Ever since Little Mama turned 3 years old, she has been more inclined to playing pretend rather than experiencing reality – which is quintessentially a snore fest for her. She would pretend to be a world renowned cook, an organic grocer, a funky princess (naturally), an embittered mermaid, a busy mommy, an exhausted daddy – she pretended […]
From Princess to Paleontologist :: Microfashion for Pretend Play Up and Away Jackets

It’s not that I always wished […]

Naturally, it was all about playing dress up. It’s what we do […]
Alivia Simone Bristol Wool Dress :: A Darling Look for the Dreary Weather #Review #Giveaway
Living on an island, the weather is all over the place. Yesterday, it was remarkably sunny and beautiful. The day before, there was a 90% chance of drizzle, with a 10% chance of everything else. Today – it’s just cold. But not quite cold enough to throw on our puffy jackets. Darn it. We love […]
Little Mama Got a Haircut :: The Timeless Angled Bob #wordlesswednesday #linky
Now that Halloween is over, and daylight savings is in full effect, we figured we would enter the new season with a whole new look. The angled bob. With bangs. This isn’t a new concept for us, as we have been styling little mama’s du in an angled bob for as long as she has […]
The Green Hornet, Fam-o-ween Edition :: Family Halloween Costumes
From the day Little Mama was born – I have always dreamed of coordinating with my little mini-me (rather, Big Daddy‘s mini me). I wasn’t exactly envisioning matching Chanel purses, thigh high suede boots or something amazing… err, I mean, ridiculous like that. But creating some sort of family tradition where we do something worthy of a […]
8 Basic Tips for Back to School Microfashion
We are essentially the last group in the entire universe to start preschool this late into September. But are we worried? Most certainly not. We are as happy as can be. Why?
