Girls' Clothing

In honor of the Memorial Day holiday and our nation’s troops, present and past, many kids are sporting the red, white and blue this weekend. And I know that many more will break out their patriotic clothes for Fourth of July weekend as well. There’s more to choose from than the flag t-shirt at Old [...]

We haven’t had much in the way of celebrity kid fashion here lately. Honestly, I’ve just been a bit lazy about looking for it. But I noticed a photo of Suri Cruise the other day in which she and her mother had on matching purple ballet flats. The caption said that the adult pair cost [...]

Today was the first day in a long while that it wasn’t cool and rainy here. Now that it’s sunny and warm and we don’t need raincoats or rain boots, I ran across this. A darling jacket by Boden – they describe it as “shower-resistant”. It’s cotton and has a detachable hood. And lots of [...]

I have found myself gravitating towards black and white stripes for myself this spring. Am I the willing victim of solid fashion marketing? Maybe. Oh, well…as long as it’s cute, I guess I’ll take what the stores are subliminally spoon-feeding me!

And then he went through a little Nordstrom shirt-shopping phase too. A Von Maur opened near us, good shirts [...]

And off to Etsy, I went. Here are a few [...]

I‘m in love with ruffles. Take a look at the ruffles on these little girls’ clothes by Chase ‘n Sky. They’re beautiful and feminine but not prissy. I just adore them.

The pieces aren’t cheap but they’re definitely not exorbitantly priced either. The pants are $38, the sweater is $58 and the blouse is $60. These [...]
