My hairdresser is due in a couple of months and I want to give her a little gift for the new addition. I am having a lot of trouble finding something appropriate for her though. She's kinda rockabilly x grungy x Fitzroy chic (those that live in Melbourne). She is so funky, a simple romper just wouldn't cut it.

I found some great little baby Vans on ebay but lost the auction. I also found a website from the US that sells some very cool baby gear but the postage was way too much. (They had Pixies tees for babies - AWESOME!) My budget is max $30.

Any advice on where I could look either online or IRL in Melbourne would be much appreciated.

Not sure if this site is cool enough but have a look...

Here:

http://www.rockyourbaby.com/

babysgotstyle.com.au ?

Just had a quick look and Dunns of Sweden have some funky stuff.

Great suggestions all. Thanks so much!





OMG! They have Sid n Nancy tees - very tempted to grab one of those. Is it wrong for a baby to wear Sid n Nancy?

Not wrong at all, because the people who would actually get their noses out of joint probably wouldn't know who they are anyway

Did you see this one in the clearance section?

I was coming in to suggest Rockyourbaby too, very funky adorable stuff!

Yes, I did. What size should I buy?




Then I thank you greatly as well. Almost wish I had a bub again just so I can buy more of the cool stuff.

When is she due? T-shirts like that are a PITA on tny newborns, I'd suggest maybe a 00, by that stage they are robust enough that you can squeeze them into the head and arm holes

If it's wrong, I don't want to be right.

I'll second www.babysgotstyle.com.au

They have oobi, rock your baby etc and do overnight postage.

Awesome! Thanks for the tips on a site and on sizes - you're a gem!

Love this store, they custom make as well.

Baby goes Retro have some cool funky stuff : http://www.babygoesretro.com.au/

Also, Frock You http://www.frockyou.com.au. The best thing with Frock You is that they have free express postage.

I also second the other sites that people have suggested - have used them all before and been very pleased.

My poor brilliant mind had a momentary lapse and it took me a few reads to work out whether this was pro or neg the tee. Love it!

I love Rock Your Baby! My flower girls wore black RYB dresses and my nephew the faux tuxedo t-shirt to our wedding

They are my go to for being the indulgent Auntie or friend who buys totally impractical but cool clothes.

A couple more:

OMG rock your baby is fantastic... I NEED to know what sex this baby is so I can start buying in earnest!

Nawww, I so envy you right now!


Thanks again everyone. I feel spoilt for choice now which is a much better place than where I was yesterday.

Sooooooo cool!

Another good online store is www.cradlerock.com.au or for funky toys and gadgets etc try www.littlewagon.com.au

Earlier today I ordered some tshirts from rockyourbaby. I got the cowboys and indians, retro badges and happy camper (highly ironic given his mood this morning.)

If you're into organic clothing I have made a few purchases from this store. They have a clearance section too. I hope my link works.

recently a friend of mine had a baby (my hairdressing trainer), and another hairdresser gave her a brush and comb set with the babys name engraved on it. Its not cool, but you might be able to find something retro she would like.,

A brush and comb set is neither here nor there but for a hairdresser they would love that!

You might also want to check out MyCuteBaby. They have some great European brands that are really cool.

Cradle Rock are in Port Melbourne if you wanted to see things IRL.

A pair of baby converse all star chuck taylor sneakers would be awesome I think you can pick then up for around $30 and they come in black, white or pink. I'm thinking of getting a pair for a friend of mine who is having a her bub in October
