You guys might know of a very popular children's Rain-wear and accessories brand called Kidorable? If you have never then you need to check them out now. But there are big news from Kidorable—exciting improvements for their products are on the way, plus their first price change in 4 years. Kidorable is a premium brand—all our core lines are now the best available in the market. Click here to see the changes for yourself .
Kidorable Coats are changing from PVC to a lined PU (same quality and materials as our Dora the Explorer and SpongeBob coats) and will be available to ship starting September 2nd. The price for these new coats is $39.00 These are lighter, more comfortable and more attractive than PVC. Everyone loves these coats. 100% of people they tested much prefer these to our regular coats. The addition of a printed pattern liner makes the coats more special. With a nylon liner for the raincoat because nylon is water proof and matches the feel of the PU. The PU+nylon is much lighter, easy to fold, and carry to go.
More than just a raincoat, these can be worn every day, all spring and fall. Kidorable Umbrellas now all have a fun custom handle, setting Kidorable apart from all others. The new handles will be gradually phased in over the next few months. The new price, effective September 2, is $13.95 Kidorable Boots now have a custom printed lining, adding to perceived value. Together with our custom sole, this lifts Kidorable boots above anything else on the market. No other company has a fun custom sole and printed lining. The new price, effective September 2, is $29.95
My 2 favorite rain sets for boys and girls are featured in this post! We have 4 sets: mermaid, lucky cat, ballerina, and the old retired houndstooth English Roses (I miss the English Roses line by Madonna **Sad POUTY face** :-( !!!! ) Even more than the sets of boots/jackets I love their wooden hangers and the backpacks (link above). But which one do you like best? One featured or a different one from the site? What do you think about the new changes? Thanks for reading!

Halloween is really tied for Christmas as our favorite holiday in the year! Even I still dress up and walk with the kids, and have since Giana was an infant. Never too early- never too old. That's our motto! That's why we were all super excited to get this Disney Brave Hero Childs Halloween Costume review, for BuyCostumes.com!
I have all kindsa info for you if you are looking for a Brave Costume, then the best place to start is right now on BuyCostumes. First it should be noted that the only item(s) gifted to me was the costume itself, not it's accessories. Lucky for me this costume is exclusive to BuyCostumes AND comes with the wig! I love it when you have to have a special wig, and it comes with the costume. After all, that is part of what you need to dress up as her. The other things seen in pictures came from the Disney Store at a decent, but slightly high price. Then I found links to all the things we bought there on BuyCostumes, for a better price than anything I found directly from Disney. Brave Costumes & Accessories
Childs Bow & Arrow Costume Accessory Unbeknownst to me, who paid $20 for her bow & arrow, Buy Costumes has pieces that are more than acceptable substitutes. Although the cheaper models are not "Disney" that is really unimportant, anyway.
Sparkle Ballerina Gold Child Shoes Seen pictured on BuyCostumes model (click the link to see the shoes, as they are not the shoes pictured above, but a very good substitute) for this costume are $24.99, I like that BuyCostumes shoes (not pictured) can be worn past Halloween. That's the kind of shoes I look for when choosing Costume Shoes. The shoes above, cant really be worn for anything other than dress up or costume. For instance, she can't wear them to school. However- I do like the ones we have better. One reason why is they open up at the back by velcro for easy off & on. One shoe is open in picture (above) as an example. Ours are hard to find in store, and often unavailable online. Took us a while to get them. They were back-ordered for Gianas size, which is actually a 4, and the largest the shoes (above) even come in is a 2/3 but luckily, they fit. Good news for you is the shoes on BuyCostumes site & model do come in the size we would've needed, and they are all In Stock!
X-Small (9/10) In Stock
Small (11/12) In Stock
Medium (13/1) In Stock
Large (2/3) In Stock
X-Large (4/5) In Stock
Our treat bag was almost $10, and this one on BuyCostumes is over 1/2 off that price, at only $4.99

One thing we forgot to get, and still need is a

Was:
$39.99

She’ll look independent and oh-so adorable in the Disney Brave Merida Deluxe Child Costume which includes a shimmering aqua dress which features a character cameo with Celtic trim on the chest and a brilliant red wig with voluminous curls.
Thanks so much to BuyCostumes for sending this great costume/wig combo to us. Giana hand-picked it out herself this year and she was really excited about it, as you can see in the pictures. Again, it should be noted the only thing sent to us for free was the Costume/Wig combo. We paid ca$h money for the Disney shoes, bow & arrow and treat bag. Thanks for reading and feel free to share comments or thoughts below. What Halloween costumes are you guys using this year! You should see if it's available on BuyCostumes for a better price. I found all of my stuff there. :)
