Smocked Bicycle Romper for Boys

We are a cycling family. Well, actually, my husband is the cyclist and we join him if we want to see him on the weekends. Before we had children, he would go out for 3-4 hour bike rides on the weekend. Then, we had children and he was lucky if he got out on the bike at all. I heard about it A LOT.






We recently purchased the trailer bike for our daughter to be able to join him on some rides. I thought this was a win for him to get back out on his bike and a win for me to have one child with me and one with him. Naively, I thought it was bar you put on her bicycle and attached to Dad's bike. I had no idea it was another bike in and of itself. (Will the car EVER fit in the garage again?) This was very exciting and her Meme even went online for her to wear a cycling outfit like her Daddy.








I know you can already imagine where this is going. We carry the most adorable cycling romper by Remember Nguyen. They are based out of Louisiana and they created this great aqua blue romper with bicycles. This is a great outfit for any little guy, particularly if he is a part of a cycling family.















I love it with or without the classic white top by Remember Nguyen, depending on the temperature outside. We just had a customer buy the combo and thought it was an outstanding idea.



My husband once rode professionally, even raced against Lance Armstrong a few times when the future Tour de France winner was just starting out. I am nervous one of my children will want to ride down mountains very fast like Daddy did. Soccer, anyone? For now I will stick to dressing my little guy in this adorable romper.


Happy Shopping!

Helen Gordon Launches New Brand at Bubble London

Helen Gordon’s exclusive new collection is a nostalgic journey into childhood. Helen launched her business at the beginning of 2010 with a range of clothing, accessories and interior products inspired by traditional fairytales and vintage fabrics.

Her designs are classic and practical, evoking a simpler, innocent era with their use of retro patterns and naïve motifs in a striking palette of colors.

Helen trained and worked as a textile designer for 10 years before a successful career in Buying working for high street retailers. After the birth of her third child, Helen decided to develop her own range of children’s merchandise using her artistic talents and market sector experience, created around her own unique printed fabric designs. She has produced something different: the charm of vintage combined with a classic, contemporary feel.

Helen explains, “I want to make clothes and accessories that are classic in their simplicity and beautiful in design. But I also want them to be practical and appropriate: young girls shouldn’t be wearing strapless dresses and tiny bikinis. I’ve designed bright clothes which are fun and funky, which evoke an era of simpler childhood and which let kids be kids.”

Bee-Bee Organic Baby and Kid's Loungewear at Bubble London Trade Show

Ethical baby fashion brand bee-bee launched its new collection of organic lounge wear for babies and kids at Bubble London.

Agnes explains, "I was expecting my first child Josephine when I attended the conference and was appalled to find out how harmful on the environment the cotton industry can be. I realized there was a niche in the market to create eco-friendly baby clothes that would help protect the environment as well as the baby’s sensitive skin."

Mim-Pi has also entered into some extraordinary collaborations. For example, Mim-Pi has created an exclusive design in conjunction with the ladies from All The Luck in The World. And Fien, a little girl with Down syndrome, won MIM-PI'S NEXT TOP MODEL and shows the prettiest dresses as a highly competent catwalk queen. She is the perfect example of 'Let the sun shine down on me!' To sum it all up, this is a wonderfully sunny summer collection.

Hip Girly-girly
With Lolita-like frilly dresses and skirts, jumpsuits, tunics, leggings and the prettiest frocks and, of course, loads of T-shirts with brightly coloured retro embroidered appliqués like Bambi and little horses, Mim-Pi dares to mix it up.

The Blythe dolls (which the designer collects) and animal figures that Leonora discovered while travelling form the basis for the prints and give the designs an amazing effect. Thus, even the most girly pink dress is given a zesty twist The prints are cute and naïve at the same time and appeal directly to children.

Marithé+François Girbaud Children's Collection Fall/Winter 2010 - Bubble London Trade Show

The Marithé+François Girbaud children's collection for Fall/Winter 2010 mirrors the "Washdelux" theme of the adult line, a response to the desire to "wash" away the entrenched notions of luxury and begin writing a new story. The collection plays with the fashion codes and bows roguishly to the glitz and ambiance of a glittering gala…but with a razor sharp edge!

Navy Delux
Rules blur and the barriers break! The silhouettes abandon the rules and indulge in all kinds of variations. Gray denim can be impeccable or ultra-"used" looking, worn with a rock'n'roll leather jacket feminized with floral studs. The light-as-air quilted jackets take on A-line shapes with a surprising sense of volume. Engraved “coat of arms” buttons and M+FG emblems subvert the uniform of young sailors on leave in a wool pea coat.

Red Delux
The staging is electric, luminescent, pulsating. The winter tone is set : a shift from shadows to light ! A range of warm luminescent colors, from orange to vermillion, is blended with a plush "crafty grey." The materials engage in eye-catching clashes, matt and shiny effects collide. Borrowed from adultswear, the outsized polyshape memory check sits alongside a rustic cavalry twill.


