In my late twenties, I used to buy expectant friends the beautiful white blankets or the attractive silver picture frames. Now with two kids myself, I’ve done an about face from all that keepsake stuff. What can I say? I’m practical. That’s why...

I’m all for supporting my daughter’s wild imagination as my blouses become herbeautiful gowns and that old ratty dish towel, a magical cape. The only thing I don’t love is the argument that precedes almost every trip out the house when we have to...

While I rarely take the time to accessorize myself, I love finding just the right adornments to complete my daughters’ outfits. No matter how cute the clothes themselves may be, it’s often the hair clip or the cardigan or the belt that perfects the look....

If anyone ever comments that our daughter looks like her father, her father’s answer is always some form of, "really? The milkman?" Yes, it’s a chestnut. But for some reason, he’s that rare guy who can totally pull it off. So I fell...

No matter how cute the current trends in baby threads may be, there are some children’s classics that never go out of style. Or at least they shouldn’t, in my opinion. The reversible pinafores from the elegant Bella Sera Baby transported me back to my...

Not to brag, but my girls have quite lovely hair; think spun silk. However, it’s a bear to style since elastics tangle easily, and barrettes slide right out. If my preschooler was more open to me fussing with her hair for 36 bazillion hours at a sitting it might...

All the 3-going-on-14 little girl’s clothes have forced me to become a traditionalist when it comes to dressing my daughter. I’m into the fairly standard tops, bottoms, and dresses — no ridiculous mini skirts or shiny half-shirts for my toddler. But...

I love the concept of reversible kids clothes. And not just because I’m a shameless laundry avoider. It’s more so because I am at times too indecisive to choose between two items–I want them both. So when I came across the entirely reversible swingy,...

As much time as I spend on the web tracking down cool clothes for kids, I’m admit I’m still often at a loss for gifts when I hear a friend has a boy on the way. If only I liked those sailor suits, things would be a whole lot easier. And then I discovered...

Some trends in kidswear cannot be short-lived enough. That whole pimp genre of little boys’ tees? If I never see another one again that would be just fine. But one trend I’m loving: The groovy 70s-inspired designs on kids tees, that look eerily like the...
