Boden

I love Boden for many reasons. The primary reason is that the clothes are wonderfully made and last and last. My children have both worn lots of their clothes and they look as good as the day they were purchased. I like that they do not buy into the child as adult look and most of their clothes are age appropriate. It also doesn't hurt that they have a lot of great colorful clothes that always seem in style. I am pretty sure that the outfits above will find their way into my daughters closet at some point!

Girls Underwear

should look like this...

and not like some of the underwear I have seen in various stores of late. My daughter is 6 and (as far as I am aware) not a whore. Why are we in such a rush to dress them as hookers? Who is buying this crap? I want my daughter to look like the innocent litte girl that she is not a two bit pole dancer. It is beyond frustrating to shop for a little girl now.
Underwear from Boden

speaking of Anthropologie..

I love this coat. Simple with just that little flurry to take it over the edge. Perfect.

This cup

this cup is just perfect to me. Delicate, pretty and ever so slightly different. The real reason I love it though is because it is called the Cardiff cup. I was born in Cardiff, Wales so it makes me really happy. There are also plates and bowl in the design but this teacup needs to come live with me - nowhere near Cardiff!

Back Again!

Took a little break to deal with my son starting kindergarten, my husband going on a little deployment and my daughter starting a new therapy timetable and all day school. Lots of adjusting and time management needed. Now I feel ready to return to my sporadic posting of things I like! Enjoy!
