Creating a vintage look for kids fashion

Published by Elizabeth under Kids and Fashion

 This week the Bendigo Magazine came out and its the best ever

 Here are some  photo’s taken from the Bendigo Magazine Photo shoot for La Toriana.    La Toriana have a few products showcased and we are thrilled with the shots and images.  Here  The images from the photo shoot for our advert with one of the magazines photographers…  Alison from Lollypop Photography.  There are a couple of my own thrown in here too…. though I am sure you can tell the great ones are hers!

                                             

A little about the children’s designer outfits modelled and showcased. 

**NEW**   La Toriana introduces Constitution to our online baby/children’s boutique.  Constitution is an Australian business and has the most delightful hats for all the whole family.

  These children’s designer hats are vintage inspired head wear from Consititution, and are  amazing.  Super quality, unique style and so adorable for kids.  These  infant hats are not like anything else I have seen about and the amount of comments from the shoot and responses from the photos have been amazing. 

Inspired by all things vintage, these kids hair accessories go well with the designer children’s clothing range available online at La Toriana.

You have to agree Lollypop Photography  images are stunning! 

My favourite of the Constitution designer label is the Vintage Boston Brocade children’s cap and the duckbill peak cap with detachable rosette.  These are  an ideal accessory that goes well with the Tea Princess range of designer dresses for a more classy and elegant look, but looks striking with pants and tops from their collection as well.  These vintage inspired children’s hats are ideal all year round.  Tran seasonal and compliments many different season children’s fashions.  Yep, the accessories are back in vogue, and little ones must be seen with their hats, scarfs, coats, capes and jewellery to complete their designer clothing this Winter.

Skye wears the Tea Princess ivory stretch top by Tea Princess and the beige cord pants.  To compliment the outfit accessories were the beautiful Princess Allure jewellery and Constitution duckbill hat.

One of my favourites is the Tea princess smock dress worn at the very top image  by Emmerson with the Tea Princess leggings.  To complete the outfit Emmy wears the constitution Boston brocade hat and jewellery by Princess Allure.

 

 

Children’s fashion today is quite eclectic.  There are so many styles and looks that there is something to suit everyone.  I am a fan of all things vintage, ”girly” and lacy.  These images capture the very essence I was hoping for.  I told the photographer I was looking for a “vintage style” look for this edition and I think together we pulled it off.   The clothing, the location and photography all worked well together to create this look.   I am very happy with it all.  Check out tomorrow for more of whats “IN”  the mag  as well as some behind the scenes shots.  Thanks so much Alison!

The Bendigo Magazine photo shoot was with some gorgeous models wearing Tea Princess, Constitution, Princess Allure, Bethany’s Child, and Three Little Tree.  I loved the old ruins in the centre of town and was ideal for this shoot.  The rustic, overgrown gardens, falling down abandoned building were a complimenting contrast to the sweet, soft girly items from the above designers.

A special thank you to Skye, Emmerson and Dylan for being such wonderful models!  See later this week for more on the Bendigo Magazine fashion stories and La Toriana’s products.  We also have some behind the scenes shots…. you’ll love!

You can easily see how well the brocade BOSTON hat matches perfectly in with the Tea Princess Smock dress and white leggings on Emmerson above.  Its a classic, elegant and stunning  little girls designer clothing outfit.

Dylan (below) wears the Tea Princess ivory beanie, boat neck long sleeve tee and the pink harem pants.  The Pink Junket hat is so sweet, and gorgeous on little girls its going to be a definite hit this coming season and into Summer.  The lace detail and adorned with brass studs is a gorgeous look for little girls.

Skye below looks dreamy and so elegant and “girly” in the Tea Princess cape, leggings with attached skirt, tulle headband and also in the pink cardigan and tulle skirt.

 

After a quick change and move down to the grassed area of Rosalind Park, we all had some fun. Three Little  Trees, Tea Princess, Knuffle Kid, Bethany’s Child all look stunning.

Dillon here wears the long sleeve Tee from Three Little Trees, Harem Pants from Tea Princess and headband from Tea Princess. Emmy below wears vintage inspired antique rose from Bethany’s Child and Skye wears Princess Allure clip.

WE all had a fun and wonderful day and I am so happy with the Bendigo Magazines photographer, Alison from Lollypop photography your pics together with mine came out just perfect!

Three LIttle Trees Georgie Dress

My Photo

Winter 2010 collection is sweet and delicious, quirky and oh so much fun.

 

Three Little Trees dishes up the cool factor with an eclectic range of gorgeous winter must haves.

 

Childrens’ imaginations will run wild…little girls, lollies, icecreams, owls, bunnies and birds, balloons flying freely high in the sky.

 

These garments are made from high quality fabrics to keep your children nice and warm on those cold winter days.

 

Layers are also a great way that three little trees has adapted to the different climates around the world making play very comfortable.

 

There is something for every one in this collection, we are sure you will love it!

