With the air already getting cooler, it's time to pack up our our kids' tank tops, shorts, and summer dresses and replace them with new warmer clothes. Fortunately, we have some awesome ideas in that department, as you might have guessed.
Like so many moms, we've been long time fans of the beautiful, modern pieces from Tea Collection that hold up through many seasons and siblings--as we all know first-hand. So we're always happy when this mom-run company returns as a sponsor (yay!) so that we get the chance to share our own personal picks from their brand-new Nordic-inspired collection.
Let's just say this may be our very favorite collection they've ever done. No wonder it's starting to sell out already.

We love the Nordic Blooms wrap dress that combines an Asian-inspired kimono style with a unique flower print. With sizes up to 12, it's welcome relief from the blingy styles we're seeing on mall racks. You'll find this great fabric in lots of other styles too.
The beautiful, bold leaf detail on this Colors of Autumn dress adds a wonderful pop of color to this versatile piece. So cute over patterened leggings or tights, then slip it on over jeans when your daughter starts to out grow it.
The comfy Nordic Blooms Tiered Dress is so perfect for school days over leggings and high tops. Or pair it with tights for Saturday birthday parties.
Check out the Hinterland plaid tunic if, like me, you're dealing with cool mornings and warm afternoons in the south. And since it pops easily over a long-sleeved t-shirt, your girls can wear it all year long.
After seeing the stunning Dalarna Fairisle Cardi, we're hoping Tea starts offering more sweaters. And 100% cotton means no itchies.
For Boys
The layered long/short-sleeve look is so cool, and we love the outdoorsy interpretation of the Nordic life in this Off Road Layered Tee. Nice to find a new take on the uber-popular transportation motif for boys.
In the pants department, the vintage wash Awesome Cords are an...awesome (ha) update to the classic style. Such a smart jeans alternative that will keep a kid warm and comfy all season long. Or if you've got boys who love the feel of knit, but you don't love how casual those pants tend to look, then the Herringbone Knit Cargos are a really smart solution.
The adorable Hinterland plaid shirt can be dressed up or down; just switch out the jeans and sneaks for khakis and a jacket. (And psst, it would be super cute on a girl too.)
We're so happy to see that this season, Tea is carrying Patagonia down jackets for kids up to size 5. They're great on boys or girls, and the perfect weight for when the weather takes a turn - as it will.
For babies
Moms of babies, good news: So many of these beautiful styles are also available in baby sizes, along with one-pieces that we can't resist.
You can find the full Nordic-inspired collection at TeaCollection.com, where you can also enter to win a Nordic getaway and a suitcase full of Tea (wow!). Head over to their site to enter.
