forever young

Is it just me or are kids getting cuter and cuter by the day? I swear I am not clucky (... yet) but I couldn't help posting these shots from the SS/11 Zara Kids campaign. The tiny possum in grey, with the pixie fringe and messy bun, is killing me... x

My friends have babies and they're maniacs. Maniacs I tells you.

SALE NEWS: Dadadadaaaaa! Divine Clothing is having a Halloween sale, all tees US$15.99 with free shipping and Halloween goodies. Most of us don't celebrate Halloween here in Oz, and let me be the first to say that it's a damn weird thing to celebrate.

Prpl Nrpl

Kids. Aren't they great? They eat and spew and burp and fart and crap and snot all the time. But they're just so damn cute and innocent no-one cares. In fact we even think they are all the cuter because of their limited control over what comes out of their assorted orifices. The crew over at Prpl Nrpl have decided to celebrate the bodily functions of little people (amongst other things) with their collection of onesies and tshirts. While this formula generally ends in lame and tacky kids apparel that is best suited to dodgy market stalls, Prpl Nrpl have successfully used clever puns and beautiful design to create this quality collection. And if you think it'd be funny to get around in a "I'll have the boob du jour please" tshirt, they are only available in baby sizes, thank goodness. Tshirt sizes are available for kids up to six, but boob related designs are tastefully omitted.

Threadless Kids

About two or three years ago I thought it would have been a great idea to make really cool kids clothes with great designs that were kid friendly but not too childish. Now it seems there are a bunch of companies doing just that, and Threadless is one of the better ones - some of their designs seem to work even better on kids shirts.

Last week (yes, I'm behind the times) Threadless announced seven (yes seven) new shirts with 3 of them being available in kiddy variations. From top to bottom they are The Young Explorers Society by Brett Weber, There's No Crying In Breakfast by Philip Tseng and Never Take Your Abilities For Granted by Andrew Knapp.

Check out the rest of the winners and adult versions here.

tokidoki onesies

Tokidoki, for the uninitiated, is the artwork and merchandise of one of my favourite illustrators Simone Legno. As if tokidoki's normal human sized stuff wasn't cool enough - there are now rediculously cute products available for tiny sized humans. Adorable.

kids rock out with damselworld

I'm not one for having kids or anything, but some of you people are doing it and who am I to say you're crazy? But if you're going to ignore my sage counsel, you at least have to have cool kids and this is where these kids rock tees from Damselworld come in. They start at US$19.99 which seems a little steep for the kiddies, they don't earn much.
