Babiekins Magazine

A Trendsetting Magazine & Online Community For The Trendsetting Child + Parent

Fashionkins // Autumn Walnut Picking in DL 1961, Imoga Collection, La Miniatura

By Kelly Sweda Leave a Comment

When what was meant to be a morning picking apples became trespassing on private property and scouring for walnuts || Somehow last weekend we missed the memo that the apples in all three orchards we attempted to visit were “sold out” for the season: each farm stand boarded up with handwritten regrets taped to the planks and row after row of empty little trees and not a soul in sight. I took “sold out” more like “all dried up.” With record heat and no rainfall for months upon months upon months, the barrenness quickly all made sense.

Fortunate for us, my company and I happened upon the most beautifully lit walnut grove in someone’s front yard. Albeit a big yard, which we held in our favor. Parking down the way and slipping through the slats of their fence we stayed toward the far end and enjoyed the place all to ourselves.

Copyright © 2023 · 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!
