Drool-worthy kids' clothing inspiration from across the pond
I love Caramel Baby and Child. It's total eye candy for me as I drool over all these adorable kids' outfits from London. Now, if you (like me) can't afford it, or don't have a generous UK aunt who will send you a care package, you can still find inspiration in some of these happy, gorgeous, springtime looks they've put together. Socks with sandals? Who knew it wasn't just for tourists. (Ha.) If you style it right, in a contrasty color with a bold dress, it looks surprisingly cool to me.

Bright yellow sandals make everything pop including a neutral floral dress. So fun.

A blousy top over patterned shorts can look pulled-together without feeling dressy for easy weekend brunches and family playdates.

Colorful jeans on boys are so hot right now, and a smart oxford and cardigan keep the look on the sophisticated side.

Take a break from tees and go for an oxford for boys over shorts, even for birthday party weekends. Great look, isn't it?

Boys tend to end up with lots of earth colors and neutrals but this orange cardigan just pulls everything together and makes it more playful. -Liz Shop or browse the UK's Caramel Baby and Child for all sorts of gorgeous European children's clothes. And make sure to keep an eye on the very good sale section! You'll find tops reduced from £62 to £24, shorts from £52 to £20, and awesome tweed coats from £150 (eep) to £60.
