Where Did You Get That? Ask no more: it’s right here! 10% off store-wide for KSF readers

Posted: July 3rd, 2008

Do you, like me, often see baby and kids goods that you find so irresistibly attractive that you find yourself asking total strangers “Where did you get that?”

Well today I’d like to introduce you to style-savvy sisters Toni and Melony, who through their passion for everything unique and high quality in the realm of baby and kids, can help connect you with all the coolest threads, shoes, toys, accessories and decor from both faraway and nearby via their new web store ‘Where Did You Get That?‘ - www.wheredidyougetthat.com.au.

Where Did You Get That? stock exquisite brands including Aden + Anais, BabyMoov Bebedelice and Lovenest, Bella Tunno, Bod and Bod for Bubs hair and skin-care, Coco Boheme, Coo Clocks, Deglingos, Djeco, eco.kid, Lelli Kelly, Moppit, Morgan & Milo, Opal London, Pink + Blue Yummy Mummy, Star & Rose, Tea Collection, Tommy Rocket, Two Belles, Zid Zid Kids.

I want to have a little rave about a few of my personal favourites new to Australia, and brought to you exclusively by Where Did You Get That? Firstly, Tea Collection, a US brand that promotes a multi-cultural ethos in design and celebrates children as “little citizens of the world”.

Before Where Did You Get That? came along I always sourced Tea Collection from the US. Needless to say, I am so thrilled to have a local supplier!

Tea Collection make two affordable ranges: Tea Collection for kids 2+ and Daily Tea for 0-2 years.

I can tell you from personal experience that the quality of Tea Collection is just superb. The cottons they use never pill or fade, and the cuts are tailored beautifully.

Their jeans are the best fit I have found (adjustable waist joy!), and the denim is softened to prevent chafing.

The dresses are thoughtfully designed, and always feature beautiful detailing. To prove that I put my money where my mouth is, see the picture below of one of my daughters wearing one of her Tea Collection pieces: the Journey Dress, happily available at Where Did You Get That? so you can get a piece of the action too :)

wdygt-clothes.jpg

Clockwise from top left:

Tea Collection Mendoza Boys 3 piece outfit - $155.00
Daily Tea Flower Fan Tunic - Limon - $29.95
Tea Collection Mopti Print Dress - Birch - $84.95
Tea Collection Journey Dress in Aubergine - $56.00
Tea Collection Tereli Yarn Dyed Indigo Pant - $64.95

Next on my list of faves is Morgan & Milo. An inspired addition to the world of children’s footwear, Morgan & Milo is the creative output of Mia Abbruzzese, who started Morgan & Milo to fill the gap for affordable, classic shoes. Morgan & Milo shoes have their heart in the quality of the past, and their head in the modern day, fusing fun and fashion in a way that is infinitely wearable, and never too precious.

Also in the shoe department at Where Did You Get That? is the unrestrained embellished decadence of Lelli Kelly from Italy. Not just a pretty face, Lelli Kelly shoes are designed for optimal comfort and foot health.

wdygt-shoes.jpg

Clockwise from top left:

Morgan & Milo Navy Flame Slip-on - $44.95
Morgan & Milo Silver Sparkle Mary-Jane - $49.95
Lelli Kelly Iris Cross Mild - $105.00

Finally, you know I can never go past a good toy or decor piece. Where Did You Get That? is thrilling me with its well considered selection.

Firstly, Djeco from France. Djeco make a wonderful range of toys, puzzles and craft sets for kids, and Where Did You Get That? is stocking a comprehensive amount of them.

I just adore the Stamps Magical Dresses set which features ink pads, 14 stampers and 20 cutout princesses to decorate.

If you’re looking for amusement for smaller kids then the Djeco block puzzles make for a sweet occupation with their classic illustrations. Where Did You Get That? is selling the 4 packs so affordably too!

If you’re looking for an imaginative and unusual buddy for your little one then the divine Deglingos, again from France, fit the bill perfectly. Everything but run of the mill, Deglingos creatures are constructed of a range of high quality textured fabric that is sure to last a lifetime of companionship,

A delightful decor element is the Coo Clock from the USA. Besides being utterly whimsical this clock is clever too: it has a sensor that detects when it’s dark so it won’t bark, cheep or moo at midnight!

For out and about check out the Bella Tunno Designer Diner. It’s a funky, wipe-clean placement on one side and a reusable chalk mat on the other. It’s a portable imagination station for little artists and a traveling table for little eaters! Includes a 12 piece box of non-toxic colored chalk and a detachable chalk pouch. Never be stuck for entertainment when you’re out and about again!

Finally, one of my most beloved favourite brands, Zid Zid Kids.

Zid Zid Kids are pure imagination realised. Zid Zid Kids is a fair-trade company based in Marrakech, Morocco, and is the fusion of the creativity of husband and wife team Moulay and Julie, and Moroccan crafts-people. The result is stunning!

