The Latest Trends In Kids Fashion, Fun & Lifestyle Blog — summer wedding

Ryley + Cru is a wonderful children’s clothing brand with three distinct lines: Ryley + Cru, Quincy May and Noralee. Honey Pie Kids is proud to carry this brand, not only because the clothes are stylish and modern, perfect for the well-dressed kid, but because the company itself is built on unwavering standards of quality and thought towards environmental impact, as well a generous spirit through substantial giving. 

Ryley + Cru is a brand designed and managed by a husband and wife team. Its signature look features beautiful, muted tones, soft, high-quality basics, and simple, modern prints. All three lines feature a different aspect of kid’s fashion, yet parents can count on Ryley + Cru, Noralee, and Quincy Mae all delivering on quality, wearability and longevity. 

Rylee + Cru

Rylee + Cru merges art and imagination in a collection of modern, muted clothes for kids. Each piece is made to be comfortable, easy for play and longevity. Many children’s clothing brands are flashy, sparkly, and showy, but Rylee + Cru features a sophisticatedly understated look. The muted brown, cream, and rust color palate isn’t common in children’s clothing, but it works well, and offers parents an alternative to fast, cheap fashion. Honey Pie Kids offers a selection of Rylee + Cru dresses, swimwear, separates, and accessories for girls, boys and babies. 

Noralee

Noralee is the dressier Rylee + Cru line. It features gorgeous dresses and suits with beautiful detailing. This line is perfect for summer weddings, special occasions, but is not so precious that it can’t be worn every day. Each piece is thoughtful and simple, but not stuffy or flashy, and gives a vintage feel through the layered, soft hues and textures. The accessories pair perfectly with the coordinating pieces. 

Quincy Mae

Quincy Mae is a collection of beautiful, organic baby basics in earthy colors and subtle prints. These will become go-to choices for baby because of the soft fabric and thoughtful design. The collection features coordinating bamboo swaddle blankets, hats, bodysuits and matching sets. 

Sustainability

Rylee + Cru takes its sourcing and sustainability seriously across all three brands. They have built their team to ensure fair wages and safe working environments. They work exclusively with WRAP factories, guaranteeing their products are made responsibly. They have built personal relationships with their overseas partners to maintain their high standards. All of their fabrics are sustainably and ethically made from natural fibers and dyes. They are free from chemicals, pesticides and all the yucky stuff we don’t want our kids to wear.

Generous Giving

Rylee + Cru are serious about giving back, and use their brand to promote good on the local and national level, giving generously to the less fortunate. The business is build on “philanthro-capitalism” meaning business has the ability, and responsibility, to create support and financial resources for those in need. As a company, they’ve given hundreds of thousands of dollars to many organizations. 

Honey Pie Kids is proud to sell this amazing brand. Rylee + Cru embodies the best of children’s clothing, and if you haven’t already discovered this heart-fueled, sophisticated and modern brand, shop online or in store today. 

Kids Boutique Brand Spotlight: Abel & Lula Girls

HoneyPieKids is excited to introduce you to Abel & Lula, a chic children’s clothing brand carried at our boutique. This distinctive brand is elegant and very cosmopolitan, yet wearable and simple aiming to make special occasions even more special. This brand creates special items for special occasions, but focuses on pieces that don’t look like what everyone else is wearing. These dresses and accessories are wear-again (and again) because of the quality and thought put into each design. These are pieces that get passed along because they hold up to wear over time. Abel & Lula is always a favorite of parents who shop at Honey Pie Kids for a few reasons. 

High Quality

Abel & Lula are well-made pieces. The design and craft that goes into each piece are meticulous, yet Abel & Lula knows that even at a fancy event kids need to play, so their designs are event and play tested. They pride themselves on wearable, comfortable cuts so kids don’t have to tug and pull at parts of the clothes. Their fabrics are hand selected with thought towards longevity and style. Abel & Lula knows kids will be experiencing new things for the first time, and they want to create opportunities for parents and children who all enjoy getting ready for a nice event together. 

Details

Each Abel & Lula piece comes with personality. Some of the colors and prints are bright, but stand out for their winsome beauty. Other pieces are not patterned, but have detailed overlays or lace detailing on the breezy sleeves. The bows, ruffles and pointelle details add feminine touches in just the right places. Their pieces have a mature and sophisticated air about them making the wearer look very grown up and put together. We love (and sell) their flower-adorned straw hats as well as their coordinating bags. Though Honey Pie Kids sells many of their sleeveless dresses, we love that Abel & Lula makes corresponding faux-fur jackets to pop over the top in the winter. 

Innovative Design

We love the flexibility and innovation of Abel & Lula designs. Instead of only making dresses, we appreciate the crepe jumpsuit and coordinating accessories. The asymmetrical top with ruched strap, snappy matching belt, and long, flowing pants legs make this piece perfect for a wedding, recital or church. The color looks great with any complexion, and for fun, it would look perfect paired with a hat and a bag. It’s easy to see Abel & Lula’s artisan spirit in this modern piece. Another piece we can’t get over is the jacquard shorts dress. This is the perfect marriage between dress and shorts for the active girl who might not love to get dressed up, yet she’ll still look fabulous at the party. 

HoneyPieKids knows the discerning parent loves high-quality luxury brands for their children’s clothing, and we think Abel & Lula delivers on both luxury and quality paired with beautiful fabrics and unique patterns. We think the thoughtful details of a ruffle or bow, covered buttons or sophisticated pleats set Abel & Lula apart when it comes to special-occasion fashion.
