Do you know what I've been trying to do lately? I've been trying to use humor to get through these uncertain days and terrible news cycles. Finding humor in times like these is super difficult. It's so much easier to yell and scream and point fingers and cry than it is to just laugh at the absurdity of it all. But if all we do is cry and despair, where we will find the energy to change the world ??
Without humor, we will truly be doomed. Erma Bombeck said it best: "When humor goes, there goes civilization."
So we're turning to the kids - because, well, they crack me up! Not to mention, they're the ones we're ultimately fighting for.
First, let me get this out of the way: these sweaters are way more dosh than I would normally spend on a child. I get it. So, why should you bother buying one? I honestly don't know. Listen. A luxurious cashmere sweater hand stitched in an ironic saying in size 2T- 6T is NOT going to stop the night sweats or cure the chest pains you feel when you're reading the Times with your morning coffee. What purpose will it serve? Well, our children's line is ridiculous and hysterical and we hope you can find at least a little humor in it. Whether you can make the splurge or not, I hope these cuties make you smile, or even laugh out loud. You deserve it. We all do.

p.s.: The photos were shot by Lindsay Brown who is seriously just super fun to work with.
p.p.s: These children are the besties of my two sons Maxwell and Dash (the blond boys in the photos). They've all known each other since they were babies! I adore every single one of these nuggets and can't wait to see who they grow into. Shout out to Calvin, Sasha, Sophie, Alex, Claire, Odessa, Gloria, Edison, Elyce, and Gemma. You are my peeps!
