Preview of the new winter Collection...

Australian Winter 2013

Baking Day!

 

Presenting the Australian Winter 2013 Collection.

This small winter collection was made especially for the Aussie Winter out of super cute Little Red Riding Hood fabric, combined with stripes, dots and dear fabric.

It is inspired by long walks through the Dutch woods and I had this beautiful photo shoot in mind with Rose running through the forest with her t-shirt hood on and wearing the cosy vests.

Oh no. Rose had other things in mind. We were going to bake cakes she reminded me. And she was right though. So we did both....

....And little rose is back...

Settling overseas with two small children took a lot longer than I thought, but I have found time, energy and inspiration!

So happy to be creating again!

I'll keep you updated....

Summer is coming....

little rose....

Working on some new outfits...

Back in The Netherlands...

It has been a while since my last post....

So many changes... I am sorry I have forgotten you all...

So what is going on

Well we have had a little boy, Hugo and he is growing up fast. 6 months now!

We have also moved back to the Netherlands. It was a lot harder that I thought it would be moving to the other end of the world with a four year old and a 3 month old baby. But we did it and founf ourselves a lovely place to live in Haarlem, a beautiful old city in the west of the country.

It will just take some time to settle and getting back into the swing of things. I am not sure jet when you can expect a new little rose collection, but I hope soon, because I am missing my creative outlet majorly!

I will keep you up to date...

Dear all,

Little rose is taking some time off as I am due to have a little bub very soon.

The made-it shop is closed and will be opened again after some settling in time and some family time...

Winter Collection available on madeit!

Winter Collection 2011

I am happy to present the new little rose winter collection!

The collection has got a lot of colour, which always makes winter much brighter. Red has been combined with orange & light pink and grey with fuchsia & red. As the collection has been inspired by 'The Sound of Music' it needed leather hose! The leather hose have changed shape in the form of a bright bubble skirt to make them much more girly. They are still combined in the traditional way with a blouse, but then with a little bit of little rose colour.

The skirts in the winter collection are all twirly and the dresses take you back to the Austrian Alps. There is a little pink t-shirt with a Tiroler girl applique and the little vest inspired by the traditional Austrian costumes comes in pink and does combine ever so lovely with the high waisted twirly grey skirt.

Of course we needed the popular ruffled-back-legging back for the little ones! And the fully lined pants from a few winters past have made a comeback too for the little girls who still like to look girly in pink, but just seem to get caught under their dresses with their knees when crawling.

The collection has been beautifully photographed by the lovely Renee from NFE Design.

Thank you so much Renee!

The winter range will be in store and online end on next month.

(If you would like to see all the photo's and items from the winter collection have a look here)

The gorgeous ribbon wands used in this photo shoot are from Pinwheels and Pearls and the lovely crochet hair accessories are from Madeliefke.

The beautiful felt appliques are made by applicatie-en-zo.

Thanks Rose!

Winter Collection

We are back from a very long holiday to our lovely home country, The Netherlands and Vietnam. Spending our Christmas days in the snow was just wonderful and gave me some inspiration for winter. As it is hard to get inspiration for warm winter clothing in 40 degrees.. haha.. Also Vietnam has been a wonderful source of inspiration especially SaPa, a mountain village in the north of Vietnam where traditional clothing show bright splashes of colour. All that folk clothing and having just been back to Europe, plus singing the Sound of Music's do re mi song to Rose every night when she goes to bed, made me think of the 'leather hose'!
So for the coming winter collection I have found my inspiration in folk clothing and the Sound of Music.
The collection will (hopefully) be ready in March

Collection on Madeit!

Little Rose Summer Launch at Willows

The little rose fashion show at Willows was great! The shop was beautifully decorated with flowers and there was lots of jummy party food.

Back stage all the girls (and boy of course!) put on their pretty clothes with matching hair pretties by lulufroufrou and some lovely corsages I made the day before.

The girls were happy jumping up for their balloons and filling their hart shaped pockets with lollies and fairy bread.

Thank you girls!

Thanks Mary for the lovely pictures!

The little rose summer clothing and hair pretties from lulufroufrou will be online soon!
