A/W10 Fashion at Little Styles: 10% Discount Offer *3 Days Only* | Save Up to 60% Sale Stock | New Oobi Lands this Friday

Posted: March 8th, 2010

Today’s post written by Miki

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

Now all of us have our own special ‘happy places’, and mine is not only calming and joyful but also open to all of you: it’s none other than Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au.

Little Styles is a happy refuge for me because it’s loaded with over 2,000 beautiful and well designed children’s products from 100+ brands, it’s so easy to navigate, and the site is gorgeous to look at.  Plus right now it has a cache of new winter fashion from some of my most smile-inducing brands: Gaia Organic Cotton, Sooki Baby, Marquise, BIG by Fiona, Minti, Woof!, Bebe, Bonds, Munster, Books To Wear and Purebaby – and this is just the start of the winter stock due to arrive over the next few weeks at Little Styles.

The newest Bebe by Minihaha collections look too good to be true – the adorable Leila for girls (the bubble pinnie at #1 below is going to be one of the biggest hits this season) and Charlie for boys with it’s hip, understated monochrome and beige styling.  Gaia Organic Cotton also deserve a big shout out for their new season gorgeousness – I adore the 100% organic cotton velour footed onesies, and their separates are indispensable in my baby’s wardrobe so I can’t wait to stock up.

New toys and decor items are in from Alimrose starting from only $8.95, see a few of my faves below at #5; and pre-orders are now being taken for the hugely popular Vulli Treehouse.  So many of us either owned and loved, or desperately wanted (me!) one of these during their own childhoods that they’re simply flying off the shelves in Australia and supply can’t keep up with demand.  So pre-order your’s – ahem, your child’s – one now to make sure you don’t both miss out!  Email Terri to place your order.

The biggest, hugest, most exciting arrival of the season is of course going to be Oobi, and I can now announce that Little Styles will be stocking the *entire* Oobi A/W10 range!  It’ll launch on Friday 12 March, and Little Styles newsletter subscribers will get the first chance to snap up their favourite pieces. You have been warned so sign up now if you haven’t already; put your email addy in the subscribe box on the Little Styles hompeage. You can see a KSF exclusive preview of the to-die-for Oobi AW10 range here.

Little Styles Gear Up For Winter: New Arrivals Galore, Up to 60% off Summer Sale Stock + 10% off Store-Wide*

Posted: February 8th, 2010

Today’s post written by Miki

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

If you’re looking for a party, I can tell you that it’s happening right now over at Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au.  Every time I visit the store – which is often, it’s a favourite! – something exciting is going on, and there’s always something new for me to fall in love with.

Take right now for example: Winter stock is beginning to arrive, and that always gets me excited – I love winter fashion.  I’m really impressed by Bonds this season; what used to be a good-but-basic brand has really come into its own in recent seasons’ collections and the current Bonds range is hip and happenin’.  Funky prints, great colourways and incredibly comfy fabrics make it a winner in every way, but when buying just remember to go up a size as Bonds gear is traditionally on the small side.

Also new at Little Styles is the iconic Sophie the Giraffe, or Sophie la Girafe as she’s known in her native France.  We have a Sophie in our household and she’s just gorgeous – lovely soft 100% natural rubber, her sweet smile and her happy squeak make her incredibly popular with me and my five month old.  If I’m going out and need something to entertain him, Sophie is the first thing I throw in the nappy bag. Little Styles also stock Sophie’s friends, the Chan Pie Gnon chew toys.  Too cute!

Yet more new arrivals include Skip Hop’s Zoo Packs, the fabulous and colourful Lifefactory WeeGo glass bottles, new Tiger Tribe (see below for TT soft toys, adorable), new Sparkle T, new Alex bath toys, new Hess-Spielzeug baby toys, and loads of top ups of styles that sold out over Christmas.  Terri and her team sure have been busy!

