With their new spring collection, Okkies continues the trend with lightweight tees and breezy cotton pants in plaid, camo, stripes and more! We're certain he'll get a big kick out of the Okkies Paint Splatter Cargo Pants! Pair it with the Golden Poppy V-Neck Tee or--for an extra wild look, the White Giraffe Screen Print Tee.

Cold-Weather Cords

Oh the weather outside is frightful...and those thin jeans don't keep little legs warm the way they should. That's why we love a soft corduroy for winter warmth! Dressy ones, casual ones, cords for boys, girls, and babies...we got our hands on them all!

Deux par Deux and Charlie Rocket have both created boys corduroy pants that take him from school events straight to the sledding hill!

Girls will dig the New York designs of Wati and their array of pants, skirts, and corduroy dresses. Pair them with one of Wati's Velvet Coats for extra snuggly warmth! And for babies, nothing is cuter than the European flair of Catimini's Spirit Couleur Corduroy Floral Dress!

Special Occasion Clothing for Kids

With the holidays just one short week away (yikes!) we know there'll be lots of recitals, parties, and dinners to attend. And as much as we know the kids prefer a tee and jeans, casual clothes just won't suffice. Fortunately, European designer Jean Bourget has created a Special Edition line that's perfect for all those holiday events!

For boys, you'll have no trouble getting him to wear the Jean Bourget Special Edition White Dress Shirt. Soft cotton wears like his usual button-downs but with a subtle, snazzy detailing that will have him looking so debonaire! Try layering the Black Sweater Vest over it for extra warmth and pair them with the Herringbone Pant to complete the handsome look!

For girls, we just adore the Jean Bourget Special Edition Cinched Dress. It's made of a soft stretch fabric that will have her comfy cozy the whole night through. And for an extra bit of glam, the Faux Suede Coat will have her stealing the spotlight and feeling like a superstar!

Jean Bourget hasn't forgotten the babies, either! You'll find an array of soft velvets for baby girls, like the Bronze Velvet Dress and matching Velvet Cropped Jacket. And baby boys will be as handsome as ever in their Jean Bourget Tiny Special Edition Plaid Pant and Navy Dress Coat.

Peace, Love & Happiness

Spread the message of peace and joy this holiday season! Pampolina makes it easy and fun with their peace sign girls tees in cottage cream or dark rose. Sparkly beading adds a little extra bling to make that outfit POP with glamorous style.

City Threads--known for their California-style graphic tees--throws up the deuce on their layered Navy Peace Fingers Tee. A real hit with that all-American boy. And bad girls will dig the "tattoo" sleeves on the City Threads Pink Love Heart Tee, designed with their attitude in mind!

Room Seven spreads the love in a sweet, girly way with long sleeve girls tees with embroidered "Love" script--choose from red, pink, or grey. Makes every day feel like Valentines Day!

Our Favorite Mittens for Winter!

Kenzo is a European line known for its use of vivid colors and Asian-inspired designs. This fall/winter season, Kenzo has released a new line called Techno Jap, which offers babies, toddlers, and even big girls brightly colored knits in shades of fuchsia, green and royal blue. But their girls winter gloves and mittens are absolutely the best part!! They're made from a combination of acrylic, polyester, and mohair for extra softness on little fingers. The gloves with the little smiling faces on the fingers is my favorite! We also love the Kenzo Toddler Techno Jap Mittens, which gives her one pink mitten and one blue!

In the boys gloves department, we can't get enough of French designer Catimini's Collegiate Mittens. Catimini makes a glove that's youthful yet delightfully preppy for those little future Harvard grads. Made from a cotton and wool blend, these mittens are insanely snuggly and warm.

Little Hipsters

The dropped waist is the latest trend in girls dresses and we couldn't be happier. This chic style has her looking feminine, modern and oh-so fashion forward.

California designer Baby Nay has created a youthful hipster dress in two gorgeous patterns: Rose Toile for the girly girls and a funky Scribble Dots pattern for the wild child in your home.

Chipie, another designer we adore, makes their drop waist dress out of luscious velour in deep, rich purple tones. The turtleneck collar and uber-soft fabrics are perfect for the upcoming winter.

Jean Bourget is no stranger to high fashion designs, and their Limited Edition Drop Waist Dress is no exception. Loose-fit stretch fabrics are as comfortable as they are stylish, and the bubble hem is just too cute for words!

