A Little Bit of The Good Life

Whether you live in a high rise flat, a semi in suburbia or a sweeping country estate, Innocent Drinks are planning to make farmers of you and your children this Spring. From March until April, every box of Innocent kids smoothies or fruit tubes will come with its very own pack of easy to grow seed. There are 6 varieties to collect including carrots, tomatoes, cress, basil and sunflowers. Every pack also comes armed with growing instructions, cut out and keep plant markers and fab plant facts.

Keep your eyes peeled for these special packs from the beginning of next month in all the supermarkets, we don’t think they will be around for long!

Dog Blog: Be Foxy in AW 2012

The highlight of this doggy fashionista’s calendar is Bubble. Twice a year anyone who is anyone in the world of children’s clothing takes to the stage and exhibits their next season’s collection. Held in London last week, it attracted designers from across the globe and included anything from socks to party frocks, and everything in between.

The cold, gloomy weather and soggy paws made it all the easier to think about what our little ones should be wearing next Winter.  The “Must Have” lists include the bright, retro knits from Tootsa MacGinty which cleverly depict all time favourites nursery rhymes like the Three Little Pigs and Goldilocks. The thick collegiate knit blankets and booties from Toffee Moon were just made for snuggling under and should be on every newborn’s wish list.

  

Green Baby too excelled themselves this season, with fabulous padded sleeved quilted jackets for both babies and kids, just perfect for Winter walks and doggy exercise! The new baby range from pyjama designer, Pixie Dixie definitely deserves a big bark as it is just perfect for this Jubilee and Olympic year. With bus baby-grows and soldier rompers – we have to all stand to attention and take note of this brilliant nightwear designer.

Finally and VERY importantly there was a canine (ish) theme. Foxes – love them or hate them, they will be big news by the end of 2012. Featured across the so many of the designers on jumpers, dresses, t-shirts and even shoes – if you want to be part of the pack this Autumn, it seems it has got to be FOXY!

Dog Blog: Yummy Mummy in 3 Easy Steps!

Our little orange dog logo has become such a a well known character that we have decided to let him off the leash. As a well trained and highly skilled canine detective, he is now tasked with searching the land and for anything interesting that relates to the wonderful world of parenting, babies and kids.

First up is a fab new product for the girls!

Juggling nappies, routines and play dates with any sort of beauty regime is nigh on impossible and more often than not it is the first to go (along with your size 10 skinnies!) Well if you get yourself just one thing this year, indeed it should almost be a resolution, buy Fibre Lash Brush on Lashes. Honestly – they are AMAZING!

 In a simple, super quick two step process of mascara swipe + lash fibre swipe you are basically adding false eye lash fibres to your natural lashes. The mascara is the glue, the lash is the well…lash! The more you swipe, the more fibres you add, the more dramatic the effect! So simple but oh so effective.

These glamourous wonders are £35 from BootstheChemist and are available now.

However, being a well connected dog has it’s benefits. Dannii Minogue is a huge fan of these lashes and has 5 pairs up for grab on her fabulous blog . Simply like her Facebook page, enter your details and da daaaaaa you may find $200 worth of gorgeousness winging its way to you next month (this is open to us UK peeps too!).

Could being glamourous, ever be more simple?

Right, off for a blow dry, WOOF!WOOF!
