Chelsea Kaplan’s Musings About Life... After Birth

PoliticalWares(towear)

Posted by Chelsea on October 25, 2007

The ‘08 election won’t take place for another year, but it’s never too early to start campaigning for your favorite candidate - especially when said campaigning involves purchasing new clothes. In the Thursday Styles section of today’s New York Times, there’s an article about cool campaign wear for adults. Why, though, should you stop with just dressing yourself all blue or (gasp) red? I’m all for using your kids as little political statements too.

I live in DC, so all things political are sort of the norm here. I’m a big ‘ol Democrat, so naturally, I buy things for my kid that reflect such. Here are some examples:

When my son was 4 months old, he ate his first solid food wearing this bib, which I got at Washington National airport.

I also used to outfit him in these shoes from trendykid.com (the ones on the left, of course). When I took him to vote with me last November, he was wearing them, and got sorts of oohs and aahs at our true-blue polling place.

There are some seriously cute - and witty - items available to show your support for your favorite ‘08 Presidential candidate. Here are some of my personal faves:

The “My Mama’s for Obama” tee from babypolitico.com ($16-18).

I worship this “A woman for President? Has the world gone sane?”
bib from cafepress.com ($9.99).

Kinda diggin’  this “Bill for First Lady” onesie from cafepress.com too ($13.99).


And, of course, lest we leave out the Rebublicans, the Cheney/Voldemort baseball-style tee from cafepress.com ($22.99).


Brilliant!

    • Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day® All Purpose CleanerMrs. Meyer’s Clean Day® All Purpose Cleaner
      I don't understand gals who claim to loooove cleaning. That said, I do get a certain joy from using Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day® All Purpose Cleaner to care for my home. You can't lose with this stuff...it is hard-working & earth-friendly, and will leave your abode smelling like a day spa instead of a chemical spill. Try Lemon Verbena in the kitchen and Basil in the bathroom. At only $7.99 a bottle, you can afford to pick up both!
    • True BloodTrue Blood
      Um, does this even need a caption? Doubtful, but let me just say that this is the hottest hour on television. Vampires are seriously sexy (especially Eric), and on this show you get to see a lot of them--if you get what I mean. Put the kids to bed and flip the channel to HBO on Sundays at 9 p.m. to taste the fun that is True Blood.
    • Valentino Bow Thong SandalsValentino Bow Thong Sandals
      So comfy and feminine, I know I'd wear them all summer. But dang, that much money for jellies? Possibly worth the splurge. $275, nordstrom.com
    • New Balance Kids’ Sneakers in wide sizesNew Balance Kids’ Sneakers in wide sizes
      My boys have wide feet, which means finding cute shoes for them is tough. These, however, rock. Prices vary, visit nbwebexpress.com to purchase.
    • Zoya “Laurie” Nail PolishZoya “Laurie” Nail Polish
      This sheer pink polish is, without question, the PERFECT nude pink. Plus, the polish is free of formaldehyde, toluene, camphor and dibutyl phthalate (read: yucky crap that isn't really safe for prego gals). $6, enailsupply.com.
