I’ve always adored Ben Sherman, the label that became synonymous with UK mods and rockers since the late 60s. Show me a guy in Ben Sherman on match.com and I’ll show you a guy I would have clicked on in my single days.Now? They have a kids line. Wow, is...

California Dreaming

Maybe because I’ve got an ex-boarder in the family, but I’m a sucker for skateboarding clothes on kids far more than other sports-inspired clothing. (Although props to bowling shirts – love you guys. Mwa.) I’m always on the lookout for suave...

Slowly Back Away From the Pink

There’s more to the color spectrum than pink and purple, but try telling that to a little girl. I’ve found they often need a little encouragement from fashion-forward parents in order to break away from those girly-girl trends–only to find out they...

Giiiiiiirls Iiiiiiin Spaaaaaaaaaaaace…

Old school Muppet Show fans will recognize this headline–and know why I can’t get the line out of my head when I look at this awesome Spacegirl shirt for kids. This, along with the other inspired tees and onesies come courtesy of Vancouver design shop...