 

 

The Georgie dress above $59.95 is my favourite.  I love the owl pattern!!

 

Sized quite generous, my almost 8 yr old fit well in the size 7 with room.

I love the Charlee dress $59.95 .  Looks awesom with leggings as featured here or thick tights too.  Wear it with or without the pink ribbon for a complete different look. 

The Molly white winter long sleeve Tee, $34,95  is sure to be fav in your little girls wardrobe this Winter season.  Soft and cutre and true to sizing, team with leggings, skirts and jeans for many different outfit looks.

WE love Three LIttle Trees online at La Toriana.  See what we wrote about last years 2009 Winter Collection of Three LIttle Trees HERE.

Australian designers and business in todays kids fashion industry, Kate and Jacqui are so talented.  Here is a little about them in their own words….

Welcome to Three Little Trees……

Our gorgeous photography is taken by www.lumin-essence.com.au

Every child is unique and beautiful in many different ways. Kate and Jacqui design bold stunning styles to reflect and enhance the beauty of all children in this world.

We began this journey because we believed that we could bring something new and unique to fashion for children and babies. If you have ever heard the saying “We do not own the Earth, we merely borrow it from our children” you will understand what Three Little Trees is all about.

With every garment there are native seeds according to the country the garments are sold in attached to each swing tag. The idea here is that children from all over the earth; while looking stylish, can plant these little seeds and watch our world grow with them. This tiny little thing that we can teach our children to do will sustain our earth for their children and grandchildren for many years to come. Educating our children on sustainability is of great importance to the ethos of Three Little Trees.

We are mums and we know what is practical and what works in the daily activities of little ones. We have gone to a great deal of effort to create sensible stylish ranges, and we hope you all enjoy them as much as we have in designing them.

Enjoy…xxx

You would have to agree these are so sweet designs for the Australian 2010 kids fashion Winter season.  Remember too… each garment from Three Little Trees  receives FREE seeds to help tsart your own little patch with the kids.  There are limited sizes so dont procastinate too long, I really dont like seeing sad faces!

KooL KidZ – A Winter Wonder

Published by Elizabeth under KooL KidZ

Hi there,
 Here is a picture of my two kidlets, showing off their winter LaToriana purchases and out in style in Castlemaine and Bendigo recently!
(Ruben loves the Lambykins Urban set of cap and blanket  and loves wearing and playing with his Cheeky Little  Soles shoes as you can see above)
Skye is 4 and Ruben is 8 months old. People keep stopping me everywhere to ask about her Three Little Trees duffel coat  (below) and her warm pink Tea Princess hat.
 
Skye loves practical comfy clothes, going out for hot chocolates, is an apple eating freak, does colouring and puzzles and loves riding her scooter around our kitchen. Her favourite foods are roast anything with veges and gravy. Ruben loves his ball with holes in it for easy holding and a squeaky monkey and adores his Aussie rules footy. He is the only boy in our families so he has to! They adore each
other. Ruben seems to love white fish blended with any vege.
A funny story recently:
Whilst eating an icecream, Skye started to politely giggle when a man came and sat down behind me. She tried so hard to stop but the harder she tried the worse it got! I turned and saw a poor man with an enlarged eyeball. She concentrated on her icecream and was very polite but we got up to leave anyway. I asked her to talk to me about it, about why she found it funny. After clearly feeling uncomfortable she stated “that man back there, I think he was playing Eye Spy with my Big Eye!!”
Our favourite recipe is french toast or

This MEATLOAF

which satisfies all: Blend for Ruben, tomato sauce for Skye and veges for us:

500g lean mince
1 cup lowfat cottage cheese
1/2 cup oatbran
1 beaten egg
1 medium onion

1/4 cup of finely chopped capsicumIf YOU have a great tip, recession buster, saving money advice or a great recipe… send it in. 

2 stalks chopped celery

2 tbsp flax seeds

1 crushed garlic clove

1/2 teaspoon salt

pepper to taste

SIMPLY

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl, spread into a baking dish so about

2 inches high, spray with olive oil and place in pre-heated oven at 180 degrees.

Play for 45 minutes!!!

Enjoy being out and about this Winter!

Kym Skye and Ruben

 Thanks Kym….   had a laugh about Skye containing herself!!   I am not too sure Tiana would do the same… lol

 

Thanks so much for the recipe..   versatile for ALL the family! 

I am going to give it a go…..   I especially love the  instructions   “Play” for 45 mins.   

 …………………………………….

 Just email a pic of the kids, names and ages, a tip, recipe, some advice and what your kids love wearing and playing with

If we publish it we will post out a gift just for you, so dont forget your address!

am looking forward to seeing them all.

Every mum loves stylish baby clothes, and buying quality baby wear online these days is so much easier!  Pop into La Toriana for the latest in baby clothing and fashions for kids! Buying childrens clothes online has never been more convenient.  we look forward to welcoming you

Warmly

Elizabeth xx
