Holiday Weekend Wear...

When you live in Southern California, everyday feels like a holiday with the warm weather and abundance of sunshine. It's a glorious Holiday weekend, so why not take a road trip to our own local Riviera, also known as Santa Barbara. I know my adventurous spirit comes directly from my momma... as well as my baby fashion sense. Looking stylish yet staying cool, in Santa Barbara is a must!

My mom was brave enough to allow me to wear my pretty white eyelet button-down top. (This may end up being a one-time appearance when I'm through with it.) The boat neckline, cap sleeves and A-line cut is a perfect look for any Riviera, or beach party. I've paired it with my navy, light cotton capris that are embroired in dainty white stitching. A winning combo if  you ask me. My denim ballet flats with cute flower details and a red and white headband complete this festive ensemble. It is possible to be patriotic and still oh so chic.

Thanking all those that serve our Country, especially my very own Uncle David. See you soon, CC

Polo Match Days....

When your social calendar is full of events that call for casual yet sophisticated apparel, a polo outfit is the perfect choice. The statement says I'm an All-American girl who loves her fashion. This is multi-purpose outfit that works for the park, a stop at Menchie's for frozen yogurt, a shopping trip, or a Polo Match. Life is good in the toddler fashion world.

I'm wearing a beige Polo shirt-dress. The multi-colored buttons detailing the front give it a cutesy look, while the collared neck looks polished. A skinny belt on the waistline gives the dress some contouring. Let's finish it off with a pink and white striped sun hat and embellished pink thongs. So girly and stylish. Excuse me, my agent is calling.

Little Miss Sunshine...

Life in Southern Cali is all about sunshine. It's the ideal locale for my (mostly) sunny mood. The warm air is telling me it's summer, which calls for something light and cheery for story-time at the library today. Not many girls can pull off an all yellow ensemble and still look chic. Wink, wink.

This is a lemony hued eyelet dress with frilly cap-sleeves. The embroired empire waistline, detailed in pink ribbons gives an ultra feminine touch. Being the modest gal I am, I'm wearing pale yellow bloomers underneath. Embellished pink thong sandals and pink headband add a slight contrast without distracting from my pretty baby girl look. Must not forget the yellow sunshine glasses to protect my peepers.

I say go bananas and wear yellow. Sunshine lover, CC

Back in Black ... and white

Hi loyal readers of CC's blog. I'm very sorry for my hiatus. However, we had a big move to the West Coast and my mommy was busy with packing, moving and unpacking. Now that we are settled nicely in our new home and new town, I'm re-entering the toddler fashion scene with a whole new season of adorable summer fashion. My absolutely favorite season of apparel.

I'm starting off with an Island style look. Very simple yet oh so chic. A black and white print sundress is timeless and with the hibiscus flower print, it makes me feel like I'm lounging in a tropical paradise. A simple pairing of a pink flower headband is the perfect accessory, and my favorite thong sandals give just the right Island girl look.

I'm so loving this Cali sunshine. Much luv, CC

Easter Bunny's Best...

I hope everybunny had a fabulous Easter. I surely did. As I say, life is like an Easter basket, sweet and full of surprises. Best of all, it's a holiday when you are "required" to wear a fancy new outfit. Um, new clothes, candy, toys AND spring weather? That tops the list of favorite holidays for me. However, I might be changing my tune at Christmas time this year in California.

This special occassion called for a dress that was pretty, dainty, and not pink. After some shopping, I found this pretty white eyelet dress,  detailed with fabric flowers that adds just a touch of pink, pink straps and an empire waist. A darling white knit cardigan, lacy white socks and white shoes keeps the look monochromatic and the focus on the details of the dress. A soft pink flower headband is perfect for this doll baby look. ... On my big brother, you'll see him in a comfortable look of a striped long-sleeve polo and easy fit, distressed jeans.

Next up, summer at the beach. Bye Bye bunny, CC

So Minnie....

Today I'm deriving all my inspiration from one of my favorite fashion icons, Minnie Mouse. Show me a 1 year old girl who isn't fascinated by the cute and sweet Minnie, and I'll show you a pig that can actually fly. It must be her signature style of pink, polka dots and bows, oh my!

Starting with my adorable poppy pink tank dress, adorned with a silky white bow on the empire waistline, and white polka dots just screams "Disneyland here I come". Layered over a pair of slate gray leggings and under a smokey gray knit cardigan, keeps the look from getting too whimsical. A pair of dainty white ballet flats are a perfect match. Let's not forget the signature hair bow - mine is a bright pink and white flower clipped on a white headband. Too cute for words.

Paint the Town...

I'm back and I'm painting the town red! I've been on hiatus due to travels and packing. Yes, we are finally heading West soon, and I can already feel the sand on my toes and the sun on my face. Ahh! So before I go, I have some loose ends to tie up here, such as leaving my style mark on Ol' Milwaukee. As I always say, "go bold or go home."

For just this occasion, I picked out my most daring red ensemble. Who wouldn't shine in a cherry red long sleeve tee with sparkly bling on the front? I've paired it with my darling red knit leggings belled in frilly red tulle ankles. My velvet red ballet flats give just the perfect feminine touch. Let's not forget accessories - cream headband with a clip-on red bow brings it all together. I'm sure to be the shining star of the playgroup.

"I'm leavin, on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again." Bye for now, CC
