Vincent children’s winter boots

December 4, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

Vincent Shoe Store offers Swedish designed footwear and accessories for babies and children up to the age of 8, with an emphasis on fun and functional unisex shoes in quality leathers. Characterised by bold colours and sleek yet simple styling, Vincent offers high-end style at a mid-range price.

Back in 1999, the Swedish designers Thomas Elbaum and Patrick Osterman created the Vincent brand that is now fast becoming a household name across Scandinavia, Europe and the States. Much of its success lies in its simplicity; a children’s store that offers everything a child needs in terms of footwear; the collections include slippers, wellies, snowboots, shoes for the beach, school, special occasions and everyday casual.

Christmassy and colourful Smafolk

November 9, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

Celebrate a vibrant and colourful Christmas with clothing from danish children’s fashion label Smafolk (Little People).
They have an extensive clothing line with anything from bedlinen and underwear to outerwear. Make sure to check out their wind resistant outerwear too for the coming snowy season, that will in line with the rest of the collection definitely brighten up your day!

Ver de Terre AW10

October 15, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

It’s already snowing in parts of Norway! Officially the 14th of November is the first day of winter and that has once again proven to be right! As we’ll be going to winter wonder land for half term we will need proper outerwear!
Ver de Terre is the Danish brand for excellence in outwear, since 1993. The outerwear is light, comfortable and easy to wear. They are designed so that children can concentrate on what’s important: having fun and move around freely.


Functionality, durability and safety are the hallmarks of their products. For childrens’ safety, hoods are detachable
and have no laces or strings. We think Ver de Terre outerwear is top of the line! Visit www.verdeterre.dk

It’s raining it’s pouring …

October 3, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

Little Scandinavian had planned a photo shoot today, but with the amounts of rain pouring down it doesn’t look like the outdoor event will take place today after all.
Shame, as we were really looking forward to meet the photographer Mi Bewick and to see some fantastic autumn winter outfits in glorious autumn surroundings!
Second thought, considering the season we’re in, we should have gone with rainwear!

But no worries! We’ll reschedule to a dryer day, and of course post the result here.

Meanwhile here’s a picture of Amélie, wearing a waterproof jacket from Helly Hansen and singing in the rain.

Practical Polarn O. Pyret

March 28, 2010 by Scandinavian mum

When you need clothing for outdoors, in sizes baby and children up to 12 years it’s almost guaranteed you’ll find what you are looking for at Swedish chain store Polarn O. Pyret. They are known for good quality and practical clothing for active kids.

Beatrice had to have a new raincoat, and as it’s important to us that a raincoat actually is rainproof and breathable at the same time it can be a challenge to find.

Polarn O. Pyret saves you the time. For the spring they have a very practical lightweight shell jacket which is wind and waterproof and you can choose between the colours red, raspberry, bright blue, green, beige or navy blue. This spring coat is like made for the British weather!

In addition to their basic range that mostly consists of red or blue striped clothing they also have a lot of bright coloured casual wear for the kids. Jeans and tops in bright green and pink, tops with fun prints and really cute sleepwear. Have a look at your nearest Polarn O. Pyret or online at polarnopyret.se
