The Best Onesies & Kid’s Tees
It’s true you can get a tee shirt for your wee one anywhere. Finding one that stands out and oozes style is a whole other matter. We came across an e-boutique that has done all the searching and only offers the latest and most hip finds around. Start A Food Fight is the name of the shop and it carries a who’s who in the kids tee shirt and onesie world. We were impressed by the selection of celeb fave’s like Appaman and Inky Dink, and also pleased to see fresh brands that we’d never heard of like Little Traveler and Jeeto. Love that the selection runs from sporty, to vintage to girly…tee’s to fit all personalities. To make this mommy owned shop even more cool, the tees are packaged in a retro looking hot dog container…so unbelievably hip and it will totally be the best wrapped gift at the next baby shower you go to (Angie and Brad will love it…you were invited, weren’t you?).

KUURU SHOES is owned by a mom who saw a need for chic, stylish childrens shoes that can stand up to a day at the playground and beyond. She wanted comfy and fashionable all rolled into one so she designed the shoes that make up KUURU’S brilliant line herself. So smart! The colors are spectacular (just check out that shade of burgundy up there) and the details are simple yet eye catching. Love the flowers on the peep toe mary janes.

French & Fabulous: Black Rabbit Clothes
Every once in a while we come across a clothing company that really blows us away with it’s original designs and impeccable style. The longer we search for fresh childrens wear, the more difficult we are to please. Fortunately we stumbled upon the fabulous BLACK RABBIT, a gorgeous company that makes classic and sophisticated wear for children. We love the French look and feel to these pieces, from the clean lines to the luxurious fabrics. Also high on our list is the unexpected details you’ll find in each piece, whether it’s the patterned lining, or a brilliant button placed just so. We have two of their linen jackets and love the lined inside as much as the chic outside of each one. Paired with jeans and a funky pair of mary janes, my little girl is ready for anywhere the day may take her. BLACK RABBIT’S tops, lounge wear and jackets are made for passing along to your grand kids after your wee ones are done with them…they are just that beautiful. We only wished they made them for mommies too. BLACK RABBIT would appeal to little Suri’s sophisticated style and Apple’s individuality. KATIE likes to dress her daughter in French clothes, as we all know, so if she hasn’t heard of BLACK RABBIT yet, she’ll rush out and buy some once she reads this… Agree?

Must Have:Harley and Axle
One celeb couple that just oozes rocker chic style is Nicole Richie and Joel Madden. They just look effortlessly hip. It’s no wonder that their little Harlow is dressed so stylishly too. When we heard that this mommy and daddy picked up a few outfits from Sandbox Rebel, we had to know more. Papa Joel picked his wee one up some threads made by Harley and Axle, a funky line of onesies, tees and dresses. Our favorite from this fresh line? Their vintage dresses and the rocket ship onesie. Retro and urban, with some whimsical fun thrown in too. It’s just what you’d expect Harlow’s super glam mother to dress her little girl in. We predict HARLEY and AXLE will be huge in the children’s clothing world…cool clothes, fabulous details and a fashionable celeb following are definite signs of big things to come.

Agoo Has You Covered For Fun & Play
Now that the summer sun and heat have arrived, we’ve been searching for versatile clothes that will keep our tot comfy and current. We heard about this fab Canadian company called AGOO and thought we’d road test their athletic line. Agoo’s motto is “Stay Out and Play” and their clothes let your kids do just that. We needed something that our wee one could wear to the park, beach and toss on with a funky pair of jeans to have lunch out with Mommy and Daddy, and their Raglan Long Sleeved shirt fit the bill perfectly. It’s made of fabric that’s stain resistant (go ahead…spill that pasta, dribble some OJ), and stretchy and it also wicks away moisture and offers UV protection. We must admit though that the colors, cuts and styles of this urban line is what has us really tickled. Sporty with some edge, about time someone thought of it. We love the look of their baby line too…black onesies are a mommies best friend! Get outside and stay there with Agoo’s help at www.agoo4u.com
Boon Baby Clothes Have Arrived
You know BOON for their funky and functional baby gear. Who doesn’t own a Frog Pod? If you don’t , you should. It’s fabulous. We love their innovative feeding utensils and dishes…so modern and useful. Now the smarties at BOON have designed hip and original onesies, rompers and pant sets. First thing that caught our stylish eye was the fresh bold colors and the modern designs they chose. Love the DNA pattern in turquoise, and it’s perfect for that new little boy in your life. Finally a onesie without little boats or puppies! Also impressive was how well these onesies wash, which we all know is what makes or breaks it for us mommies. If it fades too fast or pills, then forget about it. BOON’S onesies wear well and wash perfectly. No fading yet and they get softer with each wash. No wonder BOON’S so popular in Hollywood.
