Featurekins//Dot To Dot London AW16

By Donna Tweedale, Former Contributor Leave a Comment

Hosted in the Vinyl Factory just off of Carnaby Street in London, myself and Emily were so excited to visit Dot To Dot to meet with brands of old favourites and new exhibiting their visions for AW16 for the first time. Dot to Dot is always a carefully curated show in an environment where you can take the time to meet with the creative’s behind the brands and gather a real understanding of their values and appreciate their lines.

Wool in modern shapes and vibrant tones will be a big influence on the next season. A great advocate of which was new brand Knit Planet. A parent team having fun with knit wear and capturing moments of childhood friendship.

We had a whole lot of love for new label Maison Chaos awarded Best Collection of the show, a title well deserved. Created by a team of fathers from Sweden using fabrics that are predominantly seen across the adult luxe athletic trend and applying them to Children’s wear. The result. A line of superhero inspired ready to wear pieces of modern voluminous shapes and fluidity; with superb attention to detail. Neoprene sweaters and metallic pleated skirts this Autumn Winter? We cannot wait.

From Childrenswear to Interiors, HAM walked away with the award for Best Stand. A display of the brand’s new wall stickers and crafted wares encapsulating the playful moments of a Rabbit. These beautifully presented nostalgic prints in their monochrome style are great fun for any nursery.

Sleepykins // Prints which bring your room to life!

By Mel Spurling, Contributor Leave a Comment

Meet the two creatives behind Sprout and Sparrow who create bold, contemporary art prints which bring colour and life into any little child’s space.  Adi (a former lawyer) and Tash (a graphic designer) are sisters and mums to four cheeky (but gorgeous) kids.

Sprout and Sparrow was born after the two sisters spent hours scouring shops and the internet to find the perfect piece of art for their little ones’. They didn’t want to spend a lot of money and just wanted to find something a little bit different, bold yet colourful.  Nothing really grabbed their attention, so in a brief moment of calm during a play date one morning, they came up with an idea over a pot of peppermint tea: “let’s make our own art!” And so they did! It has become a great creative outlet for them and the world loves them. 

Adi and Tash find so much inspiration everywhere.  They love colour. Even in the midst of the monochrome craze they have always maintained bright colourful pieces in their stunning range.  Their new range is predominantly inspired by their kids.  Their ‘Paper plane’ print came about because one of their kids is a little obsessed with paper planes; if you look closely at the print, you will see his words on the page.   Such a beautiful and personal touch.

Every little kid needs a little Sprout and Sparrow in their rooms!

Fashionkins // Jules in black and white

By Isabel Leave a Comment

It is no surprise when I tell you I like all things black and white. I tend to buy a lot in those colours for the kids too.

The other day Jules asked me if I would take his picture on the roofterrace. When you hear a proposal like that, you just can’t refuse. Although, I knew that he just wanted to do a shoot because he wanted candy afterwards. Yes, I am that kind of a mother. Not proud of it, but honest enough to admit that I ‘sometimes’ bribe my kids to pose for me.

So here comes Jules. In black and white.

Luvkins // Honeycup

By Priscila Barros, Editor-in-Chief 1 Comment

I always loved show and tell at school, and this little blog feature today, is my show and tell in the adult world.
I would like to show you the work of Simone Downey of Honeycup and tell you that she is a brillant illustrator who like me, is a Melbourne girl.   She also has her own blog which is one to add to your bookmarks.

Her images are wintery and quirky which i love and I often use in my unisex room designs as they are gender friendly.
The problem is, i try to design unique rooms for every client but Simone continually releases such wonderful prints that i want to use them in every child’s room.  I hope you can see why?

Copyright © 2022 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
