If you’d asked me a few days ago if I’d be writing on my blog about a song that explains diversity and tolerance through the use of a fruit salad… The song is indeed called ‘We’re All Fruit Salad‘, by The Wiggles to celebrate their 30th anniversary (Trivia for you, it’s not their first fruit salad related song). The Wiggles is an Australian kids tv school and music group (think Rainbow meets Barney The Dinosaur meets S Club meets Glee for preschoolers). It invloves a lot of primariy colours and a whole array of charachters, both in the human form and others. The reason that we are talking about how we’re all fruit salad, Erstwilder’s latest collection also celebrates the anniversary of the show and features a lot of cute fruit.
“I was dreaming that we’re all fruit salad… All the colours of the rainbow and the bowl was the world, uh…It’s not just one fruit to make a fruit saladit takes all different kinds of fruit to make a perfect bowl…”
Sing along with me
“And we’re all… fruit salad…”
What’s Being Released?
The collection is on the small side with 6 brooches, 5 mini brooches, a necklace and 10 enamel pins. Ther pins and mini broches are also available as a set. I’m clearly not a fan of The Wiggles (even though I’m still singing the fruit salad song) but I think the necklace and mini broches are so cute that they could stand alone and go with any summer look.
You can watch a video of the entire launch on Erstwilder’s facebook page but I’ve also provided screen prints below.
Do They Sell Out?
I honestly have no idea with this collection. I don’t think it will have as big a following in the UK as it does in Australia but as always if you are a fan of The Wiggles and you must have it then don’t delay. AFAIK there are only two UK stockists.
Where and when
The range officially launches at 12:30PM (AEST) Friday 1st October but UK stockists have a range of launch times which are listed below:
Friday 1st October
5am
6:30am
From everything \I can tell, these are the only two UK stockists of this collection. Other stockists may have some or all of the pieces but haven’t stated that they will be getting them. You can see the full stockist list here.