Hoodie Goodies

We love a comfy hoodie on kids--it's the perfect way to make sure they stay bundled and warm with out the struggle getting them to wear their scarf and hat.

Catimini gives him a green striped pull-over hoodie with front pockets to keep those little digits warm too. Deux par Deux makes boy's hoodies equally cool with grafitti prints and inner lining that's extraordinarily soft and cozy.

In the zip-up category, what's cooler than the Charlie Rocket Sage Snowboards Zip Hoodie? The sleek snowboard screen print on the back of the hoodie has him looking ready to tear up the slopes.

And finally, Jean Bourget takes the hoodie to new levels, giving it a surprisingly sophisticated twist! The Tiny Casual Zip Hoodie Cardigan offers a woven vest front that's as handsomely charming as it is warm. And the blazer/hoodie combination featured in Jean Bourget's Tiny Authentic Corduroy Blazer/Hoodie...I mean, seriously, how cool is that!?

Family Pecking Order

There's a new baby in the house, it's time to let everyone know who's on top and who's the newcomer. City Threads Big Sister, City Threads Little Sister Tee and Baby Sister tee's are always a hit. Big sister gets to show her new baby sister around and show her the off limits areas. City Threads doesn't leave out the boys, City Threads Big Brother, City Threads Little Brother and City Threads Baby Brother tee's are all available.

This fall, designers are drawing inspiration from the dance stage, offering girls clothes will that have her on her tip toes spinning 'round and 'round. Here's just a few we've found:

On the Edge

Sure, we love it when our kids look prim and proper. But do they? Probably not. Chances are, they want to look and dress like Joe Jonas or Selena Gomez...they want a little edge to their wardrobe. Don't worry, we're not asking you to fray any hems or distress any jeans. Instead, we've found some incredible collections of children's urban wear that will satisfy you both. The Catimini Fall 2008 collection features a stunning line of urban wear for boys and girls, big and small. They've got flare jeans for girls, cargo cords for boys, and some of the most fabulous children's winter hats and mittens we've seen. Meanwhile, Okkies is perhaps the master of urban chic, offering fabulous camos, cargos, and graphic layered tees for boys AND girls. And of course, we can't forget IKKS, who's Denim and Vintage lines defy the standard and put your wild child in something truely rockin'!

Sweet Dreams

I suppose I'm not one to talk about pajamas. Not to divulge T.M.I., but an old tee is enough for me to throw on and curl up under the covers in. But there's something so...I don't know...winter-y about a matching pair of kids pajamas. Makes me think of Christmas morning and long weekends spent indoors playing games. I suppose these childhood memories are why some of the best kids pj sets are made just for kids. We love the children's pajama line, At Home Pajamas, because each pair offers unique patterns to fit his/her personality: cars, kitties, robots, snowboarders, hearts...and even (my personal favorite) cupcakes!

More party favors

I don't mean to get stuck on this topic, it just seems like all of a sudden I've got a ton of parties on my calender. I'm always jealous of those moms who do a good job on the birthday party favors front. I always feel kind of lame handing out Ben & Jerry's gift certificates when they kids are expecting something neat.

I'm guessing that I couldn't go wrong with these personalized birthday cookies. ... yummy butter cookies with your own personalized message in the frosting on the cookie. Granted the kids aren't likely to spend too much time admiring the artwork before they munch it down. But these Beau-Coup Party Favors are sure to be a hit. They've even got some gifts for older kids and adults.

Easy baby shower gifts

Over the years I've been to my fair share of baby showers. At some point, I fell into the mode of buying the same baby shower gifts regardless of who the new mother was going to be. After a certain number of showers, I can only be so creative and have just run out time.

I've recently found Beau-Coup which is a great resource for baby shower gifts. No more running around from retail store to store trying to find something unique. It's all there at the click of a mouse, no wasted gas or hours trying to find something special.

Even better, when you're putting on the baby shower, they're a one stop shop for baby shower favors. They've got a huge selection of all sorts of neat stuff that will make the event special. I mean, who wouldn't be impressed by personalized mints for your girlfriends shower?

I've got them bookmarked in my browser for the next time I have to put on a baby shower. They are definitely a one stop shop for baby gifts and baby shower supplies that will help make the day a fun and fabulous event.
