April Showers
…bring May flowers–hooray! You never think you would welcome rain, but kind of nice to trade in that heavy winter coat for a light rain jacket. When it comes to rain coats, we like to stay on the simpler side which allows for mixing with prints, colors, and accessories. Here are some of our favorites...
Dress Days
As a mom of two girls, I can personally attest to the love and adoration of dresses. Not mine necessarily, but my girls…especially my 4 year old. She would wear a dress everyday of the week. And now that spring is here, they will be in high demand. Rachel Riley is one of my favorite...
I’ve Got the World on a String…
…or at least my gloves, as to never come home ‘single-handed’. Nothing worse than your child coming home from school or a play date with only one glove, especially a lovely little cashmere one or beloved favorite. We adore gloves on a string…so genius, and yet not all that easy to find cute ones. This...
A Leg Up
Stylish, comfortable and affordable girls tights are unfortunately not as easy to find as they should be. We like to stock up on tights early on in the winter because they seem to sell out quickly and one can never seem to have enough pairs. Swedish brand Hanna Andersson is most beloved for its signature...
The Early Bird Stays Warm
For some of you, this post may seem a bit premature. But for those of you on the East Coast or Midwest, you know what we are talking about. If you wait until you desperately need winter coats, boots or buntings, there are none to be found so, act early! A stroller bunting is a...
It’s What’s on the Inside That Counts
Rough and tumble is a key element of a young boy’s life; and now that fall is here and winter is not far behind, lined pants seem to be a favorite item amongst boy moms. They provide comfort, warmth and a little extra layer between your little man and his fellow tackle buddies. Inspired by...
It’s in the Bag
There is a point when you no longer need your diaper bag to look like a designer handbag. All of a sudden your chic Mommy carryall is busting at the seems with leaking sippy cups, snacks, multiple sized diapers; and your favorite stroller bag is not quite big enough (or stylish enough) to carry as...
Going for Gold
With all eyes on England right now (who can ignore all the Diamond Jubilee coverage) and the Olympics coming up next month, we have a feeling that showing patriotism will be very in fashion this summer. Ralph Lauren (the official outfitter of the US Olympic team) has an team USA boutique on their site with...
Andy & Evan: Shirtzie
Happy Valentine’s Day! We want to introduce you to a fashion match made in heaven; the Andy & Evan shirtzie. Like the moniker of a famous celebrity couple, the shirtzie is part onesie and part button-down, and we think it makes one cute couple. The onesie style ensures shirts stay tucked-in and keep your little...
Boots for Boys
When choosing boys boots, CC prefers a clean look with a few rugged details. Heavy hardware can easily overwhelm a child; but an ultra-polished style can look too fancy for everyday wear. From all-weather to around-town styles, these are the best-looking options for your dapper Dans.—CC
