Quick snapshot of the two everyday coats we wore this season. I’ll try to post more pictures of the different coats that the girls were wearing, as the season is almost over. Alice is wearing Catimini Black Flowers coat. Ellie’s military style coat is Sonia Manteau in blue velour by Eliane et Lena.
The dresses from Persnickety Holiday collection of 2014 can be easily worn after the Holidays. Ellie’s dress is Cassie long sleeve tunic, two sizes larger than her usual size – for length. Alice’s dress is Mallory in tan. She’s wearing it with Elsa braid headband tied around her waist as a belt for the dress. For the actual headband – Holly in hard version. Ellie is accessorized with Red Holiday necklace, also by Persnickety, but from 2013 collection. Her hair clips are by Joyfolie. Both girls are wearing Eliane et Lena tights, Michiko on Ellie, and Lola on Alice. PePe boots in black suede with brown bows on Ellie, and red Aster Mariana boots in Chili Bronx suede on Alice.
Trish Scully paisley pleated dress in tan/black, with simple black Zara tights, and Joyfolie Lacey boots in tan – on Alice. Her hair clips are Joyfolie, that came together with the boots. Ellie’s outfit is: Janie and Jack Lace Print dress in tan/black, Eliane et Lena Michiko tights, Pageboy hat by Jak & Peppar, and Kickers Billy4 patent leather ankle boots in beige.
It’s not Thanksgiving yet, but all the stores are Christmas crazy already! I love Thanksgiving/Fall color palette with burnt reds, orange and browns and don’t want to miss this short time window of dressing my girls in those colors. But the girls started to count days until Christmas and for this trip to the mall we chose a little more Christmassy outfits. Alice is wearing an older Persnickety Owl Holiday tee with Black Ruched Waist Skirt from their 2013 Golden Girl collection, and Red Button Tab Leggings from Fall 2012. Red Aster Mariana boots in Chili Bronx Suede complete her outfit. My little Ellie is wearing Eliane et Lena Reinette dress in Carreaux and their Eva red striped tights with black legwarmers. Her black suede boots with the bows are by PePe.
Beautiful burnt fall colors, perfect for Thanksgiving! Little Ellie is wearing Eliane et Lena outfit of Hana dress and Alice leggings in curry brown from Rock and Folk collection. Alice’s plaid shirt-dress is called Sindy and is by the same brand, from the same Rock and Folk collection. Her pants are Jak Painter Skinnies in red pinstripe by Jak & Peppar. Boots are Livie and Luca Stitchers in Vintage Brown on Ellie, and PePe Brocade Maisole in Taupe on Alice. Girls are accessorized with headbands – Persnickety Brownie Pie hard headband on Ellie and Jak & Peppar Stevie headband on Alice.
Alice is teasing Ellie about her thumb sucking and repeating everything she does. We are trying to teach little Ellie to stop with that habit. Not easy. She’s wearing Eliane et Lena Atsuko dress over Matilda Jane Puffer tee and Cherry tights. Her pretty bow shoes are Adele Black Polka Dot by Joyfolie. Alice has Persnickety outfit on from their Golden Girl collection: Cream Peasant top, Brown Corset, and Brown Lily skirt. The headband is Persnickety Sarah Jane in Brown, and her boots are PePe Prairies in Faded Brown.
Bright fuchsia day. Ellie: Eliane et Lena Pat Fuchsia dress with Oxford Street Eva tights in Choco/Fushia, also by the same french designer, and Gap hat. The shoes are PePe Mary Janes in Star Print. Alice: Mini Boden outfit of Everyday T-shirt in Blood Orange/Cerise stripe, matching Fine Stripe tights (those were sold in packs of 2 together with teal tights), and Washed Velvet shorts in Mid Grey. Her bow boots are Joyfolie Maci Gray. She has fuchsia flower clip in her hair, also by Joyfolie.
I admit, I have a weakness for gray/neutral palette, kinda Les Miserables style… That Eliane et Lena Atsuko dress on Ellie I would get in every size for years to come – I absolutely adore it! She’s wearing it with Colibri Beige tights and long sleeve matching top, also by Eliane et Lena. PePe suede Mary Janes in Star Print. Alice is wearing Deux par Deux layered look dress with matching leggings from their London Pulse collection. PePe Mary Janes in Antique Bronze.
This is a great look for an older child to start transitioning to tween fashion. No more childish cute ruffles all over! Modern clean silhouette with asymmetric lines. Well, we still want to keep some ruffles on our leggings, and we’ll pair our outfit with some rough vintage looking Prairie boots by Italian shoemaker PePe. Alice’s dress is Lotusette by Eliane et Lena. The green ruffle Grassy leggings are by Matilda Jane from their Almost Summer collection. The headband with peacock feathers I got from eBay from someone who makes them.
Alice is trying on her new Persnickety Pink Paige skirt and Triple Ruffle Black Dot leggings from Nob Hill collection. Eliane et Lena Vignette top is a great fit for this outfit.
