Travelkins // Miami Beach: Treasure Hunting on Lincoln Road

By Leslie Schor, Senior Fashion Editor 1 Comment

While the rest of the country is freezing (most of it,anyway) during the months of January and February, the southern part of “The Sunshine State” is warm with the occasional cool breeze. A “chilly” day in Miami still allows for light clothing. It’s actually, a lovely time to visit Miami Beach. One of my favorite things to do in Miami Beach is visit the Lincoln Road Antique & Collectible Market. Taking littles to the market is such a fun adventure. They have a great time searching through all of the vintage treasures and people watching. Some of the goods you can find at the market include handcrafted jewelry, vintage fur coats, and midcentury furniture and art. Of course, you also have to pose with parrots while you are strolling around because that is what any respectable tourist does (we are locals and still got sucked in by the parrots).

Ideas for packing/dressing:
Obviously, we couldn’t resist dressing the girls up. Black and white funky tees by Salt City Emporium are great basics to mix with other items like skirts by Antik Batik and Velveteen. The light cream dress by Velveteen has tiny gold specks that look like confetti in the sunshine. Its loose silhouette allows it to also be used as a tunic and when paired with flared jeans by Jak & Peppar, you end up with an effortless boho look. Let’s talk about those jeans for minute–it’s not often you get a statement piece that is also comfortable. Give me bell bottoms any day! The light blue dress with detachable pocket by Velveteen looks like it was made for wearing on holiday in Miami Beach. Accessories by Hello Shiso add the right touch of whimsy and childish fun to any outfit. Your little one also needs a little pouch to hold all of the treasures they find and the one of a kind ones by Moss & Mountain are so cool! They are handmade with interesting fabrics that evoke a western vibe and come with little cutest little treasures inside.

What to drink/eat:
Grab some freshly squeezed juice from one of the market vendors, or check out some of the restaurants on Lincoln Road. We enjoyed a japanese lunch at Doraku (the kids loved it as much as the grown ups did). To satisfy your sweet tooth, hit up Dylan’s Candy Bar, Serendipity, or Ladureé.

Where to shop:
Although some may argue that Lincoln Road is becoming more of an outdoor mall rather than the eclectic shopping destination it once was, I love any place that has an All Saints and a Zadig and Voltaire.

Featurekins // Behind the Scenes with Antik Batik

Antik Batik : Babiekins Magazine Blog

The embodiment of ethnic and bohemian style, Antik Batik executes ancient printing, dyeing and embroidery techniques in an updated and current manner. European and Indonesian influences interfuse seamlessly in pieces that evoke the modern bohemian spirit. The children’s summer collection inspires a nomadic feel with bursts of colors and patterns. The designer of the eclectic brand, Gabriella Cortese, shares a little insight with us…

Tell us a little bit about yourself and your family. How is a perfect summer day spent?
I come from Turin in Italy and love to spend my summer days on the Amalfi Coast with my family.

What defines “bohemian-chic” in 2014?
It is a nomadic way a life.

Where do you gather the inspirations for the seasonal collections? Are they driven by trends or are they intrinsic visions?
I gather the inspiration every day…in the street or at a museum in Paris or during one of my many travels.
I do not follow trends!

Which piece from the children’s SS2014 collection is your favorite?
The Brian dress with ethnic ornaments.

How are these designs influenced by the past and how do you make them wearable for the children of today?
By trying to achieve the perfect mix between several textures and styles. Creating a piece where a little girl can feel like a princess and where she can feel comfy.

Storykins // Who Wants to be a Poodle? I Don’t.

By Gina Munsey, Senior Editor 1 Comment

Lauren Child, the brilliant and talented creator of the Charlie and Lola characters, has written and illustrated numerous books. This week, my library happened to have the delightfully funny Who Wants to be a Poodle? I Don’t. I read it aloud to my one-year-old daughter and was amazed that with despite her microscopic attention span, she listened to the entire book!

Have you ever read any of Lauren Child’s other works, such as the Clarice Bean novels? I haven’t yet, but I love everything of hers I’ve encountered so far (including her fun website)!

Copyright © 2022 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
