MOMMA LOVES… cartoon style – pop print fun!

The kids know a thing or 2 that we can learn – like how great fruit is picked straight from the tree and that fashion doesn’t have to be so serious!

A bit of cartoon style pop prints are heating up the Moschino runway courtesy of Jeremy Scott and I think it’s a trend both you and your little one can enjoy together!

One of my favorite things about fashion is when its injected with a bit of whimsy which makes adding cartoon style pieces to your wardrobe essential.  As the mom to a 2 year old boy, it can put a smile on his face but also check my fashion boxes.  I have made reference to Jeremy Scott for Moschino’s wild references to everything from Sponge Bob Squarepants to Barbie but pop prints have has a huge revival and is not without it’s own fashion pop culture history.  In fact pop culture is actually a perfect way to categorize these wild and humorous cartoon style references.  Andy Warhol would have totally given his thumbs up!  Our world today can be far too heavy so why not feature some of those childhood caricatures and wild cartoon style colors in our wardrobe.   Of course, our kids have always known what we are just starting to figure out – fashion doesn’t have to be so serious – why not put some joy into the world with your style?  Sartorially cartoon style will always get attention for it’s over the top flamboyance – but don’t worry, you don’t have to wear head to toe crazy to enjoy this pop art trend.  Check out some of my favorite cartoon style pieces for you and your little ones and pair some of these pieces into your wardrobe and throw some levity into your fashion arena.
