We're polishing our shoes, straightening the seams in our polkadot tights, oh and whipping up the yummiest stuff on wheels for your delectation. Come and meet us there. We have a Baby Show blast each time. You can't miss us, just follow the bright beacon of Cosatto loveliness. We will be front of house too to meet n greet in our cheeky t-shirts with sweets to give away, (providing we don't eat them). So come along for fun, frolics, freebies, advice and more Cosatto joy than you can shake a lolly at. Be there or be frolic free. We'll be blogging as we go and revealing some backstage nonsense.

We’ve cranked up Cosatto colour-blocking a notch further this season, just to spell it out. Catwalks, feel free to follow suit.<br /><br />Tired of insipid dull pushchairs?

It’s a whole new person turning up on this planet. That is a big deal. Why would anyone hole baby up in drab dull tones? We wouldn’t dress little one in head to toe black, or design a steely grey nursery, so why the bleak pushchairs people? We want a carnival of colour to welcome little one. We love look-at-me bold brights that proclaim joyfully our precious new arrival. “Yo! I’m here”. This is the beautiful bursting beginning. Life is colour. You know it, Cosatto knows it and baby knows it. Here’s how:<br /><br />• “As color vision begins to develop, babies will see red first—they will see the full spectrum of colors by the time they reach three months of age.”<br /></span></span><a href="http://www.bausch.com/en_US/consumer/age/babies_eye_development.aspx"><span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;">http://www.bausch.com/en_US/consumer/age/babies_eye_development.aspx</span></a><span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"><br /><br />• “Infants start to develop the ability to see in colors very quickly. At one week after birth, they can see red, orange, yellow and green”.<br /></span><a href="http://www.allaboutvision.com/parents/infants.htm"><span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;">http://www.allaboutvision.com/parents/infants.htm</span></a><span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"><br /><br />Phew. Thanks Professor Cosatto (take off lab coats).<br /><br />But we see it more like this:<br /><br />• “I can jump higher in my red stockings….I like my red stockings the best”<br />Red is Best by Kathy Stinson<br /></span><a href="http://www.kathystinson.com/books/books-for-early-readers/red-is-best/"><span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;">http://www.kathystinson.com/books/books-for-early-readers/red-is-best/</span></a><span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"><br /><br />Colour is Cosatto’s raison d’etre.<br /><br />And now…it’s everywhere, on catwalks, high street, telly box thing, interiors…<br /><br />Let Cosatto lead the roll call of colour.<br /><br />We are reet excited about our yummy new colour-blocking, candy-tastic Yo! Strollers.<br /><br />With sizzling colours and a clashing ‘on trend’ palette, they are just so this season sweetie. We’re northern nursery know-alls, you know. We dig a vibrant bold palette we do. Finally, after season, upon season, of muted soft tones (yawn…) the catwalks have exploded with an uproar of colour. Yippee. Yo! is the supermodel of the Cosatto catwalk (and pavement). Sweetshop brights clash with candy craziness to set your morning stroll ablaze.

The problem is I really BELIEVE it is and think I should say now so people<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>looking for a good pushchair get to know too -that's what marketing is right? Sorry IF in the world of Twitter and blogging "selling” is a no no but I just can’t contain myself and you can take it or leave it right ?<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">So here goes….</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Of course as the Creative Director of Cosatto I believe in our products and am bound to push them but it wasn’t until last weekend when I met a bunch of the 20,000 or so expectant families at The Baby Show NEC that I realised just HOW GOOD a solution the Cosatto Cabi 3 in 1 Combi is for real life new parents.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">EASE OF USE</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Firstly, it would seem that most first time (and some second time) parents are very apprehensive about how easy a pushchair is to use. Particularly with a product that essentially has 3 different “modes” mums and dads are concerned about how easily they will be able to change over the modes and make sure that their precious new arrival is super comfortable at all times. The Cabi is impressive as all it modes: infant carrier, pram body and pushchair seat all attach on and off the chassis in the same way (with the flick of 2 little buttons) something that instantly puts new parents minds at rest.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Another key thing with the Cabi is that it the pushchair seat can face you when you want to keep an eye on junior or spend valuable time talking and bonding with them OR it can face forwards so they can watch the world go by as they get bigger and more nosey!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The reclining seat has 3 different positions and slides into position silently (so no accidentally waking baby) –as some reclines work on a noisy ratchet system this is great selling point!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">EASY FOLD</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">I thoroughly enjoy showing people the 3 step simple fold and absolutely brim with smugness as I clicked the chassis back into an upright position with a single flick of the wrist –they were AMAZED!!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">LIGHTWEIGHT CHASSIS & SLIMLINE FOLD</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">When people are buying a Combination pushchair it seems they almost expect a heavier bulkier chassis to come with the added functions –not with the Cabi!! Once folded I got them to feel just how light the frame was –how easy it would be to bung it in the boot or stash it into the rack on a bus or train. At 6kg it’s lighter than most simple umbrella fold buggies or strollers.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The Cabi will even fit into the boot of small cars such as the Fiesta and the Ka. It has VERY easily detachable wheels which not only makes the fold shorter it also means you can easily to clean the wheels AND gives you the option to stash them in a carrier bag and saves the boot from getting muddy.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">ACCESSORIES INCLUDED</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Most brands sell their pushchairs separately and this soon bumps up the overall spend for the customer! We include all the available accessories in the package so there’s no hidden costs for you.

