Pop Street Kidz

We continue our Back to Cool series with designer, Fore! Axel and Hudson’s Fall 2012 Collection. A quick swooping view of it would appear to be signature Fore! with the fedoras, golf-inspired polos, tailored-fit pants & one consistent color that we have recognized in every season’s collection – red, not just any red but Tiger red, as in Tiger Woods the professional golfer red.

Taking a Style Ride with The Outsiders

From the beginning what's hot in fashion and style has been largely influenced by Pop Culture. It's been proven that if you want to reach the masses and move them into action, then using a Pop Culture reference is the best way to do that! Everything from movies, music, print, and of course novels gets their attention. Pop culture transcends language and cultural differences even more so now in this technology and social media driven age. Read more …

Back to Cool ~ Taking the Bull by the Horns with La Miniatura

Those of you that have been around POP Street Kidz for awhile know that I along with Amy & Stephanie are straight up, no BS shooters! When a designer or product is promoted on our Facebook page or website, we solidly stand behind it 100%. With 9 kids between the 3 of us, we've been around the block enough to know what floats our boats, trips our triggers and is simply worthy enough of our undying attention & promotion. Read more ...

Kawaii Style ~ No Passport Required

Little z Kidx

Kawaii in loosely translated Japanese means Cute, Adorable, Style that is child-like. The "Kawaii Way" of dress generally includes crayon-colored cartoon characters, lots of layers, fun totes/bags, unique color combinations and pretty much just a hip, fun & uninhibited way of dressing! I've always said that kids have all the fun when it comes to toys, shoes, bags, not having to work and of course their wardrobe! Let's face it, a kid could pull off wearing any mish mosh of clothing and still look adorable! Read more ...

The Breakfast Club 2012 Edition

It was 1985 and John Hughes took 5 barely-known, young actors & actresses and turned them into cult classic movie stars. Filmed in part at Glenbrook North High School in IL, he re-introduced the Jock, the Princess, the Freak, the Brain and the Rebel and put them under a microscope while they all served out a Saturday detention. Mr. Hughes made anyone that saw that movie realize that deep down, people are all the same. Similar to "You never know what time it is in someone else's life" - one of my favorite quotes.

Strolling with Shampoodle A/W 2012

“Daddy, I want a golden goose!” - remember this famous line, as it rolled off the sharp as a stick tongue of one very spoiled little girl in Willy Wonka? Well wanting a pet of any kind is a natural childhood obsession, they all want one and more times than not, the one they want is not something you as the parent would choose. Read more ...

Maximum Overdrive – Mini & Maximus A/W 2012

Based in Los Angeles, CA, Mini & Maximus or MIMA as they are often referred to, has stolen our hearts with their Artist-series designs, water-soluble inks, sleek fit and a trio of silky-soft, earth-friendly fabrics including bamboo/cotton, 100% organic cotton & a modal/cotton blend. They produce designs that answer the call of every child’s rebel yell - last season’s “If the Music is Too Loud, You’re Too Old” tank sold out almost instantly as did most of their other tees & tanks and of course who could forget the Are We There Yet? black & white contrast pants?!? Coming this Fall, MIMA has returned to bring us to our knees and ready to whip out those credit cards for first dibs on their newest collection. Contrast pants are back in a rich chocolate brown with bold white stars and trimmed front pockets. Quirky conotations on their tees has been “signature MIMA” since their launch and they continue it with perfection. Read more...

So you want your kid to model…

You see them everywhere. So, you want to model ... Those handsome little devils and pretty princesses dressed up in the latest fashions, or just that cool little bowtie or hat or hair bow that was handmade by a small boutique or mass produced by the latest up-and-coming full-line brand. You just know that your little fella or baby girl is cute enough to be in those pictures. You can see it. Your friends have told you. And you get LOTS of likes when you post pictures of them on your favorite social site.

And you may be right. There are lots of opportunities to “break in” to the kids modeling world. A unique little micro-industry has popped up in recent years that can be the stepping stone to bigger things, or just a unique opportunity to spend some quality family time in an activity that is both enjoyable and potentially lucrative (at some level).
