse’s OshKosh will go like hotcakes.  Bronwyn keeps her range of OshKosh at below retail store prices anyway, and this extra 20% off is going to mean that savvy buyers swoop in fast.  Many of the most popular styles only have one or two pieces available in each size, so if you want a piece of the action ou’d better move fast! All orders at ShopHouse over $99 also receive FREE delivery, so what are you waiting for? Zoom!!

The prices below reflect the 20% off KSF reader discount, using the code ‘KSFOKB’. Valid 12-19 May 2009 only.

Golly gosh!  There’s a new brand in store at ShopHouse – www.shophouse.com.au – and it’s a big ‘un:

Let’s give a big KidStyleFile welcome to OshKosh! YAAAAAAAY!!!

ShopHouse is the exclusive online stockist of OshKosh B’Gosh fashion in Australia, and their range of stock includes pre-walker footwear!

Bronwyn at ShopHouse receives new shipments of OshKosh every month, so there are going to be new products to check out all the time.  Spare a thought for Bronwyn and her team and how busy that’ll make them though!  And I should also point out that OshKosh flies out the door, and once products are gone at ShopHouse they’re gone for good – there’s no re-ordering of OshKosh, so if you like something you need to snap it up quickly or lose out.

You should also be aware that OshKosh sizing is on the generous side, so check the sizing charts on each product’s page to be sure you get it right.

And to welcome Osh Kosh to ShopHouse, Bronwyn is giving us KSF readers an exclusive 10% discount on the brand’s entire range!  You need to enter ‘gollygosh’ (lowercase, all one word) at checkout to get your discount.  The end date for this one is 31 March 2009.

Also in store, you’ll all be excited to hear, is the full and complete Winter 2009 range from Oobi Baby & Kids! I am head over heels in love with the Chocolate Fuzzy Little Bear Jacket which is just too cute for words, and I’m currently trying to decide which of the new season Little Bear beanies to buy.  I challenge anyone not to fall in love with at least one piece from the Oobi collection.

Don’t forget to take 10% off the prices shown below by using the code ‘gollygosh’ at checkout before 31 March 09.

1. OshKosh Highlander Satine Puffer Vest, $69.95
2. OshKosh Highlander Knit Cap, $24.95

ShopHouse post within Australia for an unbeatable $4.95 Express Post no matter the weight, and all orders over $80 are shipped for FREE!

My kids need new shoes.

The rate at which this event occurs is quite phenomenal. Their tiny baby-paws have transformed, seemingly overnight, into surfboard-length big-girl feet.

I’ve got to say that I’d rather go to the park with my kids than go shopping. They have only ever been present at one shoe shopping event, in which we came away with gumboots 2 sizes too big ‘cos they loved them so much

Needless to say, whenever I need anything for my kids (or anything at all!) I turn to the interweb.

The most recent news to hand on the shoe front is that Betts Kids – www.bettskids.com.au, as of only a few weeks ago, are now selling shoes for kids from infancy to teens online.

Betts Kids have everything from pre-walkers to casual shoes to dress shoes, sports shoes, slippers and gumboots. Brands available include Skechers, Keds, Osh Kosh, Airflex, Dakota, Patrick, and their own Betts Kids label.

They’re all presented to perfection on their beautifully designed and easy to use site. The site is a joy to behold: it is very clear on what colours and sizes are available, and there are multiple views of shoes so you can really see what you’re buying.

To celebrate their launch, Betts Kids are giving you FREE postage when you purchase shoes to the value of $69.95 or more until 8 June.

To give you extra confidence to buy, Betts Kids are also offering free returns or exchange until 8 June too. If you are concerned about ordering the wrong size you can buy both sizes and return the incorrect size (for free!), and have your credit card refunded for the returned pair – nice move, Betts Kids! Read the low-down on these offers here.

In addition to this great offer, Betts Kids also have a great competition running until May 30: Tell them the stickiest situation you’ve found yourself in, and go into the draw to win 1 of 5 Little Chipipi Wall Sticker sets.

These wall stickers are great quality, and are easily removable and repositionable. What’s more they are Australian designed, owned and made. (Read about Sam, designer of Little Chipipi here). No purchase is necessary to enter, and you’ve got to be in it to win it, so give it a whirl!

Ok, here are my hot picks to kick things off for you. Enjoy!

Note that I’ve just covered casual shoes here, because that’s my pace, but there are heaps and heaps of dress, sports, etc. going on, so if that’s what you need you’re well covered. Also there are quite a few mark-downs on the site, so have a browse, and happy shopping!
