Fab Kids Fab Fourth Patriotic Picnic – July 4th Kids Picnic Playdate

Have a fab July fourth with your kids by celebrating in style!  Last year, I hosted a red white and blue themed picnic which you can see here.  This year, I wanted to make it bigger and better. So Fab Kids partnered up with Mialandyn Events (whose rentable teepees and pillows you see here) along with Fresh Kids (healthy snacks) for a fun, free fashionable and patriotic picnic for friends and followers alike.  Now THIS is a July 4th kids’ picnic!The toddlers loved the mini golf setup on the great big lawn.

But there were also pretend ice cream shop stations and toy picnic baskets for the kids to discover inside each decorated teepee.

Everyone was challenged to celebrate in style by showing off how they rock red white and blue.  And boy, they did NOT disappoint!

I put together this little outfit for my toddler and it only costed $40 head-to-toe with hand-me-down, vintage and gifted items.

That French-inspired bowtie is actually a hair bow that I converted with a simple safety pin clip.  I’m a lucky mom.  She lets me dress her in all sorts of accessories and doesn’t seem to mind at all!

Finally, I thank all the many fashionable families who came out to celebrate a very #fab_fourth with us.

And of course the many mommies and their littles too!

Congrats to the winner of our #fab_fourth raffle!

My daughter, the GUESS girl

The outfit below was fashioned with a Guess Kids sweater/jacket that we purchased on our own.  I can’t help but jump in delight a little when I find fab furs for kids.  This one had the exact shades to match her pom pom hat so we had to snag it!

I have such nostalgia around the GUESS brand.  Growing up in the 80s, that was THE jean to have.  Who here’s an 80’s girl??  Remember how that triangular brand on the jeans signaled status, trendiness, and proof that you were part of the cool club?  It was soooo coveted!  So when GUESS invited us into their showroom, for an exclusive visit, we were so honored and couldn’t wait to experience their branded world.  Plus we got to walk away with some amazing items to add to our wardrobe (see all the wonderful pieces below)!

GUESS Kids, prides itself on being a fashion-forward collection of clothing geared towards the trendsetting boy and girl.   This black fur coat with its leather detailing would transform any toddler into a trendsetter for sure!  She gets compliments on it every time she wears it.  I think it’s because the women, like me are all secretly wishing it came in their size. Aren’t you jealous that it doesn’t?

The peachy, peplum top shown below is so girly glam that Juliet just HAD to have this one.  She actually picked it out herself and I’m so glad she did because when I brought it home, I realized it was the perfect underpinning for her new cardigan.  What an adorable addition to her wardrobe!

This lace, floral number screamed spring and made for a terrific Easter weekend outfit.  Here, we amped up the ladylike feel with some dainty gloves, a bright pink tutu and matching floppy hat and some bright white accessories.

Spring, here we come!

And finally, here’s Juliet twinning with a real GUESS jeans model, Gigi Hadid with her GUESS jeans.  After seeing all the fashion inspiration split pics on my Instagram account, @fab_kids, and featuring the ones tagged #fab_copy, I just had to get in on the fun!

So now basically after this incredible experience and all these gifted clothes, my daughter and I are now forever GUESS girls.
