Teenie Bikini with a model that might look familiar....

It's here! My beautiful and talented friend Claudia Chabo has finally launched her kids swimwear range - Teenie Bikini - and it is just divine! Having worked in the industry for over 20 years, Claudia has two other labels in her portfolio, ccjuis (swimwear & streetwear) & Pink Bandit (intimates/lingerie). Claudia was a finalist on Project Runway Australia Season 2 and she is a very dear friend of mine.
Her little girls swimwear is age appropriate and on trend, and she has made them with the same fashionable appeal as her women's line, so they stand out from other bikinis on the market for this age demographic. My favourite bikini is the ruffle bound fixed triangle - seen above in the natural colourway with the umbrella prop. It has a very unique crossover strap which holds the little triangle in place, avoiding wardrobe malfunctions that I hate to see on little girls at the beach. It is discreet and tasteful and the colour choices available are beautiful - the photos don't do them any justice.
And my extra special reason for posting this entry - besides the fact the swimwear is awesome!.....my little Gigi is the beautiful little model - hasn't she done a great job!

Gwen, What You Waiting For? Bring your Harajuku Mini line to Australia - pretty, pretty please!

Love, Love, Love Gwen Stefani - her quirky style is perfectly suited for a mini princess collection so we are very excited she is launching a new fashion line in the US aimed at her littlest of fans - Harajuku Mini collection for Target, launching in November. Hey Gwen, don't forget your Australian fans.....please bring your collection down under - it will go B-A-N-A-N-A-S!!

Another gorgeous embroidered number - Violet Maye Grohl in BabyGap

Here is another gorgeous embroidered tunic (we blogged about Suri's Bonpoint dress earlier) - rockspring Violet Maye Grohl, seen here on a playdate with daddy, musician Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters, complete with painted face, is wearing the BabyGap Embroidered Tunic in white (it is also available in a lovely light camel colour with light blue stitching). This would look cute with a red skivvy & leggings/tights with boots for winter, what do you think?
