Summer for those in the Southern Hemisphere, that is…

To top off their Summer 2010 collection, Chillikids have just launched the super cool ‘Andy’ flipflops. Printed with bright bubbles and bold stars and stripes, these new flipflops are a great addition to any kids’ summer wardrobe; especially for little girls, the retro hot pink bubble ‘Andy’ flipflops are playful and fun.

And for both the boys and the girls, the all-American inspired stars and stripe ‘Andy’ flipflops. With the stars to be worn on one foot and stripes on the other, thees are great for the beach these holidays (& and easily spotted when left lying around in the sand…).

Back To Cool

StyleFiles — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 07:00:00 +0000

Questkids has just released their Fall’10 collection which looks fantastic! We took a moment with Binh Nguyen, company owner and designer, to find out a little more about their “Back to Cool”.

“For the inspiration for my fall Back to Cool collection I wanted to do something that was clean and more simple for the fall. My inspiration was the color purple and greys and and black all the sweatshirts were clean and simple yet very detailed.

Our button ups could be dressed up or dressed down all of our crew neck sweatshirts and t-shirts all had simple 1 to 2 color prints this season.

I wanted to design could quality pieces that could be paired up with any graphic tee. I am extremely happy with our denim and accessories this year coming out with our own line of back packs and beanies for kids!

To celebrate the new collection Questkids put on a fashion show & launch party, complete with limousine and red carpet for the mini stars of the occasion.

Held across from Seattle Art Museum and steps away from Pike Place Market, Questkids Clothing’s 2010 Fall ‘Back to Cool’ collection launch on Saturday October 2nd, 2010 at the Deli boutique packed the house and was filled with energy and fun for both children and adults alike! The event culminates a string of successes for Questkids in 2010, including a fashion show during Bellevue Fashion Week, winning the Microsoft and Seattle Chamber of Commerce video contest for local businesses, placement in local stores Zebraclub, Deli, Eqypt and an online store launch.

Questkids models ages two through nine strutted the red carpet and runway after an exciting exit out of a white stretch limousine into the limelight, awaiting paparazzi, and eager crowd on the sidewalk of First Ave and Union Street. The crowd stumbled out of the store and into the sidewalk as models made their grand entrance, break dancing, and acrobatically jumping down the runway into the Deli store.

The atmosphere was electric and alive, full of Questkids supporters and decadent with family friendly fare and music. Attendees feasted on an delicious array of children friendly treats including locally-owned Via Tribunali pizzas and House of Cake’s exquisite sweets. DJ Sean Cee and DJ Pryme kept the crowd dancing all night. Parents lined up to buy the fall line, with proceeds of the night’s sales donated to Seattle Children’s Hospital.

The Questkids line will be available at Deli Boutique located at 1307 First Avenue in Downtown Seattle.

Even if they’re too young to be out trick-or-treating this year, it’s still great fun to dress the little ones up for Halloween! While searching for ideas for my own getup, I seem to be more distracted by those for kids – they’re just so cute..

Here are some amazingly fun animals costume suggestions. Click each title or image to find a shopping option.

Enjoy!

Vilac. More than just wooden toys.

StyleFiles — Mon, 11 Oct 2010 07:00:00 +0000

Back to school time can mean lots of new this and that to get the little ones prepped for their scholastic adventures to come. But this can be just as much fun for the one doing the purchasing as there’s so much cool kit out there to choose from. Like these bags from traditional French toy manufacturer Vilac.

Totally simple, but all style and fun!

And something for everyone…

However, Vilac is most known for it’s wooden toys, which are so exactly the way you imagine oldschool wooden toys to be..

thredUP kids.

StyleFiles — Thu, 07 Oct 2010 07:00:00 +0000

thredUP, the premier peer-to-peer online clothing exchange, recently announced the launch of its much-anticipated service for kids clothing. thredUP kids is the place for America’s busiest families to conveniently exchange kids clothing online.

The service aims to bring a new level of affordability, convenience and eco-consciousness to a highly fragmented, billion-dollar market for second-hand children’s clothing. thredUP kids is designed to help parents easily swap clothes their kids have outgrown for great new items that fit. thredUP’s best-in-class interface allows parents to exchange with their closest friends or with a national network of parents – all from the convenience of home.

thredUP kids combines the best features of some of the most popular sites on the web: Like Netflix, parents can queue up a box of gently used clothes to receive. Then, similar to eBay, members build virtual boxes of clothing to exchange. Finally, like StubHub, thredUP enables, coordinates and manages the exchanges. The marketplace facilitates exact matches, ensures quality and remedies the lack of coordination that plagues offline clothing swaps. The service is a complete end-to-end solution for busy parents.

“Children grow out of clothes every 3-6 months, having worn outfits only a couple of times,” said James Reinhart, Chief Knitwit of thredUP. “Currently parents are spending upwards of $20,000 on kids clothing by the time their child is 17. And they’re retiring some 1,400 items! We’ve found that many ’swap, buy, sell’ sites are not that enticing to busy parents. They are just too much work. thredUP is all about convenience.”

The kids service launches on the heels of the popular men’s and women’s shirt-swapping site, which went live in October 2009. While this service already has 10,000 members, the team anticipates that thredUP kids will be an even bigger hit in the hand-me-down market.

“The initial feedback has been tremendous,” said Oliver Lubin, Chief Design Knitwit. “In the first two weeks of a private beta launch we have over 1,500 excited parents signed-up to start swapping. Members seem to love the intuitive interface and overall thredUP experience.”

The service launches invite-only today. For more information about thredUP kids visit: thredUP.com

BrandProfile: Bandit-1$M

StyleFiles — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 07:00:00 +0000

Placed under the sign of authenticity and uncompromising style, Bandit-1$M mixes bold designs and smart messages in an array of catchy colors. Tees are the main subject, but the Bandit-1$M way of life actually extends to every facet of your daily routine, via hats, stickers, cushions, posters, wall design and lots more.

Bandit-1$M was brought to life in 2007 by the creative minds of 123KLAN. Founded by Scien and Klor, its name echoes their evolution: first renowned for their graffiti pieces, they became sought after for their signature style and strong designs. Graffiti being considered vandalism, their way of making a living out of criminal acts is known as “banditisme”, banditry. The “1$M” part, besides referring to dirty money, is a twisted version of the “123” from 123KLAN.

Amongst a collection of very cool adults apparel and accessories (worth checking out for yourself..) they have a collection of kids tees available also!

We recently posted two MiniHipsters featuring Bandit-1$M, twins Tommy and Cleo.

Bandit-1$M offers the latest trends and hottest designs thanks to 123KLAN’s expertise gained by collaborating with numerous widely-renowned streetwear brands, with the added advantage of delivering them directly to you to ensure top freshness.
