CLB ♥ Peter Rabbit for Gap

Peter Rabbit rabbit ears hat, £7.95


CLB nipped into BabyGap last week to take a peek at the new range inspired by Beatrix Potter's most beloved character, Peter Rabbit. The Oxford Street flagship store (opposite Bond St tube station) has the entire range for boys and girls stocked on the lower ground floor, all beautifully merchandised with giant Peter Rabbit cardboard cut-outs. What a treat it was: babygros with classic Peter Rabbit illustrations, old-fashioned checked summer dresses, Jemima Puddle-duck hats and cute polka-dot skinny jeans. So lovely in fact, that we wanted to buy the entire collection. It's in store until stock runs out (they estimate about a month) so don't miss out. Price from £7.95 for a hat at Gap.

Maclaren Nursery Furniture by David Netto at Harrods

The Cabine crib and changer

We Brit mums associate Maclaren with the trusty, take-everywhere Maclaren buggy, but did you know they do some rather stylish nursery furniture too? CLB had a morning appointment with charming LA-based interior designer David Netto in Harrods' glorious baby department. Spurred on by the birth of his first child in 2001, Netto launched his own range of super-chic nursery furniture which Maclaren have now bought into. 'I went shopping for cribs for our modern house in LA and I was scandalised,' he tells CLB. 'There was no modernism, no luxury and nothing to fall in love with...I decided to remedy this.' That he has certainly done; his new designs include a range of sleek, modern cots, changing tables and nursery accessories aimed at style-conscious parents everywhere (cribs are upwards of £1,000). Available in two colourways: the 'Moderne' range features ebony stained ash with white lacquer while the 'Cabine' range arrives in natural oak also with the signature white lacquer. Netto will be available in store for nursery design consultations this Saturday and Sunday. Go get his expert advice while you can.
