With the holidays approaching it got me thinking - do you dress your little princesses up for Thanksgiving?
I know a lot of you out there dress your daughter's up for Christmas but is Turkey Day the same? I come from a huge family where we have incredibly huge Thanksgiving Day Brunches but quite honestly I've never noticed how everyone is dressed.
Im thinking mainly comfort for my little angel but then again she will only be 7 months... But at the same time she will be doing outfit changes galore on Christmas :)
By the way - Make sure to checkout my Thanksgiving free tutu giveaway on my facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/Adalynsboutique
So let me know. Do you and yours get all glitzy for Turkey Day?

What Is It About Vintage Clothing
What Is It About Vintage Clothing?
I absolutely adore the vintage look, the clothing, the old suitcases, cars, trucks... I love it all. I think one fascination with vintage clothing is chances are, no one else will have the same item. It also seems like merchandise was just made better in the past too. There are many different vintage eras too. Makes me laugh to think some consider 80's and 90's clothing vintage... boy, where have the years gone.
The most notable years for me started in the 1920's. Fashion designers responded by dropping waists to high hip levels and instead of fitted dresses, they started to become loosely hung. The trend definitely went towards being more simple. The in look was to just gather some of the fabric and pin it to the side. This decade is also when you started seeing ankles peek out of dresses. The 20's was also popular for the flapper era.
Through the 30's the waist line came back but by no means was it accentuated. Hemlines hung around mid calf and puffy sleeves was in. Floral was a very popular print.
The 40's were all about tailoring. The ruffles and shirs were gone and replaced by gathering of fabric. Sleeves started to become more slim fitting and skirts flared out and the hemline rose to right around knee level.
The 50's embraced a whole new style. The slim fitting waist and poufy skirts were still in and fancier then ever but the pencil skirts also became very popular. This decade also saw a lot of silhouette enhancers like the waist cinchers, bullet bras, and girdles. The full curvaceous look was definitely in and so was the hourglass figure.
Jackie Kennedy had a huge part in the 60's fashion statement era. She made the French couture style known in the U.S. With Jackie, Brigitte Bardot and Twiggy all as fashion icons, this helped inspire women to try new styles. Big hair, bold colors and shapes were in. High necklines were popular and sleeves remained short or to about elbow length.
The 70's, which is my favorite clothing era, became known as the hippie era or bohemian era. The mini skirt became popular. Psychedelic print was also very popular.
Wikipedia's Definition:
Generally speaking, clothing which was produced before the 1920s is referred to as antique clothing and clothing from the 1920s to 20 years before the present day is considered vintage.[citation needed] Retro, short for retrospective, or "vintage style" usually refers to clothing that imitates the style of a previous era. Reproduction, or repro, clothing is a newly-made, copy of an older garment. Clothing produced more recently is usually called modern or contemporary fashion. Opinions vary on these definitions.

Picking a name for your baby isn’t limited to her first name; one way to choose her last name is by hyphenating the last names of the mother and father.

Whatever method you use to choose your baby girl’s name, the idea is to form a lasting and memorable bond between your baby and her loving new family.

Tutus, Tutus & You Guessed It More Tutus :)
From One Of Princess Adalyn's Customers / Blog Writer - Erin
As the mother of a seven year old daughter, you would think that I would have long ago jumped on the tutu bandwagon. I see all of these adorable little girls (and some not-so-little girls) wearing these equally adorable tutus EVERYWHERE! At the grocery store, restaurants, the rodeo, I even saw one at the public swimming pool last month!
For me, it’s a matter of availability. I live in the middle of nowhere. Trying to find anything pertaining to the latest fashion trend means driving 100 miles. I guess I’m going to have to suck it up though because I’m expecting another little girl in two months! I want her to have more of the ‘girly’ clothes in her closet than I allowed her sister to wear. Wow, that sounds terrible! Now, my main concern is finding a quality product, since Wal-Mart isn’t exactly my thing. I’ve been asking friends who have little girls and I think I have it narrowed down to a couple of local, independent businesses. I just need to pour my pregnant butt behind the wheel of my car and take a drive!
