I rarely buy clothes for my oldest daughter online because she is so very picky about what she lets touch her skin. Tight cuffs, buttons, care labels, embroidered designs, zippers...the list on "no's" goes on and on and on. But last year…
Love may be a burning thing... but it doesn't have to make a fiery ring. In your wallet, anyway. What am I going on about? Oh, maybe just the cutest pint-sized nod to one of the world's most notable singers. This Johnny Cash Pomade Kids'…
Though my sleep-addled brain may never forgive him for Fox in Socks , that tongue-twister of a story my son requested night after night, there is no question that Dr. Seuss' collection of fanciful stories include some of our very favorit…
I like giving my kids something cute for Valentine's Day, but how many teddy bears with hearts can a child own? This Etch A Sketch t-shirt however, had me at I love you. The tee is perfect for Valentine's Day and all year round--I'm such…
Even with two older sisters who keep him well in touch with his feminine side, it didn't take long before my son had decided pink was a "girl" color and that his sweet puppy tees should be traded for race cars and dinosaurs. But he still…
My 3-year-old is currently in the full throes of wanting to be an artiste . Paints, crayons, felt, tissue paper, googly eyes, she wants to do it all -- especially if she can wear a beret at the same time. And now there's a new shop offer…
Even though my youngest is still a baby, I can't tell you how many times I hear the other girls argue No I'm the big sister! And technically, they both are - however, my six-year-old is insistent that she's the biggest sister. I don't ev…
My daughter refused to wear anything but Hello Kitty garb for 63 days straight. True story. Then, just as we were all very (very!) Hello Kitty-ed out, she decided that she would never wear the same shirt twice. She hasn't stuck to that p…
A neighbor and I were just discussing the challenge of purchasing boy's clothes these days and we both agreed that you really do get what you pay for. And since I'm not too keen on purchasing two sets of clothes every season--sometimes m…
Given my general loathe for licensed character clothing , it's only fitting that my two-year-old has decided she will only wear clothes with Elmo on them. Makes perfect sense considering she has never actually watched Sesame Street. Ah, …
The mission of past CMP pick, Out of Print Clothing is to spread the joy of reading. Through fashion. Hey, two of our favorite things? And, now, they have expanded their collection to include t-shirts for kids. Find shirts featuring cove…
Tutus are everywhere these days (I even saw some at Costco) and little girls are wearing them everywhere and anywhere. And why not? They're little girls. Nobody's going to look at them funny. Or so we hope. Here's a fun spin on the alrea…
The concept of cool boys clothes shifts as kids get older. At first cool is defined by his mom, but mark my words, at some point -- for me it was around 7 -- your son will start to have very definite ideas on what constitutes cool and wh…
My kids love animals. Like the kind of love that renders our cat somewhat helpless when they come at him with hugs and kisses on an hourly basis. If it were up to them, our house would be a veritable Noah's Ark, but since I'm just not op…
After she watches Lion King, my kid spends most of the day running around in her pink underoos and roaring. She's being Simba, of course. But it's not really a costume she can wear out in public when she's feeling fierce. These t-shirts …
I'm a huge fan of hitting end of season sales to outfit my kids for the following year. The clothes are still cute one year later (imagine that!) and even better, I can usually score the more expensive designer brands that I've been cove…
I have a soft spot for nursery rhymes and classic kids' stories, both of which seem to be slowly dying in our age of technology and television. But the folks at Sprout San Francisco have revived one of my favorite tales with a cool new s…
In a world where it's easier to find tees for baby girls that say future gold digger than anything more...positive, I've always admired the I will make a difference tees from Booda Brand. [great offer after the jump!] The organic tees an…
If your morning routine is anything like ours is, then there's probably a lot of hemming and hawing (that's putting it very politely) about what the kids are willing to wear. Well, I have a sneaking suspicion that we could eliminate all …
We just can't get enough of the adorable knit dolls and beautiful baby mobiles from one of the fair trade pioneers in the kids category, Blabla Kids. They are consistently some of the best baby gifts out there. Truth be told, I'm a bit o…
I was hoping--praying--that the Silly Bandz craze would stay far far away from my daughter's preschool. When it hit, it hit hard, like a giant neon apocalyptic storm of wiggly plastic and shrieking children. I can completely see why some…
We love the online flash sale site, The Mini Social , because finding cool boys clothes, especially at up to 60% off , is always a challenge. But this week is extra-special since through June 18 it's Boys Week , and a portion of all the …
Oh stop it you cynics. Most dads -- especially the new ones -- would be thrilled to spend Father's Day flouting their dadness on their chest, and that of their doting progeny. So we've tracked down a few of the more clever daddy and me s…
Now that I have a boy, I finally get it. The boy stuff at kids' clothing stores is generally eclipsed by the bows, the polka dots, the kimonos, the bum ruffles. And then the boy gets a plain old striped shirt or a lame-o teddy bear when …
