Transeasonal Tike

I find dressing pre season tough work. You've been bare foot, draped in light weight clothing all summer, then September comes and you want to wear all your new gear but although mornings may be chilly it soon heats up and your sweltering. somehow chunky knits and capes don't feel right yet, so It always takes me longer to get dressed at this time of year. For mini that just means more layering. Her long sleeve t shirts worn under summer dresses or her Stella for Gap leggings and a light weight cardi do the trick. Today mini is flexing a little colour with her cobalt linen dress from Bonton, burnt orange ribbed cardi, her new Cos beads and her brand spanking new converse double Tongue trainers courtesy of cousin cherry and Miri. We love that they come with a choice of two coloured laces but the apple green are definitely our fave.

Later in the day Mini changed for little Alices 5th birthday bash. And in her honour (well sort of) she wore her older sister grace's peach sorbet Bonpoint party dress with super size bow. Delicious.
