The children's fashion sections have become a fantasy for adults. Above all, since we discovered that parallel universe of Zara Kids inhabited by children's clothing capable of fitting in with the morphology and style of many women. The little ones' clothes are no longer strictly 'children's', since they faithfully reproduce catwalk trends in a 'mini' (and not so 'mini') format. The size 13 of this Inditex firm delights those who do not exceed the threshold of 1.60 meters in height. The footwear, which covers from size 30 to 40, has become the wild card for those who want to update their looks without breaking the bank in the attempt. And the accessories, especially if we talk about bags, are a candy for accessories lovers, especially irresistible in the summer season.

The guidelines of adult fashion changed course last year, recovering for our wardrobe the memories of our earliest childhood. Blouses with Peter Pan collars, colored lace, honeycomb dresses, strappy tops with bows, mary janes, lucky lollipops and even those Velcro sandals that were seen so much on the northern beaches back in the 90's. If before we stole our mothers' clothes, it seems that now the tables have turned to sweeten an image that years ago the great designers have tried to sophisticate by all means.

'Influencers' such as Paula Echevarría, Teresa Bass or Dulceida are just some of the women who have acknowledged having latched onto one or another piece from the Zara Kids section on more than one occasion. Another example of what it means to take children's clothes to the adult field without failing is Carmen Gimeno from Bilbao, who once again shows signs of genius in the art of 'mix and match' by mixing her colorful clothes with the accessories we have signed in the 'mini' version of Zara.

Clogs. Those hybrids between a shoe and a sandal with a wooden last seem to want to find a place in our wardrobe at all costs. Although we looked at them with some suspicion a few seasons ago, it seems that the trend is beginning to take shape at street level. That its reinterpretation appears in children's format only confirms our suspicions. In vibrant colors and with the studs seen as an unmistakable stamp, Carmen Gimeno has included this shoe reminiscent of the seventies among her essentials for the season. A bohemian dress is her best dance partner and a matching jacket finishes off another of those personal outfits that have made this Biscayan a style icon on a national level. These clogs are available in the new Zara Kids collection up to size 39, and there are also versions in mustard and brown tones.

Bags deserve a separate chapter. Who hasn't longed for one of those special carrycots every time summer arrives? Well, at Zara Kids they seem to have compiled each and every one of the designs that have been trending in recent summers. From the candy boxes, to the crochet bags, through the mesh bags or the many and varied wicker baskets that Carmen Gimeno has already incorporated into her dressing room. His choices are a shopper and a multicolored braided shoulder bag from the new collection (available for 22.95 euros and 17.95 euros respectively), and a shell-shaped raffia bag that was reduced to 12.99 euros and is currently Is it sold out.
It seems that this summer we will be children again.
