This week my son returns to school and I'm making sure he has all he needs his third year, including a few items from Lands’ End Kids "2016 Back-to-School Collection".
Note: I received product sample for review purpose, however any personal views expressed are always 100% my own
The first item we needed was a backpack large enough to carry all his books, his lunch and any action figures he want to take for a walk to school. Because of course.....boys.
The Lands’ End Kids: Classmate Backpacks ($39.00) were a great fit for him. I've always been a fan that Lands’ End Kids backpacks because they have the front closure. This really helps my son carry his backpack in a more comfortable way.
The Classmate Backpacks also have double-touch bottoms, comfort-foam padded shoulder straps and numerous pockets for organizing made easy.
Backpacks come in five sizes made for every kid in school – preschool to high school. You can personalize your kids backpack by adding a monogram, embroidery or both.
The next item we needed was a jacket. I wanted one that kept my son warm, as well as stylish, during the cooler Fall days.
The Lands’ End Kids: Packable Primaloft Jacket ($69.00) was a good choice. The jacket was light but offer great coverage during weather changes.
The polyester shell can handle the wet weather, while the 100-gram Primaloft® insulation keeps my son cozy without adding bulk. It also packs into its own right-side pocket for easy storage.
As you can see Lands’ End Kids: 2016 Back-to-School Collection has great items kids need that parents will appreciate.

When I was invited to attend the launch of the Chuck II Kids collect, I learned about the Chuck II features, which includes a Nike Lunarlon sockliner, super soft micro-suede lining, a padded non-slip tongue, an embroidered All Star patch and monochrome matte eyelets.
Note: I was invited as media to this event and received a product sample for review purpose. However any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.
That sounds like a lot for a kids sneaker right? But as any parent knows, you need something like this when your child spends the day.....
My son is a very active child. So I need to find him footwear that will be comfortable and long lasting, while he zooms around doing all sorts of things.
Which includes:
Climbing everything at the playground.....
Going through obstacle and balances courses.....
Playing street hockey.....
Bouncing on a pogo stick.....
Playing handball.....
And joining other kids in a soccer game......
Did I mention this is ALL in ONE DAY?!
So yes those Chuck II kids sneakers need to be able to hang with my son. And I'm impressed that they did. Before each change of activity I asked my son how his feet felt, did they hurt, was he feeling soreness anywhere, did he need to rest?
Each time he said nah, he was good. Those Chuck II sneakers kept him comfortable and supported so he could be active and happy. Plus they were stylish so he was able to look good while doing everything. LOL
The Chuck II kids sneakers are available for purchase at Converse retail and online stores. They come in Black, White, Blue, Red and Black Monochrome and retails between $40-$60 USD for the low-tops and $45-$65 USD for the hi-tops

So my son met Taye Diggs. Again. This time they met during The MOMS #psMOMS #MixedMe event, where Taye Diggs and illustrator Shane W. Evans shared, read and signed their book Mixed Me.
Note: I was invited as media to this event. Any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.
My son and I first learned about Mixed Me when we attended BookCon and loved the idea behind the book. So you can imagine my son's excitement to meet the two guys who made the Mixed Me book, and get his own personally signed copy.
Both Taye and Shane were amazing with the kids. They took time to chat with each of them and make them feel special. But I kinda feel my son got just a bit extra.
While standing there watching him and Shane make chit chat and with Taye do a "special" handshake, I thought what an amazing moment for my son.
Yes this is Taye Diggs actor and all that. But more important this is a black parent and a role model. Something I keep striving to show my son to counter the negative media coverage that's been so rampant lately.
More then that still, this is also a black parent of a biracial child, who was motivated to make something positive and encouraging for the mixed race community. The fact that my son has access to see and hear Taye and Shane talk about Mixed Me, is truly special.
But they weren't the only ones doing something special during the event. My son was able to donate one of his toys to Second Chance Toys, an organization aiming to keep plastic toys out of landfills by donating them to needy children at local community organizations.
Meanwhile I was busy getting a sneak peak at PS from Aeropostale's winter collection. Time to shop for winter wear and a few holiday gift ideas!
Thank you The MOMS and PS from Aeropostale for a touching event with Taye Diggs and Shane W. Evans!

