SunnyChanel — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 23:35:00 GMT

Suri Cruise and Mama Katie were hitting some shops in chilly NYC yesterday. Katie made sure Suri was casual, cute and most importantly warm. Yes, it is true, Suri is wearing a pair of…jeans, demin jeans. But of course she fancies it up with a pair of her metallic hued shoes and her Beige/Tan Burberry Jacket. This exact jacket, The Autumn/Winter fur trimmed beige coat, is hard to track down but you can get one on sale (in small sizes) here, but you can steal Suri’s look with this Burberry Toddler Puffer Coat with faux fur collar ($355). Yeah, it’s Burberry so it has a high end price tag in addition to high end quality.

Star Tween: Abigail Breslin Keeps it Warm and Juicy

SunnyChanel — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 19:30:00 GMT

Hollywood’s own Little Miss Sunshine, 12-year-old actress Abigail Breslin, hit the streets of New York City this week. Being that it is a wee bit nippy this time of year, Abigail kept the chills at bay in this Juicy Couture Super Cire Puffer Classic Jacket in Black ($398). And this tweener opted to wear an adult coat rather than shopping strictly in the junior’s section, hence why the jacket is a little bit on the big side on her. But regardless, she sure does look cute and cozy. Get one for your tween, teen, or you here.

Star Baby: How Does Omaba’s Daughter Sasha Keep Warm?

SunnyChanel — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 18:28:00 GMT

You’d think the warm glow of being in such close proximity of dad Barack Obama and legend Bruce Springsteen would keep seven year old Sasha warm. But I guess battleground Ohio is a wee bit chilly around this time of year. To fight the cold, Sasha wears what looks like a Girls Quilted Jacket from Crewcuts, J.Crew’s kids line. And we all know how much mom Michelle like J.Crew, so it does make sense that this midweight cozy water resistant jacket would be from there. To get your kid warm like a little Obama, go here. ($98)

Can Ben Sherman Make a Great Military Jacket or What?

Heather Kuldell — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 00:27:00 GMT

When I look at the Ben Sherman Four Pocket Jacket, I think of the phrase “dapper gent.” Maybe it’s the British-ness, or the epaulettes, or maybe just the understated sophistication of it. Too bad those pockets will probably be filled with rocks, sticks and used tissues instead of whatever dapper gents carry around.

Available for $139 from size 2/3 up to 7/8.

Beach Locker - The Perfect Mud Room Accessory For Kids

Chris Ford — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 23:02:00 GMT

You know that little room between the garage and the rest of the house in a lot of houses? My wife's family always called it the mud room, and I always thought it was an apt description. This little "locker" seems like the perfect thing for a young child to use to keep their coats, jackets, boots and shoes neatly put away in the mud room. And seeing how the seasons are changing now, it might be the perfect time to check it out.

The Beach Locker is made by the Eco Tots Collection, which is to say it's made from environmentally-friendly wood and a non-toxic finish. It's available in brown, red, natural and light green (pictured) and measures 55 inches high.

Cozy Coat

Meredith Broussard — Wed, 23 Jan 2008 20:04:00 GMT

I spotted Terricloth's impressively hand-detailed clothing at a craft fair, and have been bonkers over it ever since. Check out this button-down wool coat with Peter Pan collar-- could anything be more adorable on a little boy on a very special occasion?

The pattern is taken from a 1930s swing coat pattern that Terricloth's founder discovered at a flea market. Coats are made wholly from vintage boiled wool blankets from the 40s, 50s and 60s,and are lined in vintage cottons that are soft against a kid's skin. Extra long sleeves roll up to reveal the contrasting lining. Order a custom color, antique buttons, or whatever customization your heart desires.

Pair this precious coat with a matching earflap hat and woolen overalls to turn your lil' rascal into the most retro kid on the block. Coats available in sizes 3M to 6X, $130 at Terricloth.

Coats So Cool That...Well, Honestly, They're Too Cool For Kids

Leigh-Ann Jackson — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 14:00:00 GMT

If I were the type to diligently Scotchgard my kid's clothes in the hopes of repelling boogers, those sticky strings from the inside of the banana, and whatever it is that my kid encounters that makes that pesky ring-around-the-cuff, I'd snap up one of these fashion-forward little coats with the quickness.

Maybe this post is lost on those battling the storms I read about on those Yahoo teasers. But here in Southern California, these (plus a cap and scarf) would get your kid through the average "winter" day.

Up top, a cool mariner vibe by Dagmar Daley. It's a little bit Gene Kelly (think "Anchors Aweigh") and a little bit Audrey Hepburn, too. $55, Modern Seed.

If this Fig Organics Riding Hood Coat was an on-trend Mike & Chris number for adults, it'd fetch around $300. This one's $46 at Black Wagon. (Update: Now on sale for $36.)

Elsewhere on Black Wagon...

Egg + Avocado's "Austin" blazer ($50) is another great unisex jacket (although, what girl could pull off a swagger like the one below)? (Update: Now on sale for $25.)

Zutano Winter Collectibles

Gwynne Watkins — Thu, 11 Oct 2007 20:00:00 GMT

Recently, I visited the Zutano showroom in New York. It was like swimming in a sea of tiny prints, melon-colored stripes and plush monkeys. And then there was a tiny room to one side that showcased the limited edition collections, including the Winter Collectibles shown here. Zutano describes this winter's boys collection as "modern masculine" and the girls' collection as "a slumberland tale." I'm sensing some Irish influence in the corduroy caps and tiny cable-knit sweaters, and I like the unexpected shots of orange in the sherbert-colored girls' line. The full collection is available now on Zutano's website.
