Cool Kids' Accessories For The Smaller Style Set
April 19 2013, Published 3:25 p.m. ET
Kids fashion has come a long way, particularly in the accessories arena where you can now find child-friendly versions of some of the same baubles and trends grownups are currently coveting. Considering I come from an era of banana clips (yikes!) and slap bracelets (which my younger brothers totally used as weapons against each other—why did anyone think those were a good idea?), I'm a little jealous of today's super-cute offerings.

So what's "in" these days among the younger style set? Jamie Reeves, founder of Blonde Mom Blog, says, "Head to toe neon is fun for tween girls, from socks to watches (with glow-in-the dark faces) and mustache theme jewelry is quirky cool!"
