12:28:13_IMG_3101For the Matilda Jane Green Pearl dress that we got earlier I had to get a matching Gumdrop tee and Sprite leggings to wear when weather gets colder. I was afraid that all three pieces together might look pajama-like with so much of the same color, but surprisingly it turned out quite nice. For Ellie I put together an outfit in contrasting red colors. She’s wearing Oilily Djazz corduroy dress from Around the World Winter Expedition collection and Matilda Jane Cherry tights from Serendipity collection. With greens and reds we’re extending our Holidays for a bit. For the shoes Ellie is wearing Livie and Luca Holland boots, and Alice is wearing PePe Prairies.

12/24/13 Christmas Party

12:24:13_IMG_2385_ChristmasAs promised, here are the dresses – aren’t they amazing? Recently I discovered this brand called Poppy from England. Turns out no retailer sells it in US. What?! Somebody, please start selling them here, because these dresses are dreamy! Ok, here is the story: Poppy is an adventurous girl who has a dog Fred and goes with him everywhere. Every dress comes with a book of a little story about this or that adventure. That’s what’s so special about them – they are not just border print dresses, they are storytelling border print dresses. Both of my girls are wearing the same outfit: Martha dress in red from the Aunt Eva collection by Poppy over Persnickety Cream Mesh basic tees with Cream Mesh cuffs, Persnickety headbands, and almost the same Livie and Luca Peacock shoes in black, Alice’s are with cream peacocks and Ellie’s are with pink.
