Hey everyone! I hope you all are enjoying your last couple weeks of summer before it is back-to-school time for the kids! This week, I wanted to focus on some children’s styles that may be making an appearance in your child’s wardrobe this fall.

Multilayered outfits are still in style for kids (and I really don’t see them ever going out!) because they add function to your kid’s clothes. Little girls look cute in tunics paired with leggings or jeans and the tunics this season stand out with their details that include crocheting, beaded appliques, embroideries and other subtle accents. Boys look sporty and casual in hoodies, jeans with unique details, and funky printed shirts. Here are two outfits that I pulled together from a website called “Trendy Brandy Kids.” I paired both with Converse sneakers in fun prints because I love the mix-and-match look of putting varying prints together. Also, these sneakers are stylish and practical for all the running around that kids do!

(tunic- $88, leggings- $38, Converse-$35/shirt-$23, hoodie-$39, jeans-$64, sneakers-$20.99)

Next, I visited one of my favorite sites for all things handmade- Etsy! Do any of you use Etsy? They have such cool items and I feel good about buying from them because I know my money is going to an actual person who put their time and hard work into making my item. Plus, since you can only make so many of something, it’s less likely that I’ll run into someone with the same thing, and that just makes me feel special wearing/using it! I checked out their section for children and found a couple of great additions to add to your kid’s new layered outfit or even to clothes from last year, making them new again!

I loveee these newsboy caps for boys and girls when the weather gets a little chilly or your little one is having a bad hair day! These come from the SimplyJCrochet shop and they make all colors and hats with floral details too!

(hat-$22)

I found these blouse’s in the shop 1crown3tiaras and I love the vintage-looking fabrics and colors for the fall! The vintage-inspired look is still going strong and you can pair these with leggings or even the great bell-bottom pants that are also sold in this shop. I’m jealous of how fun and whimsical kids clothes can be!!

(tops-$30, berry pants-$26, brown pants-$30)

I’m a sucker for cute headbands and I thought this headband on this little girl’s head of curls was just adorable! (Bubbaloubands shop)

Finally, a few items for the boys… I found these awesome leg/arm warmers that are for both boys and girls. I love how the boys wear them under their tshirts, which means your guy’s summer tees may be able to last a little longer into the fall! These can be found at MamaRunsWithScissors shop.

(leg/arm warmers-$8/pair)

How will you save some money by reworking your children’s clothes from last season? Do you like handmade or store bought? Are layers and vintage-inspired still a yes or losing their appeal?
