New Arrival

Bonpoint or Bonton ?
Which of these lovely French fancies do you prefer ? Both are delicious and completely irresistable but do you find yourself more drawn to one than the other ? I find myself buying Bonpoint for the baby but less and less for my five year old. Beautiful as Bonpoint is I think Bonton has more sass and is more current for the older girls. What do you think ?

Flexing My Flexible Little Friend
Sitting up late at night with just the baby and tv for company is a recipe for disaster. It invariably leads to me trawling the internet for clothing sites. Since having children, Bonpoint, Elias & Grace and Little Fashion Gallery amongst others, have become my new best friends. Who would have thought that I could get more joy from children's clothing sites than from Net-a-porter ? Check out my latest acquisitions...yet to arrive.

Spring Looks
It always amazes me how the shops are full of summer clothes at the end of the winter sales in January. It gets me thinking ahead to the summer, not to mention yearning for some sun and inevitably reaching for my wallet! Here are a few looks from Bonpoint that have cheered me up.
To Ebay or not to Ebay ?
I love a bargain which is just as well considering the price of designer clothes. I have recently discovered the joys of Ebay. Yes, I am sure most of you have been there and done that but you really can pick up a bargain. I recently purchased a Bonpoint cardigan and blouse which were in lovely condition. £10 each! Bargain.
I do wonder though if some people do their homework. I have seen some Bonpoint items going for little less than what they sell for in the sale. I'd definitely rather have a brand new item, packaged beautifully from the store than from who knows where. For now I tread lightly and keep an eye out for a gem. They are out there!

This is my big girl pictured outside the Peacock theatre where we went to see The National Ballet perform Prokiev's Cinderella. It was specially choreographed to initiate young children into the delights of ballet. As soon as the curtain went up and she saw the costumes she was hooked. She was on the edge of her seat, completely mesmerised. Lovely.

Spring but not as we know it...

Woodland Creatures

I am so glad that this dress has got another outing. My older daughter wore this first some five years ago. It looks just as good now as it did then. It is by Caramel Baby & Child. It is ideal for this cold Easter as it is lined with the thickest lining I have ever seen on a dress. In fact I have several dresses from the winter range from five years ago and all have a much thicker lining than those made for the current winter collection. Small quibble and the dresses are still fab, but it is nice that this older dress does not need to be worn with a cardigan. Why are things in the past always better ?
Dancing Queen
Today was a momentous day for my eldest girl. She learned to tie her shoelaces! Only five, but she was so determined. Here she is with her new Anniel shoes. They are simply gorgeous and the reason she persevered. I am so proud of her.
