Dress them smart, Start them young

One of the really enjoyable part of parenting is dressing up our little one. It is never too early to start grooming your child to look stylish and our preference is towards miniature version of adult clothes.

What's more, babies are becoming a hot fashion accessory for both mums and dads so dress them right to always be camera-ready. 

Her dream come true - finally a girl for mummy to dress up!

A tip on how to dress your child would be to follow the style of well-dressed (celebrity) kids and recreate how they are dressed. There aren't many options in our market for stylish and affordable kids clothing so, looking online is a good avenue to hunt for affordable clothes to create a high end stylish look.

So chic & stylish - if only we had an uncle like Aila Wang

Love his style - laidback with trendy accessories. He's so charming like his dad, Matthew McConaughey

Simple, basic pieces like jeans, khakis, t shirts (experiment and be bold with colors) & some accessorizing would do the trick for boys. They are more practical as they are very versatile. As for girls (having a girl will definitely burn a hole in my pocket!), I lean towards dresses with leggings - miniature versions of what we would wear, and accessorizing with trendy hairbands and shoes. I find myself browsing at the girls clothing section while shopping for Aiden, just to gush at how pretty the collection is.

Of course, comfort is an important factor so this is a key consideration when we select clothes for Aiden. Especially when he is so active, he needs to be able to move freely and unrestricted in his outfit. With the hot & humid weather in Singapore all year round, fashion options are greatly narrowed as blazers, jackets, vests cannot be wardrobe staples. We make up for this with a good hair cut and hair styling to complement his look.

Here are some pictures from our recent Hongkong trip - we'd share details of the trip in a separate post.
