handmade wardrobe // pink plaid

I've been slacking with the blog lately. I posted this outfit to instagram last week, but never got around to posting it here. Whoops. 

Anyways, I was pleasantly surprised with this pattern. I'm all for off the shoulder looks (obvs), but something seemed a little odd about this one. It actually turned out better than expected, and I definitely think it will get a lot of wear in this last half of summer.

handmade wardrobe // porcelain

I actually originally bought this double gauze fabric to make something for baby. But then I became really attached to the beautiful print and just had to make into something for myself. Sorry, Penny.

Match Your Mama

This subtle tropical print french terry fabric arrived a few days before we left for Maui, and I threw these matching outfits together last minute to add to our suitcase. Like, literally last minute. Unfinished hemlines and uneven shorts and all. Whoops. (The unfinished hem I'm keeping, the uneven pant legs I'll fix). But it was worth it. Because isn't wearing matching themed outfits the whole point of taking your kids on vacation with you? :)

handmade wardrobe // floral denim

I've been busy working on baby clothes for miss Penny, and its been awhile since I've made anything for myself. So I figured there was no better way to jump back in, than with floral denim paper bag waist culotte overalls. Obviously. (pattern deets listed below).

Spring in February

Happy March! I don't know about where you live, but we had some ah-mazing weather this past week. We took advantage of the warm February temps and headed into Boston to spend the day exploring the North End (our favorite!). Of course we ended up at a playground to keep a certain little someone occupied since she was skipping a nap. And guys! She walked with a walker for the first time! She also loved looking at the water, enchanting every single person that walked past us, and then passed out hard on the way home. I can't wait for this weather to come back and stay so we can have so many more days like this.
