What He Wore: BOY style

I am so excited to introduce you to my new feature!


We've all seen the "What I Wore Wednesday" posts. I love peeking into someone else's closet and getting to know their personal style but thought I'd put a spin on it and feature style for the little guys. Anyone with boys knows that it's tricky to find affordable, unique, and functional clothing when there are racks upon racks of adorable clothes for little girls staring us down.

Back when I was making clothes for boys, people would ask me for advice all the time on what types of things their boys should wear or where I shopped for my boys. I like my boys to look cute but it's also important for them to be comfortable. They are rough and tumble guys and are hard on their clothes - one of their favorite games is to fun as fast as they can and then see how far they can slide on their knees. Drives me nuts. Anyhow, couple that with the fact that they grow like weeds and I've had to find clothes that won't break the bank but will still allow them to express their own personal style. It's been a fun challenge. Dressing boys doesn't have to be boring - even when there's only a rack or two to choose from ;)


So without further ado, here is Oliver (the reluctant model) showing off his duds for my inaugural {What He Wore: boy style} post.




Scarf: Zara
Sweater: Zara
Jeans: The Children's Place (woo-hoo for hand me downs!)
Shoes: Converse
