Shop News and a Giveaway!

Well, like I said in my last post, here, Oliver is now 3 months old, sigh.  And besides little man getting bigger and bigger by the minute it also means I have officially been on maternity leave from the shop for 3 whole months already.  So last week I was a busy little bee putting together pretty fabric combinations for a whole new line of fall dresses as sort of a Grand Re-Opening of sorts.  Yahoo!

So without further ado...

I just added this sweet little number a couple of days ago...I love Heather Bailey and I love her Freshcut line!  This dress is perfect for back-to-school wardrobes everywhere!



I just love this dress for Fall.  The orange.  The plaid.  LOVE!  I am going to dress my girls up in a matching set with a pair of tights and snuggly brown boots.  It's the perfect dress for the apple orchard or pumpkin patch, don't you think?


I love this dress for the bright colors.  Orange and blue are such a lovely combination on the eyes.  Need something cute for family photos this year?  Well, this is your dress!  And there are two more dresses below that coordinate nicely with it incase you have a few more girls to outfit!


Oh, how this dress makes me smile!  When I put this dress together I had my little Eloise in mind.  Her blue eyes 'pop' just like the blue in this dress :-)


And can you believe that this dress coordinates most awesomely with the two above it?  Yup, I had a few sister-sister coordinating ideas in mind that I thought you might like too.  The florals in this dress are especially sweet and girly to me!


And finally, due to popular demand, I now have some Crossover Pinafores in the shop!  These are fully lined so they can be worn reversed for two looks in one!  I added pretty little snaps in place of buttons to the straps of the pinafores to help little hands dress themselves easier...mommas, you are welcome! :-)

These pinafores can be made in size 3m-3T although you can wear them as tops up to 2 years past the specific age size.  So a 3T pinafore would fit great as a top for a 4 or 5 year old!  I LOVE clothing that can last many years.



And one last new item in the shop I'm so excited to share with you...Coordinating Diaper Covers!  These babies are great additions to the Crossover Pinafores and the Flutter Sleeve Peasant Dresses!  There is just something adorable about a coordinated little bum :-)  You pick the coordinating fabric based off of any dress or pinafore in the shop so you can get the exact look you are going for...awesome!  These are also uber cute for cake-smashing photos too, fyi.


Well, that's it!  I hope you like some of the new styles and fabric combos now in the shop.  I am still  offering some of the dresses from last Spring although in limited quantities based off of my fabric supply, so order them while they last!

Now, how would y'all like a giveaway?

New Flutter Sleeve Ruffle Peasant Dresses in the Shop

Yup, you read that right!  I finally opened up my Etsy shop again about 2 weeks ago and I have a whole stock of new dresses in there!  Hooray for second trimester energy and feeling completely back to my old self again!  And as many of you know from our Facebook chats, I also just ordered a what feels like a UPS truckload full of fabric bolts that should be arriving today (who's excited for more pretty fabric...me, me, me!) so look for even more dresses and sweet baby gifts hitting the shop in another few weeks.

All these styles are available in sizes 6 months, 12 months, 2T, 3T, 4T, as well as 5 and 6 years of age.  PS. You can click on the links below the images to go directly to my shop.  Hope you like them!


I just love the whimsical florals and soft pinks of this dress, super girly girl.  Plus it would be perfect for Easter Sunday, don't you think!




I love the bright pops of color and the pretty flowers in this dress.  How sweet for St. Patrick's day too (coming up soon!)




This sweet number was Eloise's Valentine's Day dress but of course it would be perfect anytime of the year! 



This little number was Penelope's Valentine's Day dress.  You all know my love of dressing sisters in coordinating but not overly matchy outfits, right?  And if you don't, well, I LOVE it!  I think these two dresses did that perfectly!  See a picture of my two cuties in their dresses in this post here :-)



And of course some stripes for the stripes lovers out there.  I love the greens, yellows, and blues in this dress, it feels like spring is in the air...which it will be soon, yahoo!  

I hope you enjoyed a little Spring Preview from my shop!  
Enjoy your weekend and we'll talk soon.

XOXO,

New Dresses in the Shop!

Now that summer is over and I've got two of my littles in school a few hours a week, I thought I should finally get a few more products in my Etsy shop.  Unfortunately Etsyland takes a backseat during the summer months and the majority of my orders stay local, thanks local lovelies y'all don't know how blessed I feel by your support of my shop!  But right now let's just say a big hooray for back-to-school and the fact that I now have few hours to create some pretty frocks for all of your little girlies!


First up in my shop is this Flutter Sleeve Ruffle Peasant Dress in Multicolor Butterflies.  This adorable dress can be made in sizes 6 months to age 6!  I love the bright colors of this dress...doesn't it make you happy!  



Remember seeing this dress here?  Now you can have one of your very own, holla!   The Flutter Sleeve Ruffle Peasant Dress in Pink and Green Mod Flowers is available as a custom order, sizes 6 months to 6 years.  



This A-line Dress with Vintage Ruffle Bib and the coordinating pillowcase dress (below) have been hugely popular since they made their debut in this blog post here.  Thanks to so many of you who have inquired via email and custom ordered this dress I have decided to start offering it in the shop in sizes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 years.   



And Eloise's Little Girls Pillowcase Dress in Children at Play is now ready to order as well, sizes 6 months to 6 years.  Also, all of my dresses can have coordinating diaper covers made up to age 2T for an additional fee just inquire about them within the shop!   

Did you know that all of the dresses shown and more that I sell in the shop transition well into the colder months too?  Just add a long sleeve shirt underneath and a pair of knit legging, tights, or a pair of jeans for the perfect cool weather look!  Once your little girl grows out of the dress she can even wear it as a top...love that!  Versatile clothing that can be worn year round and from year to year is a win/win in my book!  :-)

Hope you all have a great weekend!
We'll talk soon!

XOXO,
