Life In style
4 March, 2010
What an amazing 4 days at Sydney’s Life Instyle last week!!! We were surrounded by some great exhibiters Miss Haidee with her vintage one off’s made by Nanna’s in Byron Bay, Aunty Ollie with her wonderful retro wear, Jazslings the practical one piece sling (no rings..I love it) and the very lovely Mally from Grasshopper a beautifully hand knitted range of baby wear by some amazing women in Zimbabwe.
Other wonderful products I saw were from Princess Ratbag (the most luxurious pettiskirts ever), with there new apricot / musk skirts (can’t say it enough…amazing) and as always clever, clever Jetti Spaghetti with lamps, chopsticks and blackboard placemats .
We had a busy time, what with all the trade shows happening at the same time, George Michael playing near the grounds and the Mardi Gras Parade on the Saturday, there was lots of colour and movement!
Surrounded by cardboard yet again, I wore my Mady Dooijes hemp/organic cotton dress (dyed with tea…very cool, check this designer out 
and talked eco peko until I was peko’ed right out…..
Thank you, thank you to my very talented sister for all her help…..until next year…bye, bye Instyle and…. hello Upmarket
Kids inStyle
10 August, 2009
Its taken just over a week to recover from what seems like the longest trade show in the world (5 days!!!).
Kids inStyle, is a part of Life inStyle and is very impressive indeed. This year it was held in The Royal Exhibition Building in Carlton, Melbourne and there were over 500 exhibitors.
We were tucked in the far back corner and had built a cardboard house, which was a first for the show. It took us two days and a lot of sweat and tears (mine), but it finally came together (and again…was very impressive indeed) We were voted one of the top 20 best in show by Kids Style File …yay!
The cardboard Cubby
Luckly we were situated next to some very cool ‘tradies’ indeed. To our left were the Boofheads girls. They create posh shampoo for kids, and though its not organic is SLS and sulphate free and the perfume (notes of patcholi..which I love) is devine. My daughter (who hated having her hair washed) now has the shiniest hair on the street. I can’t recommend it enough.
Next to them were the very lovely Paris and Louise from Jetti Spaghetti who have created chop sticks for kids, and my 4 year old and 2 year old, love them (and can use them!).
On our right was Gillian from Danish by Design, who had a rug, that was actually a dolls house (its amazing!).
The team consisted of Mim (thank you dear sister) and great friends James and Dean, who helped put the whole thing together.
Thanks everyone, see you in Sydney for next years show!
