I am so excited about today's post and about my new sponsors, who had me with just their name,  Dirt and Noise ! It is a  multi label kids clothing shop and as  they say " an urban-inspired, fashion-forward, get-in-the-dirt-and-play kind of store ", oh yeah - completely my style! The New Jersey based boutique and e-shop is founded by the lovely Melissa Adler who with her long experience in the fashion industry has curated a great selection of super cool kids clothing brands like Nununu , Molo Kids , Kira , Prefresh , Petitbo , Munster Kids ,   Sweet Luka Mo  and lots more, many of which I have already written about in the blog. I especially wanted to show you the awesome new look book they have created for the Christmas holidays 2014. It is full of inspirational and unconventional styles and proposals, lots of fun and above all full of rock & roll!!!

Duchess and Lion - Cool kidswear made in the USA

Image
I love jumpsuits, it should be a mandatory item in every closet; babies, kids, adults... Well it certainly is in mine ;) It is such an easy and comfortable garment, perfect for wild play and at the same time adds a special coziness when chilling out at home. The new children's clothing label  Duchess and Lion makes some of the coolest jumpsuits for kids I have seen in a long time! Duchess and Lion is a family run business from San Francisco featuring vintage inspired designs with a modern twist. Everything is ethically made from scratch in the USA to ensure fair trade conditions for all the workers involved. They have a sense for picking out and combining exquisite fabrics, and I love the cool detail of actually using real, vintage war patches on some garments making them 100% unique.  Awesome, right? I have been crushing on this brand since I first discovered them in the lovely blog  Petit & Small  not so long ago. As you can see in the photos, they obviously make other garm

Today i wanted to show you a brand that has been on my to do list since I first discovered them early this summer...

Today I am really excited to show you a sneak peak from the super cool Australian kidswear brand Bandit Kids ' upcoming spring collection 2015 , only just released on their website , woohoo! I have written about Bandit Kids on  several occasions , cause it is a brand I am completely crazy about. I love their style, their perfect and absolutely beautiful message " All kids are cool " and their upcoming collection is REALLY promising! Great vintage colors and prints, and as always fantastic lifestyle photography full of ambiance.  The collection is inspired by past memories of long summer holidays with empty pools, faded plastic flamingos on the dry lawn, sticky ice cream melting onto your hands - A combination of classic vintage with a happy and warm summertime boredom feeling. Welcome to   the " Kingdom of Cool "... Oh yes, it's going to be awesome! And I am sure Bandit Kids are going to leak out more cool shots on their fabulous Instagram , which you canno

Kira Kids Autum-Winter 2014/15 - Quirky kids clothes made in USA

Image
Kira Kids is another kidswear brand I have completely fallen head over heals for! I love their quirky, unisex style with fun illustrations and their new autumn collection 2014 is a blast. I have a thing for weird foods on kids clothes, so when I saw those pretzels and specially that hot dog with mustache and top hat, I just had to share it with you ;) Their AW14 'Big City' collection is inspired by the buzzing life in New York City, the typical street food munchies and the stories and adventures every street corner hides. Their super cool look book has a funky retro air and is shot by the ever brilliant Flannery O'Kafka and styled by Ashley Gibson . Nice, right?! On top of it, all of their garments are made in the USA and they use non-toxic water based ink for their prints. Swing by the Kira Kids website for more info or find your nearest stockist here .

Milk & Biscuits Autumn-Winter 2014/15 kids fashion collection

Image
I love the new Milk & Biscuits collection! It's a limited, but very well made collection with a cool mix of casual styles combined with more traditional cuts and always maintaining that special, quirky British flair. The Anglo-Chinese kids clothing brand was founded in 2013 by the experienced art director Kate Smith who fell in love with a Shangheinese man on one of her travels in Asia. Many years later and with a couple of kids in the middle, they came up with the lovely Milk & Biscuits. This season's look book is shot by the brilliant photographer Michelle Marshall . The scene is an old school 70's photo booth reviving those fun and crazy "retro selfie" moments. It is such a cool idea and completely sets the mood of the collection, it sure does leave most of us with a smirky smile on our face thinking back on those times, right?!  My two favorites from the Milk & Biscuits AW14 collection  are the cool  Herring bone denim sweatshirt  and that fab swe

Izzy & Ferd - A storytelling new kidswear brand

Image
My daughter loves wearing clothes that invite to storytelling, clothes that inspire and stimulate that wonderful imagination kids have. The new kidswear brand  Izzy & Ferd (I.F.) is exactly about that, they are a portal to a story of discovery and adventure. As they say, they make clothes for the curious and their brand name is actually inspired by the great patrons of exploration, Queen Isabella and King Ferdinan of Spain, who sponsored Christopher Columbus' voyage to America, being the question "What I.F." that got him that far... So those 500 little "what I.F.'s" we hear during the day are now going to be tripled! Can you take it? Of course you can!!! The Izzy & Ferd "20.000 Leagues" AW14 collection is now available in their webshop  or you can check this retailer list for more options.
