Spring Fashion Dreams in January-by Sheridan French

First off I'd like to congratulate Sheridan and her family on the birth of her new little girl last week! I can't wait to see photos of the clothing that she puts her in! Please enjoy her January fashion guest post...

January often has a dreary feel to me - particularly when it comes to fashion - given that the festive holiday season has come to a close and it's back to our every day routines. There is too much grey and black roaming the streets and grocery stores! Keeping color at bay during the winter months is not necessary, especially on little ones. Kick their spirits (and yours) up a notch with punchy pieces that are begging for spring.

Caramel Baby & Child offers wonderful options to fit the bill. Richly colored cardigans, flouncy blouses, and gorgeous-beyond-words skirts and dresses for little girls will always keep you longing for next season. In my opinion their line is comparable to J. Crew when it comes to hip versatility and chic eclecticness. Nearly all their pieces can be mixed and matched for the perfect "I just threw this on my daughter and she looks amazingly adorable and naturally stylish" look. The boys' collection this winter leaves a teensy bit to be desired or me as far as color goes, and if we're being honest when do boys clothes ever really match up to those available for girls, but the rough and tumble yet still put-together look is there in full force. Very British, very cool, and you can't go wrong no matter what you throw on them. Does it get any easier than that?
