The Launch is coming soon finally......................

Welcome to the first Cubs Kidswear blog. My name is Victoria, Vicky, Vic, Mum, Oi amongst other names I've come to be known as so pick one anyone or feel free to make up your own........

I have created a range of tots clothing, not dictated by the various trends. I hope you will find my creations practical, fun and affordable.

First and foremost practical cute little front pleated wide leg jeans minus the 30 pockets you find on kids pants now a days, what does a 3 year old need pockets for when they have mums Mary Poppins bag to fill with sweet wrappers, half sucked Jammie Dodgers and a crushed snail plus they are a total pain to iron.

Simply cute!

My straps are elastic, tied, button or pop fastened, theres is nothing more annoying than pulling straps up all day when there is twirling around and jumping off walls to be done! I'm sure dad will appreciate not having to do up 27 tiny buttons whilst wrestling a 2 year old from dancing to the Comfort advert!

Click and Go!

I have reversible dresses from SeeSaw which are just great, when Lady Ella decides her spaghetti hoops look better trickling down the front of her posh frock its ok, arms up, dress off, turn it inside out and hey presto new dress and the spaghetti art work is hidden on the inside. I think its also great for holidays, 2 dresses in one brilliant.

Flip and go!

I managed to track down a really unusual and fantastic quality collection of cotton hand knitted Peruvian dresses and separates, cooler and less bulky than wool, a perfect spring/summer staple, can be worn alone or teamed with a little t-shirt and tights to warm it up just stunning and so unusual.

I have chosen to use organic cotton for my basics not to be an eco snob but because it is so soft and snuggly, you can really tell the difference and with gorgeous designs from Piccalilly it really is worth the extra. I have some white babygrows for my son, some ordinary cotton and some organic cotton and after being washed to within an inch of their life I must say the organic have stayed really soft and kept great shape.

Kimono style bodysuit

I've also sourced the cutest accessories to compliment the range including:

Fruity hair accessories from Balloon Bijoux

Trendy Hair Accessories by new company Goosey Goosey Gander

The fabulous BabyLegs, just brilliant they fit from 0 to 10 years and apart from looking great they are a fantastic alternative to tights, a god send for nappy changing time, protect little knees when crawing about the list goes on and you will want every design I promise....

Toasty, warm, reconditioned cashmere baby booties from Baby Davis, come in a massive choice of colours and are eco friendly to boot.

A fashion favourite of Vogues editor.

New brand Generation Baby have the most stylist baby changing accessories

A range of super cute baby shoes by JouJoux I want them all!

................and not forgetting my range Cubs Paws, handmade felt mary janes and boots for the tots. Soft as to not restrict growing wriggly feet, warm yet breathable and most importantly cute as a button (well not most important but it helps). You can choose from a premade range or design your own custom pair, choose from over 40 colours and tonnes of embellishments , they make such an awesome gift and starting from £10 quid you will probably want hundreds.

Baby Lady Bug

For the twirly fairy's among us I make a great range of tutus for party girls, dancing shows, flower girls and bridesmaids (great for your budget plus little princess gets to keep it) or just plain old fairy fun in the back garden. I can make your tutu in a choice of over 30 colours and embellish with a whole host of glizt and glam.

My tutus look great teamed with a sweet t-shirt, little cardigan, a pair of bablylegs and some killer shoes for a great party look.

I make them from 0 upto 6 years

Excellent present for babies first birthday image the pictures!

I update the store on a weekly basis and soon if I haven't developed RSI in the meantime I will have a range of funky lounge wear (pixie hoodies, sloppy monkey pants that sort of thing) and the boys will get to look funky too with their own Cubs togs.

So I hope you come along for a visit, I have been working immensely hard for you lot and I will try and keep up with this blog, giving you sneaky peeks at new stuff and a general insight into the life of a sewing machine slave/mum ahem Entrepreneur.
