Back-To-School Must Haves for …

June 26, 2018 By admin

This post is sponsored by Babbleboxx on behalf of Justice

It’s crazy hard to believe but my not-so-little globetrotter is headed to fourth grade this fall. With every back-to-school season, we’ve faced decisions about clothing, school supplies and accessories and each year, her opinions become more and more important.

While I sometimes have to veto her decisions (think poor quality, obscene pricing, and plain ugliness), this year I’m thrilled with her back-to-school picks from Justice.

Back-to-School Must Haves for Tweens

Justice has all the fashionable girls clothing that tweens want and affordable pricing and positive messaging that moms’ love. Shopping for clothing for girls can lead to meltdowns but Justice really understands their mini-customers, with so many options for girls to piece together outfits that reflect their individuality and fit their busy lifestyles, all with an extra dose of fun.

Backpacks for Girls

The most important back-to-school item is a great backpack and my daughter is super excited to start using this shimmery pink flip sequin initial backpack for fourth grade.

Flipping sequins are her current love, the large G makes her feel like it was made especially for her and the pink, aqua, purple (flipping to pink and silver) shades will easily match her entire wardrobe. Since we walk to school, I’m always concerned about her backpack being heavy so I was happy to see the padded back straps.

The elasticized side pocket for water bottles is a must-have as well as the spacious interior for books and lunch box. There are also roomy pockets for school supplies and random items like slime and hair clips. She brings a backpack on our travels too so it needs to be sturdy and this one passes the test with solid zippers and strong seams. Oh, and according to my daughter, the pink pompom keychain is awesome.

Stylish Accessories to Keep Girls Organized

My daughter starts the year organized but by winter, her room, backpack and school folders are a mess. We’ve talked about a plan to stay better organized this year since fourth grade is the real deal and these three accessories will be a big help.

A matching lunchbox is a chic pick for tweens and this flipping sequin number is sure to please girls and parents alike. My daughter loves the flip sequins and initial design while I love that the interior is easy to wash. Win-win.

Pens, pencils, highlighters, rulers and protractors need to stay safe and this clear pencil case with floating sequins offers these items a pretty home. Gotta love the FEARLESS messaging on this too.

This matching sequin initial wristlet is perfect for bake-sale money and other small items.

Girls can never have enough cute tops and nothing is more comfy for kids and easy to wash for moms as a t-shirt. This colorful girls top features metallic accents, cute summer graphics and funny captions. She styled it with comfy pink shorts trimmed with pom poms and pink heart shades. I love that the sizing is true with a little extra length which is nice because my daughter and her classmates are often sitting on the floor.

How fun do these items look together?

New Kidpik Subscription Boxes …

April 20, 2016 By admin

Do you have a picky little fashionista in your house? If so, this post about the new Kidpik subscription box is for you! Living in NYC, families get so many things delivered in a box (from groceries to shoes) because online shopping is typically easier, faster and much less complicated than venturing out to a store with kids in tow. When I heard that a new subscription clothing box was launching for girls (size 4-14!) just in time for our spring and summer travels, I immediately wanted in.

My 6-year old has become super opinionated about her clothes and preferences seem to change on a weekly basis so we were both super excited to sign up for a Kidpik subscription box. The site was very easy to navigate and my daughter loved being able to select her own preferences. Kids plug in details about their location, clothing likes and dislikes, favorite patterns and colors.

This was my daughter’s first time setting up an account for a website and she felt so grown up getting to make her own password and select her fashion preferences. It was so fun watching her carefully make her selections even though some made me cringe (imagine lime, pink and mint tie-dye maxi skirts!). Kids can specify if they don’t wear specific items, select details like skirt lengths and vote on how much sparkle they like or don’t like. The final step was selecting favorite outfits from a selection of photos and choosing favorite places to shop.

The custom styled boxes typically include five to seven items like tops, bottoms, dresses, layering pieces, shoes and accessories that make multiple mix and match outfits. Shipping and returns are free so there really isn’t much to risk. You can also exchange sizes and return or donate items you don’t love which is a nice perk.

The box arrived and it was a hit! Girls fashion has sure come a long way since the Garanimals I used to wear. The items included two fun sparkly t-shirts, a stylish top featuring a colorful pineapple, a black and white striped maxi skirt, yellow skinny jeans, a white jean jacket, adorable mary-jane sneakers (in a nice travel tote), iron on patches and a glittery headband. Everything was super cute, age-appropriate, high-quality and most important…comfortable.

We have trips to Florida and the Caribbean coming up so I know this white jean jacket and the white sneakers will get a lot of wear.

Initially, my daughter was not thrilled with the yellow jeans because she thought all jeans were blue but once she tried them on she changed her mind.

The items are meant to be mixed and matched together but they will also coordinate nicely with items you already own.

Here’s the best part…if you keep all items, the discounted price is approximately $75 per box or $12.50 per item!  Fun fashion styles, high quality goods and affordable pricing means we will be back for another box.

Cute and Comfy Pajamas for …

October 3, 2014 By admin

I always pack my favorite pajamas when I travel so when I pack my daughter’s suitcase, I always make sure to bring her favorite comfy pajamas along too.

While my daughter still has a soft spot for princess nightgowns, she likes her pajamas a little more “grown up looking” now that she’s almost five (going on 15…). I sometimes miss seeing her in footsie pjs but I am really enjoying watching her try on new “big-girl” styles like these adorable yet modern Girl’s Side Patch Pajamas from Little Twig and Sparrow (deal alert: Little Twig and Sparrow discount code below).

Made from Peruvian cotton, Little Twig and Sparrow’s pajamas are super soft yet made to last. The patch designs are fun for boys and girls and a refreshing change from the all the kiddie prints. They’re perfect for home or away and each pair comes in its own cotton travel bag so you won’t accidentally forget to pack the top or bottoms. How fun are these boy and girl designs? On some styles, the patches are made out of velour. Too cute!

Ready to snap some up, click https://littletwigandsparrow.com/coupon/twig10 and you’ll automatically save $10 on every pair and receive free shipping!

Whether your kids are lounging around the Jacuzzi in a tropical paradise or vegging on the sofa, these pajamas are sure to please. And by the way, while I wish I had a balcony Jacuzzi here in NYC, these pictures were taken on our recent Dominican Republic vacation. More on that to come…

Have a great weekend!
