Vincent children’s winter boots

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.

Rice -so much more than Melamine cups

Autumn and winter is the time to enjoy indoor life, the days are getting shorter and the dark cozy afternoons and nights longer.
Rice has gathered a collection of items for you to enjoy this season -just a little bit more;


Little Scandinavian especially adores the oh-so-fun and cute knitting needles, both for children and adults -to get started on that scarf (Christmas present for dad). Did you know Rice was a lot more than melamine cups and spoons?!?
To see more fun and cheerful items from Rice visit www.rice.dk

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas

I'm dreaming of a white ChristmasPicture to the left is taken today, it’s the view from our sitting room. And it’s only 8 days left to Christmas Eve. Are you all sorted with cards, gifts, food and last but not least the Christmas outfit?
It’s snowing in London today. The sky is filled up with snowflakes, twirling slowly to the ground. I know it’s a long shot, but I’m dreaming of a white Christmas. I’ve just been to Amélie’s nativity play in School. And helping out several little girls getting ready, dressed as angels, really got me into that Christmas spirit. And then all the snow!
Then later, after a quick coffee with the Scandinavian dad in a snow covered Canary Wharf, I started thinking about the girls Christmas outfits. And as it’s so cold now I’m thinking knit / wool, velour or cord. Something warm and cozy. Most shops have had a pre start on their Winter sale already, so there is a lot of last minute bargains out there. And I need to remember to renew the pyjamas section! It’s always nice to have an excuse to buy something, and the up coming Christmas morning is a very good one! I love traditional flannel, but organic cotton is lovely too.
