Baby Boom Nautical Style Edit!

We are in a patriotic mood at PacaPod HQ because this spring sees the start of the Olympic baby boom caused by all the excitement and euphoria of the games! We just love the classic combination of red white and blue and it’s a great excuse to celebrate Team GB all over again!

So why not go nautical with our stunning spring style edit? Just invest in a few key pieces and you’ll soon be working an effortless style – “oh this outfit? I just threw it together”.

All you need is this chic silhouette like this stripe dress from Mint Velvet (£79), statement red wedges from Boden (£99), or casual pumps and we love Vans from Asos (£37.50). Then throw on a cute coat rain coat we picked this Boden classic (£95.20) and our Mirano bag in chalk for a big nautical splash of Riviera chic (£99). Not just a pretty face, the Mirano has an oversized weekend style with an intelligent interior making it perfect for a day on the road with a small family in tow!

Now, we love our Mirano bag as much as the next person. But between you and me this popular style is getting a little too big for it’s boots*.

But who can blame it?! Having recently starred in the Independent and Baby & Me Magazine the Mirano's been feeling pretty good about itself.

The icing on the cake came this week in the form of OK! Magazine – turning to page 123 and spotting itself snuggling up to PacaPod fan Jo Whiley was enough to send the once-modest Mirano packing it’s bags and setting off for Hollywood stardom.

Send us a postcard when you get there, Mirano.

* Metaphorical boots. Real boots would be silly

Last weekend, as we sat soaking up the glorious sunshine, with the smell of barbeque filling the air, our minds drifted to dreams of holidays in far-off locations. For inspiration we turned to the travel section of Sunday’s Independent and lo and behold! We only spotted our very own Mirano!

Sitting merrily amongst some other fab products in the Top 10 Family Travel Gadgets, the Independent has described this classic changing bag as both clever & cunning! Not that we let that kind of talk go to our heads…

Amongst the glossy pages of this month’s Baby & Me magazine we spied our Mirano and Napier changing bags  – the answer to all packing dilemmas this summer!

The spotlight has been firmly on the Mirano Chalk this Spring, with it’s bright hues and ample size making it the perfect holiday companion.

The latest PacaPod fan to sing it’s praises is mum of two and blogger Heather – you can check our her review and marvel at her arty photos at http://sahmlovingit.blogspot.co.uk/

The PacaPod team are thrilled to introduce our latest arrival... Spacious, iconic and with a stylish mix of natural fabrics and leather, the Mirano looks set to make a lasting impression for 2012.  Available in classic Chalk to pre-order now, make it your 'must-have' bag for the new year! And don't despair we haven't forgotten your old favourites either - the Napier will be available in beautiful Duck Egg, while the Almora dazzles in Tomato!
