kids gear

We've long been fans of Rikshaw Design's breezy bohemian line of block-printed Indian cotton voile children's bedding and beachwear for moms and kids. Last year, Rikshaw introduced several pieces of beautiful women's loungewear, and this year, the kids' line expands with the addition of Jon Jons for little boys, an adorable tunic-shaped sundress, and several new beach-ready prints.

Inspired by the vibrant shades of Jaipur, India (where artisans block-print Rikshaw's line by hand), the Spring/Summer collection is full of tropical, punchy color. Deeply saturated hues of pink, tangerine, lime, and aqua run throughout, making the look absolutely perfect for your Spring-break travels, or upcoming Summer weekends at the beach.

We all have our go-to resources for kids' basics — the big-name brands and retailers that we rely on regardless of what's trendy and new. But in the interest of avoiding kiddie closet monotony, we'd like to introduce you to 10 small-scale lines that you may or may not have already heard of but should definitely be on your radar. Here's to being the best-dressed tot on the playground!

Paris has been considered the fashion bastion of the world since black was the new black, with Parisians setting the style standard for the rest of us. It's not just the parents who are impeccably attired. French tots up the style ante as well, and with the debut of Pearls & Popcorn earlier this month, US tots will be dressed just as well as their posh Parisian peers. Debuting exclusively at Bloomingdale's, the collection features expertly tailored basics — think cardigans and slim-fitting pants in mostly solid colors — dressed up with exquisite details. The collection manages to stay on trend — stripes, lots of gray, and denim — without looking trendy. Other than the chic silhouettes, one of the sweetest elements of these clothes is the price: nothing costs over $60!

Side note: the clothes are absolutely adorable, but what's up with the creepy dancing babies on pearlsandpopcorn.com?
