Back To School Blog Event – Tea Collection, Children’s Clothing – $100 Giveaway

Congratulations to our winner, #139 Laura in California!!

Back-to-School shopping for children isn’t always all it’s cracked up to be.

In fact, sometimes it can be an unpleasant experience hauling kids from store to store. I don’t think it matters what age they are … most children just do not like to go clothes shopping.

Tea Collection makes back to school shopping fun, easy and rewarding. Fun because their selection of designer children’s clothing is stunning. Easy because their website is user friendly and you shop from the comfort of your home. Rewarding because their clothes are well made with rather unique styles. Their ‘Modern Mexico’ fall theme makes me smile. So much so that I bought my 8 year old grandson three new shirts to wear back to school. And I simply couldn’t resist the Bird of Paradise dress for our grand daughter to wear to kindergarten.

Tea Collection’s Girl’s Clothing is “an explosion of pop culture and market day colors” with an accent on Modern Mexico. Absolutely adorable!!

The Boy’s Clothing line is perfect for the playground or … anywhere else. Boys of all ages will love the designs. Perfect for active and imaginative boys! I personally am crazy about the “for little citizens of the world” line of shirts and jackets.

My favorite Baby Clothes have always been the one piece rompers or bodysuits. Tea Collection has taken a baby’s comfort one step further and added style to it. “Global inspiration infused with warmth”!

Tea Collection Pirata
Every single item of clothing I looked at was made of 100% cotton. I like that!  And how about this darling grandson of mine. Doesn’t he look ready to take on the world and … second grade?
