mini style. food fight.

when it comes to kids' clothes, it seems girls have a lot more options. especially here in our warm, sunshiny state, the stylish option to layer boys up in collared shirts and sweaters or jackets...well, just isn't an option. (we're lucky if we can even get them to wear shirts on a hot day!). so with jeans, shorts, and tees as standard uniform, i try to make them fun tees and cool jeans with some killer shoes.

the other thing with kids? they grow too fast. all the clothes mini-he received as gifts years ago all-of-a-sudden fit. his t-shirt drawer is overflowing, and he has more shoes than any boy should have. i started him a 'closet' on the recently launched marketplace, because they grow too fast (www.btgtf.com), where i can sell or swap his pre-loved clothes, or buy new-to-him ones.

and for all you big kids (a.k.a. adults), you can start a closet on their sister site, because i shop too much.

a yummylicious "thank-you" from a friend. mini-he and i devoured this as soon as we got home. oops...sorry mini-she!
(ae kids tee; denizen jeans, old navy shoes)

I have two boys and I agree that it is much harder to find things for boys. The boys section of most stores is so small that it takes a lot more effort to find stylish clothes.

That's a pretty cute outfit! I get what you mean...I always felt sorry for boys because their clothing options were so boring (well, before I started trying to not be girly, I mean...) At least you have vests for summer layering to make it look a little more stylish? If he'll put up with them, of course.

That's awesome you do that, because kids outgrow things so fast. I love his tee and tennis shoes! Too cute!
