Happy First Birthday, Lilly

Today my baby girl turns one.  Where did the time go?!  This past year has been filled with the happiest moments of my life.  Lilly, you brighten every day for me.  I'm the luckiest Momma in the world. 

At just ten days old you already meant the world to me.  I was overwhelmed, scared, and on cloud nine.  I still am all of these things, but I now know we can get through anything together.  I look forward to each and every day with you, and love you more than you could ever even imagine.

I thought you might like to see some of the photos from Lilly's one year photoshoot with our beloved photographer, Gray Benko.  We chose the fair as the backdrop for our little charmer.

Happy first birthday, Lilly.

Lilly is wearing a Zara dress, All Saints cardigan, and Old Navy boots.

Leg Warmers For Ladies

So, I've covered that Lilly rocks leg warmers.  I've yet to wear them myself.  This look, however, really makes me want to start.

Who's with me?

The leg warmers shown in the above image are Rag & Bone.  I also like these lacy leg warmers. 

The etsy seller made Lilly a baby version of these back in January.  To say they're adorable just wouldn't do justice...



Wow.  Was she ever that small?  Luckily, they still fit her.  Maybe I should get a matching pair?  Wink wink.  Okay, I wouldn't do that to her (or myself).  But I just might need to find my own pair of leg warmers...

Weekend Greetings

Have you all had a nice weekend?  I've enjoyed mine (still am).  It's been filled with a design walk, oyster roast, an oktoberfest party, and lots of family time. 
Lilly was feeling the fall love at oktoberfest, and I want to share her outfit with you all.  She was quite the partier.

dress- american apparel, cardigan- american apparel, scarf- zara, jeans- gap, shoes- old navy.

 

Beez Kneez

When Jamie of Beez Kneez contacted me about leg warmers for Lilly, she had no idea what she was getting herself into!  Lilly LOVES leg warmers (and so does her Momma).  Not only are they the perfect accessory, but they protect tiny legs and knees while crawling about.  Lilly wears leg warmers with dresses and skirts, over skinny pants and tucked into boots, and even as baby sleeves! 

Check out how Lilly wore her stylish chevron pair in one of this season's hottest colors- purple!

Jamie has a ton of different patterns of leg warmers in her shop.  Better yet, most all of them are priced at $8, so you can get a few pairs.  You can also join the Beez Kneez Facebook Page for sneak peaks and special discounts.

Thanks so much for helping Lilly stay up with the trends, Jamie.  We luv your shop.
