the girl’s got style!

Believe it or not, I do buy fabric that has already been cut up and sewn into stuff … such as shirts, dresses, and jeans. I LOVE jeans and would wear them every day if I could, especially if they were as CUTE as these embroidered jeans Annika is showing off here (at right).

I actually bought these jeans at The Children’s Place years ago, when Annika was just a baby. They were too adorable to pass up. (and a great deal on the price, too!) They’ve got little flowers embroidered down the legs in pink, green, and metallic thread. I can’t believe she’s already wearing them!

Although you won’t find Annika’s jeans in stores or online today, check out these adorable embellished skinny jeans in white. With metallic embroidery, appliqu

és, rhinestones, and sequins, what more could a girl wish for? Except maybe that The Children’s Place would make them in a size 18 or 20. Then I might have a chance of fitting in them too!

And speaking of fitting, the clothes at The Children’s Place have those marvelous adjustable waistbands, which make for a great fit all the time. Adjustable waistbands for kids’ clothing … that is just about the best thing invented since sliced bread.

The cute hat did come as a ball of yarn, but I did not crochet it. A very good friend of mine from Korea made it for me.

  1. Adjustable waistbands are the greatest invention! My children are so skinny that by the time they fit into non adjustable pants width wise, lengthwise the pants are too short!

  2. We love the adjustable waists, too. My little girl has chunky thighs, and the waists are always too big. I cinch them in tight at the top; I would have to have her booty sticking out. :)

  3. Hi,
