The collection is named after baby Louie and big sister Belle, and features Baby Carrier Mini, Baby Carrier One and Bouncer Bliss. The Louie &amp; Belle collection is available in three colours \u2013 a sunny yellow and two lovely blues \u2013 all inspired by Spring. To coincide with the launch, mum Andrea and dad Linus, together with their two young children, are sharing their story with us. It&#8217;s about how two became four in a short space of time, and about love, closeness and the importance of finding your own path in life.<\/p>\n<p>Baby Carrier Mini and Baby Carrier One are two soft and ergonomic baby carriers that make it easy for parents to give their baby the important closeness that strengthens the parent-child bond from day one. The flexible fabric allows the babywearer to both see and feel that they\u2019re carrying their newborn in a natural position. The fabric gently hugs the baby\u2019s back, legs and hips, and provides good support so that they sit in a comfy, ergonomic position.<\/p>\n<p>Baby Carrier Mini is a small, snug and simple baby carrier that mum or dad can put on quickly for frequent, short babywearing sessions. It\u2019s easy for the parent to unfasten the entire front section of the baby carrier to lift out their sleeping baby. It\u2019s perfect for the first months when the baby needs a lot of closeness around the clock.<\/p>\n<p>With Baby Carrier One, a parent needs no assistance to easily and safely switch between carrying their baby facing in, facing out or on their back, once the child is ready. The baby carrier\u2019s fully adjustable size, seat area and head support mean that it can be adapted as the newborn baby grows and their needs change. Baby Carrier One has a sturdy waist belt and padded shoulder straps that relieve pressure on the wearer\u2019s back and shoulders and make it comfortable to carry the child up to the age of three years.<\/p>\n<p>Bouncer Bliss is a cosy place for a baby to play or rest close by, while mum or dad takes a shower or prepares a meal. The bouncer rocks gently when the baby kicks their legs or waves their arms. Our baby bouncer doesn\u2019t require batteries \u2013 it runs on pure fun! Playing in the baby bouncer also helps the baby to develop their motor skills and balance. Bouncer Bliss can be used from newborn and up to the age of two years.<\/p>\n<p>All fabrics that come in contact with the child&#8217;s skin meet the requirements of OEKO-TEX Standard 100, Class 1 for baby products. This means that they are kind to a very young baby\u2019s skin and safe to taste.<\/p>\n<p>Louie &amp; Belle \u2013 the 2020 Spring collection is available in:<\/p>\n<p>Baby Carrier Mini, Light yellow, Cotton (RRP: \u00a374.99)<br \/>\nBaby Carrier One, Light blue\/Light grey, Cotton Mix (RRP: \u00a3143.99)<br \/>\nBouncer Bliss, Light yellow, Cotton\/Sky blue, Mesh (RRP: \u00a3154.99)<\/p>\n<p>The Louie &amp; Belle collection will be available online and in stores from 31 March 2020.

Based on the same recipe as the original Gin 1689, The Queen Mary Edition is designed to reflect the 17th century when the world\u2019s first pink gin was created after mixing the original spirit with bruised strawberries and raspberries.<\/p>\n<p>Founders of the Amsterdam Craft Gin Company, Alexander Janssens and Patrick van der Peet, created Gin 1689 based on an original 300-year-old recipe from the time of King William III of England, also known as William of Orange, and Queen Mary II, found in the archives of the British Library.<\/p>\n<p>The founders spent two years searching the archives of the British Library for the recipe whilst living in London and were excited to uncover the secret recipe in the rare books section. The recipe lists the original ingredients, but the exact quantities were concealed by a code created by Distillers of London, which proved unbreakable. The founders acquired the exclusive rights to the recipe and tasked the master distiller at Herman Jansen in the Netherlands, a family distillery dating back to 1777, to recreate the gin recipe for them.<\/p>\n<p>Gin 1689 \u2013 The Queen Mary Edition is, like the original expression, a classic juniper style spirit with botanicals such as dried quince and pippin (apple), lemon and orange peel, nutmeg, aniseed, and clove. The addition of the strawberries and raspberries gives this first Dutch Pink Gin a pink hue and red fruity nose, which blends well with the spiciness of the original gin.<br \/>\nIt is a 100% sugar-free pink gin in a distinctive royal red bottle with luxurious gold lettering. Best served with premium Indian tonic, ice, and garnished with sliced strawberries.<\/p>\n<p>Janssens says, \u201cWe are really excited to introduce Gin 1689, The Queen Mary Edition to the UK. It follows on from the successful launch of the original Gin 1689 last year and continues to celebrate its Dutch heritage. It is the rebirth of an ancient premium gin recipe dating back from the time that the gin craze started in the UK. With our distinctive packaging and great tasting liquid, we\u2019re confident that we can make a mark here. I was thrilled to discover the recipe whilst working in London and spending time in the British Library, as we knew William of Orange brought his Jenever recipe over to England when he became King; the beginning of gin\u2019s popularity.\u201d\u201d<\/p>\n<p>RRP: From \u00a337.95 for 70cl ABV: 38.5%<\/p>\n<p>Available from: Master of Malt<\/p>\n<p>www.gin1689.com<\/p>\n<p>Instagram: @enjoy_gin1689, Facebook: @gin1689<\/p>\n<h3>IKEA\u2019s top selection of gifts to treat the wonderful women in our lives.<\/h3>\n<p>Why not break with the tradition of busy restaurants and spend quality time at home, treating mum to some much-deserved relaxation.

