Dressing for kids.
I just had to get some sparkleyness going on; my niece loves sparkles!
She is depressingly tomboyish in her dressing, but then, so was I at age 11.
We had a great night last night, and as expected, I was in bed quite early!
I had a nice read, a nice sleepy bo, and was glued to my book (the Stieg Larsson one) again this morning whilst the kids thrashed away in the lounge.
They're so easy, feed 'em, power 'em up, and away they go.
Of course, we had a little break to watch Glee, much to the boys dismay.

Ooh I'm loving that blue number on you, looks a bit 50s too!!
That first outfit is divine the way you've gone minimal with the metallics and blues and that slappy green backdrop. The other two I can only think candy! Your colours are delicious! It's like the flowers on the headband have just spontaneously sprouted out of your head! Sproing! The necklace G gave you is a terrifically precious gem.
That dress is fabulous!!!

FABULOUS as per usual! :D Loving the 80's frock. You are such a fox! I'm obsessed with tapestry/60's handbags at the moment, and the one in your last collage is gorgeous! XO
That 80's number is fabulous I adore the colour!! I bet if anyone can switch a tomboy to a fashionista it would be you. xxx
Love the silver and turquoise number but that paisley purple is my pick of the bunch! Give it to me baby! The headpiece has to be the "star".
Love that dress its silver accents are delish! And that flower crown is fricking amazing, I need to make one that big. Aaaw kids are fun xxx
I love the first dress best of all xxx
I can't choose a favourite, I just can't!
Love the sparkly 80s-does-50s frock, such a fabulous colourand print; adorable sleeves and print on the purple/pink dress, and that headpiece is wondrous (and always good to be pookie-accessorized!); and orange+polka dots=HEAVEN! Tapestry bag envy going on here...

I love the sparkly outfit! I can't wait till my niece is old enough to hang out with and do fun girly things with (she's 2 in August). My nephew (who is 4) is happy to help with cupcake baking though :D
Oh another wonderful dress, I thought it was a 50's pretty.
Red polka dots always a fav!!!!
Hope your date night with G was fabulous!!!

Question: Is there any colour you do not like and will not wear?
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous??
Oh, I wonder if you allowed the niece to rummage around in your closet if her tomboy ways could be...uh, challenged.
