Bows & Buttons: Keepin' Kozy: Girls

When the Mercury begins to drop, and all you style-minded mamas are draping your Love Quotes scarves around yourselves to keep toasty (you are wearing them to keep warm, non?), your thougths will inevitably begin to turn towards kepping your pint-sized diva toasty AND trendy as well. Today's blog, Dear Reader, takes a look at baby & toddler wintertime wear.

Turning our sartorial gaze towards Tinseltown for inspiring little diva winterwear can prove problematic, however, as the land of eternal sun does not lend itself to down-filled jackets and pufffer parkas. Fear not though all you mortals habitating amongst the snow and slush, Bows and Buttons has scoured the net and thanks to Style Queen, Suri Queen, has some stylish suggestions for you.

You and your mini-me will surely be feeling the so-called Suri Effect as you turn a fashionable eye towards what Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise's only daughter has been sporting over her duds when the air gets nippy. Suri dons simple yet stylish outerwear: a rose puffer jacket and the ubiquitous taupe faux-fur coat, as a foundation to add fun and printed winter accessories. Likewise, choosing a neutral, or at least solid colour, for your little girl's winter jacket or coat will ensure that this winter staple goes with all her sparkly tights, patterend mitts, and crittered hats. By mixing up the winter accessories (check out celebrities' choices for critter, leopard, and Hello Kitty hats below) you can guarentee that dressing your little diva for the snippy air will keep her sizzling fashion-wise. With such effortless winter dressing, you may even forget the Siberian temps...well almost...

Looking to emulate the toasty but trendy frosty fashions of Holly-babies? Check out our style suggestions below. From Suri Cruise's actual faux-fur coat and the Spelling crew's Yo Gabba critter hats to fun and fashionable winter hats and mitts, we have got you covered. The best part? While fashion-world is tied up in a hizzy about Spring 2012 wear, the rest of us are still dealing with winter's wrath. What does the mean for you? SALE!...You'll have your little girl dressing like Suri in no time...but beware, you might have to convince your mini-me to check her attitude at the door...
