As Seen In: {March, Part 2}

by Sarah on 26. March 2012 in As Seen In | Our Products | What's New
 
 
We were tickled to be featured in a detailed article on Kobiso.com this week.  Kobiso is where “Technology and fashion meet,” and the newest and most sought after products from electronics to style are featured and recommended to other fashion forward women.
Here’s what they had to say about Oilo:
 
Oilo is a fresh new approach to style setting nursery décor, chic baby bedding and designer home furnishing that are absolutely stunning.”
 
My initial attraction to Oilo was their designs, they are fresh, clean, stylish, and modern. Their designs are simple but have a large pop to them with color. They are basic patterns that flair with color.”
 
They also had this to say about our new Play Blankets:
 
 
With the weather being quite nice outside lately we have been using the blanket outside a lot so grass stains, which are tough to get out, were on this blanket. I just threw it in the machine and it was just like new. It washes very well and gets softer with each washing as well.”
 
 
"It makes a great throw blanket for the chair or back of the couch as well as a play blanket for the kids. The blanket is versatile and functional not to mention gorgeous! It holds up well to the wear and tear of being a play blanket and still keeps its quality and beauty. This is one of my must haves for every new mom. While the cost might be a bit higher it is well worth it because I know this blanket will last for generations to come and its multiple uses make it a fantastic buy.

From high heels to strollers, Mom Trends helps mom stay in the loop with all things stylish and cool.  That is why we were also delighted to be featured in a Nursery Essentials spotlight by Mom Trends this month.
Some of what they had to say…
Oilo is one company where you can find all of the essentials for your baby’s room while also discovering classic and crisp designs that you will love.”
"While viewing a selection of their bedding options, changing pads, blankets and car seat canopies I was struck by the gender-neutral color palette that includes tan, taupe, aqua, spring green, stone, citron and brown. I loved the gentle tones that weren’t super bright or featured characters. The prints that they include are all about the design and keeping things simple and classic."

About Oilo

Though not an actual word, Oilo’s roots are steeped in the Hawaiian words, “lio” (small sprout) and “ho’oilo” (the cool, rainy season).

Every autumn, the Hawaiian sun weakens and tropical trade winds usher in magnificent storms that blanket the islands in a cool, cleansing rain. It’s not beach weather. It’s curl up on the sofa with a good book weather. It’s wrap your baby up tight and rock her to sleep in the moonlight weather. Mostly, it’s about sitting back, relaxing, and enjoying the serenity of life.

That is why Oilo exists. We’re about turning your nursery into the most comfortable, clean, and carefree sanctuary in your home. Because a more enjoyable nursery, means a more constant and enduring bond between you and your baby — or, as we like to say, your little sprout.
