Fashionkins // Pastels & Primaries

By Leslie Schor, Senior Fashion Editor Leave a Comment

Summertime fun has begun! Okay, it technically begins June 21, but that shouldn’t stop our fun. See below for two looks I created for the season using two color groups, pastels and primaries. Oh, and a little metallic for fun. I love pieces that feature basic geometric shaped in primary hues. For the pastel look, I focused on whimsical shapes and designs, kind of like a summer galaxy. That summer galaxy vibe lead to the metallic jacket paired with goggles, which is so much fun! The primary look below is perfect for a beach date or garden picnic. While the other, is so fitting for a summer sunset outing for ice cream and milkshakes.

Featurekins // Liliane Roland SS2017

One of our favorite shops, Liliane Roland, is offering some seriously gorgeous spring and summer selections. We are loving sleek designs with pops of color. This lookbook makes us want to pack our bags and head to a swanky tropical resort (after purchasing an entire wardrobe)! Set in The Confidante Miami Beach, the mood is vintage yet trendy and sophisticated. Don’t sacrifice style for comfort this upcoming spring and summer. Your babiekins can have BOTH!

Fashionkins // Girls’ Spring Trends 2017

By Leslie Schor, Senior Fashion Editor 1 Comment

We walk a fine line in this industry between what photographs well and what wears well. Some things look amazing in a an editorial setting, but are just not wearable. I put together a couple of looks for tween/teen girls that my daughter totally approves of. A few things I am loving this season are: the color green, fancy skirts with an athletic waist band, ruffled sleeves, fun socks (always), velvet is not going anywhere yet (just choose a pastel color instead of autumn/winter’s jewel tones), and overall dresses.

Since its opening in 2006, Liliane Roland has been the “it” place in Miami Beach for fashion savvy parents looking for the perfect outfits for their children. The owner, Rachel Wasserlauf, carefully selects brands that offer New York chic, but are suitable for the South Florida weather. From hipster to classic wear, Liliane Roland carries a variety of styles. Parents can shop for pajamas, days dresses, formal wear, and fine shoes all in one location. The brands are both domestic and international; and prices are mid to high end. While the shop has a dedicated customer base, it also caters to the tourists that flock to the beautiful beaches of Miami Beach. A website is in the works, but if you are not local to South Florida, you may shop via Instagram and have your items shipped. Below are some of our favorite images from the shop’s AW16/17 Lookbook.
