With the warmer weather occurring in a lot of areas, it is difficult to dress your baby in something cool, yet much funkier than a plastic nappy and plain singlet. This is probably where my attraction to Modern Cloth Nappies came from, something I could dress my baby in that looked good and yet still keep him cool (yes, I am sorry, my reasons for going to cloth nappies was not an environmental nor choice one, it was purely a fashion one).
So today I thought I would have a look around as some handmade singlets to keep baby cool on those hot summer days and surprisingly I struggled to find a lot of different things out there.
Dot singlet and Bloomers available on Made it by Wild Things of Noosa. Bloomers are a great you can cover up that pesky nappy and they are cool and comfy for your baby.
The very cute short set is this Olive Rose short set from Ollie Rose.
This Vintage Flower Tank top is by Inretrospect.
A tank top with a difference is this crocheted sleeve top from Ivy Designs. Featuring a cute little button, it is simple yet very sweet.
Home alone on a Saturday night I am listening to music, which I rarely get a chance to do without the constant “mum” interuptions.
My music of choice tonight is Kenny Wayne Shepperd, a bit of the blues, although I am not blue today, more in a rock and roll mood (though kind of hard to be too rock and roll when you are a mum, home alone in your jammies on a Saturday night ).
And so is tonights inspiration ROCK AND ROLL………………
Any good aspiring rock parent should head straight to, Rock Your Baby of course when looking for absolutely funky wear! If anyone from my family are reading my boys NEED a pair of those jeans!
These coveralls are by Chillibub Clothing, and in that funky leopard print are bound to make your baby the coolest in the sandpit this summer.
Little boys need a rough and tough shirt for this summer and Ruffian Industries have some fantastic shirts for the up and coming rock star in your life such as this Butch Shirt.
There is nothing princess about this little romper from Mini Threads and available at Hollywood Baby
I also happen to love the Australian label Monster Baby, it is edgy, unique and bound to draw attention. Some are not for the faint hearted, but I do love this one featuring Mr T (hint hint family).
And lastly something for those that want that rock and roll look but to still retain a bit of sweetness, is this Sugar Skulls Skirt Set from Ollie Rose.
Well it is nearly 8.30 pm here, and time for this rock and roll mum to be not quite so cool and get ready for bed!
The draw to find the winner of our little blog competition was extremely technical I can report.
I was going to let the youngest member of our family choose it, but I figured he would pull them all out and eat them before I had a chance to rescue one.
Instead, it consisted of printing names on paper and putting them into a giant pelican toy gadget, shaking them all about (no doing the hockey pockey) and drawing one out. And so the winning name drawn out of that big pelican was……………… drum roll please……………….
Congratulations Cora’s Mum, an email is on it’s way to you for your details!
