Petit By Sofie Schnoor





Petit By Sofie Schnoor is a Danish brand that was established in 2007.
 
Realising the lack of alternatives to modern branded children’s clothing featuring large brand names, strong colours and extreme patterns, Sofie Schnoor set out to create a world of clean cut collections in soft colours. To Sofie, seeing the child is more important than seeing the logo on his or her sweat shirt.

Petit by Sofie Schnoor has been inspired by the 1920’s classic features in combination with the raw look of high quality products for which this designer is so well-known. 

As part of this collection Schnoor has developed a range of footwear fit for royalty (literally!). Worn by the likes of Princess Mary’s children they certainly have some influential admirers, and for good reason. 

The range is made from butter soft leather which is so smooth to the touch you would be thrilled to place them on the softest of teeny tiny feet. 

The shoes are not only soft to touch, they are practical with well gripped rubber soles well suited for those delicate first few steps or the more experienced and energetic ones.

Available in a variety of styles for both boys and girls including Mary Janes, Ballet Flats, sandles and boots. In a range of natural and subtle toned colours from greys and silver, to browns pinks and blues, there is a pair of shoes to complement any wardrobe with quality and style.

RRP: from AUD$55.00

Available in Australasia from 55 Degrees North.

Heirloom Christening Gowns Ivy Emerald Our Website of The Week


Ivy Emerald was established in early 2008 by Janice Schmitzer, a grandmother of 3, after recognising a gap in the market for heirloom quality Christening gowns and rompers for baby girls and boys.


‘I realised there was a gap in the market on the birth of my grandson when my daughter had great difficulty in sourcing a special boy’s gown for his Baptism. My 4 daughters and 2 granddaughters had all worn the same gown but we wanted something special for a little boy.’

Ivy Emerald’s divine, hand made designer gowns are handcrafted in Australia. Gowns are made from intricate hand beaded laces and silks and can be passed on to brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, granddaughters and grandsons.

An heirloom gown is really something to be treasured. Heirlooms link generations in a deep and personal way. A grandmother’s christening gown passed down through the generations can provide insight into and a richer understanding of a family’s history.

A Christening is a special celebration to which family and close friends attend when a baby is taken for their baptismal and christened with their name. It is an important occasion – putting Christenings alongside Weddings as a lovely gathering for families. Following the ceremony can be a celebration ranging from a small gathering with cake and coffee, to a huge party with much food and entertainment.

Ivy Emerald recognises the importance of dressing your baby in exquisite dress – a Christening gown is as big a part of the traditional Christening ceremony as the bride’s dress is on her Wedding day.

Ivy Emerald now also stock an exquisite range of flower girls dresses up to age 8 .

Did i mention they are also proud CZARQUE stockists
