AJ Panda is happy to announce they now carry Lucky Wang NYC apparel for children.

Saint Louis, MO (PRWEB) November 24, 2010

In an effort to further expand their product lineup, AJ Panda is now offering children's apparel by Lucky Wang NYC. Lucky Wang's Asian-inspired designs are famous for their fun and hip look, bright colors, and durability. Some of the new items AJ Panda is carrying include playsuits, jackets, onesies, and kimono tops.

AJ Panda currently offers an assorted selection of children's apparel like cheongsams, dresses, pajamas, jackets, and shoes. The hope is that the new Lucky Wang apparel will bring a better variety of clothes for parents looking for Asian clothing, but not necessarily strictly traditional pieces.

"We really wanted to expand our product line, but with a better emphasis on quality and style. Even kids want to look great and parents want an apparel line on which they can depend," quotes Marjie Trautt, general manager of AJ Panda.

Lucky Wang apparel is currently on the site and is expected to be a big boost for Christmas sales this year. Most apparel is offered is sizes from 0-3 months up to size 6.

Durable shoes sought for Serna Village residents - Sacramento Bee

Posted: 23 Nov 2010 11:55 PM PST

The kids of Serna Village have shoes.

However, some shoes are hand-me-downs, which means they're too big, too small – or worn out. Some are inappropriate for the season.

A teenage girl fortified her flip-flops for winter by wearing them with white athletic socks, and another goes to school with her big toes peeking out of her sneakers.

Cottage Housing Inc., an agency that operates Serna Village at McClellan Park in North Highlands, is asking Book of Dreams readers to provide the 109 youngsters and teenagers living at the complex with good-quality, durable shoes that fit properly.

"I went around the community to ask the residents what would benefit them most," said Rochelle Robinson, youth development coach. "They said shoes and coats. Shoes are hard to come by, especially for families with four or five kids."

Rebecca Butler's 15-month-old son, Christian Golden, is growing so fast that she keeps his feet covered with socks. The money she budgets for shoes goes to her 7-year-old daughter, Shyleigh Sanders, because she's in school. But Shyleigh is growing quickly and will soon outgrow her sneakers and boots.

"For most people here, even though it's low-income housing, there are bills to pay, and people are on fixed incomes. I see kids running around barefoot," said Butler, who moved into Serna Village last May. "And kids lose their socks, so foot odor is a problem, and they ruin the shoes they have."

Robert Tobin, president and CEO of Cottage Housing, an agency that advocates on behalf of homeless people, said shoes are a priority for residents at Serna Village.

"It's a healing residential community of 83 families, most (headed by a) single parent, and three-quarters of the kids are coming back from foster care," he said. "There are a lot of issues being resolved, and shoes really are an issue."

Needed: Good-quality shoes for each of the 109 children and teenagers living at Serna Village.

Cost: $3,820
