DIY Baby Clothes

Aloha Sprinklerinos,

Not too long ago, on a warm summer day, I was asked if I had a PO Box to send Darcy some bits and bobs to. As it happens I do, and a few weeks later when I went to collect my treasure (I pick it up about once every six weeks), I was greeted with some lovely goodies from Modified Fashion. 

At the moment they don't have a website but there is quite a lot of information on their Twitter account.

I am always impressed when people take something ordinary and make it special so it was lovely to see this done with tiny baby clothes. I have actually been thinking about customising a few of my own clothes so these pieces have been quite an inspiration to get crackalacking. 

Modified Fashion also gifted me a few other items but these were my absolute favourites. They would be lovely for your own bambinos but also I think they'd make a sweet gift for Mamas-To-Be or birthday presents. I'm always looking for something a little unusual. 

So from Baby Glitter and I, thank you very much modified fashion, we look forward to seeing your business grow. 

Toodlepip!

Aloha Sprinklerinos,

Since I haven't done an Baby OOTD since THIS ONE in February, I thought it was about time I did another. I tell you what though, making a toddler stand still for long enough to focus your camera is about as easy as solving a problem like Maria (hope you get that Sound of Music fans). In summary, photographing a tot is hard! I'm obviously not going to force her to do it so we're gonna work with what we've got.

This photograph was taken at Easter outside our church and is what she wore to the service. We don't always dress up too fancy but since it was a special occasion (good old Jesus rising again etc- don't go mad at me for having a religious moment please), we made an effort.

I tend to steer Baby Glitter's wardrobe towards pastels because I think they suit her and she's such a little girlie girl that she is happy to wear them. Oooohhh ggaawwdddd I love dressing that kid!

As you can see, all of Darcy's clothes are from highstreet stores (except the gift) and I think they look amazing. If you have the money and you want to go designer then yay, but for us, we love a good bargain! We look in stores, supermarkets, charity shops, consignment fairs and boot sales for clothes and often find absolute gems. 

I will do more of these Baby Style posts as and when the kidling permits me to get a good shot of her. 

Where do you shop for children's clothes? Do you secretly wish you could wear that cardigan too? I know I do!

Baby Glitter Haul

Aloha Sprinklerinos,

Since you all loved my new Baby Style post, I went kerazy and made a full length video featuring all the lovely pieces I have bought Baby Glitter for the Spring/Summer season.

If you are on the ball in YouTube world then you may well have seen it, but if not, here it is for your viewing pleasure- oh la la. 

Hopefully I can get a few nice shots of her wearing some of the clothes and if I do, I'll be sure to blog about them!

Baby Style || Spy Mac and Studs

Aloha Sprinklerinos, 

Last week Matt and I had a mooch round Milton Keynes to fill a few hours and I picked up a couple of bits of Baby Glitter that I simply couldn't not share. 

I buy her so many nice things (naughty Mummy), that I have decided to try and do a few of these Baby Style posts over the next few months. The real challenge is getting her to stand still for a moment!!

Baby Style

Rustic Flower Clips :: Accessorize Angels 

Purchased years ago

Beige Mackintosh :: Zara Baby 

£22.99

Indigo Jeggings :: Primark 

£4

Studded Tan Plimsoll :: Zara Baby 

£17.99

What I love most about this outfit is the tiny bows on the sleeves of the coat. I have a jacket very similar and think the little bows give the item a more babylike feel to it, which is nice. I bought it a wee bit big because Baby Glitter grows like a sunflower and I'd like her to enjoy it for as long as possible. The lining inside is light blue quilting. 

The jeggings are also great. I have bought the same pair (but smaller) in the past and Darcy finds them comfortable and easy to play in. Now that she is so active, I really want her to not be in the least bit restricted by her clothes. Tots need to be free!

If this is a feature you'd like to see on a more regular basis, I'll be sure to take close up photographs of the garments too so you can get a real feel for them. 

Where is your favourite place to buy little people clothes? Do you half wish you could fit in an 18-24 months just so you could wear that coat? I think I do!
