When it comes to the cooler months, my wardrobe immediately goes back to black. There is nothing more chic than an all black look especially in Winter. This year I’ve been thinking about introducing more black in to Anya’s wardrobe too. Maybe a little surprising for a kid, but she does like black and never objects to wearing it. Perhaps she wants to be more like mommy – who knows but a girl can dream, right? : ) Anyway, thinking about this I went searching to see what was out there. I found some beautiful black clothes for kids that are so chic that I wouldn’t mind some for myself, especially those boots and the Winter hat! And how gorgeous is that herringbone dress with the ribbon detail? Here are my favourite finds:
Have you seen this stunning new Autumn/Winter collection by Caramel? Caramel is an old favourite British brand that always creates clothes that are timeless and beautiful. This is probably my favourite collection yet. Caramel is always about delivering understated style without compromising on comfort and this collection does just that. That skirt (pictured bottom right) – how lovely is the cut? And that dress with the red trim? I’m loving it all. I’ve picked out the girls collection to share here but there is also some gorgeous stuff for boys and babies.
With the arrival of each season, I am always very excited to see the new collections on offer. One of my favourite lines to check out is Pepito by Chus. This Spanish brand of kids clothes never disappoints. It is always effortlessly chic and striking while the clothes are still very practical and comfortable for children to wear. This season, here are some of pieces that really stand out for me:
I don’t think I’ve ever lusted after an item of kids clothing like I am over this girls Winter coat. Chic and comfy in a colour that can be worn with anything, this coat is a stand-out piece. I just wish came in adult sizes too.
I’ve often wondered about bloomer style shorts for older girls – while I like the idea I’ve never seen it done quite as beautifully as these. The style of the bloomers is playful and childish but the fabrics and colours are more grown up so the combo makes it not only appropriate for older girls but a really fun fashion piece that can be worn with or without tights.
All the dresses have stylish cuts and interesting details like ruffle cuffs, peter pan collars or unexpected gathers. As in the pictures, they look fab worn with just a pair of simple wellie boots. And even with all the style on offer, the cuts are still relaxed to allow plenty of comfort and movement. Beautiful stuff!
Last but not least are the blouses. As with the whole collection, there is a classic yet contemporary feel to the blouses. Those large bows and ruffle collars on many of them are really cute and girly without being fussy. I love that these blouses can be mixed and matched so easily and worn with anything from jeans to skirts.
I’m most in love with the girls fashion probably because I want it all for Anya. But Pepito by Chus also offer boys clothes in a smaller range as well as the most adorable baby clothes. Check it out because I promise you will fall in love with these chic clothes.
Do you remember Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys? I was a big fan of the Nancy Drew books and I remember my brother being crazy about The Hardy Boys. I loved the spirit of adventure and what (at the time) seemed to be the most exciting mysteries ever. I think I even wanted to be her at one stage! Now, decades later this new Fall/Winter collection inspired by the whole Nancy Drew era has me smitten.
Looking at this collection, you can’t help but think spies and mysteries, detectives and top-secret missions from a by-gone era. How fun is that for any little kid? With a strong retro vibe and beautiful Autumnal colours, this latest collection is so playful and charming. I love everyday clothes like these that allow children to pretend play and transport themselves in to their very own make believe world.
Inspired by their daughters obsession with spies and mysteries, this husband and wife team created this newest collection. I’m a big fan of Misha Lulu already but this latest collection is my favourite!
