How about wearing Felt today...

Wtw_felt

Posted by Kellie from Buisjes En Beugels +++ 

This afternoon I was pausing my work by surfing over the internet and again I noticed (with great pleasure) the white transparent dress with mixed bright colored felt dots on it from Nicola Edeler! I think this one is an evergreen, it must be! It catches the eye immediately...

Nicola Edeler is both a clothier as an artist. Unfortunately I can’t find his or her website or contact info and that’s a pity, because I like to present these pieces in my own webshop. But I did notice that the great shop Lillibulle (Paris) sells these fantastic designs online:

If anyone can give us a link with more information about Nicola Edeler please leave a comment.

Monday brings a new Mom Story...

MOM_carina

Finally....she is our guest today! This super stylish lady has been on B:Kids's wish list for a long time to have as a guest...her shop brings one of the best collections for kids and I LOVE her own fashion brand. Her name is Carina Schott and she also authors the very informative blog called NonchalantMom. Her style, her home, her posts and her 'yellow' all appeal to me very much...sorry I wish my English vocabulary was a bit more rich so I could use other words, but have a look for yourself and you perhaps feel the same as I do :)

#458 Bear Feet Shoes

b>tags | ..kids fashion
Bearfeetshoes

A little while back I 'met' two pair of shoes from Bear Feet Shoes and oh boy are these high quality shoes! In 1985 the company was founded with just one pair of shoes, but Bear Feet Shoes grew rapidly and nowadays there is a gorgeous collection of children shoes made from as many natural or organic products as possible.

Perhaps I told you before, but I grew up surrounded by shoes, my father had a shoe trading company, focused mainly on children shoes ... I even helped design some of the shoes for his brand, so from experience I can tell you Bear Feet Shoes are High Quality and beautifully made!

The plan was showing this nice house in Norway with you on Monday, but I guess you don't mind me sharing it with you today. In this house lives Unni Strand with her family and Unni teaches interiors, design and art subjects, but she also creates and designs very nice accessories for the home and to wear.
