New Series: Fashion Stories: Noemí from Cozy&Free

A new column here on B:Kids and it's all about the talented people behind the fashion labels we like to buy for our children. I have sent invitations to several kids fashion designers and aksed them to share some images with us 'from-behind-the-scenes' ... and answer a few short questions.

Hope you like the series. Today we kick-off with Noemí from Cozy&Free ... please enjoy!

 

A Fashion Story by Noemí from Cozy&Free

C: Cozy&Free stands for... feeling comfortable and free. There’s no one without the other.

O: Originality is... Sticking to your guts in spite of what everyone else tells you.

Z: Zipper, zebra or zeitgeist and why... If I have to pick one I guess that would be zeitgeist, though but by the minute, not a time or era.

Y: Years from now I will... Still be curious and use all of our senses and maybe add a few more.

Come and Draw Table by Tian Tang design

Sometimes you see something that makes so much sense!

Yes this super fun drawing table called Come and Draw would look very nice in our home too! Tiang Tiang is the designer who currently studies and lives in Gothenburg, Sweden. I discovered Come and Draw at the blog of this good looking kids magazine from Denmark, thanks Mia for introducing me to it.

Lode Loves Dino's, my pillows for him...

My son is a Dino addict ... it started when he was a bit younger and very afraid of the dark and when he saw some dino cartoons on  tv he started believe that these lovely creatures could protect him ... when I was working on my sewing machine a little while ago he asked whether i could make a Dinosaurs for him... so totally inspired by the sewing techniques of the wonderful Kristin from KLT:Works and Samantha from MummySam I created some dino-pillows for him ... and see here the result :)

Some other dino inspired things my son would surely love are these finds below...

 Dino Stamp Set; Dino undies; Dino lunch bag; Dinobox drawing set; Dinosaurs Matching Game;
