Sometimes, the right gear makes all the difference. When a child is comfortable and organized, he or she is better able to enjoy the experience of being outdoors. LittleLife is a division of Lifemarque, a UK-based company that offers camping and travel gear in grown-up sizes. LittleLife takes that same adventurous vision and high-quality craftsmanship and applies it to gear and accessories for kids. Rather than just making miniature versions of adult gear, LittleLife adds its own kid-friendly style and flair to its line without sacrificing functionality. Even the littlest adventurers can enjoy this company’s products, thanks to the wide array of eye-catching choices.

America is such a diverse country with so many points of view and traditions to draw on, it’s almost impossible to pin down one look and label it “American Style”. While we don’t have one standard look, we do have a set of ideals we’re known for, and these can be seen in the products we wear and use. Our love for wide open spaces is apparent in western wear like you’ll find at Cuddlestar. Our innovation is seen in the “Why didn’t I think of that?” simplicity of the The Little Lasso. Our respect for the innocence and beauty of childhood shines through in fashions from companies like Malley & Co. and A Little Annafaith.

Looking for that unique children’s gift that will be a favorite for years to come? How about a Butterscotch Blankee?

There’s a new way to look at diaper bags. Up to now, no company had delved into the world of microbes (aka icky germs) or anti-stick coatings, but that’s changed due to this dynamic duo of new licensed diaper bags: Ju-Ju-Be has begun a collaboration with Hello Kitty, the iconic brand everyone adores. The new Kitty collection features signature diaper bag designs in a range of shapes with –– retailers take note –– a custom print; bow zipper pulls; and super-cute, functional hidden surprises such as embroidery details inside each bag. Invite shoppers to peer inside the bag to get a look at the “hidden” three apples, a nod to Hello Kitty who herself is three apples tall and weighs five apples.

No matter the age, women love purses. So when Shelila Culver’s daughters asked for a dance bag for their ballet class, Culver knew it had to be special. With the smash hit of the design, Culver Cutie was born. The company offers beautiful and unique bags for girls who want to spotlight their individual style. The bags are shaped like the bodice of a ballerina all the way down to the tutu. They are designed with high-quality fabric and tulle, and reinforced bottoms to support heavier items. Each bag has a roomy pocket for those go-to essentials and dancer necessities. The sturdy handles provide durability for those playful little girls that like to run around as they show off their stylish accessories.

Mothers would like nothing better than to carry an “It” bag that doubles as a diaper bag. From her styling and fashion experience, Cathryn A. Fisfis created an eponymous line that has style and taste. “Fashion is expensive; style doesn’t have to be” is the Cathryn A. Fisfis motto. Combining fashion with function, her bags have the aesthetic of a top-market handbag with the usability of a diaper bag. The Samantha model, with a cowhide body, lambskin bow and water repellant lining, has a wire frame opening at the top so it’s easy to locate whatever mom is looking for. The eleven pockets make it baby-friendly, while nickel detailing gives it a look of elegance.

From Victorian times to the pioneer days of Laura Ingalls Wilder, the bonnet was a staple for babies, young girls and grown women. While earlier generations wore bonnets to protect against harsh exterior elements, today’s babies and toddlers are enjoying the resurgence of the bonnet as the perfect outfit accessory. Of course, the sunshade aspect is a happy benefit. The Beaufort Bonnet Company is leading this return to days of the bonnet. In true Southern style, this South Carolina company was begun in 2009 by a mom to bring her love and appreciation of heirloom bonnets to this new generation.
