Anna Nook – Old Fashioned Beauty in a Girl’s Dress.

When I saw the Anna Nook dresses, I was a little bit blown away. Here, at last, was the old-fashioned loveliness it is increasingly hard to find for my daughter. So when I had the chance for Pink to own one of her own – well naturally, how could I refuse. The idea is simple – there is but one style of dress (they call it the Nanook) which is a simple and classic pinafore. They’re made in a gorgeous Noil Silk –...

Spotted! Sunshine Yellow Sandals. I WANT!

I. Need. These. Imagine a small pair of giggling feet flashing past you, encased in these. Just… *happy* Spotted over on Little Stomper, they’re by Livie & Luca so you know they’ll be perfectly designed for small delicate feet. ‘Petal’ in pretty patent leather is Livie & Luca’s all-purpose spring and summer sandal, and we can see them as at home at the park with a pair of shorts as with a...

Spotted! Rocket Boy vintage-look shirt. SO great.

It can be so tricky to find boys clothes which are as exciting and fun as the huge girls ranges – so when a lovely Twitterer (thank you @NCooperAbs )pointed me to Wild Things Dresses Etsy shop I was pleased to see some truly beeyootiful dresses – but may have actually squeaked aloud when I saw some of the boys shirts. Would you just LOOK at this little thing of beauty! Isn’t it brilliantly awesome? Look at those boys...

Spotted! Beautifully Sunny Cornish Blue Sailing Dress

Isn’t this just a peach of a summer dress? It had me at the bunting, if I’m honest, but that sweet little tug boat is adorable, the shape is uber-practical for active girls on the go – and being made by Frugi it is naturally of the highest organic quality to boot. Just lovely. The Lucy Cornish Blue Dress was spotted over on Bumblebee Kids, comes in a brilliant range of sizes from birth-6yrs, and can be modelled by  a...

Spotted! Favourite dolls house. Ever. Brinca Dada’s Bennet House

The problem I have with dollshouse is that they’re consistently a bit… twee. Old-fashioned is all well and good in these vintage-lovin’ times, but sometimes a material girl wants a material world to play in. So I may have squeaked and ooh-ed* a little when I came across this beeyootiful contemporary dollshouse by Brinca Dada. Yes it’s not cheap – but just take a look at that...
