Easter Dresses~For Girls
As long as I can remember, shopping for an Easter dress was so exciting! It meant the beginning of sundresses and pretty colors. My mom, Gram'ma, and I would go shopping, usually to Chocolate Soup at Phipps in Atlanta, and find the perfect Easter dress, and I always had a hat to match!
I've learned finding the perfect Easter dress is not just about the dress, but about the memories that surround finding that perfect dress. I think for me, recreating that for my girls is sometimes hard in this age of online shopping, but it actually can be done. One thing we did back at Christmas when looking for Christmas dresses, I ordered a few with Caroline's input shopping online. When they all came in, we turned on music and had a fashion show for Matthew so the girls could decide which one they loved the most! Another thing, since my parents live a couple hours away, mom will bring a shopping bag here (usually Lilly Pulitzer because that's her favorite) and the girls will have a try on / blogger session (which basically means making hilarious poses in front of the floor length mirror ..... there is no point in taking ourselves too seriously, am I right?!?) This is also a super fun way of turning finding dresses online fun and special! The girls don't have to have the same experience I did when looking for that special Easter dress, but I want the process to be fun and something they'll remember! See what you think about our Easter dress round up! XOXO
1. This has been one of my favorite dresses for Sarah! She wore it a couple of times in Sea Island over spring break and it photographs so well, it would absolutely be perfect for Easter egg hunts!
2. Both of the girls have this classic white sweater. It is well made and only $38.00!
3. This dress is such a cute style for Easter AND your next beach trip. They brought this style back this year and I'm ordering it in a few new colors for the girls. Order fast because it is 40% off with code "refresh."
4. Ahhh....I"m always a sucker for gingham AND yellow!! How cute is this sundress? The tie back on this one is precious too! It can also be found here.
5. You can't look at this happy dress without smiling! The girls wore this one spring break too and got so many compliments! I love the bright lemon print mixed with little girl style. This one is on sale for a just a little longer for spring.
6. My girls, especially Sarah, are obsessed with purses! I think the Easter bunny may have to bring this one to the girls to carry to church.
7. I love a sweet little Peter Pan collar and this dress is as sweet as the come, not to mention....how cute is the scallop bottom of the dress?!
8. This blue and white is another classic from Holly Hastie. Can you tell I love everything she designs and the quality is amazing!
9. This dress is one of my all time favorite children's brands (I may be partial since they are located on St. Simons Island), but it truly is the definition of timeless style. I love that my favorite children's shop in Chattanooga always has a great selection of Bailey Boys.
10. I love a classic bishop dress and the soft pastel hues of this one are perfect for Easter pictures and coordinating with family.
11. I can't say enough about this sweet dress brand out of London, not to mention the designer, Holly herself is one of the nicest people to talk to. I love everything about these special dresses by Holly and this stripe one is one of my favorites! This one is on sale right now too!
12. How gorgeous is this white Swiss dot dress? This is such a simple Easter dress that lets the beauty of your daughter shine or would be a perfect beach picture this summer.
