Cotton On Kids Summer Launch

Last Friday i was lucky enough to be invited along to preview the Cotton On Kids summer range.
Despite the fact that i don't yet have any little ones myself, its hard not to swoon over how cute all their clothes are! 
Luckily i have a niece & girlfriends with babies to spoil!


We were run through some of the range coming out for Xmas by one of the buyers. 
Some of the inspirations for this range were Babushkas, Sport Luxe & Tropicana!

Here are a few of my favourite pieces coming out in October;
This cool geometric dress (that comes with bloomers underneath)
If this was an adult size, i would be wearing it myself!

Ballerina skirts with graphic prints under the tulle

And this little number which would be the perfect Xmas dress i think!

Now for some things already in store - Heaps of great coloured & printed jeans for summer. 
We were told that the denim is really soft & comfy for the kids & newer styles will be embellished with patches etc  
I loved the dark blues ones below, they look like animal print, but on closer inspection its hearts :)

Two of the cutest little boys outfits - How cool is the orange & blue cardi!


And last but not least my favourite little ruffle bum pants! 
They come in a whole bunch of cool prints & stripes.
I have bought a few of these for my niece & think they are just the cutest thing ever!!

I just love Cotton on Kids - its my go to place for kids gifts.
I really cant think of anywhere else that has such cool designs at such an affordable price....
I need a child to dress!!!!

My local paper {The North Shore Times} ran a story about me & our Mount Kilimanjaro climb today.
I did a 20km hike this morning & came home to find it in my driveway! Nice surprise.

Alaina Bedding by Biscuit

Ok, so we all know about my love of Paris.
I am just dying over this gorgeous Alaina bedding from Biscuit Home; seen here on the bed of the lady it was named after - Alaina of Live Creating Yourself. And how AMAZING is her bed head!!!! Designed by the equally amazing Baily of Peppermint Bliss
Ok I'm going to stop gushing now...a bit sad when sheets get you this excited.....

Black in the Kitchen

Black isn't the obvious choice for a kitchen but I'm seeing it pop up more & more.
It gives a very sophisticated look i think!
