Last week, I was so thrilled to be invited to attend the fashion show for the Ralph Lauren Fall and Holiday Girls collection. I have to admit, I was surprised at how wearable and funky a lot of the fashions were, as opposed to the seriou…
All kids can rock their little league team uniforms but alas, my kids don't play traditional team sports and therefore don't get a complimentary skateboarding jersey (should there be such a thing). They want jerseys, but they want them t…
You know how it goes: your kids wear their clothes for a ridiculously short period of time. Sure, there's always hand-me-downs, or consignment and Craigslist, if you're motivated enough to try to make some money. But those routes require…
When I saw this adorable little outfit on Planet Awesome Kid , I knew I had to track down the hat immediately. It brought me to the most wonderful Australian webshop filled with so many amazing kids' accessories. Including possibly the m…
My oldest is a budding scientist . He looks up to Ben Franklin the way most people look up to rock stars. For a while, said son was sporting a tri-corn hat to really perfect his Franklin look. That kind of got in the way, and frankly, wo…

Last year we discovered the super awesome Sock it To Me knee socks, which we even included in our holiday gift guide . (We still think those Derby Girl socks are a pretty darn cool gift.) But while some of the designs were decidedly kid-…
The summer is almost officially over and that means one thing: The launch of our sixth annual Back to School Shopping Guide , featuring close to 150 goodies that will help make your little and big kids' school year the coolest one yet. Y…
If your kid has a thing for Star Wars clothes, you'll be glad to know that America's favorite droid is now available in hoodie form. When asked for his response, R2D2 said, "BOOOP BEE ZOOP" and wiggled a little as if dancing to the celeb…
We're happy to introduce you to our new sponsor, Wittlebee . We think you'll like them! The hard thing about buying nice kids' clothes is facing the inevitable: the clothes will be outgrown. Quickly. What that means is yet another trip t…
When I go shopping for three kids' clothes for Back to School---or "fall" as we homeschoolers call it---I am always on the lookout for cool, unique styles that my kids won't see on all of their peers but that won't also blow my entire bu…
Once again, we're super happy to be working with Old Navy --and not just because it's so fun/weird to see Jason Priestly in their new TV ads . If you haven't checked out their insanely good sale online yet (seriously, there is a lot unde…
Whether or not my kids will one day stand on the podium of some future Olympics is not yet determined----have they started a category for intense video gaming or speed LEGO building? For now, though, I love these shirts that let them pro…
City Threads is a great little clothing company that I've raved about before. You can recognize their "Brooklyn" bucket hats on many a hipster kid at the nearest playground in my (nowhere near Brooklyn) neighborhood. Now they are finally…
We get kind of excited when we find any cool boys clothes, as you well know, and even more so when we find great boys clothes on sale. Especially when they're from from one of our favorite shops--and CMP sponsors-- Red 21 Boys . Here, ju…
[ updated with corrected info] There is something so special about children's clothes with history. Hand-me-downs aren't just a frugal choice : there's often meaning in seeing your child in his grandpa's favorite college sweatshirt. And …
In some neighborhoods, where feeding a baby a single french fry will earn you the disdain of onlooking parents everywhere (would I know of such a thing?) my anti-authority side is loving a line of vaguely irreverent baby and kids clothes…
What happens when an artist from Pixar and a designer for the Gap meet, marry, and combine their talents? Tiny Teru tees. And the results are inspirational and awesome . The designs in this line of babies and kids' shirts are inspired by…
With Independence Day coming up, I always feel the urge to put my boys in patriotic shirts. But, finding a shirt that is satisfies both the Americana theme and my kids' rock star style rolled into one? Not an easy feat...until now. [ don…
Now that our neighborhood pool is open, my kids and I practically live there, Which that means I'm willing to spend more on good quality towels and swimsuits--a lesson I learned after going through far too many per kid last summer. So wh…
With summer here, we are seeing a lot of bright colors , fun patterns and soft textures in baby and children's clothes. Perfect--because even kids dressed like little fashion models want to be comfortable. One awesome shop that has styli…
I'm a sucker for Harajuku-inspired goodness. The colors are so fun , the designs are loud and perfect for kids who are confident and love standing out. Which is all of them in my house. And now there's a new line of awesome clothes that …
Accessories for kids can be ridiculously cool when they are done well, which is why I love these baby belts. They're not only affordable, they add just the right amount of pop to any little hipster outfit. My Baby Belts has quite the sel…
