*updated with winners, below!*
If it was a plausible career option, I would pursue a profession in children's styling. This is insane, I realize. Even somewhere like Los Angeles where people hire personal shoppers to buy their kids birthday presents and it's totally a thing. So is nail-polish on dogs and cat strollers. But fashion is always in fashion no matter the age group and dressing one's daughter is more fun than dressing one's self. Er, to me it is. Arguably my favorite part of the day is the "getting Fable dressed" part. Thinking, "Hm. What's appropriate for the day's events? Hm." I get to play Rachel Zoe to my favorite client-- she who attends fabulous events on the daily that include, "drawing in the kitchen" and "pointing at stink bugs at the children's museum!"
Ah, the life. Some of my favorite "red carpet" "stained carpet" fashion + fun moments include:
Stripes + Polka dots + Pigtails + Park =
trick-or-treat buckets double as sand buckets 'round these here parts
Leggings + Jumper + Cardi + Sneakers + Dancing =
Vanilla Ice Cream + Strawberry Dress + Red Shoes =
and speaking of ice cream...
Ice Cream Dress + Bow + Legos =
Tiny Tee + Leggings + Sneakers + Flower + Drawing =
Floral + Denim jacket + Sandals + Toy chest =
And for the finale... dunt dunt duuuuuunt....
couture dress + pool hair + fuel efficient vehicle =
This dress is the product of Fable + WWW + GGC.
(Fable chose the sunglass print fabric. I chose the floral/birds. My mom sewed.)

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 480 of 480 Newer› Newest»Finding myself coming of age as punk rocker/psychobilly chick, it has been far from easy to try and use those influences in my daughters daily stylings, but in such struggles, I discovered I've got a child far more interested in bohemian and indie styles. So my favorites include one that more reflects her as an individual, and one of my styling influence. My favorite of her own choosing: black long sleeve sequined shirt+ black dance leggings+brightly colored pop artish floral jumper+first day of preschool, beginning her treck through school as the artsy bohemian dancer, making mommy so proud. Her clothing, under my influnce would have to be black and white striped leggings+pink plaid skirt+lil boys halloween rib cage printed t-shirt and denim jacket+twilight hours at the childrens musuem. Close second has to be sailor dress for her first picture day, but who can resist a preschooler in a sailor outfit?

Mines a little older now, but back in the day, it was the Jeans+Sweat Shirt+ and Tennies at the Park.
Boring I know, but with little boys, you're just hoping that they don't kill themselves being too wild. Fashion sense doesn't mean too much.
ewalsh40(at)gmail(dot)com
I love putting my 10 month old in loose cotton dresses... Because, it forces her to walk instead of crawl.
