one for the girls

I've been waiting a long time to introduce the following labels to you-

The unfortunate part about finding amazing labels from around the world is that they are generally a season out...

so whilst it may be a little early, I just couldn't wait any longer!

Alejandra Kearl

Alejandra designs gorgeous, yet affordable collections for girls.

Her designs are very original, & strongly feature embroidery & we love that she maintains a sweat-shop free company.

Of course I've already seen Winter (2010) & I'm equally excited about that!

Dan Dan

Aiko Decelles designs the Dan Dan collection: which means, 'gradual' or 'step-by-step'

Aiko places great emphasis on growing step-by-step with the child...

wait till you see what she has in store for next season.

for now, you'll be sweetly enchanted by the gorgeous styles on offer for Summer.

Capturing whimsy & innocence, all in a versatile, practical package.

Chase 'n Sky

Another one for the girls,

again a feeling of nostalgia & simplicity is evident in this line.

Perfect for Summer in gorgeous fabrics.

Ooooh look!

I must admit I'm not really a celeb follower, but I did get a buzz out of seeing this image of Nicole Ritchie with her daughter Harlow wearing a dress by Pink Chicken NY which we stock!

another sneak preview- Havoc Denim

Havoc Denim has arrived!

Denim to create Havoc in!

for a while now, I've been trying to find a range of Denim to stock

at ele-ahbaant that is great quality, great fit, funky styles & child appropriate.

oh, & I didn't want it to carry a massive price tag,

like I've seen on some brands.

Imagine my surprise to find an emerging Australian designer

that ticks all the boxes!

soon, very soon Havoc Denim will be arriving at ele-ahbaant.

Havoc Denim's main goal was to provide customers with soft quality denim after realising that it was an area lacking in the children's market.

Their denim has been treated & finished with 3 different processes,

then pre-washed- this has to be the softest new denim I think I've ever felt!

the hardest part for me was trying to decide which styles to choose,

I've chosen a few of my favourites, with aid from my

7 yr old helper/model/stockgirl :)

Mathilda's Market

Mathilda's Market came & went today, preceeded by a flurry of activity,

& culminating in a chaotic dance of sales, service, smiles & satisfaction .

(& sore feet!)

It was a fantastic day, where I was able to chat with my customers about some of the fantastic brands that I carry that are not widely available

(or not available anywhere else) in Australia, get some face to face feedback,

& even check out some great products around me.

(some that I just might be introducing to you very soon at ele-ahbaant :)

I even get to show off some of my 'own creations'

you know it doesn't matter how many 'ahbaant' t-shirts I sew,

people just seem to go dotty over them.

boom-boom

now, I know I keep telling you how excited I am about some of the

fantastic new products coming to ele-ahbaant very soon...

honestly, I'll be telling you much more very soon.

(make sure you sign up to the ele-ahbaant newsletter to find out first!)

there's one that I've been secretly hoping for, trying for even *begging* to stock for a wee while now, & I received the best news the other day...

I'll be telling you who they are as soon as I have my first order officially in :)

Redfish Clothing comes to ele-ahbaant

One fish, two fish,

you know how it goes...

so here's the next great brand to join the ele-ahbaant selection

gorgeous clothes from

Redfish Clothing.

to 'open' with check out these Fisherman's style pants, in dark denim.

I'm loving them for a funky take on jeans for kids

that not only look fantastic,

but are comfortable for your little one too.
