Happy Birthday AGOO!

Agoo Australia is celebrating their first birthday - and are giving away $2500 worth of gifts!
Agoo® is uniquely styled athletic wear for urban kids. It is functional, fashionable and makes being a kid a lot more fun. It is not cutesy or cartoony. It is what you would wear yourself, comfortable and chic, but for kids on the move living healthy lifestyles. Our key component is our fabrics. They contain a strong UV protected finish, blocking out any harmful ultra violet rays. No matter how many times you wash it or expose it to sunlight or saltwater, the protection is always there.

First of all, if you purchase any Agoo product online or from a participating stockist, you will go into the draw to win one of the prizes from the $1000 prize pool.

A Serene Space

When I discovered that Lee from Krisp Photography had been to visit my beautiful friend and new Mum, Rebecca, you bet I was excited!
During her pregnancy we knew this little one was a pinkie, and her excited Mum shared some snippets of her purchases and nursery, so I was so thrilled to finally see these photos - complete with the most precious baby girl!

Rebecca made me laugh, and nod, when I read her facebook status - "having a daughter was always going to be bad for the Credit Card". So very true!

Lee and Rebecca have graciously allowed me to share these photos with you. Please do not repost without permission.







The following images were taken by the proud Mama...
