Picaflor Kids Review *GIVEAWAY*

7:25 PM Posted by Erin

**CONTEST CLOSED**



When it comes to my daughter's clothes, I am a true snob. I constantly look for something special in terms of quality and style and I always want her to stand out a bit in a crowd too. I was not disappointed when given the opportunity to review the stunning mint and fuchsia Julia Dress from Picaflor Kids. The brainchild of designer Nancy Coronado, Picaflor ("Hummingbird" in Spanish) is manufactured in her home country of Peru using thoughtful fabrics and small-scale production to create a unique collection of knitwear that is designed for busy little wings.


With a brand new relaunched website, you are likely to find something gorgeous and suitable for your boy or girl at Picaflor Kids. Knit from 100% rayon created from recycled wood pulp, their clothes have a beautiful drape and slight sheen which gave my little girl a bit of a glow. Best of all, rayon has great absorbency and wicks away moisture and that makes her dress so perfect for the heat of the summer. We love how soft and comfortable this dress is for casual play and how easy it is to wear every day or for dressier occasions too. We have washed and worn her Picaflor Kids dress several times now and it still looks as lovely as the day it arrived. I do recommend ordering one size larger than normal since we did find her usual 4t a tad smaller fit. Find your own adorable dress like the Erica or handsome shirt like Julian online at Picaflor Kids or at a boutique near you.

Bobinette: Boys Giveaway!

10:44 PM Posted by Erin

**CONTEST CLOSED**

I don't have a son so I'm pretty much clueless when it comes to anything boy. Case in point, last weekend we had birthday parties to attend for two of my daughters boyfriends (yes, she is a playa) and you would have found This Mom roaming the toy aisles of Target with a faraway glaze over my eyes wondering "What on Earth do boys play with?" Man! The small male species is a huge mystery. Come to think of it, the large male species can be quite confounding as well. Give me princesses and tutus any day and I am completely at home. Still, there is one thing I am quite sure of when it comes to boys. If I ever have a son, he will definitely wear clothes by Bobinette!


This fantastic brand came about when designer Lorraine Le Tac had her first son Spencer, 7 years ago. Living in New York at the time, she'd scour the city searching for clothes for her new baby boy. Finding only clothes that were boring and conservative inspired her to begin Bobinette. Now with two year old son Matisse on board as well, her resolve to bring style and fashion to boy apparel has deepened ever more. Born in Paris and raised by a talented mother who instilled in her a sense of style, Lorraine draws her inspiration from her French background, nature, playing children, and western travel, among many other places. Bobinette's trendy designs feature the natural fabrics Lorraine is fond of; cotton (organic), linen. Cotton is the best! It comes in so many shapes and forms - crinkled like gauze, textured like seersucker, soft and stretchy like cotton knits... I also like fleece because it is fluffy, comfortable and warm for winter clothes - perfect for baby jackets!
Bobinette yearns to bring more color and style to all little boys around the globe! These stylish clothes almost makes me wish I could trade away hairbows for tonka trucks. Almost. In the meanwhile, hip moms of boys can purchase Bobinette in local retail stores.
Win It: One lucky little guy gets to look ultra handsome in the two pieces, Oscar and Ziggy from Bobinette's Spring/Summer line featured in this post.

The Details: One lucky winner will receive a complete Spring outfit by Bobinette in Oscar Blue Swirls and Ziggy grey linen (sz 12m-6 years). The Rules: Visit Bobinette and tell me your favorite item from any of their lines.
