Holiday 2011 - Trends to be sure and include in your kids closet!

Trend #1:  Animal Kingdom: Cat's may be the preferred pet in fashion this season, but other animals have found a home on clothes for kids too. Look for owls, hamsters, horses, bears, moose and more!

Trend #2: A Little Bit of Lace: Last year designers dressed down sequins for everyday wear. This season, lace takes a casual turn, moving beyond dressy dresses. Lace prints on easy knits are especially popular.

Trend #3:  Ruffled Up: Everything's coming up ruffled this season. The frill embellishment makes an encore performance on school clothes, dresses and shoes.

Trend #4:  Fluff 'N' Stuff: European designers are big fans of fur, feathers and other fluffy stuff. Nearly every collection on the runway got the soft touch with fluffy embellishment or fur accessories, including collars, hats, ear muffs, scarves and boots.
