Get a Leg Up with Blade & Rose
As babies become more mobile, parents suddenly realize that tiny tots don’t see the world in quite the same fashion –– toes go right into mouths and rolling around on the carpet is all the rage. Since it’s “bottoms-up!” from about age six months or so, savvy parents usually slip on a pair of leggings or stockings to keep little bottoms covered. But there’s no need to go with boring solids for the bum when you have access to the sweet stylings of Blade & Rose, which specializes in wrapping busy bottoms in warmth, comfort, and style. “These are premium quality, unique leggings,” says Amanda Peffer, company founder and creator of the posh leggings. Blade & Rose has garnered rave reviews from moms here and across the pond. The idea for the Blade & Rose leggings collection was inspired when Peffer’s own children were small. The company is named after them (Blade and Rose are her children’s middle names) and the leggings are designed for children just like them –– kids who need to move, explore, and still be covered. Customers have raved over the top quality yarn used in each pair of leggings, as well as the thick waistband that allows for a more comfortable, lasting fit. Styles for the crawling crowd are designed with a cute picture on the derriere. Older children (4-5 years old) can still step out in style with a more demure set of leggings with a sweet decoration that appears on the ankle instead. Big movers in the line include the Cupcakes, Daisies, and Dinosaur designs, but there are styles for every taste.
The Owl leggings in sweet chocolate and lilac would make a great gift for animal lovers. Royal fantasies take wing with the pink star-studded Fairy Princess leggings, while the striped Elephant leggings call to mind a more posh Babar. Blade & Rose also carries a line of crocheted hats that match their popular leggings designs.
Girls 0-4 years old can punch up any outfit with the soft raspberry 100% combed cotton crocheted hat, a topper decorated with a sweet cupcake. Girls can combine movement, fun, and fashion with the Denim Smock Dress, which looks great when paired with the sedate blue Daisy leggings.
