55 Degrees North
55 Degrees North is a boutique online children’s store specialising in clothing and footwear hand picked from the quality choices Danish fashion has to offer.
After living in Denmark for 2 years, returning to Australia and the birth of her daughter, Owner Vanessa Simonsen was surprised to find that she was not able to purchase the high quality, simplistic, trendy and beautiful clothing that was available in Denmark, especially those pieces and brands that the young Prince and Princess of Denmark were wearing.
55 Degrees North was established and launched in June 2010. After researching brands and pieces, a select few were chosen “I believe that when our customers purchase from us and see the actual quality of clothing they will definitely come back and visit” said Vanessa.
As 55 Degrees North grows they are heading away from their original choices of high street brands and instead want to give their customers something different, a feeling of shopping at a Children's Clothing Boutique similar to those that can be found in Copenhagen. This means that the range will be even more select and you will see the best Danish has to offer from Retro to Royal.

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

I think by now you guys know that i like to support women in business that are bringing about positive change in their own way.
This week meet one of those inspiring woman Sarah Drysdale an Australian
living in Mumbai
cornflowerblue was founded by director Sarah Drysdale, who divides her time between Australia and India. Sarah began daydreaming of cornflowerblue after chatting with girlfriends in Mumbai about the lack of pretty, girlie clothes that are affordable and in the next breath... organic. This set Sarah off on an adventure, armed with the designs for her first collection, to find who made the most beautiful organic clothes in India. Sarah soon evolved the concept of cornflowerblue to include stocking other fabulous organic and fair labels from around the world.
Sarah based the idea for cornflowerblue on the belief that no matter what business we are in, we have a responsibility to care and to know about the impact we are having on our planet and the people who live here.
cornflowerblue gives Sarah the opportunity to combine her love of fashion and design with her unique charity work and her care for the planet.
“I have witnessed first hand the environmental degradation in developing nations as they try to keep pace with the demand to produce goods for the developed world. My family has walked in the slums of India, driven through farmland craving water and in need of better farming practices and breathed the polluted air of Hong Kong and South East China.
We all have a role to play; we can all bring about change in this world simply by demanding that goods be made in people and planet friendly ways.
I am lucky to have the opportunity to show children and women in the developing world that people do care. I love educating children so they don’t end up being one of 300,000 child laborers that are estimated to work in the Indian cotton fields. I enjoy handing out business starter packs to new beauticians living in the slums as they eagerly venture out to start their new business. I love seeing children wearing organic clothes that are kind on their skin and kind on our planet.
Like most mums, I have a soft spot for fashion and I love seeing my girls dressed up. My dream is for cornflowerblue to showcase fabulous fashion so that every child can look gorgeous. The desire is in everyone’s heart to see children, women and our planet protected.
“ Please support cornflowerblue so together we can show that fashion can be stylish while being planet and people friendly.”
Sarah Drysdale
Cornflower Blue are also stockists of the Fabulous Nanny Pickle , Eternal Creation, Cheeky Chickies and Eco Peko.
Go to www.cornflowerblue.com.au to take a look at the many ways cornflower blue are helping to make the world a truly better place.
Its inspired reading . Shop online at Cornflower blue and $1 from every
