Bitsy Favorite for the Itsy...Piu Piu Chick

If our budget was endless and if I wasn’t such a bug out about my kids ripping or dirtying their clothing on a regular day, this is one of the brands for us that would resurface every season to snag fresh looks. Just sayin’. Some great hand-me-down pieces here folks. And everything on their site makes me happy…

New York Bebe

Our favorite children’s shop in Manhattan (East Village), An.Me, keeps us current, stylish and happy. It is a must stop when we are trailing through our old hood - especially with Lu + Greer in tow. On our recent trip for some last minute Holiday gifts we snagged cool tie-dye sweatshirts that lovingly read “East Village” along the neckline for each of our girls. We thought ‘of course L + G should be sporting something that has their parent’s old neighborhood on it’! The sweatshirts are created by…

Fish & Kids. And Happy New Year!

A new (to Bitsy!) brand I love. Fish & Kids. Its easy. Its wearable (comfy for them). Its versatile (like no gender distinction!). It’s a Spanish brand - of course Bitsy loves it! Boys, Girls, Baby. They even have a women’s wear collection - which btw has a lot of the same pieces as the kids collection. So many bonuses here.

Inklings Paperie & Other Love Notes

We love scouting new brands, sucking the inspo from them and sharing it with you, our readers. Inklings Paperie is one of those brands that makes it so easy for us to share. Not much lead story for me to type here. Truthfully, just take a look at their products. The creativity is epic. We want to be them. Or, at least own all of their products LOL….

Favorite Umbrellas for Kids

They love them and get true joy from using one when it rains. We get soaked helping them use them when it rains. The umbrella - the ultimate accessory for kiddos. Recently we picked out a few really cute ones. Hey, if you’re going to get soaked they might as well look super cute, right?! I still have vivid memories from my childhood of pinching myself every. single. time. I went to close my umbrella haha. BUT I still had to have it on a rainy day! Enjoy some of Bitsy’s favorite umbrella picks for kiddos below. (PS - any of these would make a fun stocking stuffer!)…

The Best Cape for Kids

It’s our favorite and there is a reason. In my Bitsy travels I came across the ultimate children’s outerwear cape company. Yes, capes - classic, sweet, fun to wear. Great for seasonal transitions and adding a fun new silhouette, right?! Well, most of it, but the practicality and comfort level in children’s outerwear capes has never been there. Since Lucy was born I have been attracted to the cape look on little ones. In fact, I crave it and always gravitate towards it. However, since I’ve been dressing my own little ones I realize what a pain in the butt capes can be - for them and for me! My girls always end up choosing not to wear them and I am always bummed to the max. Capes that I bought them in the past would just sit in their closets. The season would come and go and we would log it into the “mom lost” pile. Womp womp. Then I came across…

Bitsy x Me Do

When you meet a mom friend that ignites something in you and makes you feel like ‘shoot, i can do this !’! That’s what happened when I met my friend Diana for the first time. Not only did we hit it off just by connecting on life, but we are both passionate about children’s style + clothing! We fully inspired one another from the start. To boot, Diana is the creator and owner of Me-Do, Inc. A children’s basics clothing company that was created to empower both children and parents. Here’s how…

DIY with Me and My Hubs - Pretend Shop for Kiddos!

Happy Monday! Today we are excited to start a new series on the blog. The series, “DIY with Me and My Hubs”, will be our way of sharing projects Mike and I have taken on (whether they are projects we have created or projects we have read + learned about that became inspiration for our own household needs|wants).

Some live permanently in our old home, others are movable and some now live in our “new” renovated (by us!) farmhouse.

Back to School - The Backpack Edit

As much as I am dreading the start of school, it is time to start shopping for the little ones so parents are prepared and the kids are excited. Since back to school shopping can be overwhelming, exhausting and annoying, we've decided to share our “back to school” edits with you. We are sharing the backpacks that we feel are worthy choices. Reasons being…these are the bags that pack a good style punch (yet, not something your kiddos will get sick of easily - or you!), the bags we feel are functional for elementary schoolers to carry,
