Earlier this week, a little yellow fellow with big shiny black eyes and a tummy full of spots gave me smile. He lives in Lithuania with designer Gabriele, but he’s willing to travel. Anywhere in the world! He joins us today with a bunch of his yellow and black friends. Some are bumble bees, some are penguins, and some are just adding a splash of colour to their ebony threads.

Here at {KID} independent we’re long time fans of Sophie & Lili and their lovely range of dolls. Today I’m here to give you the inside scoop on a brand new edition to the collection, BABY dolls. You can pre-order one today for a very reasonable $20 and can choose from 4 styles, Lili Lili (brown hair), Sophie (blonde), Olive (redhead) & Josie (with beautiful brown skin).

Sophie & Lili BABY dolls measure approx. 8″ and are handmade from 100% cotton with a complementary fabric backing. The BABY range is small in size than the existing Sophie & Lili range and are especially lovely for the littlest members of your family.
