MINI MIOCHE x HEART AND HABIT / AS SEEN ON

Constantly seeing my own kids wearing little clothing that I designed is pretty amazing. It’s totally humbling to design something and have such a fantastic response (really everyone blew me away on the response to this collab), but seeing kids (not just the ones I own) wearing the items? Well that’s just on a whole other level of cool, and it makes it all much more real. Here are some of the cuties we’ve spotted wearing our mini mioche x Heart + Habit collaboration (in no particular order!).

mm-x-heart-and-habit2 @sarahshabacon in the comfy overalls – that one’s from us wearing the cowl hoodie – @juli_at_mjolk in the ball dress

mm-x-heart-and-habit3 @minimioche in the comfy overalls – another one from us wearing the scooped tunic

If you haven’t had a chance, there are still some items from this collection up for grabs! And don’t forget to use the hashtag #mmxheartandhabit when you post your little one wearing our duds!

WINTER COATS | FAVORITES

Favorite Winter Coats This week I felt a chill in the air for the first time, the kids of course thought it was super cool (amateurs, wink). The mere sight of my breath in the air, well it was pretty depressing. Winter is…well winter, let’s just leave it at that. Since I literally wear my winter coat for 5 months out of the year, it’s pretty important to have one that’s really warm and in a style that I totally love. But of course, I also don’t like to spend a ton of money especially on winter (peee-ewww) clothes. In my search for a coat for myself, I found a few I really love all under the $300 price point (it’s about as low as you can go for a decent coat), some warmer then others – so if you haven’t snagged a coat yet, maybe now’s your chance. [top grey car coat from zara]

A super warm down filled coat is a requirement, but it’s pretty great to have a secondary wool coat for those days that don’t freeze your eyelashes as soon as you step outside.

And a quick little note, since JCrew has a 25% off sale (with code TGIFALL) till Sunday (outerwear is included) and The Gap has a $40 off for every $100 spent on outerwear sale (with code 40OFF100 or 40OFF100CA for Canada) till Sunday, here are my favorite kids coats from both places – since they both happen to be my favorite place to get the kids coats.

TOTO KNITS X HEART AND HABIT / GIVEAWAY

toto-knits-x-hh_varsitycardy_peplumtank Let’s talk about that little sweater collection that I designed with Toto Knits, we truly love every item (go figure, I know). My kids can usually be caught wearing one of the items almost everyday – not always to school though, because things tend to get lost when they go there (and by tend I mean, always).

If you haven’t heard me talk about this collaboration enough, I wanted to take another chance to show you a few photos I love and just I don’t know give you guys a chance to win some of the collection? It’s timeless, with a hint of trend, it’s season-less with a Canadiana style, and generally the styles are pretty unisex. All 100% Organic cotton knit by talented single mothers in Africa, Toto Knit is both wonderfully eco and humane friendly – they are doing great things and I am so lucky to have gotten the chance to work with them!

toto-knits4 toto-knits5 There are 12 styles in the collection and we: Toto Knits and Heart and Habit want to give one of you a $75 shop credit to shop for your favorite items. Open Internationally!!

SHE’S SO COMFY

comfy-over-all2 comfy-over-all1 comfy-over-all5 comfy-over-all4 Overalls: mini mioche x heart & habit – Tank: Target – Purse: H&M (last year) – Moccasins: mini mioche

The kids are obsessed with making up new words for the chorus of ‘Fancy’. On the walk home on Saturday, King gave Harlow two theme songs “she’s so comfy” and “she’s so tired”. She dug the comfy version, because she was in her comfy pants (the tired version not so much, even though it was truer than true) – and then they sang “I’m so comfy, you don’t even know” all the way home (better than the original if you ask me).

Harlow is wearing the comfy overalls from our mini collection with mini mioche. She is wearing a size up, because I was worried she would surprise me with a growth spurt in the next couple weeks and grow right outta them if we got her exact size. So they fit a tad big, but nothing a little drawstring tightening and a couple rolls in the hem couldn’t fix.

LADY DATE

lady-date1 lady-date2 I got to spend a little one on one time with my little lady over the weekend. Little dates with each kiddo, are something we always seem to plan for but hanging out as a family, always wins. It always takes an accidental, one-on-one date to remind us just how awesome they are and important they can be.

On our little lady date, we didn’t do anything that would technically be called special in someone else’s books – some window shopping, walking and talking, and boring ol’ winter coat buying felt pretty darn special since it was just me and her. We spotted a bride and a groom getting their photos taken and as you can see from above Harlow just loved it – she really really loves LOVE (and pretty dresses).

*Harlow is wearing the ball dress from mini mioche x Heart & Habit

And then, since it’s both kids obsession, Harlow took a few photos herself. All 100 of them were of two things, so I’ll spare you the other 98 and just share these. ladydate4 ladydate5 The rest of our weekend was pretty awesome, so awesome in fact that I failed to take photos – always a sign of a really fantastic time, in my opinion. Hope you all had a fantastic weekend! Oh and since Harlow snapped a photo of it, that really awesome bucket bag I’m wearing? I have a giveaway coming for that tomorrow!

NOT BABIES, KIDS

everyday2 everyday3 everyday4 BOY | sweater: Heart & Habit x Toto Knits – jeans: Old Navy – shoes: natives — GIRL | dress: c/o mummymoon – boots: zara (2013)

I realized it’s been a long while, like months since I’ve last shared any sort of post with the kids outfit details. I’d love to give a fantastic and elaborate reason for this, but honestly I don’t have one. I guess I could always make one up, but I’ve never been a very good ‘story maker upper’. Ask the kids, my made up bed time stories always get a “can you tell Daddy to come and tell a story” response.

Mostly I haven’t shared posts like these because well, the kids are getting older. Like older in the meaning that when I call them “my babies” they both look at me with a slight offense written all over their little not so baby faces and then they remind me “we aren’t babies” and I try to remind them, that in my eyes they will ALWAYS and forever be my babies. But then I always just agree, quietly whimper and shake my fist at time (because seriously!!). And why would it matter that the kids are getting older and why would this have anything to do with why I haven’t shared clothing details in such a while? Well as they get older they just aren’t always into getting their photos taken, let alone shared. Oh I will still always take photos, but when they hit those “ughhhh, Momma!” stages with photos – I just don’t share them. Because they aren’t babies (tear) and they are their own little people (sob) have they 100% have a say in what happens in their own world and with their cute faces.

On a clothing note, King told me he loved this sweater and went on to tell me all the reasons why – I didn’t tell him that I designed it because it’s a little confusing, but instead just soaked in that glorious moment. And Harlow, the moment she found there was pockets in this comfy dress – well she hasn’t wanted to wear another item of clothing since.
