Answer Me Chic: From Infant to Toddler Room

June 22, 2012 in Children

We love putting to use our shopping addictions to help solve your shopping dilemmas which is why we run Answer Me Chic. While typically the Answer Me Chic posts are fashion related, we are always up for a challenge and happy to help with anything beauty, children or lifestyle related. Today we have an reader request from Jacquie who was looking for some bedroom inspiration for her toddler. In particular, Jacquie wanted white furniture and some good storage ideas as well as colour – bright blue, lime green, grey and orange.

We used these pictures as our inspiration

And from there, we found these picks:

Both of these can be used ‘up-right’ or turned to lay horizontally like in our inspiration pictures above.

6 Cube White Shelf from Deals Direct ($69.95)

Nevada 8 Cubes from Office Works ($69.87)

I love this! The orange door adds a great pop of colour and perfect for hiding whatever toy mess is inside. While you’re over there, grab an extra 20% off until 9pm tonight with the code ‘EOFY’

Two Cubes Storage Unit from Mocka ($39.95)

This is the perfect little bed to transition your baby from cot to a ‘big bed’. No need to buy an extra mattress either, standard cot sizes will fit.

Mother’s Choice Toddler Bed from Baby Booty ($149.95)

 

These four cubes are white with a different insert colour in each. Perfect for storing books, photos or even a battery run night light

Dekorkube Set in Satin White from Buyster ($104)

Just a few ‘bonus’ picks to add a little bit of colour and functionality.

Small Blue Lined Storage Basket from Home Storage and Living ($16.80)

Kids Arm Chair in Blue from Mocka ($39.95)

One Fish, Two Fish Cushion from Mooch Designs ($32.00)

Apart from the online stores listed, here are some more of our favourites when it comes to children’s furniture and room decor:

Hip Kids

Mini Mecca

Giggle Smile Designs

We hope we have given you some starting inspiration Jacquie!

A Chic Feature: Little Boo-Teek

May 16, 2012 in Children

When you have children, shopping online becomes even more convenient. Why take out the pram, the nappy bag, snacks and bottles (and of course, the kids!) for a few hours of shopping when I can visit all of my favourite children’s boutiques in the comfort of my bed while sipping on a cup of tea.

Of course with so many boutiques for little people floating around the internet, it can be easy for some fabulous ones to fall through the cracks, so Shop Me Chic makes it easier by finding the brilliant ones and showing them to you!

Today we are introducing you to Little Boo-Teek.

Little Boo-Teek stocks some of my favourite brands for kids, including Alphabet Soup, Bebe by Minihaha, Milky and Fox & Finch.

Stocking clothes, toys, wall decals, canvas prints, blankets, bibs and gorgeous gifts, Little Boo-Teek is the perfect one-stop-shop. Not to mention the beautiful (and easy to use) design of the website itself. It truly is a lovely place to visit.

We had a quick chat to Tina, the stylish mummy of three who was inspired to start Little Boo-Teek after a rather scary experience. During Tina’s third pregnancy, she developed a complication called ‘placenta accreta’. While on bed rest, Tina turned to online shopping to buy clothes for her little girls and as she puts it, “My love of online shopping turned into a passion (actually bordered on an obsession!)”.

Tina gave birth to her third (and healthy) baby girl on 25 May 2011 but battled further complications post-delivery. Tina says, “As I started to recover…With lots of encouragement from my amazing husband, Little Boo-Teek was born. As corny as it may sound I felt I’d been given a second chance and had to grab hold of life and do something I love!”

There are so many online boutiques out there; we wanted to know what sets Little Boo-Teek apart from the rest.

“We stock great quality designer labels BUT our prices aren’t inflated…our love and passion shows in our service and beautifully packaged orders – irrespective of spend!” Tina explains.

Here are a few of my favourite items from Little Boo-Teek based not only on how adorable they are, but also on their price compared to other online stores.

Milky Floral Tunic Top

Alimrose Designs Moo Cow Rattle

Bebe Spencer Fitted Tee

This is one online find you will want to save to your shopping favourites!

Stay Chic,

Melinda & Sonia. Xx
