Online children’s boutique Minifashionista is different by choice. You won’t find any flouncy buttons & bows here – just the coolest and hippest gear for children 0-8 years.
In March 2007, Shannon Fewings-Hall, owner of Minifashionista set out to create a groovy online store especially for shoppers wanting something funky and unique. Their range, which includes clothing, toys, gifts and accessories, has been sourced from near and far. You’ll find a great range of designer brands including Polka Kids, Small Paul by Paul Frank, egg by Susan Lazar (US), No Added Sugar (London) and Little Chipipi.
Minifashionista also prides itself on providing excellent customer service. ‘It’s all about the customer for us. If the customer is happy, then so are we’ explains Shannon. ‘Having 3 children of my own has helped me understand how busy mums are these days – if there’s anything that we can do to make their shopping experience easier, then we will’.
Minifashionista is open 24 hours a day, all year round. They offer complimentary gift wrapping and have a user-friendly return/exchange policy. International orders are welcome.

Polka lovers will love this! We have a fresh new online retailer to get all your Polka gear – find it here www.littlepinwheel.com.au. Store owner Hayley Blease draws on her varied and extensive fashion industry career experience, and skills as a graphic designer – combined with her obvious style and passion for all things gorgeous…She’s delightful to deal with, and her excitable enthusiasm is absolutely infectious! We love the new store Hayley! Well Done!

These shots below are from Hayley’s Blog; (click here to visit it) How gorgeous is her daughter Keely in the Science of Me Tracksuit, and her son Taj in the TV Test Pattern Blankie.

Little Pinwheel is a children’s online boutique offering fun, hip and modern clothes for girls, boys and babies.The labels we carry are mostly showcased from Australian Designers and they range from beautiful pieces to your every day fun streetwear clothes.
Before having my two beautiful children, Keely and Taj, I dreamt of opening a children’s boutique. When I had Keely I found it really difficult to find beautiful clothes for her. Once I had Taj I realised that it is just as hard, if not harder to find great boys clothes.
With this in mind and my experience in fashion I thought I had to finally do my children’s boutique to help other mothers dress their children. I really wanted to make sure that I supported Australian Designers as I feel we have some great existing and up and coming creative people in this country.
I have been on every side of fashion, from being a Buyer, being involved in Production to being a Sales Rep and with all of this experience I am forever trying to source beautiful new products to add to my online store. If you know of any labels that you think I should stock then please contact us and I will do my best to get them online.
My future dream is to be an online store that opens the door to the up and coming designers we have, in clothing or accessories. This is just the beginning of an exciting future for Little Pinwheel!
Little Pinwheel is for playful and free spirited little people!

This online boutique is the happy result of many not so happy shopping sessions that I have experienced. I was sick of traipsing around all day trying to pull together a unique gift for a new arrival, birthday party or baby shower!
In my “other life” as a magazine stylist, I also struggled to find interesting things for bubs and kids to include in magazine spreads. I discovered through extensive research both here in Australia and overseas that the great ranges and cool stuff did exist – but that I had to spend hours wading through the boring stuff (cartoon character t-shirts and lemon coloured jumpsuits) to find them.
I decided not to let the many hours shopping and researching be in vain. Baby’s Got Style online boutique was launched in October 2004.
Baby’s Got Style is gift shopping for stylish people who don’t have children and wouldn’t know where to start shopping for gorgeous things for one, and for mums and dads with little ones who want something a bit unique, fun and fabulous to dress their bambino in. We bring together the most gorgeous baby clothes, gifts and accessories under one virtual roof for ease of shopping.
I hope it will take the stress out and put the style back in to shopping for your little style setter (or someone else’s!)!
Wishing you happy shopping,
Daniela Minns (nee Gregg)

These days everything that we do revolves around family. Whether it be our two beautiful daughters Gia and Dillon, our relatives, or our vast network of loved and cherished extended family we are never not surrounded by amazing people that we have so much love for. There is a little bit of each of them in everything that we do and they inspire and enlighten us on a daily basis.
The other all consuming part of our life is our business. In the past two and a half years it has grown up with our family, and we have come to look at it as our delinquent child. One that doesn’t really like to sleep much, never does as it’s told, and is still yet to be toilet trained. But amongst all of the trials and tribulations there have also been rewarding moments and proud occasions.
Our store is very much a reflection of our personal style, we sell things that we like, our kids like and our friends like. And with a team like that we can only hope that you, our customers, will like it too. We try to keep things as fresh as possible and are constantly traveling overseas, scouring the net and speaking to contacts and associates to keep one step ahead. Our customers have often been a great source for fantastic new products also, so if there is something you like that you feel we should stock please drop us a line.
Expect to see constant changes from us, as our delinquent child grows up and starts to walk on its own, as our own personal taste changes and evolves and as our experiences with our kids broaden through the coming stages of their development. Check back to the site often and keep an eye out for subtle changes in functionality, new features and a constant flow of fresh new product. Again if you think that there is something we could be doing better or a feature that you think would make your time online with us more pleasant please let us know.
Our store and our website operate independently, there are items for sale online that are not in our store and vice versa. So if you are ever in the neighborhood drop in a say hi we would love to see you in person.
Welcome to our family, we hope you like it.
Luke, Lauren, Gia & Dillon.
