Spring Wardrobe

It's supposed to be in the seventies all week- just in time for Clio to sport many of the gifts you forward-thinking people gave us when she was born: summer separates in 18m - 2y size! It has been lots of fun to do the season-and-size changeover, pulling all these little treasures out of storage, and to remember receiving some of these clothes back when Clio was a tiny little thing and it seemed inconceivable that she'd ever grow into them.


Here, Clio sports a stamped T-shirt she "made" at Day Care, an authentic Levi's denim jacket from Nonny, a stripes-and-flowers skirt from Owen and Laila's Nona (who chose it in tribute to my own habit of crazily mixing patterns when I was Clio's age (and Owen and Laila's mom, Lizzie, was wearing perfect overalls and had ribbons tied at the ends of her braids)), and her new prized possessions: mary-jane crocs and 50s-inspired sunglasses, both of which she picked out herself at The Children's Place. When we showed up at Day Care with Clio in sunglasses, plus a hood pulled up against the spring wind, Titi Miriam and Titi Millie called her a movie star.

Indeed.
