Tights For Boys: Ga Ga or Gag?

babysugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 09:30:04 -0800

Mommies wouldn't balk at the sight of tights in the girls' section but what if she saw them hanging near the boxers and briefs? Ladies enjoy the comfort and warmth they provide so why shouldn't their male counterparts? In the Victorian era, men wore tights regularly just like their lady friends. Perhaps in an effort to bring a blast from the past, the Swedish clothes manufacturer H&M is bringing tights back in a whole new way.

The $12 pair of navy car adorned stockings may have some mums and pops looking confused or horrified. Still some may find them practical and brilliant.

What's your take on them?

Trendtotting: Cuddly and Chic Oeuf Winter Sweaters

LilSugar — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 07:00:38 -0800

'Tis the season for chunky sweaters and warm woolen mittens no matter where you rest your sled and these Winter sweaters from Oeuf ($88-$120) offer a cuddly and chic package that suits any lil elf.

The entire collection is ravishing, but I'm partial to the Hug Me Sweater ($96), which has mitten-shaped pockets. The notion of forking over near $100 for a sweater may seem silly, but having seen this line at a boutique I can attest that it has a timeless, heirloom quality. And besides, anyone who has spent a pretty penny on a holiday sweater knows fine knit doesn't come cheaply.

Birthday Girl Gear: Plain, But Pretty Party Tees

There's nothing sweeter than being the birthday girl! If your lil darling shuns the tutu and crown look on her big day wrap her up in a tee that evokes visions of cupcakes, candles and presents, but is still subtle enough for a soiree at the park or a classroom fete.

The 1st Birthday Cupcake Tee ($20) presents a delightful package for a 365-day-old celebration, without the sugar overload.

It's Heeeeere... Stella McCartney's Gap Collection!

babysugar — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 09:00:16 -0700

Stylish mamas can breathe again... the wait is over! When word broke that Stella McCartney was going to design a line of children's clothes for GapKids and BabyGap, fashion forward mums were chomping at the bit to get a peek at what would surely be a fabulous line sheet. And like she always does, mama Stella delivered.

I can't decide if Ellen Pompeo inspired her chic gray matter or if the late pop icon Michael Jackson had any influence on the rock star royalty's thrilling juvenile look. Perhaps it is a mashup of the two that produced the zippered skinny jeans, leopard faced dress, a "Bad" military jacket, and the oh-so-cute pink ombre layered tutu. Whatever it was, we're lovin' the kick back to the 80s for our wee ones.

Celebaby Style: Thandie Newton and Her Fashionable Mini Mes

babysugar — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 12:30:03 -0700

I've had a mom crush on Thandie Newton for some time but it has since evolved into a family crush. The British beauty's petite features were passed down to her two darling daughters who also have a spunky sense of style and sass. The adorable girls, Ripley, 9, and Nico, 5, have their mother's delicious complexion and her sculpted cheeks. On top of those lovely characteristics, they also have fab hair that distinguishes the pair and gives them each something to strut about.

Aside from their inherent good looks, the young ladies appear to have quite a fabulous wardrobe. Lil Nico worked the red carpet of the Fantastic Mr. Fox London premiere in her sparkly leggings, velvet blazer and old school kicks. Big sister Ripley rocked her Juicy leopard hooded jacket, fruity Nikes and equine necklace. There's no doubt that the mini mes know how to dress themselves up for a flashy affair.

LilSugar — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 09:30:41 -0700

You can make your darling's wishes come true with an official Disney costume (they sure know how to make a mama's life easy!) or make your own using the character's token colors and style.

Wee Ones Get the Glittered Glove For Halloween

babysugar — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 04:00:41 -0700

If you wanna be startin' somethin' this Halloween, try dressing baby up like Michael Jackson! Kids will get a kick out of the glittered glove, flashy socks and the buckle beveled jacket. Add some flair to the look with a curly 80's wig for a complete "Thriller" look. When they get a piece of candy, they can holler, "Shamone" and if mama can teach them to moonwalk, the big candy bars are sure to find their way into the cavernous pumpkins.

What do you think of the look? Is it a "Thriller" or should the costume "Beat It"?

Honor Warren Takes the Skinny Jean Route to Class

LilSugar — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 15:15:49 -0700

Little Honor Warren is turning into more of a chip off the old block than we expected! Still sporting the comfy headband that her trendy mom Jessica Alba also wears, the budding fashionista was seen taking some wobbly steps in a pair of of-the-moment skinny jeans.

The adorable toddler was en route to a music class in Beverly Hills with her nanny when photographers caught her channeling her inner hipster in the jeans, a hoodie and a pair of comfortable sneakers. The 15-month-old must have heard that skinny jeans are not just on most mama's Fall shopping lists, but on their kids' lists too.

Honor's mom recently told People magazine that she is trying to raises the youngster to be bilingual, singing and reading to her in both English and Spanish, while practicing the Spanish words for different colors.
