Kimonos for Kids!

I think that these kimonos that we are going to be offering are so beautiful! The fabric choices are so pretty and luxurious! I can see the kimono look becoming a huge trend for kids. They are easy to put on for the parents, and comfortable for the kids. And just so unique! We will be offering these in four sizes for both boys and girls. I am already picturing my little girl in one with some leggings underneath. They can definitely be worn alone, as a swim cover-up, or even with jeans. Many of the patterns are Asian-inspired, and they all have a great attention to detail. The price will range from $28 to $49 depending on the size. Each kimono size covers two regular sizes; so you can definitely get a lot of wear from them. I always like something that is unique and beautiful, but a great deal at the same time.

Don’t forget to enter our drawing for the new Ipod Shuffle. Information can be found in the Ipod post below. Also, don’t forget about our grand opening on December 5th. It’s right around the corner! Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

Tutu Cute!

I have an almost 2 year old and I so want to get her in a tutu! Tutus are just plain adorable. I have seen little girls wearing them with tights, with jeans, for dance class…you name it. Heck, if I could wear a tutu, I would! At London-Jack.com we are going to be offering the sweetest handmade tutus. They come in blue, pink, yellow, green, and purple, and they are all made of tulle. Classic. They are approximately 12 inches long and the waistband stretches to fit from size 2T-8. They will retail for $14. Isn’t that amazing! Even though the size says the smallest it will fit is 2T, I would not hesitate to buy one for a baby to take pictures in. I have friends that have gotten infant pictures taken in tutus, and they are so cute. I really wish I had thought of it. And just think…they wouldn’t outgrow it in a month! Don’t forget—the grand opening of London-Jack.com is December 5th. Mark your calendars!

Grand Opening Giveaway!

The grand opening of London-Jack.com is soon approaching, and we are so excited about it! We want to give all of you the chance to win a great prize on December 5th. One lucky winner will receive the brand new version of the iPod Shuffle. What’s so cool about the iPod shuffle, you ask? The iPod Shuffle is the world’s smallest music player. The controls for this iPod are conveniently located on the right earphone cord. Although the iPod comes with the easy-access controls, it is also compatible with headphones from manufacturers like Scosche, Klipsch, V-MODA, and Belkin. This new iPod Shuffle has a feature called VoiceOver. If you are listening to a song and you want to know the title or artist, you simply push a button and a VoiceOver can tell you. VoiceOver speaks 20 different languages, so it can tell you song titles and artists in the correct languages. The iPod Shuffle makes it easy to sync with playlists on your computer to create the perfect mood for your activity. VoiceOver can tell you the name of each playlist, so you can switch between them without even looking. The iPod Shuffle is easy to use. The one switch has three positions. Flip it to the left to hear your music in a random way. Flip it to the middle to hear your songs in order, and flip to the right to turn it off. It’s that simple! If you are the lucky winner of the new iPod Shuffle, you will receive a 2GB black iPod Shuffle, earphones with remote, the iPod Shuffle USB cable, and a Quick Start guide. Here’s what it looks like!

Entering the contest is easy! All you have to do is e-mail your name and phone number to contact@london-jack.com. Please note that we are only allowing one entry per person. There will be a drawing on December 5th (opening day!!) at 5:00 pm CST. The winner will be called with the good news! This is a great prize because even if you already have an iPod, this will make a great gift for someone you love, or a great upgrade for yourself. Happy entering!

Ponytail Holders and Clips. . .So cute!

Between now and the big webstore launch on December 5th, I’m going to be introducing some of the products we are going to be offering at London-Jack.com.
The first are some adorable clips and ponytail holders that are all handmade. If you are like me, then hair accessories for your little girls are a must. The moment my daughter’s hair was long enough to even consider putting a bow in it, I made it happen! We are going to be offering beautiful flower clips and ponytail holders. The clips are specifically alligator clips that are covered in ribbon and decorated with a felt or crocheted flower. There are a variety of colors and textures. Alligator clips are wonderful for all ages, but they work especially well for little girls who may not have enough hair to pull into a ponytail yet. The ribbon-covered clip helps hold the clip in place on fine or thin hair. The ponytail holders are covered bands with the flowers secured to them. They are really pretty and classic looking. The covered bands mean that they won’t catch and pull your little one’s hair. The attention to detail on these accessories is sure to impress. Something else that is sure to impress is the price. These run around five to six dollars. So reasonable for something so cute and unique! I can’t wait for you to check these out at London-Jack.com starting on December 5th.

Welcome to London-Jack's Blog!

Welcome to London-Jack.com--cool clothes for cool kids! We are Paul & Ginger Cookson. We started London-Jack because we wanted to be able to showcase many of the smaller manufacturers of children’s clothing and accessories that have cool stuff but aren’t as widely known across the U.S. We have a very eclectic style, so we wanted to bring together items that are unique, for various reasons, and cannot be found in a typical department store. Our webstore will be launching December 5th! www.london-jack.com
