Hot Shop: Shak-Shuka
September 10, 2009 by Natalie · Leave a Comment
It’s rare that I find a hotspot that has the perfect blend of eco meets style but Shak-Shuka, a Dutch e-boutique run by an American and Spanish-Argentinian couple, does it in spades! They’ve pulled together a collection of the most stylish, eco friendly products for babies, kids, and mums in an aesthetically pleasing environment. There’s no bland, no twee, just finger clicking temptation goodies with a conscience.
Beautiful wooden toys including the elegant birth stone rattles above by Grimms (€20.85), cuddle blankets by Boopalina, puzzles and books by Barefoot Books, dinnerware by Bambu and Smiling Planet, bottles by Thinkbaby, bedding by Frank & Fischer, Olli & Lime, Ella & Otto, and Piccalilly who are responsible for the gorgeous butterfly crib sheet above (€19.95), plus decor goodies by Bold & Noble, Inke Heiland, and the very colourful recycled steel and rope chair which is stellar buy at €17.95.
There’s teethers and dummies by Goldi Sauger, skincare by Erbaviva, lots of accessories, clothing by Shampoodle, Frugi, Tiny Revolutionary plus a maternity section that includes an adult version of the Shampoodle tracksuits I love – swoon!
Prices are in euros, they deliver worldwide with very reasonable postage – it would cost €6.95 for the chair to be delivered…
The name Shak-Shuka originates from the Hebrew word ‘leshakshek’ which means to shake or mix it up and that’s certainly happened here! A one stop destination of eco loveliness, this is an instant favourite that should be bookmarked and of course shopped at!
