The light in the studio ran wild as children’s small feet slapped against the hard floors. Echoes bounced into air like round balls floating higher and higher on a hot summer’s day. They were consumed, in laughter and in play, in whimsical games and in silly stories. Their spirits soared high in the open airs.

Today they became the light chasers.
Today they became the sun kids.
Today they became free.

Don’t the days of childhood and youth just call out freedom? They call for you to toss your shoes aside, twirl round and round in glowing rays of sunshine and to close your eyes and dream of open fields.

We’re dreaming of enchanting gowns and dresses paired with soft sweaters and earthy hues. We’re dreaming of bare feet and hair loosely tied in a bun. We are dreaming of summer pieces that reflect comfort and style. What are you dreaming of?

Meet Renee.
A young girl who lives at The Broome Hotel in New York City.
She may be youthful but she is full of wit and charm.

The city would love her spunk and character.
The museums would happily frame her candid spirt.
The cafès would eagerly fuss over hot cocoas and sweet treats just for her.

She is a city child.
She knows her block well.
Cast iron buildings rooted into the paved streets.
She knows there is history but she is a modern girl.

A modern girl living in a modern building.
She knows every crook and cranny of The Broome Hotel.
But watch out!
Those mysterious and curious eyes can be misleading.

She likes to chew gum.
Read unusual books.
Doodle on scraps of Father’s paper.
She likes to make silly faces.

She is an inquisitive young girl.
She is Renee at The Broome Hotel.

Today we are sharing a petitePARADE spotlight: Mischka Aoki.

Bold and elegant, bright and striking. These shining stars walked the runway with an attitude set for spring and summer. The beauty and structure of these fine luxury pieces quickly grasped all eyes and captivated the room’s attention. I like to think these stunning photographs speak for themselves and showcase the exclusive and exceptional craftsmanship placed into each piece of clothing.

Designed for the fashionista in mind, Mischka Aoki delivers luxury fashion for children ranging from 1 – 12 years olds. Their emphasis is creating a range that is limited and exclusive – unlike anything you have seen before.

Mischka Aoki, an Australian label, is quickly becoming known around the globe for their stand out, show stopper pieces, unique designs and luxurious fabrics.

In just a few short years, they have proven themselves as an international luxury brand for children and can be found at high end boutiques and department stores around the world including HARRODS, Harvey Nichols, Selfridges & Co, Bergdorf Goodman and many more.

A state of blue emerges slowly into spring. Soft pastels meet slate grays that welcome cool creams and off whites. Color combinations for the classic lover and hints of playful hues for the child dwelling inside.