Where Did You Get That? is stocking bags, belts, shoes and these fabulous dress-up masks from Zid Zid. Bring the magic of Africa into your home!
wdygt-toys.jpg

Djeco Stamps Magical Dresses - $33.00

I love the Tip Toey Joey shoes.

Genius! And they are so CUTE!

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!

Great Gear For Groovy Guys - A Boys Only Adventure: Part 2

Posted: May 10th, 2008

Welcome to the weekend! Today we have for you Part 2 of Miki’s ‘Boys Only Adventure’ (you can read Part 1 here). Today’s piece looks at what’s out there and hot for little men 3-7 years, and boy- oh-boy does Mik have a bounty of gorgeous finds for you to enjoy! Without further ado, let’s jump on in!

.…………………………………………………………………………………………………….

I have had so much fun this week prowling through gear for boys aged three to seven. There’s so much cool stuff! Have a look at the goodies I found:

Buckets & Spades
I just have to kick off with Buckets and Spades www.bucketsandspades.com.au.

Do you know, at the time of writing they have twenty-six pages of summer specials? And that doesn’t even include specials on their winter gear or shoes!

A lot of it is for girls, but there are some real gems in there for the guys, mostly at 40% off or more so you’ll be rewarded for sifting through. I’m talking about brands like Gant, Diesel, Guess, Fred Bare… the list goes on and I don’t have room to do them all justice, so you’ll just have to go and look for yourself. I’ve pulled out a couple of items to show you, but I’m barely scratching the surface!

And don’t forget that you can take a further 10% off the already amazing marked prices by using the discount code featured in this month’s My Child magazine!

Buckets & Spades images

No links here as Buckets & Spades is a frames-based website, so use the search function at the top right of the screen. Guess Sunset Beach Tee, style no. 9114, $49.95 $25.00; Tommy Rocket Insane Cowboy Tee, style no. TR 212, $34.95 $25.00; Fred Bare Summer 07 Shortall, style no. 4408, $71.50 $39.00.

Don’t forget to take another 10% off these prices using the My Child discount code!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………….

La Toriana
I adore the Eternal Creation range at La Toriana www.latoriana.com.au. Not only are the clothes stunning, but the business is family owned, ethically produced, based in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas and committed to improving the lives of local Tibetan and Indian communities - so not only do you get to buy gorgeous clothes at great prices for your son, you get to feel good about it too!

If I was forced to pick just one other item to showcase from La T (which is pretty darn difficult, let me tell you, as it’s all so beautiful), it would have to be the exquisite vintage-inspired Lazybones Sleepwear - just check out the picture of the Bobby Blue PJs below: says it all, really!

You can take another 15% off La T’s fab prices AND get a free gift using the discount code in My Child magazine! Amazing!!

La Toriana images

Eternal Creation three piece set - long-sleeve tee, cord bootlegs and vest, $115.95 (save a packet when buying as a set, pieces also available individually); Eternal Creation Patch Pants, $49.95 $34.05; Lazybones Sleepwear Bobby Blue PJs, $39.95 $29.98.

These sale prices don’t include the My Child discount, so take off another 15%!

www.5littlemonkeys.com.au was a new one on me until just recently. They’ve just revamped their website and it’s lovely, so bright and cheerful and packed with great products and even better deals. They stock a great range of boyswear from Ouch and Wilkie at some spectacular discounts (up to 67% off!). Make sure you browse through both the Boyswear section AND the Clearance Stock section, as there are loads of gems to be found in both.

5 Little Monkeys are also participating in the My Child discount code frenzy - use the code to take another 15% off their fantastic prices!!

Itty Bitty Yuppy
I couldn’t finish this Boys Only special without paying homage to Itty Bitty Yuppy www.ittybittyuppy.com.au!

If you’ve already seen their site then you’ll understand why I love it, and if you haven’t then what are you waiting for? Get over there already!!

Not only do they carry some of the coolest gear for boys around, there are some pretty awesome discounts on a lot of it - who could possibly go past 35% off Australian designers’ new season stock?!

Brands with cool boys gear include Enfant Terrible, Mill and Mia, Moppit, Munster, Wonderboy and many, many more. I’ve shown a very small selection of my favourites below, but they have a huge range so do yourself a favour and have a look at the site.

The 35% off Aussie designers sale ends on May 17, so you have a deadline to work to for snapping up these fantastic deals!

Buckets and Spades run two impressive bricks and mortar stores as well as the online store, so there is a special process for placing orders.

The process will be changing soon, but for now here’s how it goes:

1. Find the products you love, take note of the original RRP on them, then halve it - that’s the new price
2. Collect all the items you love into the shopping cart
3. Submit your order to Buckets and Spades - Don’t forget to mention ‘KidStyleFile0208′ in the comments field so Zlata knows you’re special!
4. Note that no payment is required at this stage
5. After Zlata and her team receive your order they will check stock, and then phone you to arrange payment over the phone.

Buckets and Spades send via Express Post only Australia wide. The charges are: up to 500 g $7.00, and up to 3 k $10.00 for postage.

International orders are warmly welcomed; prices start at AUD$12.00