Black Delux
Opulence.Luxury: a Marithé+François Girbaud definition of Delux! The elegant look defines a new "casual deluxe" style, blurring the boundaries between masculine and feminine. The stripe of the men's suit appears on deconstructed jackets, worn over easygoing tapered pants. Mini-me "Washdelux" and "Boyfriend series" tee-shirts are worn over jeans — Boyfriend jeans, of course!

DKNY KIDS Autumn/Winter 2010 - Bubble London Trade Show

From the Broadway music theaters to the Bowery underground concerts, the eclectic musical vibrations of New York have inspired a DKNY kids collection imbued with an electric and energetic attitude - just like the Big Apple! Glamorous or slightly rebellious, authentic and trendy, the DKNY Autumn/Winter 2010 collection sets a furious pace for the season!

New York City
The start of the season combines the city chic look with daring glamorous touches.
The masculine/feminine style has a casual look, lending itself to all kinds of shapes and volumes: tapered loose-fitting trousers in woven flannel, rolled up at the bottom. Like the shorts, they can be worn with clean city jackets.

City Jean
An assumed femininity blends with the military style codes, in an effervescent mix of genres! Fluid Tencel trousers are worn tied at the waist, with partially tucked-in shirts. Heavy-gauge sweaters are matched with used denims, and the woollen cloth three-quarter length coat is customised with a casual hood.

City Rock
The atmosphere becomes electric...to the rhythm of underground music, DKNY brilliantly revives the rock attitude of the late 80s. The short jacket, in an extra-small denim version, and the studded leather jacket regain their status as key pieces, mixed with bleached black jeans.

Timberland Kidswear Collection Autumn/Winter 2010 - Bubble London Trade Show

From summit to sea, the Timberland Autumn/Winter 2010 kids collection explores the many faces of an authentic, unspoiled land - New England. The outdoors and the environment preservation are the core of this collection, which resonates with the brand's commitment to environmental protection.

Drawn from the heart of Timberland’s geographical roots, the inspirations are contemporary and imbued with a new energy, from the Harvard campuses to the industrial docks of Boston... and of course the great outdoors!

Nature asserts its rights: Timberland awakens our ecological consciences with committed messages and some Earthkeepers outfits featured throughout the whole collection, designed using eco-friendly material (organic cotton, recycled polar fleece) and treatments (water prints).

To enjoy trekking in great outdoors, Timberland launches this season a new technical line inspired by the Adultswear apparel line “TMA Mountain Athletics”.

The design is functional, offering boys who are eager for freedom and movement a comfortable, daring line, without compromising on style!

ELLE Children's Collection Fall/Winter 2010 at Bubble London Trade Show

The ELLE children's collection offers a subtle distillation of the latest trends, decoded and reinterpreted. The 2010 Fall/Winter collection has one foot in the classroom and the other in the parks of Paris, drawing inspiration from retro-chic or contemporary looks. ELLE has created a wardrobe made up of the season's basics and irresistible fashion pieces, for a warm, light-spirited winter!

Tableau noir
As back to school period starts, ELLE allows little girls to use their imagination at the blackboard! In the streets of Paris the feel is retro-chic, slyly evoking François Truffaut's film "The 400 Blows". Recalling a schoolchild's notebook, the check pattern plays up on blouses or in skirts with an emphasized waist, in high-contrast linings. The silhouette is crafted to look light and structured. A-line dresses take on pared-down lines, while Bermuda shorts and trousers in gray stretch satin are highlighted by thin candy-pink piping.


Rendez-vous d’automne
Fall will be the new "grand season" with ELLE! On an outing with her girlfriends in the parks of Paris, our schoolgirl shows off the nuances of warm orange-tinged colors, sprinkled with flowers to enliven the autumn.  For a casual, trendy look, girls can opt for “liberty” prints on tunic dresses and on blouses to be worn with straightforward clean denim. Adorned with yarn embroidery, in boot-cut jeans or shorts with suspenders, and even in a boyish vest, denim lends itself to every variation!

Star Diva
To end the year on a beautiful note, a contemporary feminine story, imbued with dreamy poetry… to be worn in an everyday or dress-up version!  Winter is aglow with sparkling paste detailing on the tops, while slim vinyl belts emphasize the waist of velvet trousers. ELLE has its head in the clouds with an all-over print of a starry sky, or silhouetting the graceful outline of a little girl taking flight.

Stars and Stripes, Fathers and Daughters

Sending smocked and classic clothing out gives us a thrill. Why? Because we know soon some lucky darling will be wearing these wonderful clothes. If there was a special event planned, we'd like to imagine the outfit would add a little extra something to it. We can only guess what happens once the package goes out. Were there compliments given? Were pictures taken that will be treasured for years to come?

Every once in a while we get a little glimpse into what actually happens. We are always interested, probably because there usually is some fun story and pictures that are offered up. Sometimes, the customer even gives us permission to mention it in our blog...

