Let's Not Forget Stitch!

Aloha!

It's just another cold March day here in New York and to warm things up a bit, I just had to share this warm picture featuring a fun and fabulous Lilo & Stich set by the very talented Cherise of Pick-a-Lilys Design Studios

Lilo & Stitch Bottlecap Bows, are made-to-match this 2-piece jeans set by me, Bo*Peeps*Bowtique.

Kayla wore this set during our family vacation to Walt Disney World this past February. It is perfect for a trip to Hawaii, a stay at Disneyland or Disney World, especially Disney's Polynesian Resort, the Lilo & Stitch Ohana Breakfast or the Spirit of Aloha dinner, and more! Kayla just loves this set (and truly, so do I!) and I am certain we will get a lot of use out of it come summer (hurry up, summer!)

I just loved this picture as it captures the joy Kayla has when she puts on this outfit, and what makes it even more fun is the Hibiscus digiframe designed especially to compliment Kayla's set by Kerstin of Fresh-in-Design. http://www.bambinidreams.com/

I've FALL-en Behind, but it's time to SPRING ahead

There' s always so much to do and so little time to do it,
but while the March weather is still being wishy-washy
here in New York and my Spring Fever hasn't gotten a change to really rage, I thought I would attack my "To Do" list.

We were in Disney for Valentine's Day and I haven't updated since then so I'm going to start off with a heart!

This delightful set by Sandy of I_mbornagain is one I've shared before (because it is one of our favorites -- great for Valentine's Day or winter with a fur tee, spring with a tee or summer without) but I didn't get to mention that you can always find it here on Etsy: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20010116

You can just tell that Kayla loved wearing it! And just LOVE that fabric. Great colors, hearts and dots, paired with denim, which I am so partial to!

Basic red bows are by me, Bo*Peeps*Bowtique

Ooh, La La!!

Kayla went crazy for this tres chic Minnie Mouse apron made by Kerstin of Bambinidreams Design / Fresh in Design who ALSO designed the fabulous face page for this blog. Kerstin made this for our Petite Couture Creations "Ooh La La" Launch and I made the "Ooh La La" bow to match. Search "Boutique PCC" to find our listings and get contest information for this launch. One of the prizes is a Minnie Mouse apron like the one pictured here (you can't have ours -- Kayla would not part with it LOL), a pair of Ooh La La bows made by me, Bo*Peeps*Bowtique, and the grand prize -- a boutique jumper with a circus theme, and MORE!

This is the first launch for a wonderful group of designers, please come show your support.
