Posted May 9, 2010 by Emilie with 994 Comments and 15,622 views | -

Tea is a universal drink, enjoyed around the world. It was the perfect name for this children’s apparel company, meant to celebrate diversity and the beauty found in different cultures. Tea Collection began modestly in 2002 and has grown to be sold in over 400 stores, including such department stores as Bloomingdales, Nordstrom and Saks Fifth Avenue along with many high end boutiques. Have you discovered Tea yet?

Each season the Tea team travels the globe for inspiration. The current season certainly has an Asian flair, with the clothing inspired by Korea. This clothing line is sure to make your child stand out and get noticed. Mix and match collections are available in 3 piece sets up to 9 pieces sets to make the start of your day just a little bit easier. Imagine how simply packing for a vacation would be with these collections? Tea Collection is now available for ages 3 months to 8 years so you can enjoy Tea for even longer!

We received two adorable outfits including the Sea Turtle Tee & Ticking Stripe Short Set for Lucian while Warren received a Fish Tee and Journey Cargo Long Short. Tea Collection is something that I think you need to see in person to fully understand the quality. While I thought they clothing looked nice online, it does not compare to how I felt after I received the items. I am in love with this clothing. So much so that I’ve started scouring the internet for discount codes and browsing the site, trying to figure out what to purchase next! The quality is absolutely fantastic and the bright, bold colors have me sold. I seriously could not be happier. Should I stop gushing now?

I appreciate the extra long shorts which are perfect for our shorter Minnesota summers. Lucian’s Ticking Stripe Shorts are so soft and have a bit of a a thicker weight. I can tell they are very comfortable and they make me jealous. I wish they came in my size! Warren’s Journey Cargo Long shorts are lighter in comparison but still very comfortable and look amazing with the colors in his tee shirt. Both tees are very soft, high quality and have a unique design. Perfect for my boys who are certainly unique themselves!

If you are blessed to have a little girl then you will love all the fun options also available as separates or mix and match collections. Just look at a couple of the many girls clothing sets and separates to choose from. Good luck deciding!

Buy it: Prices vary per piece. The Sea Turtle and Fish Tees featured retail for $19 while the Ticking Stripe Shorts are $23 and the Journey Cargo Long Shorts are $35. These are also available in 5 piece sets which retail for $79. Buy a set and save! Today only (Mother’s Day) enter code MOMCARE and receive free shipping!
