h&m&unicef

 

i bought a bunch of new clothing for kai as we gear up to colder weather season.  it’s such fun picking out clothes for little ones.  you are probably thinking, ‘but connie it’s so much more fun to buy for little girls’.  well, maybe.  granted, the inventory for cool boy clothes is  limited and i am very picky with his clothing i.e. tops must have a rectangle shape, no squares allowed; the pant leg cannot narrow in unless it is a skinny jean, they must be straight legged; cute is ok but not cutesy (there is a difference)… i know i have issues!  so, as a result, kai doesn’t have a lot of clothing but what he has is actually worn and, if i can say so, his wardrobe is pretty cool.   i think if i was shopping for a girl it would be equally fun but harder because of the sea of pinks, fussy detailing, and cutesy that is bombarded on them.  just saying.

anyway, let me get to the point of this post - h&m.  i usually have to visit different shops including consignment to get a worthy wardrobe for kai.  however, my recent shopping trip was mostly done at h&m... 6 sweaters and 3 pants.  i wanted to post about h&m because they have collaborated with unicef for their fall collection.  a portion of the sales from their 'all for the children' collection will go directly to unicef to help children in impoverished areas of india by improving access to health and education.  they even have a wonderful little playhouse available!  the prices are higher than usual for h&m but worth it, i think.  i picked up a gorgeous knitted sweater from the collection.  take a peek:

and do take a look at the sweet video here.  will you shop the 'all for the children' collection?  i hope you will.
