McQueen Rain Boots

Hello Everyone!

  Well, I have a little boy. And if you have a boy too, you already know who Lightening McQueen is (character from Cars cartoon). And your little one is probably obsessed with him. At least that's my story, my son loves him so much, he has everything with McQueen. How many red cars toys? I lost count. Finally he got something with his favorite character that is actually useful, rain boots. I was looking for rain boots for him anyways, the weather is going crazy over here, all the snow is melting away already, leaving slush and dirt everywhere.
So we were strolling in Walmart when David screamed "Mama, McQueen, Mama!" One thing is hard for me to understand; how does two year old sees everything first??? Anyways, he got his boots, put them first thing when we got home and even wanted to shower in them! And the next day the same thing... And the next day... At least now it all calmed down, but still it's the only shoes he agrees to put on when going out.
  So if you have a little boy who loves Lightening McQueen and hates putting on shoes when mommy asks him, it's definetely a very good buy for you. He will be happy to be a part of the race team, and you will be happy you are not racing after your boy to put on his boots. Win win situation! Just one tip: if outside is still cold, don't forget to put very thick warm socks, those boots offer zero protection against cold.













P.S. And guess what, David's hair is styled with Ligtening McQueen hair gel! That same trip to Walmart, when mommy was choosing her hair cream, David was apperantly choosing his own. I didn't realise until I got to cash that there is one more McQueen product in my trolley. Well, even kids need style!




Have A Good Day,
BONUS:  we are sending you big KISSES!!

TT: Best time to buy clothes!

Hello everyone! Tip Tuesday is here!

   We all want our precious ones look amazing and have fashionable good quality clothes. But the bad part is, it is often expensive. So here is my best tip today... Buy clothes at the end of the season! Maybe it is not the secret for the most of you, but rarely we actually plan main shopping at the end. Most of the time, we try to run and buy at the beginning of the season. The logic is very understandable, but the prices can be sky high, especially if we are talking winter clothes. So right now, it is the perfect time to stock up on jackets, sweaters, hats, etc! If you need some seasonal clothes for an adult or older teenager, the task is easy, they barely change from year to year (teenagers grow more significantly, but still somewhat predictable). But when time comes to choose clothes for kid, it can get trickier. My advise is to buy clothes one year size bigger. I remember buying exactly a year ago one pretty little sweater for my son from ZARA, just for fracture of the cost. And guess what, it fits him perfectly today! It sat in his closet for a year, but didn't lose it's value.
But there are two things that i would not recommend you to buy for same season next year:

  • Clothes that are highly fashionable. Certain fashion trends last only troughout one season, so next time this season comes, those clothes will looks old fashioned ( and we don't want that, don't we?)
  • Shoes. I find it extremely hard to calculate which size of shoes child would wear in one year from now. They grow unpredictably and shoes are sized by just some numbers, not by age. Your little one could grow two, three or even four sizes up in one year. 
So go run for those crazy sales now, before they put all spring clothes up and winter ones disappear. You will be surprise to see all those things you wanted being up to 70% off! Good luck on scoring those deals!
