Tis the season to scurry to the web and take advantage of all the great designer kids' clothes that are starting to go on sale. At least here, we've got a good four months left of sweater weather and then some. A new shop to add to your …
One of our favorite things about our job is tracking down the coolest kids' clothes, whether it's casual tees, trendy but affordable pieces, or the splurgey stuff that makes you yearn for four more kids for hand-me-downs. You'll find all…
Each week we feature our favorite pins on Pinterest, but today we'd be remiss if we didn't point you towards just a few of our our own Cool Mom Picks Pinterest boards , which we've been packing with last minute holiday gifts and ideas fo…
I still remember how frustrating it was when the adults on Sesame Street couldn't see fuzzy, lovable Snuffy, and Big Bird always got in trouble for whatever trouble that big, clumsy critter caused. Boy, was I glad I didn't have an imagin…
I've been smitten with Wunway since I discovered their lovely, KID-appropriate clothes (it's true) for girls earlier this year. Since my 9-year old picks out her own outfits these days, I thought I'd let her browse the site and share her…
Now in its second year, today's International Day of the Girl Child was created by the United Nations to bring light to the special challenges and inequalities girls face around the world. We especially love this year's theme which focus…
On my now frequent visits to Manhattan, I've become smitten with many adorable kids' boutiques that I'm unable to share with you (boo!) since they don't yet have online stores. But that's not the case with this lovely shop, which just la…
We discovered mom-run Myself Belts back in 2006 (wow), and it's awesome to see how they've grown. They make a brilliant line of first belts for toddlers, especially during the potty training months. You know what I'm talking about. And n…
There are lots of back to school kids' clothing trends that we're really liking this year, but one of them: the return of the star. The classic five-point star is showing up everywhere from the mass stores to the hottest kids' brands, lo…
featured partner One of the fun parts of fall for us is looking at all the fun new fashion trends , and getting fun ideas for our own kids. Last week we swooned over the new Ralph Lauren Kids' collection in their adorable fashion show vi…
We like back to school shopping for kids , obviously. And we like giving things away. So we're super excited that our sponsor Gap is hosting an amazing event in more than a dozen of their stores--and letting us give one of our readers a …
Our pals at Tea Collection say their latest round of boys' pants can stand up to dragons, thanks to reinforced knees, durable material , and the look of denim without the zipper issues. So they'll probably survive the playground, too. Wh…
Recently we wrote about the splurgey loveliness that is Caramel Baby + Child, a UK label specializing in the stuff a lot of us dream of dressing our children in, but not necessarily at retail prices. Well now, they're less. The Caramel B…
Well parents, your retail desires have been granted. Or at least one of mine has. Because it's official: H&M is now selling clothes online. Whoo! Following in the 2011 footsteps of Zara online , I am so happy to find H&M online now up an…
Having lived in big cities through my entire pre-kids existence, I admit to a pretty intense fondness for designs with an urban edge. So it's no surprise I fell hard for this creative, city-inspired collection of cool tees for babies (an…
My love for the Scandinavian design of Marimekko goes back to when I slept on their sheets as a kid myself. (My parents had great taste, lucky me!) So when I see the whole shop is on sale up to 50% off , I'm all over it. Visit the Marime…
This is precisely the time each year that I realize my oldest daughter has outgrown all her summer dresses (grrr) and that her younger sister is not quite ready to reap the benefits. So looking at the adorable new dresses from Wunway, I'…
featured partner We get excited when Jacadi Paris , the awesomely luxe baby and kids' brand that pretty much never goes on sale...is going on sale. Yay! And we're partnering with them today to share our favorite picks from the sale. (If …
Everyday dads are heros, from giving superman flights in the hallways to chasing away the monsters in the closet. So this Father's Day, why not let Dad know how their biggest fans really feel with these awesome Father's Day tees. The ado…
Putting together a nursery or little kid's room can be a challenge if you're going for a certain retro-mod Scandinavian rainbow look. I mean, there is nothing out there that fits that exact description. Or wait, maybe there is. The relau…
I've always loved peppering my daughters' wardrobes with just a few special handmade pieces from indie artists, from Courtney Chu to Ses Petites Mains and Baby Bean. Not only do they freshen up an otherwise ordinary wardrobe of leggings,…
Our neighborhood pool opens at the end of this week (whoo!), so I'm busy tracking down stylish, swim trunks for my son that will last us all summer long. While last week we found some great swimsuits for girls , for those of you with a b…
If I fall on my sword for one thing every year, it's that retailers need to provide us with more appropriately modest two-piece swimsuits for our daughters. Last year was a tough year, with triangle bikini tops making the rounds. This ye…
This cool website has one goal: to help teach kids valuable lessons in helping other kids in need. The really cute shirts just happen to be a bonus. Each month, Mightee Kids works with one special charity to craft a gorgeous, soft, kids'…