Recently, we were contacted by an Army wife stationed in Italy. She had found the Jeanine Johnsen flag dress on our website and thought it was perfect for her husband's upcoming commissioning ceremony. Their daughter was to be a part of the ceremony and her father was being promoted to Lt. Colonel. And she was kind enough to allow us to post the pictures - congratulations and best wishes to the whole family!

As the July 4th holiday approaches, it is nice to be reminded of the many brave men and women who fight for our country. My brother safely returned from a tour in Afghanistan and Iraq and we fly our American flag with pride for all our servicemen.

You can expect some sort of July 4th themed clothing at Maison de Belles Choses year after year. I enjoy seeing children in smocked flag dresses or, for example, the appliqued truck with stars by Funtasia. I have been very pleased with the July 4th series of bathing suits from Bailey Boys as well.

Pili Pala Childrenswear Launch Organic Collection at Bubble London Trade Show

Sunday was the first day of the Bubble London Kids Trade Show and Pili Pala Childrenswear launched its new organic collection.

Strengthening Pili Pala's ethos of ethically produced clothes that are made to last, the new collection again contains pieces which are both unisex and trans-seasonal with funky design-led garments using the softest organic cotton, velour and recycled fabric.

Pili Pala’s founder, Berith Lochery, explains, “Following the success of our first two collections I wanted to increase our offer to both our retailers and consumers. Our ethos of producing funky, practical clothes in the softest organic cotton should be applied to underwear too. More and more parents appreciate the quality of our organic garments and it seemed natural to introduce underwear into the collection.”

Smocked Clothing Belongs in the Zoo!

Some of my friends say I've gone over the deep end. Others say I'm obsessed. As long as they're talking about me and smocked clothing, I'd have to confess they're probably right. Take yesterday, for example. A simple trip to the Oakland Zoo with friends means... you guessed it... zoo-animal themed smocked clothing for the kids! (A tip for visitors to the Bay Area - the Oakland Zoo is better than the San Francisco Zoo, though as a San Franciscan I hate to admit it.)







What could be more fun than putting your child in an outfit with the design of their favorite zoo animal and then heading down to the zoo? It's like they have a special connection or are in the club with the critters. We went to visit the pediatrician for our daughter's annual. The Doctor looked at her palms and asked, "Do you like the Monkey Bars?" Busted! The evidence was there - callouses from swinging to and 'fro like the monkeys do!

Here she is caught in the act.





Naturally, Molly opted for the Monkey Bishop dress. Zuccini Smocked Clothing has a hutch-full of the stuff . Usually it's a trio of our simian pals lined up front and center like the classic "Hear no evil, See no evil, Speak no evil" minus the hand gestures. Generally they're posing like you would imagine monkeys do - one arm up, one arm down, swinging from trees, etc. Zuccini makes a great set for girls and boys. The Smocked Monkey Jumper and Blouse is a pretty combination and the Boys Smocked John John would make any monkey sympathizer proud!




























Meanwhile back in the Amphibian house we saw blue South American Tree Frogs that are so poisonous that if you touch them it is fatal - for you. These little guys supply the poison found in the famous "poison darts". I'm not sure how the poison goes from the frog to the dart, but somehow the natives are able to do it (built up immunity? special gloves?) Usually frogs are looked upon as non-toxic and certainly this is true on any smocked clothing, as our son would attest if he could talk yet. This was Mom's choice for his Zoo trip (he is 16 months and easygoing when it comes to clothing choice - got to take advantage of it while it lasts!) Here's a picture of the little man fortifying himself with a pancake pre-Zoo.


Claire and Charlie have gilded the lily with their selection for boys and girls. The Boys Smocked Frog Shortall is great for a hot summer day at the zoo, and the Girls Smocked Purple Gingham Frog Bishop Dress also keeps it cool with it's sleeve design.















One incredibly cool feature of the Oakland Zoo is a chairlift. Yes, just like the ones at a ski resort. You get a bird's-eye view of the Zoo, the Bay, and even San Francisco in the distance. Down below we saw a lion sleeping, camels, elephants, bison, and all kinds of other animals, including the best giraffe yard I've ever seen. I captured this giraffe relaxing on the ground, which I imagine is just like capturing a shark sleeping or a snake jumping in the air.



Giraffes have a coloring that ranks up in coolness with anything Mother Nature has to offer. It might not surprise you to hear it from me but there are giraffes featured on smocked clothing. Alennys has two outfits for boys and girls. The Smocked Giraffe Boys Longall is in light cotton, and the giraffes have raised fur and a puffed yarn tail. The Girls Giraffe Smocked Romper in pink and white gingham also features a yarn tail.




























For those who can't make up their mind which animal to choose or have a child that loves them all, why not go on Safari and have them all? It's Zuccini again, with the Boys Smocked Safari Longall.















One of the best parts of any trip to the Zoo is what you haul back to the house: tired kids!
