I hope 2012 is a fabulous, happy and safe year for everyone! 

Please stay tuned for an exciting year with Cocobu! As some of you may know, Cocobu opened a NEW and beautiful (if I don't say so myself!) online store in December of last year. As we learn more about our new site you'll see a few changes, our first being our product images and information. We are currently in the process of organising more images of our gorgeous range for your shopping pleasure! Shortly you will be able to view our products inside and out, giving you a more informed choice when heading to the checkout!! If you feel that we could do more to help, please feel free to contact us about it!!

I don't know whether your anything like me but I have always loved Children's accessories! And now I guess more than ever its mainly due to having our daughter Ava in January 2011! Im hoping Ava will love them just as much as I do! She certainly owns enough of it all, shoes, bags and headbands just to name a few!

Based on my love affair, I thought about and decided on stocking a range for children, naming it the Ava collection. This range of children's bags and accessories is just gorgeous! The colours are bright and attractive and the material is a durable PVC. I believe that the range excites children and gives them a real sense of ownership with their gorgeous backpack or cooler lunch bag!

True to Cocobu, the range is unique and different to the standard accessories available within stores. The collection makes a wonderful gift for any child and a great gift to start the new school year off! Ava will be taking her new backpack to school (daycare) this year! 

The Ava collection features a girls and boys range of Backpacks, fully lined and completely waterproof. They are so simple to wipe down with a cloth and soapy water. The colours standout making your child's bag easy to find wherever it may be hiding! The backpack is a great size, I manage to fit sooo much in, nappies, change mat, clothes, FOOD!, a wallet and my phone too!

The Penny Pals are a gorgeous accessory to add to the backpack, it can be clipped to the bag for small coins or even a lipgloss! The Penny Pal is also great for any adult wanting a small coin purse too, it easily fastens to your key ring making it easy to pay for parking when parking your car! Be sure to purchase one quickly though, as they have been discontinued, its really sad but hopefully something will arrive shortly to replace them.

The Cooler Lunch Bag is sure to keep your little ones meal cool through the summer and warm through the winter! It features internal insulating, a pocket for any small items and a velcro strap to fasten a bottle or ice block. The cooler lunch bag fits comfortably into any of our backpacks too, and is a handy item for picnics as well!

These are just a few of the items available, Check out all our Ava collection today at www.cocobu.com.au

I'm sure you'll fall in love with it just as I have!

Do you ever feel like your current bag weighs the side of your body down?

It probably is!! I find one of the most common issues presented to me is that we all carry too much in our bags at any one given time! I guess the obvious solution is to minimise what we carry to ease the struggle on the shoulder, but it isn't always that easy right??

WRONG!! Body slings have always been a popular choice for those that find it hard to manage a bag on one shoulder. They used to be unfortunately a bit old fashioned, but these days they are designed in all sorts of sizes and colours to suit you and your needs!! And surprisingly still fit everything you would need daily.

Some of the main reasons that these bags are so popular (and good for you!) is that the weight carried can be distributed across the body instead of on one side. Another reason why so many of our customers have purchased the body sling, is for the security it provides on overseas holidays. It simply wins hands down over any other handbag or accessory to have whilst travelling. You can carry all that you need and it will be comfortable for you too!

Another reason for its popularity is how fabulous it is for mums with small children! I have watched so many mums trying to juggle child, bag and groceries! Ha! I have found myself in that situation A LOT!! Again, wearing the body sling provides great security, you can wear it instead of leaving it in the trolley, its also very convenient and a total handsfree option!

At cocobu.com.au we stock two styles of the body sling. Both are made of quality leather, available in two sizes and three different colours. The smaller out of the two is obviously slightly smaller but much more compact than the larger style. Both feature a front and zipped rear pocket, a small internal pouch for lippie etc plus a space for your mobile phone. The body sling is super durable too! We have had both the smaller and larger in stock since we started our business just over 5 years ago and they continually sell well wherever we are!

Checkout our Leather Body Slings and feel how comfortable and convenient they really are. There will be no turning back!