The Little Styles huge summer fashion sale is in full swing, with up to 60% off on top brands, including Oobi, Sooki Baby, Bonds, Big By Fiona, Gaia and Purebaby.  And speaking of discounts, you’ll want to take note of this:  Terri is giving KidStyleFile readers 10% off store-wide, including sale stock, *on all orders $65 (before postage is added).  This offer ends aat midnight 12 February 2010.  Enter the discount code ‘febfun‘ at checkout to redeem. Enjoy!

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

The name might be Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au – but believe me when I say that there is nothing little about this end of summer sale. With big discounts on many top brands, including prices slashed by up to 60%, this sale is HUGE and it’s happening right now!

Just about all summer fashion has been discounted by 20%-35%, including BIG by Fiona, Purebaby, Bebe by Minihaha, Sooki Baby, Bonds, Tiny Tribe, Gaia Organic Cotton, Three Little Trees and Minti, and Oobi Baby & Kids is included too…and now that I’ve let you in on that little secret, I just know it’s going to fly out the door, so get yours before it’s all gone!

For those of us getting ready for the new school, pre-school or kinder year there’s a fantastic array of bags, backpacks, lunch boxes and drink bottles from BobbleArt, Rush, Alex & Charli and Tiger Tribe which are guaranteed to get the kids excited and off to school in style.  Whether your kid’s personal taste runs to penguins, cupcakes, bats, bunnies, cars & trucks or japanese dolls (and that’s only a start), you will find something perfect here.

Little Styles has a huge 2010 planned with new labels, an even greater product range (they already have over 1,800 products from around 90 brands!) and exciting competitions and giveaways.  They’re already getting off to a flying start with new arrivals from Bonds including the gorgeous Lil’ Wonder leggings and tees, and the new Roomies range which are predicted to be the next big thing.  I’m a big fan of Bonds and my kids have loads of their gear, but remember that the sizing is on the small side so always buy a size up from normal.

For one week only, KSF readers can take a further 10% off store-wide, which means you can get up to 70% off hot summer fashion and up to 45% off current season styles  The code to enter at checkout is ’sale’ and it expires at midnight on Sunday 11th January 2010.  Plus as always, take advantage of Little Styles’ next day delivery and flat rate postage – FREE over $150!

Under Our Tree: Edwina’s Christmas List

Posted: December 4th, 2009

Today’s post written by Edwina

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

Christmas time at our place is all about the boys. We have 3 gorgeous sons aged 8, 6 and nearly 3, so I am always on the look out for stimulating and fun toys that they will love and I will enjoy looking at.

In an effort to get organised I have been cruising the net looking for cool things to cross off the list.

My ‘nearly 3′ seems to be getting more and more active every day so first thing on my list for him is the truly unique Bilibo. Requiring no batteries and no instructions this is an open-ended toy designed to stimulate the imagination and improve motor skills (read Angela’s review of the Bilibo here).

Also on the list is the Oobi Hopper, perfect for bouncing out all the excess energy after lunch, some Pirates for the bath tub, and because he is currently in love with Spot the Dog, a few new Spot books for bedtime.

Mister 6 seems to be easiest to buy for this time, he loves indoor games and is a natural at making his own imaginary games with toys and Lego. This year I have a theme going on and it is all about Knights, Castles, Legends and Chivalry. Hopefully he will enjoy playing in these worlds and maybe one day he will grow up to be a knight in shining armour himself! My favourite finds are this castle these dragon stencils and knights stickers, and these Schleich knight figurines.

My 8 year old is definitely an outdoor kid – he loves sports – and is very into science: he is currently planning to be an ‘insect scientist’ and have his own ‘insect room’ in his future imaginary mansion.

I was recently chatting to a friend who is a Steiner teacher and she was telling me that at around age 8 they start to teach children construction and building things, which helps them gain confidence in their ability to become more independent. With this in mind I am heading off to the hardware store to pick up a tool box with some real tools and everything he needs to build a billy-cart or a box.

Also for my eldest son is this cute Dumpling Dynasty Explorer Kit, and “Blast Lab” Why Don’t Insects Get Fat?‘ – sure to be a winner based on the title alone -  a fact-book-with-insects written by Richard ‘Hamster’ Hammond from Top Gear Fame.

