I sure do… I got it at POUT!

And then my mommy and I took it up to Ria’s and modeled it so we could show it off to all of you. I was pretty excited about it all.

How do you think I look? Pretty cute right?

Yah… I know.

And don’t worry if blue is not your color… it comes in pink too! And they both look simply adorable in photos.

Have a great Memorial Day Weekend everyone… thanks for letting me take over the blog today to show off my ruffles.

A few weeks back I did some product shots for Jordon at Georgia Grace Designs.  For the next couple days, my lovely readers have a chance to win one of her most adorable little red and pink bubbles. It is 18 mo size and looked so darn cute on Eliana. (Yes… “target girl” came back up to help me with the photoshoot!)

The spring line for Georgia Grace is now available so make sure to go check out her other cute stuff. The ruffle leggings are my favorite! Plus… Jordon has also agreed to do another giveaway to her shoppe this spring so keep watching the blog for that!

To enter for a chance to win this bubble, just leave a comment on the blog and one lucky winner will be randomly chosen on Valentine’s Day, Monday February 14th, at 4pm CST.

Jordan, from Georgia Grace Designs is offering $50 to her shop! She actually found my blog because I had posted a photo of one of her tie-knot dresses in my post about what to wear. She sells these adorable dresses in her Etsy Shop and also has a Facebook fan page where she posts sneak peeks of new lines, sales and discounts.  Jordan has also offered a discount to all of my lovely readers! Just convo her through Etsy and use the code “rialee”  to receive 15% off your order through Thursday. (Not to worry, if you are the big winner Jordan will refund the $50 to you.)  Just leave a comment on this post to enter. The winner will be announced on Thursday, April 1st. Good luck!

My daughter Kennedy and her friend Kenzie modeled for us at the workshop. People who bring their kids in to model always ask me what they should wear, and I always respond by saying it doesn’t really matter… they are just there for learning purposes and don’t have to be dressed like they are going to be in a magazine. Well, it turns out when it is YOUR kid, it kinda does matter. And I WAS worrying about what she was going to wear. All of these items were things we already had… a skirt from the GAP that I got last summer on clearance for $6, a shirt from big sister’s closet, t-shirt from Target (also last summer) and flats from Walmart. Tah-Dah!

I love that girl…

Also… have I ever mentioned my addiction to etsy.com? Look what the mailman brought me today…. Can’t wait to use them!

One more thing… I recently added a bunch of new links to the “links” tab at the top of the blog… so make sure to check them out!

So… you have a spring session coming up and don’t have a clue what the kids SHOULD wear? Well, lucky for you, I’ve also put together a collection of clothing “DO’s”. These items can be found at places like mini-boden, gap kids, crewcuts, old navy, and etsy.com.

And this dress… ahhhhh this lovely sunny perfectly yellow dress! I have fallen head-over-heals in love with this dress.

How much do I love this dress? How much am I dying to photograph a little girl on a glowy summer evening wearing this very dress? I love it so much that I am going to offer a FREE children’s session to the first person that gives me proof that they have purchased this dress (and have a child to go along with it) and wish to have said child photographed in said dress. Yep. I LOVE that dress.

You can find it at crewcuts, J.Crew’s kids clothing line, or just click here and order away!

My absolute favorite choice for children is J.Crew’s line, “crewcuts”.

Other favorites of mine…

Mini-Boden for babies and kids

Target.com has a brand called “Infant Morfs” that has the cutest tees for babies and toddlers…

Fawn+Forest for super-cool modern and organic children’s clothing…

And… I found the most adorable onsies, diaper covers and dresses on etsy.com from Vintage Lucy’s.

Happy Shopping!
