Lily's tipi



Thanks to Nancy I got the chance to take a picture of Lily's tipi. What's funny is that I just realized that Tiger Lily is the name of the Indian Chief's daughter kidnapped by Hook in Disney's Peter Pan ... Of course she found it at Little Home and put her name on the waiting list ! Such a success this tipi.

Look Coco 13


Because Virginie told me that it was about time that I post a new Look Coco : here it is ! One of the reason why I have a problem following up with the Look Coco is that I keep bying clothes in Paris and I only want to show on my blog what you can find in Geneva. So here is an exception to my rules. Colette is wearing a top from La fiancé du Mékong - that I hope we will soon be able to find nearby because their prints are always a success. The skirt is an heavy coton marine blue from Petit Bateau. Et voilà !

SHOP Les enfants terribles






In addition to a great place where you can lunch or have a drink, by the olive tree towering majestically in the center of the room, Les enfants terribles is a good design shop. It presents a wide range of products, fine foods and design not specially made for kids but so inspiring. I selected a few ones but you should really visit the shop at least to enjoy that beautiful roof that opens for direct light and a light breeze :
Kikk posters are screen prints signed and numbered with rear support to make for easy hanging.
The Ball Chair by Finn Stone comes in a kid's size (50 cm vs 63 am for adults) and can be used indoors or out.
That bean bag sofa appeared to be very much kid's friendly.
Diesuper9 tee-shirts also feature a kids collection with their enigmatic list of names.
Royal VKB produce a curious peg puzzle dinner tray in melamine.

SHOP La Boutique Japonaise





This inconspicuous little shop established for thirty years at Rue Ancienne, Carouge - La Boutique Japonaise - is full of treasures for all : origami papers, dishes, charms, books and little japanese characters. Yet this season best seller is the kimono for kids. Such a unique outfit for your little one.
