Afiya Francisco was here to show the latest and greatest spring looks for the kids in our lives! Dressing our kids has never been this fun; with outfits that are so great they're being coveted by adults!
Watch the segment now in episode 171
Phoebe and Phoenix
We kicked the show off with a bang with the two coolest kids on the block, Steven and Chris' godchildren Phoebe and Phoenix, wearing looks often spotted on celebrities. Although she's rocking an 'adult' look, Phoebe's heart tights and graphic tee soften her metallic jacket and make her outfit kid-friendly. Phoenix looks sharp in his plaid ensemble - ready for a daytime trip downtown or his first trip to the golf course.
Madeline looks sweet and pretty and Henry looks sophisticated and suave in his linen trousers paired with a functional windbreaker and grey sneakers. Madeline's dress will last longer than most items in her wardrobe (the smocked body and straps that tie at the shoulders allow for some growth in both length and width). Henry's breathable linen pants allow him to be dressier this summer (compared to shorts) without sacrificing comfort or style - his windbreaker also keeps him ready for any unforeseen changes in the weather and is a great update to the hoodie seen on most kids.

Justine and Aidan
Bohemian dressing is always an easy out - whether it's for kids or adults. Normally the devil is in the details, in this case - just focus on colour, pattern and don't worry about a perfect press or fit - it's all about an easy, breezy spirit perfect for the summer! You can go clean, classic and neutral like Justine, or play with colour like Aidan did in her beautiful paisley dress!

Here are some sharp summer looks for that wedding, birthday, or museum trip in the city without looking overdressed, or uncomfortable. Paola's dress is fitted through the top, but flows away from the body allowing her to enjoy cool summer breezes and freedom of movement. Cooper is wearing an updated 3-piece suit in DENIM, paired with a pair of great sneakers to keep his look fresh and fashion forward.

Phoenix and Phoebe
Even though kids clothing is beginning to resemble what's in your own closet, don't forget they're still kids! You can dress them in button-front oxfords, linen pants, ties, cardigans and pretty dresses - but keep it cute! Phoebe looks great and grown up - but her bunny bag keeps it whimsical and appropriate for her age. Phoenix's look is all business in the front and party in the back - with a fun embroidered logo on the back of his cardigan.
