Kids can fly!

We are getting some new stuff in preparing to our new boutique opening and we would like to give all our customers a chance to get their hands on the good stuff before it actually arrives!

Kids imagination is huge and we as parents should encourage it, with role play, dressing up and helping them create stories and all those fun things.

Kids love dressing up and very often get so glued to a costume or piece of 'fairytale' clothing that they don't want to take it off when you want to go out! If it hasn't happened to you don't worry, it will!!

I regularly get this with my 2 and a half year old girl, she has one of these and very often doesn't want to take it off, she calls it her princess skirt and she does look like a princess twirling around in it everywhere bless her.

With this in mind, when I saw this set I just couldn't resist!!! I can imagine my kids wanting to 'fly' everywhere and they will look so cute in matching outfits, don't you think?

I am taking pre orders for these now, make sure you don't miss out as they are going fast, you can see what sizes we have left on our facebook page here and order straight on there!

OTONE Aporto USB Powered 2.0 Speakers Review

OTONE is a UK founded company that are rapidly becoming a leading name in audio world with products designed to please gamers and hi-fi fanatics. 

OTONE have just released a new portable speaker that was distinctively designed for travelling and is also cleverly disguised as a micro system. The unit can be easily connected via USB and 3.5mm connection cables that are supplied. Aporto will be available online from www.otoneaudio.co.uk for £34.99.

Gadget Dad Verdict:

A lot of speaker systems claim that they are versatile and meet the needs of their users but don't always meet those needs. These speakers look stylish and I have had a couple of friends ask where I got them from.

Setup was easy and it is only a simple matter of plugging the sleek cylinder type shape speakers into the USB port of your laptop or computer for power and the 3.5mm jack for the sound to find their way through the good quality speakers. You can alternatively power the unit with batteries if you would like to use these on your iPhone or iTouch while in the park or on the move, wherever you need music to lighten up a cloudy day.

The clever design team of OTONE made sure this speaker unit will surely not go unnoticed. With a light pull the two speakers separate from the unit and presto you now have a micro system! I really like this clever design feature and i am sure other users of this product will love this feature too. It surely sets it apart from the rest.

The speakers do what they are supposed to do for the size and play good quality sound when you need to go portable!

Pros:

• Very clean and unique tube shape speaker unit.
• Truly portable where some other manufacturer units fail, you can also use batteries.
• Cleverly hidden "Micro System" setup.
• Clever little pull out stand.

Cons:

• Could improve a bit on the quality of the plastic grey bit that is exposed when the speakers are pulled apart.

Gadget Dad Rating: 7/10

Our New Boutique - A 'mood board'

Yes, you read it right.... our very own boutique!

Not an online shop... we have had one of those for a while now, our very own actual bricks and mortar shop. I am absolutely delighted but absolutely terrified at the same time, our budget is small but with family and friends helping (hint, hint) we will do a great job!!

So here is my 'mood board' for the look I want to achieve with the shop, Inspired by The White Approach, I must admit that I secretly wish that Karen lived near me and was my absolute best friend as I would so steal her to help me with setting up the shop ( I could also hire her if I had the budget of course!)...

 I love these flowers, I couldn't buy them now even if I find them (which I haven't) as I imagine they would be expensive... but I would love to have these in the shop, either to sell or as decor!

 I am aware this is a kitchen... but this is the colour palette I have in mind, perhaps add a baby yellow in the mix too but it would be just for accents as the main background of the boutique is going to be white :)

 I just liked this picture... I would love to have my house so.... light, I am determined for our boutique to be light and airy!

 Too pretty, Imagine all those bright children's items against the white background!!

Everything will gorgeously stand out.... I'm in dreamland...

 Forget about the accessories on it, forget about the colour of the wall...

The unit is fabulous and I would love to find something similar in a second hand shop or car boot sale for a few quid that I could jazz up.

I will then look fabulous with kids jewellery & accessories on it!

 Another inspiring photo :)

 Again another light and airy room with white, white, white & lots of splashes of colour!















So what do you think?

I haven't seen anything like it in our area, that is for sure!