Weekends can be a hectic time for me and my son. There's the usual running around to blog and media events, after which we try to enjoy some play time.
With no time to change his clothes between activities, I like to dress my son in kids fashions that will look great and keep him comfortable anywhere we go.
Note: I'm a Saban’s Brand-Bassador and share news about their products. I also received New Balance product for review purpose. Any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.
One recent weekend, our schedule was full. That Saturday we went to two family bloggers events: first to the Fruit Shoot Kids Drinks event and then to The Moms and Old Navy event. After which we headed into the park for a playdate. Did I mention there was no time to change?
What my son wore
I opted for my son to wear a Paul Frank graphic tee that featured Julius the Monkey acting out the head, shoulders, knees and toes song. The shirt was bright and fun.
The Paul Frank kids clothing line celebrates Paul Frank’s fun and free spirit and will have your kids playing in style! This graphic tee and other Paul Frank items can be found at Nordstrom.com, Macys.com, Amazon.com, Lord & Taylor, Bon Ton, Belk.com.
For footwear my son wore New Balance python-themed sneakers. The sneakers matched the colors of his shirt perfect. They had a bright blue design with neon lime laces.
As unique as its namesake, New Balance Limited Edition Python 890v3 ($69.99) are daring with bright colors and a cushy ABZORB crash pad. These kids' running shoe is a playground pleaser with non-marking rubber outsole that parents will like.
My son loved what he was wearing and received many compliments on his outfit. I was happy he stayed comfortable as we dashed from one place to the next. Through it all my son looked great thanks to Paul Frank and New Balance!

I recently learned about Okabashi, a line of affordable and environmentally friendly casual footwear made in the United States since 1984.
Please Note: I received a pair of Okabashi shoes. Views expressed are always 100% my own.
I like that idea that all Okabashi footwear is designed with a massaging insole, arch support and ergonomic foot beds. As someone who's on my feet for most of the day those features are REALLY appealing.
But that's not the only cool thing about the Okabashi brand
Okabashi has teamed up with Better World books to celebrate Holidays with Sole. Starting November 1, 2011, for every pair of Okabashi shoes purchased online through December 31st, Okabashi Brands will donate a pair of shoes to a homeless student in need.
Better World Books will also be conducting a parallel program by donating an age-appropriate book for every book sold on their website. Donations will be distributed to Atlanta area schools in late March.
And if that's not enough motivation for you to buy a pair of Okabashi, then maybe knowing that Okabashi operates a clean manufacturing facility which only produces 100% recyclable shoes will be.
Other Okabashi’s unbeatable features:
100% recyclable and contains 30% recycled material (Good for the Planet)
Supportive with a massaging insole that helps relieve foot and back pain. (Good foot relief post workout)

During Fashion's Night Out, I interviewed Laila Ali, Vogue’s FNO at Destination Maternity celebrity host, to learn about the embellished designer "Celebrities 4 Maternity Denim" collection, Laila and 8 other celebrities have put up for online auction.
Note: I was invited as media to this event. Any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.
During my meet and greet with Laila, I asked about the design on her decorated designer denim for the Destination Maternity and March of Dimes online auction, "Celebrities 4 Maternity Denim"
Laila Ali: I had so many different ideas for designs but in the end, I decided to go with a look that was simple, current and something that I felt most women would actually want to wear. Love was the perfect theme for moms to be!
I also asked how she juggles work and family. Laila and husband, former NFL star, Curtis Conway, have a son, and a daughter.
Laila Ali: I make my family a priority. They travel with me and I always make time to be there for them. I'm a hands on mom so I don't travel with a nanny or use one when we're at home. I love being with my family.
Celebrities 4 Maternity Denim Collection
Like Laila, the other celebrities, including Heidi Klum; Naomi Watts; Jewel; Camila Alves; Busy Philipps; Diane Farr; Kaitlin Olson, and Nicole Sullivan, believe that family is one of the most important parts of our lives.
By embellishing a one-of-a-kind pair of designer maternity denim, these 9 celebrities are taking part in the initiative between Destination Maternity and the March of Dimes to raise awareness about the importance of preventing preterm birth so more babies can get a healthy start in life.
