Eco Brand of the Month: Sprout Watches

Accessories are key to any good outfit don't you think? Our Eco Brand of the Month is a company all about making fashion-foward watches and accessories, AND doing it with sustainable materials! Let me introduce you to Sprout Watches. They are an awesome company that makes their products of out materials like cork, bamboo, and organic cotton. The boys LOVE them. As you can see Tyler pretty much wanted to wear ALL of the watches at the same time. The boys especially love the cork watches and they are fascinated by the fact that parts of their watches might have been something else in another "lifetime." Sprout Watches are not only for kiddos, they have really stylish designs for men and women too. What's better than being stylish and conscious of the Earth's resources --ESPECIALLY during Earth Month? Nada, in my book. Check out Sprout here and let us know what 'cha think!  xx

All opinions expressed are my own, as always. We were not compensated for this post but were provided with watches to review.

Happy Easter: Why Don't Boys Get Bunny Ears?

Happy Belated Easter! I hope you guys enjoyed! We had a good time relaxing with family. If you're a mom of boys, you've undoubtedly noticed that in many cases, products for boys are blah compared to girls products whether it's fashion items or accessories. Well, the same goes for Easter bunny ears! So...crazy ole' me -- never one for allowing my littles to be without -- decided to make DIY bunny ears for T&T.  How cute, huh? T&T look like mini gangsta bunny rabbits, right! LOL!  Let me know what you think of their DIY ears in the comments below, and if you're a mom of boys what do you think about finding cool boys products? If you're a mom of gals, do you disagree with me? Let me know. Have a great week! xx

 

Tristin + Tyler's Threads: Spring in Our Step

Hello Spring and Happy April Fool's Day! So excited it's April and things will start warming up soon. With that in mind, we've already started piling up the Spring gear for T&T! This Spring and Summer is going to be a pretty busy time for these little guys so they have to look good! I am so into the shorts and blazer look so I found awseome shorts from J. Crew for Tyler in two colors. What do you think? As you know, the boys wear a ton of colored denim, but I want to start having them rock colored slacks. The light blue slacks on Tristin look like he is ready for Easter, right? My fave though has to be the popsicle skull tee from Munster Kids.  I picked it up at Babesta. The skull doesn't look so scary with all of those colors right? Love that. A little edge, a little cool-kid pastel. What spring trends are you going to put on the kiddos? Are you ready for the warmer weather?

Happy Weekend: A Little Rest

I don't know about you, but litterally EVERY weekend in March was filled with something to do. Don't get me wrong, it was all good stuff like hitting the stage like this and cooking like that, and a few personal events -- but boy, was it all taxing. I came down with the flu because I was so over-worked between being an attorney, producing for the boyz and being a mom and wife. Does your body ever give out like that? Anyway, this weekend I am going to stay indoors as much as possible with my three crazy guys. So, whatever you do, whether indoors or out, enjoy it.  Chat you up next week! xx

Tristin + Tyler's Threads: Ruff & Huddle

Spring is on the way boys and galz and we are SO ready over here at T&T headquarters! We've hooked up with some awesome brands to showcase cool-kid Spring style on the blog, and one of our new faves is London-based brand Ruff and Huddle. We rocked Ruff and Huddle on the petitePARADE Kids Fashion Week stage as we hosted the shows and we received so many awesome compliments on these London Jackets! We ADORE them! They look cool completely closed, as T&T have them with a little accessory like a scarf or sunglasses, or open with a funky tee. You've gotta check them out for your little. On our way home from Kids Fashion Week we saw this awesome ice formation and we knew it would melt soon (wishful thinking!), so we jumped out of the car to take a few pix. Isn't the ice awesome? Make sure to check out Ruff and Huddle here and let me know whatcha think! xx

Tristin + Tyler's Threads: petitePARADE Outfit #2

We're recapping the awesome brands Tristin + Tyler rocked while hosting petitePARADE last weekend. They wore a total of three outfits on stage. If you missed outfit #1, check it out here. For look #2, we changed the boys' style up a bit.  Tyler had a skater-boy look going on while Tristin looked a like a little foreigner with his cool hat and polka dot Dr. Martens.  Tyler is rocking Munster Kids which we picked up from our fave NYC kids shop Babesta.  Munster is a brand from Australia and I love how their clothes are all about comfort (which is what boys really care about) with a little bit of edge. Tyler's shorts have a reptile pattern, but they are super soft. Tristin is rocking Loud Apparel again - we are so falling in love with that brand. Loud uses black, whites and grey to make real statement pieces, it's amazing. His tee says "one day I'll grow up." So cute!

What do you think of these outfits?  Do you think dressing kids in different styles is cool, or do your kiddos always match? Stay tuned for our full petitePARADE recap, and the cool brands they wore for outfit #3.
