My Friend La Toriana

www.latoriana.com.au

I would love to introduce to you a wonderful friend I have made online – Elizabeth from La Toriana. Elizabeth lives in rural Bendigo and has been online around the same time as Charlipop Kids. Here I would like to take a few moments to introduce some of my personal favourite products of her range. She has a particular interest in showcasing some of the best Australian and New Zealand products and clothing on the market. And we are certain you will adore her ranges! So take a moment and drop in for a visit at www.latoriana.com.au – you thought Charlipops had great customer service? I learnt what I do from Elizabeth! You’ll just have to see for yourself!

 

Tea Princess

I have admired this brand from afar – there is something of the delicate fabrics that takes me back in time. I think the photos speak for themselves:

Tikiboo Kids

 ”Fairyland Magic” Collection designer girls Play Set -  gorgeous set by another Aussie designer, Tikiboo Kids!

 

 

Three Little Trees

Three Little Trees is a delightful brand new to La Toriana, and designed in Australia. They have a distinct flavour to them – with retro and smart prints but with a time-gone-by look about them. Here are a few of La Toriana’s range this season:

A Geisha Dress by Three Little Trees

 

Sushi Duffle Coat by Three LIttle Trees

 

Unique to Three Little Trees – each garment also comes with a packet of seeds, to grow and help the environment. What an awesome idea!! I am personally pretty taken by this stunning range! And I especially love the cause.

 

La Toriana’s Story

Elizabeth has a heart-wrenching story, and I can’t tell you about her without sharing a little about how special the name and logo of her design is. You can read more about her story here: http://latoriana.com.au/blog/2008/07/ and here: http://latoriana.com.au/blog/?s=premature (scroll down the the La Toriana logo). I didn’t want to quote too much as I’d love to read for yourself, but here is a small snippet:

‘For many who dont know, La Toriana is made up of our 3 daughters names…. 2 of whom were born premature and now are our angels, and one… who is a very special premmie girl too, who is now 6 years old.  Our logo is of 2 angels and a baby…. we are all together.’

Elizabeth, I hope we can be friends for life, as both of our stores continue on a journey into the unknown. I have enjoyed chatting with you – and hope through this blog a few more people will meet the wonderful you! xx Kat
