Up and coming brand Little Duckling had another brilliant stand at Bubble showing their Spring Summer 2011 collection. Their stand clearly stood out with their colllection in primary colours such as red and blue, some items with a strong graphic print. All themed up with vintage furniture and toys to create a complete feeling.


A very charming danish designer is behind this London based brand. There are two limited unique collections a year which are all produced to a very high standard. Spring Summer 2010 shown below, clearly 70′ retro and unbelievable sweet.

Did you know that in Scandinavia we celebrate Midsummer – St.Hans with gathering around huge bonfires and singing traditional songs? The night of St. Hans was supposedly a night of magic. If, for instance, a young girl picked seven flowers and put them under her pillow, she would dream of her future husband. Read more about St Hans here norway.org

Danish designer Tina Wodstrup has since 2004 created functional and comfortable clothes for children up to 12 years with a romantic and nostalgic touch. Tina Wodstrup design is very much sought after in Scandinavia and is also available in Fenwick.

I’ve mentioned Wheat before. The company that is known for gorgeous children’s clothing (up to size 10) is out with another gorgeous Spring Summer collection.





This is high quality items combined with great design at affordable prices. F.ex. the picture that shows the dancing girl. She’s wearing a Wheat silk cardigan and leggings with a gorgeous tulle skirt. The tulle skirt has a retail price around £24.
And what’s so brilliant with this label is that in addition to 2 seasonal collections a year they do have a rather extensive basic collection as well.

What a wonderful afternoon!

As soon as they came home from school the girls quickly changed into their new summer dresses, from Norwegian designer Dundelina.

The girls ran outside into the garden whilst I made some Norwegian waffles. The picnic bag, filled with treats, was then sent carefully down from our balcony with a rope. The fabulous picnic feast were held underneath the garden table covered by a woolen blanket. -What a great way to start the weekend!

It’s time for mummy-time, it’s time for Mamizeit!
