Little Red Hood

This modern take on the Russian babushka dolls is great! Designed by Pistacchi Design it is also a food container set as well. With various sizes of bowls and dishes, the user can use them for cookies or fruit, and avoid bugs when the cap is on. Brilliant!

Evan Rossell + Mini & Maximus

There is always something really fresh and exciting when a clothing company decides to incorporate artists in their collections. There is something so simple yet amazing about being able to wear a piece of art and I think the collaboration between Evan Rossell (Stink) and Mini & Maximus is one of the coolest ones I have come across in a long time! Evan Rossell's art is an eclectic mix of sharp teeth monsters, furry creatures and a whole lot of street cool characters all mixed up in some amazing colour combinations. Combined with M&M's super comfy tees it is a match made to love. I hear more collaborations with this artists are coming up so stay tuned to some more interesting results soon! Until then, check out Evan Rossell's awesome blog Hairy Fools for a good bucket load of inspiration! You can also check out this neat video Hairy Days made by Austin Green featuring Evan.

Moments | Sunny Saturday

Just a few snaps from today's lazy Saturday. Managed to get ourselves a tiny sleep in, but of course it ended in both kids in our bed having a full on pillow fight. Gaah, nothing that gets you out of bed quicker than a heavy toddler stomping on your head. After a rather massive breakfast we ran it off on a great wooden playground in our area. We then drove down to a favorite hang out which have a pizzeria restaurant attached to a fenced in playground. A win win situation for both parents and kids :) Hope you are enjoying your weekend out there!

Look Book Gallore

Yep, those Amsterdam people know a thing a two about doing nice collection look books, especially the creative brand Scotch & Soda who's mini version labels Scotch & Shrunk (boys) and Scotch R' Belle (girls). I love their photo session and they always seem to find the coolest little models around to give some spirit to their detailed clothes. Soon you will be able to shop boys and girls collection from their own webshop, but until then you can find a pretty nice selection over at Oii barnkläder.

Moments | Drip Drop

We have been spoiled with wonderful sunny weather all week so it was no surprise when we woke up around 7 am with the sound of rumbling thunder and rain drops against the windows. The rain has to come sometime and it just happened to be today. I rugged up D with an extra layer and on went the gumboots. It was a new record. 5 min and then soaking wet pants! The giggles that came out of him made it all worth it though. I think one of his first words were actually splash, so I know this little guy loves it. I can't believe how beautiful the trees are getting. It is an firework of yellow, red and orange and the occasional green. I hope you all will have a lovely weekend and get to enjoy some nice weather, what ever it might be...

KIDS CASE | Brand Watch

I have very nostalgic memories of this label. First time I came across it was a rainy day in Copenhagen, Denmark and I ran into this lovely children's shop called Englebørn to get away from the rain (I know..how good is it not to spend a 30 minutes in a kids shop blaming it on the rain!) I loved this shop. There were so many nice little labels with colourful clothes and the atmosphere in there was the best. One of the labels I found was of course Kids Case. The quality struck me as amazing and the colour schemes were so gorgeous. I saw a jumpsuit in red and white and one in petrol and grey. I had such a hard time choosing which one to get for my then 5 month old girl (finally picked the red and white). But ever since then I have loved this label for its lovely knits and great designs and cuts. There seem to be something special in each collection that makes me want to buy for all three categories, boys, girls and babies!

Kids Case was founded in 2000 in Amsterdam, The Neatherlands as a small independent company by designer Jacqueline van Nieuwkerk and marketer Merel Verbrugge. Their intention was to design collections that fitted the lifestyle of individualistic and modern parents and their children. Right from the launch their first collection in 2001 became a big success. Today Kids Case are available all over the world, from Amsterdam to London, from Tokyo to New York.

Moments | Thursdays with Mr.D

Gosh, I simply love Thursdays! Before when I thought of Thursdays they were sort of a nothing day with it's only upside it was one day closer to weekend. But these days I am totally loving them. It is the first day I got my little man home from childcare and we are loving the slack days we can just hang out and play together. We love the beach and today was such a magical day. When we got down to the water it was like a big mirror. Totally calm with a bit of a mist on top of it and several black swans floating peacefully. No wind just an overall calm that was amazing. Here are some photos from our day...
