Pennymeade Classic Children’s Clothing Review & Giveaway

Welcome to the “Whatever Goes” Giveaway Hop hosted by Mommy’s Favorite Things and Mama’s Baby Cupcakes.  This hop is an open theme so whatever the blogger wants to showcase goes!! After visiting my giveaway, make sure you use the linky below to take a look at the other bloggers and see what they have to offer! Each blog has a minimum prize package of $25 per winner.

Please let me introduce you to the terrific kid’s clothing company that is sponsoring my addition to this giveaway hop:  Pennymeade.

Pennymeade’s collection calls upon a classic British sensibility and a time when children’s clothing was simpler, more versatile, and endured both in quality and style.  Pieces by Pennymeade are meant to be mixed-and-matched, and that kind of flexibility is always a benefit.

I was able to try several pieces provided by Pennymeade, and the kids and I both loved everything.  (Plus, see that packaging? They had me at “Hello, look at these ribbons.”).

For my daughter, we received two shirts, a pair of pants, and a hair bow; for my son, we got a shirt, hoodie jacket, and a pair of pants.  Her outfit is from the Regal collection, his from the Quarterback.

I wish I could explain in words how much my daughter loves this hair bow, but I don’t think there are enough descriptors in the English language.  Suffice it to say it’s been a staple in her daily wardrobe since we received it.  (Mommy keeps telling her that it doesn’t match some of her outfits, but this information doesn’t seem to phase her.)  She’s also very fond of the crown design on the knit shirt, because, well, she’s her mother’s daughter.

My son was really excited about his hoodie.  Just look at that grin when the hood is up!  Like my daughter’s floral print set, his also coordinates with a blue plaid pattern.

Each piece is made of soft, comfy 100% cotton.  While these outfits are technically casual, you can see how they’re a touch more sophisticated than your typical casualwear.  It’s nice to have clothing options that are comfortable but still very nice looking.  I can take my fancy little people out and about town in their new sweats and not feel like they look sloppy.  They’re cuter than ever!

And as for me, I think all the pieces are darling, and I love the fact they all coordinate so nicely.  Each piece has at least a little hint of its collection (even the pants have drawstrings that match the prints on the other pieces).  It makes everything just feel a little more special.  The quality is fantastic, and I really do think these pieces will hold up for a long time.  Pennymeade calls them “heirloom quality,” and while it’s doubtful anyone will hand down a long-sleeved football t-shirt to future generations (don’t tell my husband I said that), some of Pennymeade’s more formal pieces could absolutely end up being heirlooms.  Their Special Occasion line has gorgeous pieces for both boys and girls, and I could easily see all of them being handed down, thanks to their high quality and the classic, timeless designs.

When you have a few spare moments (I know, I know), browse around the Pennymeade site to view all their collections.  They’re a real treat and the “models” are sure to make you smile.  You can also keep up with Pennymeade on Facebook and Twitter, or through their update blog.

Pennymeade is generously offering one Game On Mom reader the chance to win a Heather & Holly Hooded Sweatshirt (for girls) or Platinum and Plaid Hooded Sweatshirt (for boys) (ARV $48)!  Giveaway is open to US residents who are 18 and older.  Ends 2/24/14.  Good luck!
