There's nothing better than seeing the confident smile on a child's face when they're dressed in their favorite clothes. Whether it's a tutu with cowboy boots, or a dinosaur t-shirt with a superhero cape, kids sure know how to own their style! Adults can find inspiration in this free-spirited approach to personal style. So, this February we're doing just that. Join in the Instagram #OwnThatStyle Challenge, be inspired by fabulous textiles from the museum's collection, and show off YOUR unique style!
It's all part of our latest exhibit and digital engagement project, "What's Your Style? Express Yourself!" which showcases quirky and classic styles from our collection of over 9,000 textiles.
- WHAT: Be inspired by a new look from our textile collections and share your style!
- WHERE: Instagram.
- WHEN: Every day in February.
- HOW: Check the theme of the day posted by @childrensmuseum, then share your style using #OwnThatStyle. Style themes range from #lace and #sweaterweather to #patterns and #90s throwback styles!
We need YOUR help to make this campaign a global success! Your contributions will be showcased in a dynamic map within the exhibit, showing families that everyone can have personal style, whether you live down the street, across the country, or around the world. We can't wait to see you #OwnThatStyle on Instagram!
