Trick or Treat!!

Smell my feet! Halloween 2014 is here and there are some new children's costumes to check out on the market. Two major movies released this year - Frozen and Guardians of the Galaxy - have inspired many little trick-or-treaters to dress like their favorite new characters.


The number of Frozen princesses running around this Halloween will be countless. Girls can choose to be Elsa the snow princess, Anna the hero princess, or Olaf the snowman. This film was a huge hit, and every costume store will have these options. 


 I have to be honest, I didn't see Guardians of the Galaxy, but I'm sure many little boys did. If there's one thing boys love to dress up as, it's monsters. These characters are just unique enough for them to change their identity into that of the inhuman.

And for all those Duck Dynasty fans out there, Halloween hasn't forgotten about you. Also new this year are Uncle Si and Willie costumes for you and your babies. Who wouldn't wanna see their one year old in a full grown grey beard?

Happy Halloween!!

Borrowed from the (Big) Boys

Who else has been seeing bucket hats appearing more and more? Worn most popularly by rappers such as Schoolboy Q, Earl Sweatshirt, and Mac Miller, this blast from the past is having a makeover. Brands such as Supreme and Milkcrate are making them in vibrant patterns and colors, and they are super popular among teenage to young adult men.

And now, WGSN has picked up on this trend sticking with children as well. Reports for S/S 15 show the bucket hat not for boys, but for girls! Granted, it has almost always been used as a sun hat for babies at the beach, but now it's making its way into the world of style instead.
