Billieblush Dubai | One of Sofia’s favourite clothing brand.

Billieblush Dubai | Summer is fast approaching and Sofia and I were lucky enough to be introduced to a lovely brand called Billieblush, and having had a look at it’s Spring Summer collection we are both hooked.  This is Sofia’s mood board that she put together herself, and it looks like the perfect wardrobe for our family’s summer holiday.

The clothes are designed with children in mind, but parents will be happy that the clothes are stylish too especially if we have strong headed children who insist on dressing themselves, and the results are not always what we hope for (I am sure most mothers have a story of what their kids chose to wear to the birthday party).  With these clothes you can mix and match them, and still look cute whilst wearing age-appropriate fashion.

The brand is a fabulous fun girls wear brand that offers pet-a-porter fashion at affordable prices.  The new collection has enough sparkles and lace to keep all girls happy.  They have thoughtfully designed t-shirts, leggings and dresses that Sofia struggled to narrow her selection to just these items as her favourite items from Billieblush.  Sofia’s sequin t-shirt cost retails in the UK for around GBP18, and a dress costs from GBP30 and up.  They are great outfits for children to wear to birthday parties as well as being great to give as birthday gifts for children and family.  Most importantly, Sofia thinks the clothes are comfortable.  (What a relief)

WE’RE GOING ON A BEAR HUNT comes to the UAE

 Dubai | When: 1st to 4th March | Location: Madinat Theatre

 Abu Dhabi | When: 7th March | Location: Abu Dhabi Theatre

Art For All is delighted to announce that we will be bringing smash-hit children’s stage show, We’re Going On A Bear Hunt, to the UAE in early March 2016. Performed by the Kenny Wax theatre company, the much-loved theatre production springs straight from the pages of Michael Rosen’s award-winning book, and has been brought to life on stage by acclaimed theatre director Sally Cookson.

This captivating story centres around a father and his four children, as they embark on a traditional bear hunt. After scampering through grassy meadows and wading through rivers and caves, the family finally come across a real bear, which promptly chases them away, despite their famous chorus line of, ‘We’re not scared!’

Hilariously funny and interactive, this enchanting show also features a fantastic musical score by Benji Bower. A fun-filled family experience, We’re Going On A Bear Hunt will captivate children and adults alike.

 *Suitable for children aged 3+. Running time: 55 minutes
