Yup, this is what you think it is. The same one you used in 1988 to spell out your name and chuck it on the inside of things that didn't need your name on it. Like the dogs collar, or your 
brother's grade 2 text book.  
The motex label maker is back. Slightly more frivolous this time around perhaps, but isn't cuteness always less practical?

And what would one possibly want with such a properly retro device in 2013?

glad you asked...















Label Makers, $20 (have they gone up at ALL since the 80's?). 
comes with tape.

winter rhapsody


nothing spells out winter in Melbourne like merino. (ok and friday night footy. and maybe MIFF). at the heart of  theViktoria and Woods range are their signature merino knits, but the offerings from these mainstays of classic attire just get cooler with every passing season. the entire range possesses a transeasonality and timelessness that will please you greatly year after year.

here is just a tad of what got hung on the racks today...




Bristol top, $239
Cyprus mini, $189



calypso coat, $479



maine long sleeve top, $179



abel hardware sweater, $279



babylon crew, $269


we also have a limited range of soft cardigans and warm layering pieces in easy colour ways to see you through the frosty days and nights.

Mothers; sometimes the angel, sometimes the devil.
well folks, that second sunday in May creeps around pretty quick, and in the rush to acquire the perfect gift (whilst simultaneously remembering gifts given in previous years so as to not perform a repeat gifting error, or RGE), get the card, make it to lunch on time, and not start any major bickerfests coz its Sunday and thus not really a day we are dying to spend with the 'rents -
I think we often overlook the essence of what the day is about - we are here because of her and that makes her pretty awesome. hopefully we have turned out to be a relatively well rounded and respectable lass or fellow, with reasonably good personal hygiene standards and socially acceptable table manners.

the lead up to easter is always a bit anxiety ridden. everywhere you go - bank, supermarket, post office - the queues are out the door, what with everyone bunkering down for the weekend.
we at the lulu's have the good sense to know that there's never a bad time
to go shopping. and what's a better day-off-work activity than cruising down to the shops? we reckon do a sleep in, (practise some religion?), relax, and come down to carlisle and say hi!
we'll be unloading box after box of awesome new clothing and pressies for big kids and littl'ies.  
 
good friday: 10-5
easter saturday: 10-5.30
easter sunday: 12-5
easter monday: 11-5 
 
happy long weekend XX

What would we wear if we were aged somewhere between brand new and big kid? Minti, obvs.
Genuinely cool gear for little dudes is the signature of this brand, and now that winter has finally (kinda) hit, it's time to get some sleeves on your mini me.
