intro

Monday's quick start: Lille*Nord

Did spring arrive for you too this weekend.. I heard my friends from the Netherlands saying they were so happy to feel some sun on their skin and finally being able to play outside again ... things you absolutely start taking for granted when living in an exotic place like us.

So let's start the new week week with something sunny and light ... the second issue of Lille Nord ... a new FREE online magazine for trendy parents and children alike with a love for everything Scandinavian.

It is the Scandinavian issue packed with fun DIY projects ... inspiration for your home, party and cooking and an introduction to upcoming and established Scandinavian designers, artists, illustrators.

Inspired :: Adriana Duque

I was looking over at Kid-In magazine and saw their interview with Adriana Duque. She takes gorgeous photograph's and I felt inspired by her images. Especially the ones I have included in this post. Adriana's pictures are a wonderful mix of moods - dark, light, detailed and simple.  - Tiffany King

Online Magazine round-up

Last two weeks so many new issues of online magazines launched that I haven't had time to read them all, so i thought i make a round-up with easy-click throughs so i can find them back quickly.

I'm very impressed with all the women behind these magazines, they are doing an extra-ordinary and pionering job. I know a lot of hard work goes into this with not a lot of 'pay' but they do it with a lot of passion and love for the kids fashion, design and craft world.

Starting with Papier Mache... a true feast for the eye... every page a new stunning image...{thank you for your very nice words about BKids Wear Neon... we are truly honored that YOU like them!!|

small magazine by Christine from Texas and former New Yorker, Olivia, who now lives  in Australia... small was one of the first online magazines, this is already no. 17.
