Petite Parade Fashion Show at Children’s Club

January 13, 2017

There we are to the left, sitting next to the runway. I marvel at how I’m living my dream being able to take my daughter to these fashion shows. As a little girl, I remember watching runway shows on TV wishing that I could one day see one live! And here I am having not only attended hundreds of shows in my lifetime, but also sitting front row with my toddler in tow letting her watch the lineup before her very own eyes.

And I can’t get over how much she enjoys them so! Here she is doing her own sassy pre-show catwalk and dance. (Where did she learn these moves???)

As always, she had to have her own turn on the runway. So when I saw other moms post-show put their babies up on stage for a photo or two, I obliged mine. And course, she didn’t want to ever get down from there. .

As you can see from the runway finale recap, there were so many fantastic looks on the Children’s Club Petite Parade runway! And for me, the accessories really made some of the looks! Like check out this furry, royal crown and leopard oxfords on this handsome boy below. Such a standout! The crown is from Oh Baby!

Sometimes the socks stole the show!

Speaking of socks, don’t you just love how this bowtie below matched the socks?

I’m a sucker for girls in bowties.

I loved this mini model and her sword. Now that’s a killer accessory!

She’s like an exotic warrior princess!

Juliet and I pointed out how so many of the kids wore those lace-up military style boots (which Juliet also owns). Ooh how on-trend we were!

And check out this one’s mod look. I love the mismatched socks, (too cute!) and that CROWN and dress!! AHH kids’ fashion has me like !!!

Here’s another sophisticated, modern look that proves that girls don’t have to just wear pink and purple to look fabulous!

I’m totally planning to steal this camo+ black tutu + graphic black/white tee shirt outfit idea below!

And my favorite looks of the night…

I can’t. I just can’t.

Which of these were your favorites?? For some more of our past coverage of Petite Parade’s kids fashion shows click here!

‘Til next time!

2016 Year In Review – Holiday Parties

January 9, 2017
Celebrating , Decor , Holidays , Tablescapes

To help create special moments for my family, I enjoy celebrating each holiday and marking the passage of time with mini celebrations. I host themed play dates for Juliet, play dress up, produce photo shoots in holiday colors, bake themed desserts with my little one and have fun re-decorating the dining area with her. Here’s my 2016 year in review showing how just one small area of a NYC apartment came to life each season.

For all the details from this adorable, “Wild For You” themed Valentine’s PJs and Pancakes play date, click here!

The girls played with their furry stuffed animals, sprinkled toppings on heart-shaped pancakes and brunched like little ladies while wearing their matching animal PJs. It was so much fun that I hosted another Wild For You play date during Valentine’s with a slightly different setup. For this posh play date we decorated heart-shaped Valentine cookies and wore heart printed sweatsuits. Click through for all the details and tips on how to create your own!

For her birthday at the end of February, I turned our dining area into a Mickey Minnie black and white themed space since our Disney kid was clubhouse crazy!

Click here for all the budget-friendly details! The next month, I hosted a princess themed play date featuring a Beauty and the Beast screening, ballroom dancing, and mommy and me manicures. With free printables, I transformed the buffet area to a blue and pink sparkle and sweet station. Click here for more!

I’ve never been one to celebrate the fourth of July with such enthusiasm until recently. Decorating my home in red white and blue has become a tradition ever since having a little one. I want to celebrate every holiday with her in a fun, stylish and meaningful way. Besides being festive, holiday decor is a talking point from which teachable moments can spring forth. My little one learned about the American flag, identified stars and stripes, and practiced color memory with these visual aids as a baby. Nowadays she likes and insists on getting involved with the decorating!

During my birthday month (Sept.) I used some remaining party decor to make the place feel festive. Hubby agreed to cook me his first dinner ever as part of my present. What better entertainment on my birthday than to watch him try and figure his way around the kitchen I thought? Juliet and I set the table with all our Oh Joy for Target items leftover from last year while daddy fumbled through the Hello Fresh kit with all the dinner ingredients. Below was the end result!

I opted out of hosting a Halloween bash this year and instead hosted some close friends over for a crafty trick or treat pre-party. Here’s our dining area transformed once again with a damask shower curtain and homemade banners on the wall.

And for a simple and comparatively minimalistic Thanksgiving scene, I cleared out the dramatic Halloween decor and re-purposed items around the house for a totally different look. Using fall favorites such as white pumpkins and apples, I created an elegant scene with pure white with silver accents.

Then I held a posh play date sponsored by 7 or 8 brands under the theme, “sprinkle some fun” which you can see here and got to re-use the backdrop from Juliet’s bunny birthday party as well as the princess party.

These are some of my favorite looks using whatever I had around the house, gift wrap, shower curatains, re-purposed party decor. I hope this inspires you to change it up every once in a while and give your home a fun festive look for your favorite holidays in 2017!

Happy new year!
