Baby's First Steps (On the Mountain!)

Winter is quickly approaching - and so is snow! I'm getting more and more excited the colder it gets because I cannot wait to have my legs dangling off a lift with my ski poles in hand. The love I have for skiing will likely be passed on to my children, and buying them all their little ski gear will be so much fun. You'd be surprised at just how many tiny kids you see on skis, and even more surprised to see how much better they are at skiing than you. 

For the moms and dads who plan on putting their kids on skis as soon as they can walk, this post is for you. Brands like Patagonia and Spyder have the perfect gear for your soon-to-be mountain junkie.

All clothing and gear (except skis) can be found at winterkids.com.

Adorable but Affordable

This week, we're doing a complete 180 from last week's post. That was all about the almost unachievable, the priciest garments for your baby. It is indeed possible to have a chic child with affordable clothing, if you know where to look.

I know it's only November, but the holidays are approaching fast and it's never too early to shop for holiday outfits for your toddler. The dress ($22) is from Target, the tweed coat ($31) is from Old Navy, mittens ($4) are from amazon, and the lacy socks ($2) and shoes ($20) are from Payless. Who says you need to spend a fortune to look cute?

This holiday boys' look is a classic. The green shirt ($10) from Old Navy, sweater vest ($20) from Macy's, chino pants ($12) from Target, and brown oxford shoes ($25) from Payless perfectly display holiday spirit together, all while costing you less.

Toddlers and Tom Ford

It seems like everyone just can't get enough of today's most famous babies: Blue Ivy Carter and North West. Both parented by some of the wealthiest people in America, they are unknowingly being dressed in top notch designers. Today, we're taking a peek into the world of expensive children's wear.
