Gymboree Gymbucks just burn a hole in my pocket every time. I had three from a recent purchase so used them to get this little box of goodies for my girls. I like to order online so I can really think about things and maximize my discount (the deal is: Spend $50, earn a $25 Gymbuck to be redeemed later on another $50 purchase)... so with three Gymbucks ($75), if I keep my next total purchase as close as possible to $150 it makes my discount 50%. Yay, hooray!
You will understand how truly crazy I am when I explain this outfit:
We are taking the children to Europe this summer for their first time and I am already planning their wardrobes. OK, I admitted it. I also have a Polyvore in the works for myself. This pink and dotty outfit is for "Day 1: Lengthy Plane Ride to Copenhagen":
A comfortable tank, cardigan if they get chilly; the dotty skirt is so they look nice going through the airports, the dotty leggings for comfy snoozing or to change into in case of a spill. Matching knit headband for Big Sis, chiffon ribbons for Lil Sis. Dressing alike and in bright colors makes them easier to keep track of too, imo! Little brother will have a turquoise polo the color of the turquoise dot. I will not go through the entire two weeks of clothing changes right now... but don't be surprised if they might possibly come up between now and then...
I also ordered these sweet smocked dresses... I love a floaty dress with smocking for little girls... my 5 yr old likes to wear leggings so I got some coordinating ones to wear under. I still remember a couple years ago when we were in Hawaii and I had bought her all these capris etc (of course... it's warm there) and she sat down and covered her ankles and wouldn't move because her ankles were cold. In the middle of a hot, sunny day. In Hawaii. I think she's gotten past that... but just in case...
Cute outfits! We did a little gymbo shopping this weekend too. My dd is 5 as well and refuses to wear pants with zippers or buttons, so it is all gymbo leggings for her
ReplyDeleteI love it that you're planning your girl's outfits for Europe. That's so fun!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE boxes fill with pink. :) Xoxo-BLC
ReplyDeleteCute outfits-------wish i had a little girl to dress in pink and green! It's so exciting to find cute little outfits for our children, isn't it??!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I just LOVE Copenhagen! What a fabulous city. I'm sure your kids will love it, too! There's so much for them to do there. And, I love the outfits, and I imagine when I have kids, I will do the same thing. :)
ReplyDeleteI love both the dotty set (I almost bought the pants for my little one when they came out but preferred to wait until it's actually warmer for the sizing) and the smokey dress. What a clever idea to dress them in bright colors to keep track of them in the airport! I must remember that for my next trip.
ReplyDeleteWhen are you going? Having lived for 8 years in Paris, I have some advice to give weatherwise. Bring a heavy windbreaker, socks and a cashmere sweater, it can get really cold in Paris in the summer! We went back last year in August with my daughter and she lived in her Gap jeans and jacket (I had tons of little dresses that stayed in the suitcase until we arrived in Milan where my parents live.)
Have fun!
Thank you everyone! It is fun dressing them!
ReplyDeleteEma - we will be in Paris in early July. I appreciate your dressing advice! I have probably been buying them too much in the way of summery clothes. I haven't been there since before they were born. I will make sure to add in some warmer clothes too. I know that Denmark will not be super warm and that is where we are spending most of out time.
Such cute clothes!!! And very smart about the dressing in bright colors so they are easy to find - very very smart!
ReplyDeleteSo cute. I love the peach smock dress.
ReplyDeletethose are adorable! i cannot wait until i have kids to dress. :D kids clothes are so cute!
ReplyDeletethank you burntphotograph! It is soooo fun to dress your little ones... especially before they start getting opinionated! I briefly had a little website selling baby/girls clothing - beautiful things from South Africa and brands you'd find at Nordstrom - oh, it was soooo fun (but expensive!)
