Little Sous

For those of you with little aspiring chefs in your life, let me introduce you to my friend Kelly's fantastic new project, Little Sous.

Through their website, unique classes, and at-home education modules, Little Sous helps children become culinary adventurers who discover their natural talents and become intuitive cooks as they explore the world’s cultures through food.

Just yesterday they launched an  “early access” campaign for their first edition product—a creative cooking box subscription for kids. 

Check it out! 

This is such a new and fun way to get gets engaged in the kitchen! You can support their campaign here and you can follow Little Sous on Instagram and Facebook as well!

Products We Love

I love supporting friends and local businesses, so when I found out a good friend of ours was launching this Kick Starter campaign, I knew it was something I had to share.


OTTOLOCK is for every cyclist and outdoor enthusiast in your life! We already placed our order, and I can't wait for ours to arrive.

Even if you don't own a bike, how great would this be for a stroller? I've had a few friends have their strollers stolen off their porch, and the OTTOLOCK would totally prevent that!

Rebel Girls

I've only participate one Kick Starter campaign before. But, when I saw this video, I knew I had to help support this project.



 I can't wait to share these 100 stories about kick ass "rebel girls" with the Mini Fashionista.

Effortless Chic Morning to Night

Today I am sharing a designer I have known for a long time. We go back...all the way back to Middle School. Even then I could have told you that she would do something in fashion because she was by far the most fashion forward teen I knew. 

Our childhood friend, Trina Pierre, has a gorgeous clothing line based out of Seattle. The Trina Pierre Collection is a ready-to-wear line with a sophisticated and practical aesthetic made with washable and eco friendly fabric. Trina is an on-the-go mom, just like me, and many of our readers. Her clothes are classic and can be worn everyday, nearly anywhere. 

Trina recently launched a kickstarted campaign to fund her 2015 collection. She is offering all of her rewards at wholesale prices, and all rewards will arrive at your doorstep in time for Christmas.  

I would like the Simone Top and Andrea dress to arrive on my doorstep!

Designer Profile: Corilynn

I recently came across designer Corilynn when another blogger posted a picture of this dress on Instagram. Isn't it cute?

The Wiggle Dress $153

Corilynn's designs are classic, preppy and oh so cute! How can you not fall in love with her prints and timeless silhouettes?

She is currently running a campaign on Kickstarter to take her business to the next level. Check out the video.



And here are some of the goregous pieces you can get your hands on by supporting Corilynn.

Products We Love

If you have kids then you know how challenging it can be to find the "right cup". It seems like a simple task, but I feel as if I have bought every sippy cup, straw cup and water bottle on the market...all with the hopes of finding something spill proof and easy to use. 

When I saw this product, SipSnap lids, I knew I had to share! This product is GENIUS!

   

Their Kickstarter campaign ended earlier this week, and they raised %400 over their goal! I'm pretty sure this product is going to be in stores near all of us very, very soon! 

I'm sold! 

Proper Socks

Here at C&C we focus mostly on the ladies, but every now and again we like to think about the men in our lives too…as we all know many of them could use a little fashion advice!

Recently we were introduced to a fantastic company that mixes two of our favorite things, fashion and function. Say "hello" to Proper Socks…fashionable, functional and comfortable dress socks just for men!

The goal of Proper Socks is to bring ultimate comfort to your professional apparel.  They have specifically designed their dress socks to combine the latest in performance-running technology with fashion-forward style. LOVE it!

Both my +1 and Katie's have a pair and love them! Thanks to Dr. B for modeling them….love the coordinated tie and socks. Clearly this guy needs no fashion advice.

So, how can you get your hands on some of these fabulous socks for the men in you life? Proper Socks is in the final phases of bringing their product to mass market, and you can be at the forefront of it all by ordering your socks through their Kickstarter campaign. They just reached their funding goal, so now all orders are guaranteed!

I highly suggest the polka dots!
