Weekending: Cargobikes and Soapboxracing

This weekend was all about sunshine and cool rides. I took the kids + 1 playdate on a trip around the old moats in Christiania, Copenhagen on Friday. It was the best start to the weekend with icecreams, dandelions and lots of sunshine.

On Saturday we drove up the coast to go to the cousins annual joint birthday party. Anton wanted to try out their new Pennyboard and fell and sprained his ancle really bad. Poor daddy! Worst thing about it though was that we had an important event the following day: The Volkswagen Annual Soap Box Race and he was supposed to be the fiery engine!

We had to ask granddad to come be our "Bob the Builder" and I had to step in as very slow replacement engine. Ella was the designated driver and this girl has the most incredible natural talent for racing and driving:-) Unfortunately my talents as engine didn't get us into the winning finals, but we did however, win the Cours d'Elegance for best style - YAY!

We celebrated our fab style with dinner at Papirøen in Copenhagen, at the Copehagen Streetkitchen place. I had the most amazing soft mexican tacos there, something I haven't been able to find here in Copenhagen before. We highly recommend a visit there. Lots of different food stands to choose from and sunshine and harbourlife for entertainment.

I hope you guys had a fab weekend too and went on exciting playful adventures.

Label Love: Reima

This weeks Label Love goes out to Reima. A company established in Finland in 1944, dedicated to dressing kids for outdoor play come rain, shine or even cherryblossom pink snow. We are big fans of Reimas dedication to making quality outdoor clothing that will withstand all kinds of childhood adventures, whether they be in warm sun, great big puddles or mountains of snow and even last long enough to be handed down for younger siblings, cousins or friends. 

Who wants to worry about getting soaked when happily dancing in the rain?  Reima has spent 70 years perfecting their designs and ensuring that the clothes they produce are of the highest quality and the real-world testing of Reima garments is carried out by the world’s most frank and ruthless test team: kids themselves.

Last week the cherryblossom tree next door shed all of it's pink fluffyness and I simply couldn't resist all this pink loveliness, so Ella and I dived into the pinkness and paid our gratitudes to this ephemeral beauty that makes us all swoon every year come Spring.

According to Ella the jacket she is wearing is the perfect Spring jacket, mainly because it is pink and she's 6, so anything in that colour AND with a heartprint is a guaranteed winner. Being waterproof, windproof and in a breathable design it is easy for a mother to be convinced to buy the Tamesa Jacket too.

Enjoy & Happy Midweek

Label Love: Pierrot la Lune

Pierrot la Lune is a young Danish label, almost as young as Enfants Terribles Mag actually.
It's design is timeless and sophisticated, yet playful and informal. The colours are subdued and the classic stripes and beautiful floral prints bare resemblance of faded wallpapers or quilts from grandma’s attic - it simply provides a calm.
The main part of Pierrot la Lune collection is produced in organic, GOTS-certified cotton - which we love, respect very much and hope for more like that in the future.

the woman behind these stylish design are the very, very sweet Emilie Ventujol  and Kirsten Rickert have just done a beautiful interview with her over at her blog, definitely worth reading - find it here!