Beovision Harmony is a stunning piece of design that once again demonstrates Bang &amp; Olufsen\u2019s uncompromising approach to design, craftmanship and sound performance.<\/p>\n<p>Bang &amp; Olufsen recently unveiled Beovision Harmony \u2014 a TV experience that elevates the design of any living space and fills it with spectacular sound. When Beovision Harmony is turned off or just playing music, the thin screen rests close to the floor, partially covered by two meticulously crafted oak and aluminium fronts, which house the powerful sound centre. When Beovision Harmony is turned on, the two fronts fan out \u2014 like a butterfly opening its wings \u2014 and the screen rises to the perfect viewing height. Turn off the TV, and the finely choreographed sequence plays out in reverse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPristine picture performance combined with truly immersive sound ensures a mesmerizing viewing experience. But the presence of a big screen is rarely a welcoming addition to living spaces. With Beovision Harmony, we wanted to create a meaningful object for interior that reduces the visual presence of the TV and transforms it into something that people will develop an emotional attachment to\u201d, says John Mollanger, Bang &amp; Olufsen\u2019s Executive Vice President of Brand and Markets.<\/p>\n<p>The crafted oak and aluminium fronts house sublime technical instruments, delicately tuned by hand and ear to reveal all details of music and sound. The intricate grading pattern is carefully designed to maximize acoustic performance of the three-channel, fully active DSP-based sound centre. Paired with LG\u2019s top-class 77\u201d or 65\u201d OLED screen \u2014 featuring brighter, self-illuminating pixels and stunning colour \u2014 this paragon of home d\u00e9cor and luxury entertainment brings new life to movies, sporting events and must-see shows.<\/p>\n<p>Standing on the shoulders of giants<br \/>\nThe concept behind Beovision Harmony builds on some of Bang &amp; Olufsen\u2019s most cherished products. The Capri series, introduced in 1959, was designed to fully integrate with the living room. Hence the TV was built in teak, which was the preferred wood for furniture at the time. The 1964 Beovision Capri 611 FM SJ TV even integrated both a TV and a radio into a single cabinet, allowing people to hide the electronics completely when not in use.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have been sharing an obsessive passion for almost 100 years, and it has been a mission of ours to perfect the techniques used to reproduce sound and vision and to embody it in a design that people are proud to have in their homes. Wood has always been an important aspect of Nordic architecture and furniture design because of its individual character, robustness and versatility, and we are proud to carry this forward in our Beovision Harmony\u201d, says John Mollanger.<\/p>\n<p>Home-filling entertainment<br \/>\nBeovision Harmony is designed as a centrepiece for home entertainment.

