Suitable for a boy or girl the gorgeous Cremino tank above would truly be a wonderful addition to your child's wardrobe.

Stellina Baby was established by Stella Antoine and her husband after the birth of their first child and inspired by a favourite shops in the little Southern Italian town of Caserta, where Stella grew up - the old fashioned little sweet shop was full of wonders. Jars of all colours and shapes contained the most unusual sweets (Violetta was my favourite, a Parma Violet Sugar sweet with the most delicious flowery flavour, in the softest shade of lilac).

Wonderful baby clothing ranges are made with supreme softness in mind and will serve as the perfect luxury baby gifts for a christening or for a 1st birthday or simply to spoil your little treasure with luxury cashmere clothing.

Every Little Helps !

Since joining twitter I have made some amazing "cyber friends" . Often people you never actually meet become like members of your own family.  A few weeks ago I had the real pleasure of meeting a few of my twitter pals at the ToysRus Tea party.  One of those lovely ladies was the gorgeous, bubbly Emma (AdventuresEM on twitter) who blogs at Adventures of an English mum    

There has been some "discussion" recently regarding bloggers who review products and do giveaways, which I must admit upset me a little, but I don't get involved in these debates as I consider it a no win situation and anyway I am old enough to know its each to their own in this World and you are unlikely to change someone elses opinion!  so when Emma nominated me to receive a "uniform pack" from Tesco I was truly thrilled !  Although I sell "Designer Brands" for my business, I buy direct from America, sell them heavily discounted and make very little profit, but it allows me to work from home and be there for my children.  Our family is on a very tight budget and if you read my post   Who would you put on the naughty step      you will know that we have a very long way to go before we could afford to be proud and turn down such a wonderful opportunity!

So Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Emma and Tesco We really appreciate your wonderful gift!  This is one I won't be giving away !

Here's what we received a big black box packed full of Polo shirts, trousers, shirts, stationary and to top it off a £30 clothing voucher for me (see what I spent it on SOON - YIPEE) :
