What He Wore: BOY style

Tuesday, September 4, 2012

It's been a long few months but BOY style is back and I can't wait to show you guys my newest discovery for the little guys. Several weeks back a friend of mine posted a link on Facebook to iLego. The second I clicked on over I knew my boys would flip when they saw the iLego tees.  Especially the Ninjago ones.

I admit that I'm not a huge fan of character tees but I am a huge fan of anything LEGO and these shirts are pretty darn rad. They are well priced, well made by two creative mamas, and my boys think they are the coolest things ever. Win/win.

 








On Finley:
Blue ninjago tee - iLego
Jeans - Denizens from Target
Shoes - Converse
Hat - Crewcuts

On Oliver:
Grey ninjago tee - iLego
Green pants - H&M
Shoes - Vans

Be sure to pop by the iLego shop and check out their awesome tees. Also check out their Facebook page because they offer some pretty generous coupon codes from time to time.

Sorry for skipping BOY style last week (hectic!) but I'll make up for it this week with the adorable and stylin' Hudson! Hudson is such a stylish little guy that he's got two outfits to show off for us.


Shorts: Old Navy
Gingham long sleeve shirt: Target
Whale short sleeve tee: Crew Cuts
Shoes: Toms


Skinny jeans: Gap
Nautical striped tee: The Children's Place
Lizard sneaks: Converse
(where do we get the cute puppy?)

Clearly, Hudson knows how to rock an outfit. I'm guessing in part that it's because he has a super fun mom who designs the darling clothing line for littles, Eight Baby Legs. Eight Baby Legs is closed for the moment because Hudson has recently become a big brother.  But because I absolutely cannot resist, here's a peek at just some of the cuteness that will fill the shop when it reopens!





Eight Baby Legs should reopen soon. Check out the FB page and be the first to know when it does.

A big thank you to Hudson for sharing his style with us!

You guys are going to melt when you see our adorable guest, Gibson, and his ridiculously awesome style. Gibson's talented mom, Lyndsey, put together a carnival party for Gibson and his sister - complete with a petting zoo, carney food, and Patches the clown. Lyndsey wanted the party to have a retro state fair vibe so she dressed Gibson to fit.


I love every single detail of his outfit. Especially the houndstooth pants. We need a pair of those.


And the bowtie. We need that too. 
 


Gibson's oufit:
Hat: Gap
Bowtie: Amelie Jo
Shirt: Leftover from a wedding
Shoes: Converse from Gap

Ava's outfit:
Dress: Amelie Jo

And on top of these cutie kiddos, how fun does this party look!? Such a fun theme and the details are so clever. Gibson's parents own a party design/styling shop. You can find several of the design elements from this party in their Etsy shop:



Thanks so much to Lyndsey and Gibson for sharing some serious style this week!

A couple of weeks ago, a photographer friend of mine posted about a new line of boys' clothing that had just launched called AVEN. I am always on the search for cool, unique boys' clothing and I instantly fell in love when I checked out the website



AVEN is a result of the combined vision of Angie Monson and Mitch Harris. Angie's background as an amazingly talented family photographer and Mitch's background in fashion design are the perfect match. Since the establishment of AVEN, Angie and Mitch have sought to bring an edgy, unique, street style for young boys. They've definitely succeeded.


All of the clothing is beautifully constructed in the USA and is designed with a stellar attention to the smallest details. Absolutely fabulous. I'm especially loving the plaid blazer and brown chinos.


I am looking forward to seeing future AVEN collections from Angie and Mitch and will continue to stalk the website and gawk at the photography and the styling of the little guys featured. So cool. (Look at the hair!)

This kid has a closet full of some of the coolest clothes and accessories. I always love seeing Jack and adore what his mom puts together when she photographs him.


Seriously. How cool is this guy?


Thanks to Laura Winslow Photography for the photos and to Jack for his rad style!

Jeans: Gap
Hat: Gap
Boots: Aigle

Easter is coming up in just a few days so I thought we'd do a little Easter style here today. My boys are rough and tumble kiddos so their style is pretty casual. These little outfits are fun but will allow them to do their crazy thing and I won't have to panic that they'll ruin anything (great prices on these threads!). I would have liked to get them some skinny chinos but it's going to be hotter than I care to think about here soon and they'd have no chance to wear them again until late fall.


I made these little bow ties for them a while back. I don't care for the way they "sit" so I'm planning to whip up some new ties from the Red Pajamas bow tie pattern when I find the time.







Finley and Oliver's shirts: H&M
Bow ties: Made by me. Make your own with this pattern here
Oliver's jeans: The Children's Place
Finley's khakis: The Children's Place
Oliver's shoes: Converse
Finley's shoes: Target (they are girl's shoes but I just switched out the laces)

Between soccer games all weekend, my little guys being sick, and getting ready for my upcoming trip, there was absolutely no style going on in this house - unless you consider jammies and polyester soccer uniforms stylish. So I've decided to put together a post of things that I would love to hang in Finley and Oliver's closet. Moms of boys, be prepared  - this is some seriously cute stuff.


Fox hoodie from Elise Hooper Designs
Out to Play sweatshirt from Tantrums 
Robin sweater from Christopher Fischer
Pepe the Pirate tee from b. children's wear


Skinny jeans from Zara
Green pants from H&M (only $9.95 and available in a ton of colors!)
Linen trousers with braces from Zara


Ray-Ban sunglasses from J. Crew (my boys would likely destroy these but they are so cute!)
Simple Slip Converse from Nordstrom
Teal Cord Tiny Toms from Toms
Kids' stripe band trilby hat from J. Crew

I told you. Super cute.
