HAPPY PARTY!
It’s PARTY seasonnnnn…
For any occassion we always want to throw tiny little parties…
It’s easy, you don’t need much…
So here’s a little view on our tiny -petit-little party at home,
for lil’ mr. J’s 3rd birthday party.
With the lovely ‘circus-pompom’ party hats
and ‘striped/stars’-cupcake-gear from Meri Meri.
Just from our Instagram though, which hopefully inspires you…
But if it doesn’t… or you need more,
here’s some more HAPPY PARTY!
To prepare an amazing
DIY boys-party…
EASY!
Have a great day on this slightly grey day…
who cares about grey …
one balloon and the sun is shining : )

Playful at Paris
A few weeks ago already, let’s say three… : )
we’ve rushed back and fourth from Amsterdam, by car, to Paris.
It wasn’t even possible for us to go,
but we couldn’t resist and we’ve made it possible!
With the youngest on tour with us, … that necessary…, hahaha…
Just being there for a little afternoon was enough for
a happy face and being incredibly inspired.
PLAYTIME PARIS it is!
We’ve spent the night at Mama Shelter
and left at 7 in the morning
Owww so lucky we did!
Catching up with our favourites…
Loud Apparel, Noch Mini & Anatology
Ofcourse for their great inspiring designs,
but even more because they’re very nice and inspiring people
and lovely to hang out with. Talking about designs, fabrics, inspiration…
Always first on our list to visit.
In front of Mini Rodini‘s booth (with their ‘always wannahaves’- designs)
we’ve bumped into this cool lady, shop owner of
… TINY (store Berlin), the lovely Anne.
With her amazing good taste and sense of style.
If you’re in Berlin you have to visit her shop… It’s very inspiring!
It was a big surprise to see our photography printed big,
in the booth of Antwerp’s kidsbrand
Lion Of Leisure.
They’ve just started one year ago
and they almost can’t handle the orders
for their handprinted designs.
How wonderful!
Great to see what social media can do for a brand nowadays.
It was also very lovely to say hi to the Dutch Ladies of :
My little Dress Up,
Even though we can meet in Amsterdam : )
A shiny cool collection.
Hopefully we have a lot of weddings next summer.
And having a nice chat with the coolest shoesbrand from London
Chapter 2.
We loved their presentation. Last season they already won a Milk Award.
Follow them, amazing perfectly handmade shoes and belts.
Last but not very least, we’ve met the designer of
Wolf & Rita.
Finally could touch their designs.
Beautiful fabrics!
We’re in love with the clothes, the photography
and the coolest model, their son…
His funny face makes us smile big time!
When we literally left the builing we were introduced, by Lion of Leisure,
to the ladies of Stadlandkind (Switzerland). A Swiss cool webshop.
Whom we know by Instagram.
Haha… So funny that we first meet on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter.
But much better to meet in real live!
Thanks again so much Playtime Paris for being such a great host
and creating a meetingpoint for us.
And big thumbs up to all the inspiring brands.
Be proud, it’s so cool!
SPRING SUMMER 15
Graphic, illustration-wise, colorful in detail, fun elements,
stylish versions of clothing we would love to wear ourselves,
without being too grown-up…
Soft fabrics and sweatfree, eco-friendly…
WHOOP WHOOP!
And some brands made us amazingly happy,
because we know we will work together with them for
OUR NEW CONCEPT,
LAUNCHING start of Autumn.

Beautiful inspiring colors,
shadows and cool dudes on wheels!
Perfect to show you these great photographs on this sunny day,
to get in the mood for an amazing warm and shining weekend.
Images by cool California-based
photographer Nicholas Maggio
We love the way he works. It sounds very logical and easy…
With a camera and his direction…
using daylight. It’s not easy.
It’s about the eye, not the equipment
…
ENJOY THE SHINING DAYS!
whoop whoop!
ps You can watch the talented Mister, working…
BIG in TINY!
TINY store Berlin is the coolest! Seriously!
Is it because of all the cool brands Anne has curated for us?
Yes absolutely!
Her selection, her eye for cool things for kids, her vision…
The icing on the cake though, is her presence in the shop.
Showing her passion for ‘things for kids’ and for the creative mind.
It comes naturally…
Anne Postrach, the founder of TINY store is a beautiful person.
Someone who’ s totally herself.
Just following her heart for art, styles and creativeness.
We’ve spend a few hours in her shop when we visited great Berlin this holiday.
Not because it’s a big shop. Because it feels a bit like home…
A stylish, wannahave it all, version, haha…
The kids can play in the back of the store, which we really like.
Where they can make drawings.
Where they can play hide and seek in the coolest dressingroom.
Almost a piece of art. With special made layered curtains by Nadine Goepfert.
You feel the appreciation of curiosity and fun in design
(copied this sentence, because that’s exactly what it feels like)!
It’s about color, graphics, fabrics, printing and Scandinavian styles.
But also great designs from her own country.
Anne is not afraid to stand out.
We love the pastel sweater, salmon and mint, for the boys.
If I was a brand I would be delighted to be sold in TINY!
The vibe is cool. And basic, as in wood and color, so your brand would stand out.
Like in an art gallery, but without the distance of art.
Anne is also publishing and selling it exclusively in her shop.
A cool little alphabet mag/little book caught our eye
+ the newest (just in the shop) posters created by Nadine Goepfert as well.
Three versions and you really want all three of them.
It’s exciting, intelligent and inspiring!
GO THERE ASAP!
And if you pop in, give her a Cappuccino Soy from us,
from the great bakery across the street…
She will love it!

Dress up dudes
Well hellooooh….
Just a little note to remind you of the cool brand
MY LITTLE DRESS UP from our city Amsterdam.
We did a big review already but there’s
something new.
They’ve launched their ONLINE SHOP!
Whoop whoop!
So to shine and dazzle the girls…,
go to get your’ shiny coolness’ online
as soon as possible!
DUDES, ENJOY TO DRESS UP!

p.s. more bow-ties and classy styles.
Berlin, cool shoes & instagram
We’re celebrating holidays in Berlin with the boyszzzzz…
Quality time with their busy mum (and dad)…
Shopping and hopping from tram, subway to bus…
Not for the touristic sightseeing, but discovering new cool conceptstores
and visiting the ones we‘ve already heard about…
Later this week we will do a Berlin-photoshoot for a cool London-based brand
And getting a lot of inspiration
for our #dream-come-true (at the end of this year).
Secrets secrets secrets…
In between we can update you a bit through
yeeeaaaahhhh #instagram…
After all the complains from some coolio‘s
who couldn’t find us there…
Yeh, we had better things to do…,
but we have to admit…
It suits us… it’s cool, fun, stylish, fast
and we find ourselves in a different world.
Where images rule and that‘s what we LOVE!
So from happy pinning (still do) we’re
slowly becoming insta-family-members.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