Located at luxury London department store Selfridges, the showroom opens on 10th February for six months and is situated in the Contemporary Studio on the third floor.<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration will introduce Selfridges shoppers to the growing world of fashion rental, a market that is expected to reach a value of $1.96bn by 2023. With the \u201cone and done\u201d approach to outfits, fuelled by social media, still very much present among UK consumers, HURR reminds us that fashion can be sustainable. The pop-up will showcase a curated range of 200 pieces from the HURR website, with an outfit to suit every occasion.<\/p>\n<p>From dresses to accessories to outerwear, all for a fraction of the retail cost, customers can rent trend-led and coveted one-off pieces from brands such as Rixo, Ganni, Mara Hoffman and Gucci for 7 days. The pop up will also house an iMirror by NOBAL Technologies, the world\u2019s most advanced interactive mirror, allowing customers to seamlessly combine the online and in-store offerings for an all inclusive and bespoke experience. The pop-up will also act as a drop-off point for lenders looking to see a return on their investment pieces through the platform.<\/p>\n<p>Founded by Victoria Prew, one of Drapers\u2019 30 under 30 for rising sustainable entrepreneurs, HURR has pioneered the fashion rental revolution, as the UK\u2019s first peer-to-peer marketplace allowing members to securely rent and lend wardrobes through the use of geo-tagging. Capitalising on the shift towards shared marketplaces, HURR is providing an access point for customers looking for newness, variety, affordability and sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>The Selfridges stock will rotate on a weekly basis and include curated London Fashion Week, Valentines Day and Holiday edits, ensuring regular customers have a continuously fresh offering. HURR will also host a series of interactive workshops over the course of the six months, including sustainable fashion panel discussions, how to build an online brand and styling sessions.<\/p>\n<p>The move follows the success of HURR\u2019s first pop-up hosted in London\u2019s Belgravia, allowing current and new members of the platform the opportunity to take their experience offline and physically interact with the product and the founders, creating a real community within HURR.<\/p>\n<p>Victoria Prew, CEO &amp; Co-Founder of HURR added \u201cHURR is based on creating accessibility and a route to luxury fashion for a mainstream market. We\u2019ve seen consumer behaviours change significantly in recent years as we move towards access based models for houses, holidays and cars and now we are seeing the same with our wardrobes. I couldn\u2019t think of a better partner than Selfridges to help us translate the HURR experience into store\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-620396\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/inkk-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"922\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-620394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ogg.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"391\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>This Issue of Taste of Italia <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Travels to Florence!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>FOODS OF FLORENCE,<br \/>\nCATHERINE DE&#8217; MEDICI AND THE ITALIAN RENAISSANCE<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-620392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ppip.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"354\" height=\"531\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Everyone called her the Italian greengrocer when she moved from Italia to la Francia and married the future King of France.

Peli now offers the new Peli&#x2122; Hybrid Cases. Available as a new standard offering in either the Peli&#x2122; 1510 or Peli&#x2122; Air 1535 Carry On Case, the interior features both the TrekPak&#x2122; system and the classic Pick N Pluck&#x2122; manually customisable foam.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis new, extremely versatile configuration offers users the best of both worlds and a host of new organisational options,\u201d said Pavel Levshin, Product Marketing Manager EMEA.<\/p>\n<p>TrekPak&#x2122; Divider System<\/p>\n<p>Case owners simply need to lay out their gear the way they wish for it to include it in the case, measure and cut the divider sections, and lock them in place with the provided U-pins. Each divider section is manufactured from a waterproof, closed-cell foam that is laminated to a rigid corrugated plastic panel. They are light weight, strong and almost impossible to tear or shred. Additional divider panels are available separately to switch up the layout any time.<\/p>\n<p>Pick N Pluck&#x2122; Foam<\/p>\n<p>Classic and simple Pick N Pluck&#x2122; foam is pre-scored and cubed for easy manual customisation and offered standard in almost all Peli&#x2122; case models.

It also features a removable rugged ID card holder. Since its introduction in 2004, the Peli&#x2122; 1510 Carry On case has been the industry standard for travelling with sensitive equipment that users don\u2019t want to check in* (*always check with your airline for exact measurement requirements). Its extremely tough polymer construction protects mission critical equipment in worst case scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>Both cases contain a robust pull handle coupled with smooth stainless steel ball bearing wheels for effortless transport, a polymer O-ring for a dust and water-resistant seal, and an integrated automatic pressure equalisation valve that keeps moisture out and prevents vacuum lock, ensuring the case is easier to open at any altitude.
