Summer is just around the corner and that means its time to put away the sweaters and stock up on all new summer gear (because you know they don’t fit in last year’s clothes!). My tween daughter already informed me that she needs denim shorts and preferably in multiple colors! Here’s a break down of what you can expect the tweens to be asking for this summer and great ideas for tween gifts:
For Girls:
– Maxi Dresses – Moms love their maxi dresses and now the tweens can too! Pair them with a denim jacket like I did in this Vine video and the dress can go from day to night.
– Rompers – Rompers are BACK! Rompers are perfect for staying cool in the summer heat and for hanging out by the pool.
– Jellies – I LOVED LOVED LOVED LOVED my jelly shoes when I was a kid. So yes, I am very excited that now my tween can experience those fun plastic shoes with a funky scent.
– Colored Denim – Denim is a staple in all tween summer wardrobes but now it has a twist – colors. As I said before, Maddy has already asked me for colored denim shorts in purple and pink. (Luckily, she hasn’t seen The Children’s Place purple and white zebra print denim shorts!)

For Boys:
– Graphic Tees – From fun action heroes to quirky sayings, printed tees come in all types of designs.
– Lighter basketball shorts – Basketball shorts and a graphic tee are my son’s go to for summer. The Children’s Place has a lighter version of their basketball shorts to keep the boys cool while they’re running around.
– Matching Swimwear Sets – What summer is complete without a new set of swimwear? The Children’s Place is offering boy swimwear in fun prints that allow boys to match from head to tow – matching rash guard shirt, swim trunks and sandals!
For both boys and girls, bright colors will be the biggest change between spring and summer. Keep an eye out for the bright oranges, blues and purples. Also, check out the Vine video we did for The Children’s Place it features the maxi dress, colored denim and denim: https://vine.co/v/bUrVOmxue7L. Have fun shopping with your tween and as our My.LosTweens’tween reporters say, “Stay trendy and stay fabulous!”.
