I am visiting from 5Min4Mom. I like your blog. I was trying to click on the subscription link but it does not seem to be working. The link in the welcome and the link on the far right both seem to be not working.
Your kids are spectacular. What I love the most about their style is that they are utterly fabulous and on-trend but they’re still *kids*. Well done, Mom! :)
Do they make their clothes for adults? I want their wardrobe.
Fab outfits. Love the Fedora hat so much. Coolest kids on the block surely?!
so sad that i didn’t look even remotely this cute when i was in school. though i guess grunge wouldn’t really look great on anyone, but still. so fun!
These are GREAT pictures!
No no no, some stylish little kids you have! Love Ralph’s laidback cool style and Maude looks like she just got out a page of J.Crew’s catalogue ;) Great outfits!
WOW. I wish I had some genuine fashion sense in middle school!
She looks so much like you. What cute, confident kids. I hope mine turn out as well. Good luck on a fabulous school year!
Excited for the Blair kids’ style blogs to inspire mine when they’re older. ;) Amazing coolness!
I don’t know why I love these series so much, of what your kids wear to school. It remind me of my school going days, maybe. It’s just tender. I love these posts.
I was such a major league DORK in 6th grade. Your little lady has such style…I want her wardrobe. Your son is super cool too ;)
Ridiculously hip! You have raised them well;)
She’s the spitting image of you! Great style…what I wore in 6th and 7th grade was so unflattering and downright embarrassing. Thankfully your kids have you to help them steer clear of fashion faux pas.
Will you please come over and dress me? And feel free to bring your kids’ clothes- I’m real short.
you blairs are soo cool. awesome. ;)
how is it that they’re more fashionable than I am (or ever was, really)? :)
Wow, can’t believe how much Maude looks like you in that pic with the fedora hat!! Awesome outfit by the way…
Mayer really does look like you! Gorgeous :-)
I wish I knew how to dress that well…!
Wow, you can really tell that Maude’s little face has changed since last year’s fifth grade pictures. My daughter is 11 yrs old too and it’s like witnessing a miracle to see how much she’s changed. I am so thankful that I am blessed to be a mother.
I LOVE their outfits! Super stylish! My question though is about the pillow on your couch…the linen/green tile print one….where did you get it? It is just perfect for my living room that is in the works….I simply have to have it!
Maude is a mini-you!!! amazing ;-)
xxoxo
I am mortified that my iPhone corrected Maude’s name! So sorry!! :-/
I always look forward to this post. Your kids are always highly fashionable, yet age appropriate. They look fantastic. Most definitely inspiring.
Thanks for sharing.
I always promised myself I wouldn’t fuss over baby clothes, yet here I am with a 7 week old and I have to catch myself when I walk past clothing shops. Your kids look great. They have miles more style that I ever will!
Love this post! I have a middle schooler too, and let’s just say “fashion” has taken on a whole new meaning at our house.
Adorable clothes but with 6 kids how on earth do you find the time to shop from so many different stores and online sites? I try to streamline shopping to one or two places…but then again I have boys who aren’t the least bit interested in fashion!
I keep saying I need Tim Gunn to help me shop, (I’m missing that girl gene – thank heavens I only have 4 boys to buy for) but I think I need you and your children to help instead. :-)
middle school? my 8-year-old has been wearing that fedora around for weeks…and it will be featured in our blue lily photoshoot in October….your June portraits pushed me over the edge to hire them, thank you very much.
Urgh im in middle school and anyone who wore any of these things would be considered a SOCIAL DISASTER! Kids these days wear hollister, abercrobie, american eagle, and stuff like that! NOT GAP
why is a on this site in the firstplace key word is MOM.i j’adore their outfits everyone should not follow the same trnd
I love this post and your blog. I just found you through Momoir on Facebook.
We are going to France soon with the kids – mon dieu! I’m a bit nervous about French etiquette and my kids … but if you can do it with SIX, wow. My chapeau is off to you.
Looking forward to reading more. (-:
I would like to compliment you for buying your child cute, age appropriate clothing that actually cover your children’s major body parts. As a MS teacher I have to spend valuable teaching time being the clothes police. You have proven they can look good, cool, and clothed!
I am a grandmother of 7 raising 2 girls 13&9 and 2 boys 11&9, When my kids were small they were in uniforms in Baltimore,We live in NC now so shopping for clothes is a headache,esp the 13 yr old who would like to let it all hang out,The fathers of the 9&11 yr old boys did their school shopping which was wonderful since they dress them like they dress themselves.My hats are off to the dads.The nine yr old dresses like your daughter, loves her TuTu’s and leggings and sparkly shoes,hats and purses. She likes TJMax,Marshalls and JCP.Keep up the good work
Cute kids and photos. I have 13 and 11 year old girls. My 11 year old can often be seen in the skirt/ leggings duo, and they’re both into skinny jeans. My 8 year old boy has only recently began caring – begging for the new “in” osiris shoes that “everyone” is wearing.
um.. by the way u can’t wear shorts unless they are up to ur knee so… ill just put some skinny jeans n kick it up
Why do they all look like 5… Did you hunt down the smallest 6th graders you could find?
