For along time now kids styling has been passion of mine. Having 3 boys with different styles, shapes and sizing was tricky to find what I loved especially in the high street stores, I would stroll around the shops coming home empty handed because there was nothing that excited me.
Around a year ago I entered into the world of Instagram shopping and I fell in love, I finally found my way, styling my boys became a walk in the park. What I love is that the clothing is made for children not for gender! quite often at the start I found myself pushing boundaries questioning myself is this to girlie, why why why did I do that society has made us think boys cannot wear leggings because they are made for girls boys should not wear pink because its a girls colour! this is all so stupid and I am here to encourage other mums to dress your child how you want to and step out of your comfort zone, if you like the print then go for it.
What I would love to see in the near future is high street stores having a unisex section. there are so many items of clothing that need to be in it. I always shop in girl sections some of my best buys the last few months have been from Zara girl section. I will attach a photo of Luca wearing the leopard print jumper from girls Zara and you can see he totally rocks it.
Items of clothing I think work amazing for children - rompers or dungarees work amazing on boys and girls and what I love is you can add a cool top which changes it from a casual stroll in the woods to an evening dinner with the family. Leggings are great to you can get some amazing prints and really have fun with these and they are also super comfy for the little ones. What makes an outfit? adding the right hat is always a winner for me it completes an outfit but if you have one of them kids that screams at the sight of a hat think about shoes or a super cool coat.
Im now going to list some shops that have helped me along my journey of styling my boys, all of the shops you will find on Instagram. -
