We all want the best for our kids. Every parent ensures health and happiness by the choices and options we make each day. We strive for a variety of healthy food choices for inside the body, but health extends to what we put on the body too. Not only in the products that touch the skin, but even with the clothing choices.
Kids Clothing Boutique | Kids Summertime Wardrobe & Tips For Summer
If you're like most moms, you are likely trying to do your best to put together some fun ideas but also want to keep cool this summer and still want your kids to look cute and stylish. To help you out, we've provided some tips.
Choose Tops That are Light and Breathable
While you can't control the weather, you can make sure your little one stays relaxed and comfortable throughout the summer by dressing them in light clothing made from breathable materials.
For example, look for shorts with mesh lining instead of cotton ones that are too heavy for hot days. Similarly, opt for t-shirts made out of polyester instead of cotton because polyester is much more absorbent than cotton and will help keep your child cool when it's hot outside (just like you would!).
Choose Bottoms That Won't Make Your Child Feel Too Warm
Choosing bottoms that won't make your child feel too warm is a delicate balance of comfort, fashion, and safety. Here are some tips for dressing your kids for the summer:
Avoid jeans - even if they're denim, they're not cool enough for high temperatures. Jeans also tend to be very heavy and can cause chafing or irritation on sensitive skin.
* Choose light-colored bottoms in natural fibers like cotton or linen that will breathe well but still protect against sunburns and insects.
* Choose two pairs of shorts (or one pair of shorts and one pair of capris) to alternate between them throughout the day. This will help keep your child relaxed and prevent any wardrobe malfunctions!
The main thing to consider is temperature. Summer days can be sweltering and humid, so you want to make sure that your child isn't too warm in their clothes. They need enough ventilation so they can stay cool.
Keep Cool and Hydrated
Another great way to keep your children comfortable is by ensuring they're well-hydrated throughout the day. Give them plenty of water before they leave home and after they return home from wherever they've been playing outside all day long (because no one wants an empty water bottle when they're thirsty!). We have some cool unbreakable water bottles they can keep with them while outside.
Find Shoes Your Kid Will Want to Wear Again and Again
First things first: let's talk about shoes. You're thinking: "I just want my kid to wear sandals or tennis shoes all summer long." And that's fine! But there's something else we think you should consider—and it involves superheroes.
If your kids are into superheroes (and who isn't?), then there are some fantastic options out there for them. For example, if they're into Iron Man, check out these cool Avengers-themed superhero shoes from HoneyPieKids' online store. They're made with sturdy canvas material and come in various colors, so they'll look great with any outfit! No matter what kind of superhero fan they are—or if they just like cool shoes—these sneakers will be a surefire hit this summer!
Looking for some cute shoes for little girls? With bright colors, fun patterns, and Mini Melissa shoes, they'll be ready for a day of exploring at the park or playing in the backyard.
Have a Few Mix-and-Match Options for Layering Up or Down
HoneyPieKids clothing boutique has a few mix-and-match options for layering up or down. For the coldest of days, we recommend pairing our superhero shoes with our black pants and a long-sleeved t-shirt. This combination will keep your child warm while also giving them plenty of mobility to play.
Opt for One-Piece Options to Keep Things Simple
Shopping for a new kid's outfit can be overwhelming. The options are endless, and there's always that nagging feeling that you could make an even better choice if only you had more time.
But sometimes, the best solution is to keep things simple—and that's precisely what HoneyPieKids offers.
At HoneyPie Kids, we've got all the styles you're looking for in one place: cute kids shoes, stylish clothing, and plenty of other options to please every little fashionista in your life. And we've got them at prices that won't break the bank!
Be Ready For Beach Days With Some Swim Accessories
Beach days are made for fun in the sun, but they can also be a hassle when trying to keep track of sunscreen, snacks, and towels.
That's why we've got all your kids beach day essentials right here at HoneyPieKids!
We have everything you need to make those beach days easier on you and your kids, from swim accessories to shoes.
You'll find swimsuits in every color of the rainbow and different styles—from classic bikinis to one-piece suits with ruffles or polka dots. We even have some great options for boys, like rash guards and board shorts.
And if you're worried about fit? Don't be! We have a wide range of sizes available so that every child can enjoy their time at the beach.
Swim accessories are fun and functional, but they can also help keep your kids safe while playing in the water.
Most of all, have the best time this summer and make the most out of it. It goes by fast.
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 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 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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
HoneyPieKids carries only the best kids boutique clothing when it comes to quality, style, and value. Angel Dear, a popular baby and toddler clothing brand based in San Francisco, combines soft, eco-friendly materials with a modern, up-beat sensibility. Angel Dear is a popular brand at HoneyPie Kids for best-dressed babies and toddlers as well as best-loved baby gifts. Their seasonal collections are sophisticated, but not stuffy. They see childhood as a time to “luxuriate in the joys of childhood,” and design their clothes, blankets and accessories to match that mindset.
Angel Dear is a fan favorite at HoneyPie Kids because of the natural bamboo material and their lighthearted designs. A stack of smiling pancakes, avocado toast, rainbows, tacos, and all sorts of cute animals gives Angel Dear its signature look. They perfectly marry fun and quality by having the cutest patterns made from soft, natural bamboo. Their designs consider not only the tired, middle-of-the-night outfit change, but also the smallest wearer of the footie pajamas.
Their signature footie features thoughtful details for both parents and baby. The fold-over fist cuffs prevent accidental scratches from an erratic baby fingernail. The chin-to-toe zipper features lining to prevent the zipper from accidentally pinching any skin, and the zipper guard at the chin prevents chaffing. The enclosed feet are lined with fleece for extra coziness. Pop on a matching hat, head wrap or headband to complete the adorable look.
In addition to the footie pajamas and infant sleeper, for the not-so-baby, HoneyPieKids carries Angel Dear’s two-piece lounge sets and velour jogging suits. Can we say cute? The two-piece lounge sets are to be lived in (all day if possible!), and feature the Angel Dear signature prints. The jogger sets are easy to pull on, and pair a zippered hoodie with comfortable, pull-on pants. The bigger sizes in no way compromise on soft and cozy, and the zipper details carry over to their bigger-sized fashion.
We always carry a large selection but we don't carry the Angel Dear line in all the patterns, but because they are so popular at HoneyPieKids, we restock a large selection of popular patterns, sizes and styles frequently. If there is a pattern you want and don't see it on our website, just ask us and it may be already on the way to our store or can be ordered. In addition to the infant & toddler sleepwear and loungewear, we also stock the headbands and head wraps, but we highly recommend the super-soft swaddle blankets in the signature patterns. These make great gifts, and are easy to toss in the wash. They are a fan favorite of the littlest customers. The sleepers with a matching hat and blanket is a popular baby gift for baby showers, newborn gifts or anytime gifts.
Every baby fashionista needs a go-to, all-season piece, and the Angel Dear chenille hooded zip-up is it. HoneyPieKids stocks a variety of colors, perfect for girls and boys, and soft all year round. It is the perfect weight, a cross between a sweatshirt and jacket, and adds to the plush coziness when thrown over one of the two-piece lounge set. Every parent who comes into shop or purchase our Angel Dear on our website wishes these came in adult sizes because they are super soft and amazing.
If you are looking for another high-quality kid’s brand to outfit a baby with great taste, Angel Dear has everything you’re looking for. We’re proud to carry this brand, and love seeing the most fashionable kids wearing it. Come to our HoneyPie Kids boutique or shop our website online to experience our latest and greatest.
