Child’s play
Fashion during the Christmas season is celebrated in style. It’s the time of year when much attention is given to kids as they become the apple of everybody’s eyes. Adults turn into Santa as they delight children with presents. How can you resist the expectant look in a child’s eyes?
Candies and toys come aplenty for them. Their clothes come in different shapes and sizes, too. But but one of the most important style pieces a child would like to have is a good pair of shoes.
In the Philippines, Payless ShoeSource celebrates children this Christmas season with a variety of pretty and cute shoestoppers. Shoes are fashioning the young with latest trendsetting ideas that will make their holidays unforgettable. The look of chic kiddie preppy comes with a twist in modern interpretations. For girls, flats, sandals and lace-ups come in flashy hues that will truly make a statement. Sparkle and shine take the girls into the spotlight this season as they add glitter to every little step. For boys, fashion is all about the brave and the bold as bright tones add style to an ensemble. New designs in cool color combinations display stylish ideas on slip-ons, sneakers and rubber shoes.
Kids nowadays are chic as they dress up the holidays in on-the-radar footwear. Payless ShoeSource is stylizing the season with a list of must-have brands such as Airwalk, Champion, Disney Princess, Dora the Explorer, Liv and Maddie and Smartfit.
The current times have revolutionized how the young dress up. Fairy tales and fantasies that are normally costume-y are reinterpreted into the contemporary. Fashion for kids is channeling a sense of realism and is pushing the envelope in creating relevant stylish pieces.
