My six-year-old daughter is just now reaching the age where she wants “trendy” clothes. I usually resist – throwing her the occasional bone by purchasing a graphic T at Target. I just don’t want her to grow up too fast. And I don’t want to waste money on clothes that will be “out” by Christmas. [...]
Remember back in the ’80′s when sweet calico and floral Laura Ashley dresses were all the rage? For little girls and not-so-little girls? Full skirts, shoulder poufs, sashes, peter pan and sailor collars? Jessica McClintock and Gunne Sax got into it too but the style was a little different. Laura Ashley was always fresh, clean [...]
So, let’s review. It is clear that I like pinafores (or jumpers, whichever term you prefer), Mary Janes and Indian-inspired tunics and dresses. Today, we’ll add little girls’ jackets to the mix. Because I like them. Might even love them. Not “love” like I want to make out with them and stuff but “love” just [...]

And one of her daughters had on the most delicious little jacket by ismodern. Here it is: The Honeycomb Studio Jacket by ismodern (on sale right now if [...]
It does take something special, something new, something unique to make me “SQUEEEE!” Okay, maybe that doesn’t ring true when I do that all the time here. But, people? I look at hundreds and hundreds of dresses, crib sets, rocking chairs, shoes, hair bows and the like. Only the ones that make me smile or [...]
I‘m a sucker for pinafores and Mary Janes. That has been established – here and here and here. Further evidence of my obsession was found today. I have one daughter and three sons. My obsession, of course, is wasted on my boys – who don’t care to be dressed in pinafores or Mary Janes. Here [...]
Tea Collection’s spring line is inspired by South America – Brazil, in particular. The fruits of this inspiration are delicious! I adore this dress – it is so simple and bright and modern. But still perfect for a little girl who is not trying too hard to be a big girl yet. And this polo [...]
