I wasn’t excited when Missioni came to Target. This was my first exposure to the brand and didn’t find anything I liked, so I let the craze pass me by. Then I heard that Gwen Stefani was bringing her children’s clothing line to Target and my ears perked up. That I could get excited about. I know Gwen Stefani and like her style, also, I have been looking for something different for the kids in the clothing department.
Today I went to check out the collection and I was disappointed. Mostly, I found t-shirts with little girls with huge heads and other pieces that look like what the “punks” wore in my day. None of it really what my kids like to wear. One thing did catch my eye and I am hoping Amber likes it, because I am thinking it will be her Christmas dress. Sure it is the same old plaid, but I like the details that made it a tad different.

A simple black or red long sleeve shirt and we are good to go.
I am not sure it will be what Amber likes.
Let’s face it she is 9 years old and bouncing on the line of tweenhood, hormones and all.

These tuxedo shirts are cute. Especially paired with this skirt:

Matter of fact this looks like a skirt that I wore when I was in high school.
Some of the things that I wasn’t excited about:

I don’t get the big headed little girls on motorcycles.

Again something that I use to see when I was in high school.
This look can be easily achieved with some leggings and a skirt over it.
I can’t even find the boys selection online. I saw a few pieces in the store, but nothing that I thought Sam would wear. I think the biggest disappointment was the lack of selection for boys. If there is one market that needs a boost it is the boys clothing market. I wasn’t sure what I was expecting from this collection, but this wasn’t it. I guess it stays in line with Gwen Stefani’s style, but not really what I was looking at for my kids.
