SunnyChanel — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 02:37:00 GMT

She’s out of her Snow White gown and guess what? She still looks adorable. Yeah, that’s how she rolls. Giving a cock-headed coy look, Hugh Jackman’s 3-year-old daughter Ava is wearing, along with some perky pigtails, some sweet designer denim. What’s her high-end jean of choice? True Religion. Here Ava sports a pair of True Religion Joey Super T Jeans in a Medium wash. You can get your kid to worship in the temple of jean culture, if you want to give $150 in tidings that is. If so, you can get a pair here.

Star Baby: Soap Star Baby Style – How Does Alison Sweeney Dress Her Son?

SunnyChanel — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 21:00:00 GMT

Being a major star on a popular soap opera can be quite lucrative. If you throw in moonlighting as a host of a hit reality program like The Biggest Loser then I bet your kid’s clothing budget is more than most people’s rent. Days of Our Lives star Alison Sweeny celebrated the upcoming birth of her second child with a baby shower at the Treehouse Social Club in Los Angeles. Her 3-year-old son Benjamin Edward slid down a slide wearing a pair of fancy schmancy Burberry Toddler’s Cuffed Jeans. If you want to get some designer soap opera-ish sytle for your kid, you’re in luck. These jeans that are regularly $105 are on sale for $73.50 from Saks 5th Avenue.

Kmart Covers Its Rear on 'Abstinence Pants' Issue

Aaron Burgess — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 18:52:00 GMT

Hat tip to Consumerist for this one: Apparently, "True Love Waits" is a familiar slogan among Christian teens that are down with abstinence (not that I'd know or anything), but according to spokespeople from Kmart, which is selling $16.99 girls' sweatpants with said catch phrase emblazoned across their asses and hips, that's not the connotation here. Which is sort of weird when you consider that on its own website, the company (which, incidentally, doesn't offer ~~a chastity belt~~ similar sweats for dudes), notes just the opposite:

"These athletic pants boldly proclaim just where she stands by pointing out that 'True Love Waits' in a large screen print on the front and back of these pants."

Did they mention that these are pants? Anyway, Kmart and its parent company are holding to an ambiguous stance on the sweats in question, according to a news item posted today on azcentral.com's The Buzz Blog:

"A spokeswoman for Sears Holdings Corp., which owns Kmart, told The Buzz the pants have absolutely nothing to do with taking any kind of position, either way, on abstinence. 'It was not associated with any group or any cause,' said Amy Dimond. 'It was just a graphic put on the pants.'

"Piper & Blue, Kmart's private label brand, designed the sweatpants as part of its summer collection that hit stores in late April.

"Although the pants were not designed to make a statement, Dimond admitted that 'there may be some (customers) who made the (abstinence association), but it was not the intention.'

Not that Babble readers would buy these pants without a good helping of irony -- I mean, our parent company is so hot and bothered, I can't even visit its website from my day job -- but feel free to debate the issue in the comments anyway. [The Buzz Blog via Consumerist]

7 Days of Earth-Friendly Clothing: Sckoon Organic Cotton Ha-Ha Tee and Pants Set

Heather Kuldell — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 13:02:00 GMT

The name of Sckoon’s Ha-Ha Tee and Pants Set says it all. Monsters on the tee’s hip and the pant’s bum (not the crotch) add fun touches to an otherwise earth-sensitive outfit. Not only does Sckoon use organic cotton made in fair-trade factories in Egypt, India or Japan, it creates its crayon-worthy hues with low-impact dyes. That is something to smile about.

The Ha-Ha set is available in yellow and green, green and purple, purple and red, and red and yellow. $47

Oobi Baby Knit Overalls at Three Lovelies

Erin Behan — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 13:14:00 GMT

About a month ago, Meredith posted about some adorable striped cashmere pants by Oyoyo on Etsy. The price wasn't so crazy for cashmere (now $45, 1 left), but as she noted, most babies aren't quite ready for the rigors of caring for cashmere fabric. So I was happy to find a very similar-looking striped pant with suspenders made of 100 percent cotton by Australian company Oobi Baby on shopping site Three Lovelies. They are also more expensive at $55 (I suppose that's what happens when you import from Australia?), but at least you can just throw them in the washing machine. And don't forget to pair them with the label's cute matching chocolate booties ($35).

Hand Made: Cashmere Pants with Braces

Meredith Broussard — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 15:02:00 GMT

If there were any chance in hell that my kid could wear cashmere for more than five minutes without spilling something on himself, I would buy him these striped cashmere pants from oyoyo in a heartbeat. They're striped! And they come with braces! How cute is that?

When I was working in the Garment District years ago, I bought a couple of pairs of cashmere lounging pants on a whim at a sample sale. They were pretty much the most amazing clothing I've ever owned. On rainy days, or when I was home sick, I'd put on an old cashmere sweater, my cashmere pants, cashmere socks, and curl up on the couch with a blanket and a trashy mystery novel. It was heaven. The idea of cuddling an adorable kid who's all wrapped up in cashmere-- well, it gives me goosebumps in my uterus.

At $50, these French pants seem like an absolute steal. Additional colors available with suspenders; other trouser styles are also available, including some wool pants with a dog that may melt your heart. Check them out on Etsy.

"Frenchy" Denim Pants That Channel Audrey H.

Leigh-Ann Jackson — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 14:00:00 GMT

Whether or not you're aware, they make "skinny jeans" for toddlers. Even more scoff-worthy is the fact that my daughter has a pair (I didn't buy them, though, I swear). They're actually not too restrictive and allow her to get up to her shennanigans almost as well as any other pair of jeans she has. But enough of my rationalizations. These "Frenchy" straight-leg denim pants by LucysPlace look like a much safer bet for parents who aren't such slaves to fashion. With their striped cuffs and trim, they're made of European denim with Lycra blended in for stretch. The elastic waist — instead of a zipper or buttons — and lack of restrictive seams seal the deal on comfort. A cool little beatnik look for boys or girls.

$22, LucysPlace.

The Rhumba Panty Gone Loungewear: Luna Luna Merengue Pant

Mir — Sun, 11 Nov 2007 19:07:00 GMT

So far as I'm concerned, one of the indisputable points in favor of having a girl over a boy is that they are way more fun to dress. There is nothing cuter than a little girl in a pair of those ruffly rhumba pants. Luna Luna took the ruffle-tushie we all love and put it on a (far more practical) pair of velour lounge pants. Get them at OHBaby! in size 6M to 24M for $56 each. (No, I wouldn't spend that, myself, but I sure wouldn't turn them down as a gift. Heh.)
