We have a confession to make, we love kid's clothes - for us. They're the perfect untapped resource, often half the price, lately just as stylish, and less likely to be seen on everyone in the city.
So we were scrolling through the GapKids site and found this too-good-to-be-true raincoat. (Natalie doesn't believe me, but I'm going to buy it as soon as I leave the office.)
It might be the cutest raincoat we've ever seen, aside from the Burberry trench we'll be lucky to afford ten years from now.
GapKids sells their clothing in such big sizes that we can almost always fit into the XXL (we're an adult size 8) - and it even has a hood!
If you're not one to wear a cherry-splattered raincoat, or you work in a more conservative environment where people would gawk rather than giggle, check out this boy's uniform blazer. It's navy blue, on sale and the perfect way to achieve a preppy 3/4 sleeve look that we swear will work with 99% of the clothes in your closet.
We hope it rains tomorrow!

My favorite blazer ever came from gap kids, it was the perfect shade of dark denim with the perfect amount of stretch in it. I left it at a restaurant and never saw it again. I was really upset about the loss for like a week.
I also love the little boys button-down shirts from there. Gap Kids is my secret shopping place for wardrobe staples.
