When saw the new Andy Warhol Converse collection , well, mic drop. Or whatever Andy would have said twenty years ago. Which is likely nothing at all; he'd just sit and stare at them and smile. After all, if any pop artist could totally g…
When I first got wind of Snoots sneaker-boots (get it? Snoots ?) from Stride Rite, I first thought I didn't really need them. After all, I live down south and we don't tend to think of daily walks to school in the snow as a kids' wardrob…

We love dressing our kids up for the holidays, but there's something satisfying about picking clothes that they can wear beyond the parties and special events already crowding the calendar. That's why we're so happy to be working with ou…
The next big fashion trend is here, and it's food. Considering my kids' favorite shows are Master Chef and The Great British Bake Off , it only makes sense that they'd take their love of cooking to their...leggings? Yep, we're seeing foo…
You Game of Thrones fans are all "Winter is coming!" and when this non-fan (yes, I know) hears it, all it means to me is "Time to buy boots!" And yes, we've featured a slew of cool ankle boots already, but if you're in the market for a n…
Hey, Cool Mom Picks: Any good recommendations for a waterproof winter jacket for my preschooler? I'm starting to realize it's probably going to get cold on the East Coast fast! Thanks! - Leah, via the Cool Mom Picks Facebook page UPDATE:…
When I first saw a pair of WarmMuffs from our friends at 7AM Enfant earlier this winter, my brain instantly filed them under Things You Totally Don't Need In Life . One arctic freeze of a winter later, I admit I've come back to thinking …

There are a few items worth splurging on in your life, and as I've learned the hard way, an awesome pair of warm, sturdy, comfy winter boots is one of them. At least if you're not in LA where everyone seems to drag out the UGGs in 65-deg…
Since moving up north after almost ten years enjoying mild southern winters, I have become addicted to chunky scarves, like these snood scarves from IRISMINT on Etsy which I'm pretty sure I'd wear non-stop until spring. Each piece is mad…
Even superheroes can get chilled while out leaping tall snow drifts in a single bound. To keep your caped---or cloaked--crusader toasty, check out Neon Eaters' warm and adorable superhero knit hat at Psychobaby. I love the simple styling…
When you think hot holiday dresses, you probably imagine your budget flying out of the window. And if you're like me, you'd rather save the money for holiday gifts and not necessarily drop a couple hundred dollars on a dress you might on…
I'm closing in on seven months pregnant and the chill in the air is leaving me with the dilemma: Do I buy a winter maternity coat when all I want is to make my own super cozy coat work for the few months I will really need it? I love all…
It used to be that the idea of designer accessories under $100 was an oxymoron, but these days it's increasingly not the case. Personally, I'm polyamorous--when it comes to my accessories that is--because if it looks fabulous, I don't re…
