The Latest Trends In Kids Fashion, Fun & Lifestyle Blog

Valentine’s Day is a week away, and Honey Pie Kids is here for it! We celebrate in style, and LOVE being the best stop for the most fashionable children’s clothing in Michigan and online! Why not dress to the nines on Valentine’s Day, and host a fabulous Valentine’s party for all your favorite loves? We have a few ideas to make this party full of love. 

LOVEly Décor

A Valentine’s Day party could be one of the most fun to decorate for because white, pink and red are easy colors to find, and there are many options with theme. Check out the dollar store for crepe paper, streamers and circular paper fans that fold out. Add a few glitter hearts and some balloons, and you’re set. Adding some fresh flowers is easy too, because the common, but reliable, carnations in red, pink and white add some frill and beauty to the table without the cost. And carnations last a few weeks, so you’ll have fresh flowers to enjoy later. To add some volume and fluff to a table setting, a lightweight tulle or mesh gives a beautiful, ethereal feel. Valentine’s Day decorations can go light hearted and fun, light and romantic, or bright and modern. Go with what catches your eye and run with it! If you get stuck, even picking one color, and decorating with different shades makes for a great overall effect. 

Sweet Games

Valentine’s Day game are fun. Conversation hearts make for a fun game of bingo, and there are many free printable bingo cards online. Life-size tick-tac-toe is made easy with an oversized masking-tape (in pink!) criss cross taped on the wall, and small mylar balloons in Xs and Os make for a competitive game of an old favorite. Quick thinking games are always popular with kids, and any time they have to race the clock or other teams the competitive juices will start to flow. Scooping conversation hearts from one cup into another cup only using one hand and a flimsy plastic spoon is a game kids will love. Make an air popper out of a plastic cup and latex balloon, and “pop” conversation hearts into paper cups set up at the end of the table. Label the cups with different points and see who wins! Kids are easy to please, and even a simple game or two will go a long way. 

Heart-Warming Food & Drink

Food for a Valentine’s Party tends towards sweet. To start off with something nutritious heart-shaped anything will go quickly. A kid-themed charcuterie board with heart-shaped cheese and turkey adds a novel twist to an otherwise everyday food. Strawberries cut in the shape of hearts on skewers with banana slices or heart shaped watermelon bites makes an easy option to grab and not share germs. When it’s time for something sweet another board with some sweet snacks will be easy to come by. Red, pink and white m&ms are always a hit, and there are so many candies and Valentine’s Day cookies that will fill out the board. Even a fun mix of teddy graham cookies, mini marshmallows, and m&ms would be easy and fun to serve out of paper cups. 

Hosting a Valentine’s Day party for the ones you love is easy and fun, and of course always celebrated best in something from Honey Pie Kids. We love our Sweet Wink Magical Rainbow Tutu, and of course anything from Tutu Du Monde is perfecto (we love this dress!) for a Valentine’s Party with friends! Happy Heart’s Day from your friends at Honey Pie Kids.

Hour Detroit Article - Honeypie Kids Is a Perfect Fit for High-End European Style Children’s Clothes

For more than a decade, Kathy Marrocco-Mclaughlin has found the right fit for thousands of customers looking for luxury children brands that one would find in the boutiques and shops in European cities rather than at the local department store down the street. And while Honeypie Kids is local – the actual store is located in Romeo, Michigan

Marrocco-Mclaughlin ships worldwide, from United Emirates to Israel to New Zealand and everywhere in between. “We have been offering the finest children’s clothing and trends from around the world for over 12 years,” said Marrocco-Mclaughlin. “We have customers who find us just by walking by our store on Main Street in Romeo and other customers who find us from all over the world when searching for their favorite brands or for a certain outfit.”

When Marrocco-Mclaughlin came up with the idea for Honeypie Kids, she started with a goal of offering clothes and accessories that were unique, special and of the highest quality. “I wanted to offer high-end brands that most stores don’t carry and are more European in style and high-end both in quality and appeal,” she said. “I offer a lot of high-quality brands that aren’t available in this area.”

Most of Marrocco-Mclaughlin’s business does come from online orders. And everything she offers online is in stock and ships within 24 hours. Honeypie Kids also offers free shipping for orders over $99.

New arrivals to the shop have even become a popular viewing event online.

“Parents enjoy watching one of our employees, Danielle, post videos on our Instagram and YouTube channels of our new arrivals,” says Marrocco-Mclaughlin. “The videos get a lot of views, and I was told by customers that they plan their purchases by watching the videos.”

The store, located at 148 S. Main St., in downtown Romeo, opened in December 2016 and is open every day except Tuesday and Sunday. They keep regular store hours but customers can make appointments for other times that best fit their schedule.

“I have enjoyed having a store,” says Marrocco-Mclaughlin. “I come here every day to fill online orders and take care of that part of the business so it only made sense to set up a store. It’s been a lot of fun and I enjoy interacting with the customers. And when they walk through the door they are very surprised to see such high-quality clothes and these high-end brands in a shop here in Romeo.”  

Popular brands include Tutu Du Monde (Australia); Patachou (Portugal); 3 Pommes; Abel and Lula Dresses & Accessories; Angel’s Face (London); Antoinette Paris Hand Smocked Dresses ; Lola and the Boys; Mayoral Girls and Boys (Spain):  Mini Melissa Shoes; Ooh! La La Couture; Stella Cove Swimwear; and many others.

Collections include hats, beret’s and scarves; shoes and boots; girls hair accessories; leggings and jeggings; purses, bags and backpacks; shorts and tops; girls and boys swimwear; dresses and rompers; face masks; Christmas and holiday clothing; and much more.

“I look for something different,” Marrocco-Mclaughlin says. “I look for the latest styles from the top brands that use only the highest quality fabrics and materials. I look for the brands that are harder to find but have a large following. I also will reorder any out-of-stock sizes when available.”

Honeypie Kids has been featured in In Touch magazine and Star magazine and one of their dresses that is exclusive to HoneypieKids.com was worn by Julia Garcia, a young Disney Channel star from the Disney Show, Sydney To The Max to a movie premiere.

Honeypie Kids also is very active in Instagram with a large following. “Customers tag us in their photos of their children wearing their outfits they bought from us,” says Marrocco-Mclaughlin.
