Rare The Kid is one of our favorite European Kids Clothes design houses in Italy because of their innate ability to take looks off their runway and translate them into totally wearable pieces. The offspring of the sensational Nolita Pocket for girls, Rare The Kid has been making headlines in European Kids fashion press ever since its inception. We love their Winter Collection’s Double-Sided Plaid Jeans because of its versatility; Wear them all winter long and roll them up come summertime to reveal the contrasting inner plaid. These jeans are truly a piece great for wearing year round!
If learning to tie their shoelaces leaves them kicking and screaming, do them (and yourself) a favor with Vans’ Double Velcro Closure Sneaker. The classic high-top style paired with cool blue canvas will go perfectly with their whole designer kids clothes wardrobe, from a pair of skinny jeans to even tights and a skirt!

Issey Miyake has been a leader in Japanese fashion for the past two decades by creating innovative and technology-driven, yet still very fashionable and functional, pieces that challenge the norm. Pleats Please by Issey Miyake is a line that was introduced in 1993 featuring garments cut and sewn with pre-pleated fabric to create interesting effects.
The Pleated Scarf by Pleats Please Issey Miyake is an absolute must-have for those with a discerning eye for style (and makes a great gift for mom!). The soft pleats in conjunction with the sheer fabric look great when layered and the length of the scarf allows you to tie it up in countless ways. Now that’s true versatility.
The Pleats Please scarf is also available in other colors.
MorMor, the Denmark-based company founded and run by grandmas, has taken the States by storm! The beautifully handcrafted baby clothing, kids clothing and accessories have been recently featured in Daily Candy, a newsletter and shopping guide that gives you the scoop on the hottest new trends. Here’s what they say about MorMor at Estella:
“It used to be that grandmas passed their time in rockers knitting sweaters and caps for their sweet, precious grandchildren.
But these days you’re more likely to find a granny rocking out than rocking back and forth.
Thankfully, there’s Mormor, a line of knitwear lovingly handmade by a team of Danish grandmas (the youngest of whom is 68 years old).
The cable cardigans, vests, leg warmers, and pants are made of organic alpaca, wool, and cotton and come in subtle colors like rose, aubergine, and gray.
Even the simple wooden button accents scream “grandma made me.”
While grandma is screaming for one more song.”

The Moon Lily Mobiles have been a favorite in our store ever since we received them as they create a serene environment with little effort. This month, the mobiles were featured in New York Magazine’s “Best Bets” shopping section and a part of our cool baby gear that compliments our designer baby clothing.
The artist Jan R. Carson’s desire “to extend time and the sensation of its endless, inescapable flow” are reflected in these beautiful silk leaf mobiles. Perfect for any room of the home. All designs are created from lightly starched silk and fine gauge stainless wire using only hand tools by the artist. Subtle variations distinguish each mobile as handmade. 50” diameter, 20” depth. Available in Original Leaf (green/yellow), Sunny Skies (blue/green) or Original Stem (purple/copper).
Casual, warm and amazingly comfortable, the Micael Riga Striped Hoodie by Album di Famiglia is an essential designer kid’s clothing item for this Fall and Winter. The wide striped style is an exclusive to Estella and is a perennial favorite in the store because it not only looks great, but its superior quality allows the fabric to retain its soft fleece-like texture through countless washes. Looks great layered with a cool tee and jeans.
For every purchase made at Estella this Fall, a Plumpy’nut Packet is given to a child in need. Plumpy’nut is a prepackaged, easy to administer peanut butter based concoction that helps severely malnourished children recover from starvation. Our very own Plumpy’nut bracelet furthers this cause as all profits, in conjunction with Action Against Hunger, go directly towards purchasing the treatment. The leather bracelet is adorned with a sterling silver charm and is designed by Regalia Silver & Estella. Great as a mom’s gift or for older children as the leather strap is adjustable. The bracelet is made in the USA and donated at cost to this cause by www.regaliasilver.com.