For my gratification our tree will this year be adorned with some new handmade and fair trade Christmas decorations from Lark, and under it will sit some cool vintage inspired Santa Sack from Cocoon Couture to hold all the loot. And because I’m a kid at heart, I’ve selected Eloise: the Ultimate Edition book just for me. Can’t wait to tear it open on the big day…

1. Oobi Hopper, Paperartzi Boutique – $29.95 $28.95
2. Alex Toys’ Pirates in the Tub, Ten Little Indians – $28.95
3. Spot Bakes a Cake, Fishpond Books – $14.99 $13.95
4. Active People Bilibo, Metro Mum – $39.00

6. Le Toy Van, My First Castle, Growing Brains Educational Toys – POA
7. Djeco Dragon Stencils, Where Did You Get That? – $12.95 $10.95

I’ve done nearly all my Christmas shopping now. My parents – check! My inlaws – check! My husband – check! My kids – nope, not yet!  It’s not disorganisation though, it’s strategy: I’ve been waiting for an event just like this one:

Terri at Little Styles has really taken the ball and run with it when it comes to Christmas this year.  She has put together some incredibly helpful ideas, suggestions and categories to make Christmas shopping an absolute breeze.

For example, there’s a very extensive category full of ideas for the perfect Christmas outfit for your little ones.  There’s a wide range of outfits and special occasion pieces in there, ranging from the ultra-adorable Bluebird & Honey Nappy Pant, to pretty Oobi party dresses, to a range of very funky boyswear, plus an awful lot in between.

If you want even more kids kids fashion, you’re in luck: there are piles of new arrivals from Mon*star kids,  Precious Lil Things, Flirty Bird, babykids, Woolly Wugs and Alimrose, plus some absolutely fabulous BIG by Fiona Scanlan – think sparkles, sequins, fairy wings and frothy tulle; just what every party girl needs!

Also in the Christmas-y theme is a category absolutely bursting at the seams with festive goodies, including stylish wall decals from ForWalls, sweet little felt hair accessories from Flirty Bird, Lark & Friends knitted Christmas decorations and onesies from Annabel Trends, among others.  The extremely popular santa sacks from Cocoon Couture are a given, of course, but they’re selling like hotcakes so snap one up while you still can.

If you need more ideas for gifts, there’s a massive new range of toys from great brands like Sparkle T, Tiger Tribe, Deglingos, Dyles soft playbags & books.  There are also new books and party goodies from Paper Eskimo in the ‘books & stationery’ category.  If you’re on a strict budget,  there’s a truly enormous ‘Gifts Under $25′ category – and when I say enormous, I mean over 300 items!!

As always, Little Styles is offering FREE giftwrapping, next day delivery (which is FREE for orders of over $150), and no fuss returns and exchanges.  There are over 90 brands on offer (more than *1,800* products), all of which adds up to make it a very easy and enjoyable place to shop.

KidStyleFile’s Essential Christmas Gift Guide for Kids: Part 1

Posted: November 3rd, 2009

Today’s post written by Angela

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

It’s now November, and with Christmas galloping up fast it’s time to get organised. To help me in my quest I asked some of my favourite online stores what *their* hot picks for kids are, and why. I have thoroughly enjoyed the diverse selection of products that have arrived in my inbox, and I thrilled to be sharing them with you over the next few weeks starting today.

Without further ado, let the savvy Christmas shopping begin!

“This is one of my all time favourite products: a pretty fairy dress in all the colours of the rainbow with jingling bells, a cute little set of attached wings and shirred bodice. Perfect for all Christmas fairies, including my grand-daughter, who’s pictured here”.

- Denise at ChicKids.com.au

Fairy Girls Rainbow Fairy Dress, $32.95 in sizes 2, 4 & 6.

Spacer
“The Djeco 12 cube animal puzzles are sixteen crazy animals – one part of each animal is pictured on each side of each cube. Rotate the cubes to match the heads, bodies and feet to complete the 16 animals.

