Each holiday I get my kids new outfits to parade around to our annual family functions. With an extended family of our size and two sides living in one town, you better believe there is a lot of parading for us. Since they happen to wear uniforms at their school, it is a royal treat to wear something other than a uniform and especially sweet if it is something new. Today I am partnering with Crazy 8 to share about their affordable holiday line of clothing that they are offering this holiday season.
We have been longtime lovers and supporters of Crazy 8 because the clothing line fits nicely in our family budget, yet doesn’t skip on style or quality. It was not a stretch at all to partner together since we have been such big fans over the years. There is always a good deal to be had and a coupon code to snag.
My daughter has a big personality and her clothes and style match it perfectly. She started ballet this year and playing a pink electric guitar. She’s really amazing. If I had to describe her in one word it would be, observant. She has this big personality, yet she takes it all in and never misses a thing. She has an incredible memory and gift for her attention to detail. She’s so incredibly smart.
Her personality happens to be as big as her infectious grin. Her favorite things are sparkles, tulle, and soft faux furs. She might just have a little bit of her mother’s style in her. We happened to find all three of these qualities in the Crazy 8 holiday line. This holiday season they have their usual New Arrivals, but they have also added Party Picks, Rule the Rink, Gear Up for Getaways, and Shine On that you can access on the left-hand side of the Crazy 8 website. This holiday season, Crazy 8 designers were inspired by traveling, ice skating, holiday decorating and snow days. If you follow the blog, you know all about our holiday decorating and our famous hot cocoa mix we love to indulge in.
The nice thing is that all of these lines also work together for a great mix and match to create your own outfits that fit your child’s personality. This outfit consists of a couple of Party Picks, a Gear Up for Getaways, & Shine On…all mixed together to create the perfect Emily combo.
My son, on the other hand, has a more understated style with a heavy reliance upon comfort and classics. He is pretty tall, five feet already, and I am thankful that Crazy 8 sizing runs all the way up to size 14. He’s a skinny kid and we love the adjustable tabs on the pants and the slimmer cut pant offerings that they offer for him.
His favorite item from the Party Picks line is this Herringbone Cap (priced at a mere $12.88). I haven’t seen him take it off since he got it. This look may have been inspired by his Uncle John who rocks a cap just like this and happens to be an artist (the very field he might like to pursue). At moments I have caught a peek at him out of the corner of my eye and have had to do a double-take because he looks just like my baby brother. Perhaps, that is why I love it so much too.
To describe him in a single word, the first thing that I think of is that he is compassionate. He always asks me how my day is and wants to know how he can help me. This kid still apologizes for making me get up early to help him catch the bus and will do just about anything for his sister. He is an awesome young man.
Shine On, Crazy 8’s current holiday initiative, celebrates the unique individualities and personalities that make every kid special which this mom absolutely loves. As you can see, my kids have totally different styles and personalities, but we were able to find a look for each of them.
In honor of this, Crazy 8 has launched a month-long #ShineOnCrazy8 photo contest. To participate you can share photos of your kids, describing their personality in one word and tag the photo #ShineOnCrazy8 on Instagram, Twitter, or you can directly upload it right to the Crazy 8 Facebook fan page tab. Crazy 8 will be awarding $88 gift cards to a winner each week during the month of December. How fun is that?
I hope you can take a moment to enter the contest and also to browse the new Crazy 8 holiday lines for your own family holiday parade that fits their personality perfectly.
