It's August! I can't believe that it is really August. I am a bit freaked out about how fast this summer has gone, so I am still trying to keep the summer alive through my photo shoots and how I style T&T.  Like this shoot with Tristin and Tyler in Washington Heights (where I grew up).  We partnered with Poster Child Style to do this feature with really cool sweat pants + sweat shorts, paired with Ralph Lauren polo shirts. Sweats have really made a comeback this year, especially for little dudes, and they are oh so comfortable for T&T.

Head to the Poster Child Blog to see the rest of the photos! xo, Tiffany

I am so excited to finally be able to share Tristin + Tyler's Lil' Naturals feature for TXTURE Magazine! TXTURE is a lifestyle magazine focused on natural hair started and run by Monifa Coffee, and I was too honored for the boys to be in this issue - did you see Nicole Ari Parker on the cover? The shoot was photographed by Creative Soul Photography -- If you don't know them, you need to! They are great at photography and know how to work with kids - love that. They even shot a fun DIY Play Doh video of the boys (see below). The article was written by Renee who met us in Times Square to chat. Renee makes the interview read like a short story - you've gotta check it out! If you love the styling in the feature, make sure to follow Latoya - she rocks! Okay, enough talking -- click HERE to download the magazine for $4.99 or find it in your local Barnes & Noble! Don't forget to see our natural DIY Video below!

Tristin + Tyler Featured On: Better Connecticut TV!

Screen Shot 2015-04-10 at 11.46.46 AM It's Spring Time and it's also Earth Month, so every year around this time we try to think up some fun, easy craft ideas utilizing recycled or upcycled materials. So instead of throwing away things like an empty water bottle, wine cork or scraps of construction paper, Tristin + Tyler transform them into something new.  We headed to one of our favorite TV programs, Better Connecticut, to share what we came up with this year including, a cute chicken craft made from scraps of construction paper, plastic water bottle art and my personal favorite: a lady bug pin and straw identifiers made out of milk jug plastic! Check out Tristin + Tyler's segment below (or HERE if you can't see it below), and stay tuned for full tutorials next week! Happy Weekend!

Tristin Featured In: Kenneth Cole Kids Ad Campaign

You may not know this, but Tristin and Tyler model and act individually in addition to working with companies under the "Tristn + Tyler" brand. The boys have an agent and spend a ton of time in and out of auditions after school and on weekends. They book some, don't book others - it's truly a crazy busy game that can really mess with your child's confidence level if they don't get things they really want, but they love the opportunity and challenge to show their stuff, so I make it happen for them!

I'm excited to share a few images from the Kenneth Cole Reaction SS 2015 campaign featuring Tristin! The images are on their website and in a certain department stores - definitely snap a shot and hashtag #tristinandtyler if you ever see them! I am a big fan of Kenneth Cole for boys, their shoes are so durable! What do you think of the images, pretty slick huh? Below are a few behind the scenes images too. Tristin had so much fun playing with the dog that was in the photo studio. He was also a big fan of people waitiing on him, doing his hair and tailoring his outfit. It was cute to see how professional he was during it all.

Oh, and by the way the boys want to start vlogging so look out for some videos on their YouTube channel going behind the scenes of their lives! They are excited to do stuff that's not scripted so this should be interesting...I mean super fun! Subscribe to their YouTube Channel here so you don't miss anything!

Being the creative gal that I am, I love getting a sneak peek into how other creatives make their art come alive, so I was super excited to head to Brooklyn with Tristin and Tyler and go behind the scenes of the PBS Kids series PEG + CATIn a world where most kids don't like math, or they think of it as boring, Peg + Cat takes math to a whole different level with upbeat storytelling, beautifully composed music, fun problem-solving and a friendship between a girl and her cat that will make you wish your cat could talk! I will say no more! Meet the team behind Peg + Cat in the latest episode of "What's Up, City Kid?"