We have chosen this product as it is great fun for little ones from 2+, blocks can be used to build towers or make the puzzles, and is a great one to take on holidays”.

- Donna at HaggusAndStookles.com.au

Djeco Animal Puzzles, $29.95


Spacer
“My pick for the season are these great interactive play rugs from IVI. It’s a toy that needs no batteries: just pull out your child’s toy farm animals, cars and dolls and enjoy watching them rediscover their creativity and imagination. There are four designs to chose from: Farm Yard, Cars in Traffic, Playing Way and Playing Family”.

- Lesley at TheLittleKidzCloset.com.au

I don’t think Terri at Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au – ever sleeps.  New and fabulous products seem to arrive online at her store every day, although when you stock over 90 top brands I guess that’s only to be expected.  Add to that her FREE giftwrapping, flat rate express delivery and FREE delivery for orders over $150, not to mention running great offers and promotions, and it’s amazing she even has time to breathe!

Speaking of offers…

Yes, you read that right: all orders over $65 will receive a FREE Sigikid rattle valued at $16.95 in either pink or blue – too cute! But, wait, there’s MORE: in addition you can take 10% off store-wide using the code ‘octoberfun’ for five days only! The code runs out on 18 October 2009, and the Sigikid giveaway is only while stocks last, so get in quickly.

Now have a look at the latest gear to arrive instore: loads of new summer fashion has just landed, most notably the eagerly anticipated Oobi Darcy Pettiskirt.  New goodies from Bebe by Minihaha have also arrived, along with Purebaby, Fresh Baked, BIG by Fiona Scanlan, Albetta and Bluebird & Honey… and that’s only scratching the surface.

There are also two new labels instore – Tiny Mammoth and LilSpunk, which I’m really loving this season. I’ve just spent a blissful half hour browsing through all the new arrivals, and my shopping cart is bursting to overflowing!

The sale section is another happy half hour of browsing – Terri has discounted prices even further from many of our favourite labels, including Books To Wear, Tiny Tribe, Bebe, Marquise, Purebaby and a LOT more.  There are some genuinely spectacular discounts in here.

There’s also a brand new Christmas section, which is going to be added to over the next little while so it’s definitely one to keep an eye on. I have it on good authority that there’ll be lots of new toys, decor and gifts appearing in here shortly – can’t wait for that, I heart all things Christmas xx

Little Styles, BIG Impact: New Season’s Oobi, Bebe, Woof!, Minti, Marquise, Bonds + more – 10% off Store-wide for 4 Days only for KSF readers

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

It’s my first day back after a few weeks of maternity leave (did you miss me? ‘course you did :-P ) and my first stop back just had to be the fantastic Little Styles – www.littlestyles.com.au.

This incredibly stylish boutique is a firm favourite of mine because of their stunning, easy-to-use site and the divine range of brands they stock.  We’re talking Oobi, Bebe, Woof!, Minti, Marquise, Bonds and lots, LOTS more.  It’s a huge range and has to be seen to be believed!

The new spring arrivals at Little Styles are just stunning.  All the bright, fresh colours, the classic cuts teamed with fun retro prints – I’m looking at you, Oobi! – and pretty florals, and crisp stripes… oooh, I’m just drooling looking at it all!

It’s very, very hard to narrow it down to show you some of my picks, but I do think it’s hard to ignore the adorable Bluebird & Honey pinafore dresses in bold new springtime colours.  These dresses are absolute perfection when it comes to fashion for little girls; they’re sweet and innocent, while still being playful and practical.

I’m also really loving the graphic tees and bodysuits from iconic Kiwi brand Minti.  In their 10th season now, this ‘too cool for pre-school’ brand never fails to impress me.  The ‘Bubble Bear’ tee pictured below is my pick of their current collection, and mums of girls will be glad to know that it also comes in pink.

Terri at Little Styles is kicking up her heels with all the newly arrived beauty and you can too with a store-wide 10% discount at Little Styles for four days only. Finishing at midnight on the 19 September 2009, the code you need to entr at checkout is, appropriately enough, ’springfun’. Spring into Little Styles and get shopping!
