The three of us (plus two babies!) met up in Paris last weekend to attend another Playtime tradeshow. It was a beautiful, sunny (hot even!) weekend and the three of us had so much fun together. On Saturday we walked around Paris until the sun went down and the babies got tired. It was the perfect summery day in Paris! On Sunday we attended Playtime and, as usual, we were so inspired by the many great brands we saw — lots of old favourites, and a few new discoveries too! Here’s a brief recap in photos:

• Aymara – Beautiful knitwear in a rainbow of cool colours!
• Nobodinoz – A vibrant collection of toys, cushions, decorations and really cool animal backpacks.
• Seesaw – A new-to-us brand featuring geometric designs and easy-to-wear silhouettes.
