Something nice for kids- Australia as mentioned in my first post started out of my frustration of not being able to find something nice for my daughter to wear to one of our greek family weddings. The more I spoke with friends the more I found I wasn't alone. I decided it was time to do something about it. and that i did. I took the opportunity to use our summer vacation to Greece as the start of my scouting for kids partywear and special occasion clothing.
Welcome Paris, France.
I couldn't really then pass up the opportunity of being so close to some of the worlds fashion capitals and not visit them. So with my husband and daughter erini in tow, we caught a plane and arrived in the fashion capital Paris 5 days later.
Well for those of you who have kids, travelling with children is truly a unique and may I say character building experience.
We visited many children's boutiques, designers and established some great networks for bringing in new designers to Australia from France. You will see one of the designers arrive into Australia in early 2009. The label designs beautiful clothing for baby's, girls and boys clothing. The clothes are just delightful and of great quality. Perfect for a present for someone too.
What else did we get up to in Paris?
Let's say, the Eiffel tower looks great from one kilometre away, the louvre entrance looked spectacular from the outside and the Jardin des Tuileries gardens was our home for most mornings. Pictured here is my daughter erini standing outside the Louvre (this is as close as we got!!!). You might think why, why why... but when you have kids life has a way of shifting priorities.
What is the Jardin des Tuileries? It is Paris's most central garden. It connects the Louvre with the Place de la Concorde and forms a part of the large central axis between the Louvre and La Défense. It is a haven for parents and their kids. You have the gorgeous enclosed kids park at one end, the pony rides, boat races at one end and then the famous fun park with its huge ferris wheel on the other.
This trip was a great experience for us here at somethingniceforkids and a great inspiration for bringing in new clothing labels. Erini below is wearing one of the labels we are going to be bringing in for you to enjoy soon.
When beautiful clothes deserve to be worn, played in and most of all enjoyed by children.... Visit us for more beautiful designers, dresses, tops and accessories for your kids.