Then when we explained how easy it is to fold and they saw the 1 second "flick" action unfold and how light it is (at 6kg less than most umbrella fold buggies) people were even more amazed!</div><div><br /></div><div>We went on to explain that the Cabi comes complete with Cosy Toes fleece backed chest pads to keep little one snug, a changing bag AND a raincover ( so no hidden extras) they were queuing up the aisles! </div><div><br /></div><div>We pride ourselves in producing cool, quirky, products "with personality" and are chuffed to bits that parents love our stuff as much as we do!!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div> </div>Vicky Morleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02314478231496068553noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3358508561191883939.post-34633702806920150842010-03-30T07:47:00.001-07:002010-03-30T07:55:19.249-07:00New Twin Buggy You2 "Bro & Sis Too"<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9fKOUkqTNOrc64pQwCqeoloosBx0VIYWfmTrc9XtV2ZmSjSEduDWlCTTayOR7O4ZLPWEuDzwI6dchW78uWf2MMD9Fw4QE3x00md9WNKpwA1E7KdkvccQ4nwzRNDQy37-K-pVztdn3NCs/s1600/you2_sis&brotoo_front.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 302px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9fKOUkqTNOrc64pQwCqeoloosBx0VIYWfmTrc9XtV2ZmSjSEduDWlCTTayOR7O4ZLPWEuDzwI6dchW78uWf2MMD9Fw4QE3x00md9WNKpwA1E7KdkvccQ4nwzRNDQy37-K-pVztdn3NCs/s400/you2_sis&brotoo_front.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454438812534194962" /></a><br /><div>And then there was the "Bro & Sis Too" -the original version of this YOU2 twin stroller design was a sell out from the minute we launched it and we're sure that mums and dads will love the new version with it's ditsy prints even more! </div><div><br /></div><div>Let us know what you think.<br /></div>Vicky Morleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02314478231496068553noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3358508561191883939.post-75014730877279916532010-03-30T07:34:00.000-07:002010-03-30T07:57:22.944-07:00It Takes Two Baby!Here's the second of our 2 newest funky twin buggies the SNAP -the newest aditions to our "Stand Out From The Crowd" YOU2 collections.<div>Our happy snappy croc is sure to be popular with tots -especially when the see the "see ya later alligator" slogans on the back of the hoods -cute and cool at once!</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIRXQBQCOUlwImbOBhxkp45gf3IyE5uqdvZJYt1xtV0l8PxQVaOuWtXr-q8OdfzZoEEX9egf61DXxz2v5J6ytZLsxSJePaQNofLydSqsVHZGyLGFiNhADpsaVZ2ZUR8lq1HGpkCQ0Mqkk/s1600/you2_snap_front.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 302px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIRXQBQCOUlwImbOBhxkp45gf3IyE5uqdvZJYt1xtV0l8PxQVaOuWtXr-q8OdfzZoEEX9egf61DXxz2v5J6ytZLsxSJePaQNofLydSqsVHZGyLGFiNhADpsaVZ2ZUR8lq1HGpkCQ0Mqkk/s400/you2_snap_front.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454438399205091762" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGMMTJnjM8x7zoxGmIDy9RIjhbpF8BkK5H8cx369OC2xmHbCHFuqcHwczs1IqVnWJQI1ugHJjPxDaDdtDoLtIxU15UEiQEqbWjf6TjTkRKbJQOp1AJyu9GytYPHGd0wp2hbmEWWuZVeqM/s1600/you2_snap_back.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 287px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGMMTJnjM8x7zoxGmIDy9RIjhbpF8BkK5H8cx369OC2xmHbCHFuqcHwczs1IqVnWJQI1ugHJjPxDaDdtDoLtIxU15UEiQEqbWjf6TjTkRKbJQOp1AJyu9GytYPHGd0wp2hbmEWWuZVeqM/s400/you2_snap_back.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454437675664739618" /></a>Vicky Morleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02314478231496068553noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3358508561191883939.post-61714271559194941832010-03-30T02:07:00.000-07:002010-03-30T02:43:58.085-07:00OUR NEW SHOWROOM<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">Well here are our lovely new nursery sets, after plenty of hammering, painting and trips up (& down) ladders.
