Raincoats by Day, Rats and Bats by Night: Mini Rodini Is Ready for Autumn

Mini Rodini has two reasons to look forward to September. The Autumn Shop arrives with weather ready layers made for outdoor adventures, followed one day later by Mini Halloweenie: a wonderfully strange little world of rats, cats, bats and mysterious noises after dark.

Mini Rodini has apparently looked at autumn and decided to embrace all of it.

The rain. The cold. The outdoor adventures that children have absolutely no intention of cancelling because of either.

And then, once the sun goes down, the rats, cats, bats, midnight snacks and whatever exactly is making that noise in the attic.

This September, the brand is introducing two seasonal stories back to back. The Autumn Shop opens on September 8, bringing together practical cold weather pieces designed for outdoor play. Then, on September 9, Mini Halloweenie takes over with a much darker (and considerably stranger) mood.

We’re starting with the sensible stuff…

THE AUTUMN SHOP

Wind and Waterproof Puffers

Autumn weather doesn’t always cooperate with plans, but Mini Rodini’s new edit is designed for children who would quite like to go outside anyway…

The Autumn Shop includes wind and waterproof puffers, bringing proper weather protection into the seasonal wardrobe.

Protective Shellwear

Also in the collection is protective shellwear, another practical layer designed around playing outside whatever the weather decides to do.

Rather than treating bad weather as something children need to hide from, the collection is built around dressing for it.

Cozy Fleeces

For the colder part of the equation, Mini Rodini introduces cozy fleece into the Autumn Shop.

Warm, practical and designed for outdoor wear, it’s exactly the kind of layer that makes sense as summer disappears and temperatures start dropping.

Warm Accessories

And finally, the small things that become increasingly important as the season changes: warm accessories.

Mini Rodini rounds out its Autumn Shop with cold weather extras made to accompany the rest of its outdoor wardrobe.

Made to Be Passed On

There is one idea connecting the entire Autumn Shop that we particularly like.

Mini Rodini describes these pieces as “quality made for outdoor adventures, and to be passed on.”

The collection is made using high quality materials with the intention that its clothes won’t belong to only one moment or necessarily one child.

They’re designed to be worn, loved and eventually passed down to siblings or friends.

For an autumn wardrobe likely to encounter rain, cold weather and plenty of outdoor play, longevity feels like a particularly good place to start.

And Then Things Get Weird…

One day after the Autumn Shop opens, Mini Rodini switches moods entirely.

On September 9, it’s time for:

Mini Halloweenie: Rats, Cats and Bats!

And that’s essentially all we needed to hear.

Rather than giving us a conventional Halloween story, Mini Rodini describes its new edit as being made for “moonlit adventures, midnight snacks and mysterious noises from the attic” with the excellent addition that some of those noises are easier to explain than others.

Rats. Cats. Bats.

Very Mini Rodini.

A little dark.

A little weird.

And much more fun than another predictable Halloween wardrobe.

LEMON Loves

Mini Rodini is giving us two very different reasons to get excited about autumn:

The Autumn Shop takes care of reality: puffers, shellwear, fleece and warm accessories made for children who want to keep playing outside whatever the weather.

Mini Halloweenie takes care of everything that happens once imagination gets involved.

Moonlit adventures. Midnight snacks. Rats, cats and bats.

And that unexplained noise upstairs?

We’ll deal with that later.
