All about the red, white and blue

Kiddo Style: Vintage

 

I’m still in Paris (you can follow my experience on Instagram and Twitter under @MissDottie) but I couldn’t let you go a Monday without some sweet Vintage Kiddo Retro Round Up goodness.

Fourth of July or Bastille Day? Either is a great excuse to get your wee kiddo into a wonderful mix of red, white and blue! So, I rounded up the most patriotic vintage goodies to share with you!

Who says paisley can’t be patriotic? Especially if it is as great as this terrific little shirt! From Etsy seller, Stephanie and Mathias.

I am crazy for this adorable little two piece baby ensemble that I could see being worn beyond the Fourth of July.  From Etsy seller, A Pear’s Vintage Goodies.

 

Wouldn’t it be great to learn the star spangled banner on the accordion–especially this vintage one! From Etsy seller, Volkerwandering.

Sometimes you just want a little bit of the old red, white and blue in your ensemble. Like this wonderful wee vintage barrette! From Etsy seller, Rosebud Cottage, who has quite a few beautiful vintage barrettes available.

Swimming into June

Kiddo Style: Vintage

It is officially beach time! Get out your sand toys and let’s get to swimming.  But of course there are amazing vintage options for your swimming cuties and I spent this weekend finding the best ones out there. Hurrah!

Someone is expecting a baby girl!

Kiddo Style: Vintage, ,

Virginie Jolie, a friend of ours on Instagram who has this dandy Etsy shop, the Happy Apple, let her friends know that she was expecting a girl by posting the sweetest little vintage dressie with an announcement that she was officially on the lookout for vintage dresses for her new little baby GIRL!

I thought I would help her in her search for her newest bundle of joy by dedicating this round up to all things BABY GIRL! Enjoy.

I think this color dress would look so wonderful on a little brunette baby, don’t you think? So sweet! From Etsy seller, Peppermint and Cocoa.

Would you check out this little pink boo boo kitty?  Worth it! From Etsy seller, Storybook Retro.

Normally I’m not a big fan of lace on baby girl dresses, but the bright yellow of this dress is a delicious foil to the lace and works beautifully! From Etsy seller, Ivory Berry.

This sweet little red sweater dress would be perfect over a little onesie, don’t you think? And could later be a little vest as the baby gets older.  From Etsy seller, 3 Ring Circus!

Etsy seller, Hart and Sew knows a thing or two about vintage dresses since she has two darling little girlies! And this little blue duckie one is just perfection. So nice to see blue on girls.

Lucky Miss Lish–she has a perfect model for her baby girl ensembles!  Little Miss Tova looks quite grand in this vintage pink gingham cuteness, don’t you think?

I couldn’t not include this little Health-Tex gem!  Did you see the little lambikins? And the matching bloomers? I know. From Etsy seller, Sweet Shop Vintage.

Can’t you just imagine the sweetness of these little sandals on actually widdle footies!  Insane! From Etsy seller, Electric Pink Vintage.

 

I find little vintage shirts for baby girls/toddlers really hard to find, so when I do find something as jaunty as this sweet candy cane cute stripey top, I definitely wanted to share it with you! From Etsy seller, schatzli.

Happy Monday!

Springy Vintage Finds!

Kiddo Style: Vintage, ,

Hi, hi everyone! I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day!  I did!  It started with a lovely little brunchie with the Peach and ended with homemade cookies and watching Games of Thrones. And a lovely gab with my Mom!  I wanted to do a little hurrah for my own Mom similar to that lovely piece Alix did for her beautiful mama, but alas, I didn’t have any old photos of her. But just you wait!

Anyhoo! I did have some time to find some great vintage goodies to share with you, friends!

I’m beyond in love with this little bicentennial romper. A completely U. S. of Yay piece of vintage! From Etsy seller,
