Patriotic Kids Clothes for Memorial Day & Fourth of July

sassyandgeorge — Sat, 29 May 2010 18:42:29 +0000

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 Navy though!

Suri Cruise & Her Shoes

sassyandgeorge — Thu, 27 May 2010 02:52:09 +0000

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 $150 and the child’s pair cost $75. So I went hunting for other pics of Suri and her shoes…despite the press she gets when she sports a little heel, girl loves her flats.

Here are the purple ones (love the dress):

And these (I actually found two different pics of these shoes – she’s wearing socks in each):

Some open-toes slingback flats:

And these little leopard-print babies:

And…a few to check out for your own little girl/shoe addict:

Fun Girl’s Raincoat from Boden

sassyandgeorge — Sun, 23 May 2010 03:04:09 +0000

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 dots. Very cute dots.

At $56, it’s not Target-cheap but it’s not anywhere near the $1,000 Burberry kids’ trenches I refrained from featuring here…

Black & White for Little Girls This Spring!

sassyandgeorge — Sat, 15 May 2010 05:07:20 +0000

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 I’m loving the black and white striped options for little girls too! Though not classic “little girl” – no pastels, no flowers, no frills – there is something terribly sweet about a girl in stripes. Even black and white ones. Sweet and kinda punk rock at the same time. My kinda girl…

Black & White Stripes for Spring

Although it seems a bit contrary, a bit punk rock, black and white on a little girl can be quite sweet.

Custom Dresses from Daddy’s Shirts

sassyandgeorge — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 21:03:54 +0000

My husband has always been a bit of a shopper. Until Harold’s closed last year, one of his favorite spots to shop was the clearance rack there. Always had a few XL gems for a good price.

And then he went through a little Nordstrom shirt-shopping phase too. A Von Maur opened near us, good shirts there as well. And good sales.

So, my husband’s shirt wardrobe rotates fairly regularly. In fact, he wanted to get rid of quite a few old button-downs last year. So many nice shirts that I couldn’t bear to just give them away (especially knowing what they had originally cost), so I sold about a dozen shirts on Ebay. That was a pain in the butt.

But take a look at this option for recycling Daddy’s old shirts. Lillipops Designs (a.k.a. Jayme Lillie, a clearly fabulous mom) will take a man’s old button-down, add some fun, patterned cotton and produce an absolutely darling dress for your little girl. Jayme will recycle a shirt chosen for you or she’ll use one that you send to her.

There are several different styles currently featured at the Lillipops Etsy shop, including some very cute flower girl dresses. I especially love this one:

Halloween Costumes on Etsy

sassyandgeorge — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 05:37:14 +0000

It is time. The Halloween catalogs have started arriving at my house. My kids are changing their minds about “what they will be” for Halloween on a daily basis. And, unfortunately, every costume idea so far seems to be mass-produced crap. Can’t we find something better?

And off to Etsy, I went. Here are a few great kids’ costumes I found:

Complete Star Wars costume with tunic, robe, belt and pants by mulliganstewboutique, $140

Max from Where the Wild Things Are by katesy, $89

Little Bo Peep by WandasWhimsies, $75 (try to ignore the creepy mannequin/dress form head!)

Snow White by littleshepsters, $45

DJ Lance Rock from Yo Gabba Gabba by bamdesigns, $40 (Seriously, one of the weirdest shows I’ve ever loved…)

Pebbles byRaeGun, $39.50

There are more but I had to cut myself off at some point. I hope you like some of these. I’ve gotta run and convince my oldest to be Max, King of All the Wild Things, for Halloween this year!

Ruffles and More Ruffles By Chase ‘n Sky

sassyandgeorge — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 16:01:06 +0000

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 are all from Chase ‘n Sky’s fall line and are available for pre-order at juice.
