Happy hump day and day eight of the 12 days of Christmas.  I hope your day is going better than ours.  Lex was sent home from daycare yesterday with a fever and it was a rough night.  She’s got a virus that hopefully we say goodbye to sooner than later so we can get back to all things Christmas and get a decent nights sleep.

Yesterday I showed you a look with a romper from one of our favorite dress brands and today I thought I would share a look with one of their dresses.  Since by now you might be getting tired of traditional red and green, I thought I would switch it up and show a super cute look with navy.  This is so easy and comfortable with just a touch of festive for the holidays making it right up our alley.

I love buying pieces that can do double duty as holiday wear and can be worn long after.  This dress can be paired with practically anything to change the look for any occasion.  Today I kept it super simple with the cutest holiday bow that you can use from one year to the next and the metallic boots that she can wear with practically anything.  If it’s cold where you are or to make a little more christmas-y, a pair of poppy tights would be the perfect addition to this adorable outfit.

Today is day seven of the 12 days of Christmas and an outfit that I just adore.  One of our favorite dress brands came out with a romper line a month or so ago and it’s so cute on!  I love the forest green square print on this romper and knew I needed to include it in our 12 days of Christmas.  As I was putting this look together I was thinking how cute it would be to wear to a Christmas tree farm.

We have an artificial tree but am so in love with all of the pictures coming across my Instagram feed of families and kids picking out their Christmas tree at the tree farm that maybe we will have to check it out next year, even if it’s only to browse.

Happy Monday! I hope you had a nice weekend. We celebrated Lexi’s birthday all weekend long, more on that real soon, but first day six of the 12 days of Christmas.  I’ve been majorly slacking and need to get this finished up!  There’s still so much cuteness to share but Christmas is fast approaching, hard to believe it’s less than 3 weeks away!  tee | hat (check Gap stores, sold out online) | jeans | shoes

Peek kids always has our favorite tee’s for both Dylan and Lex and they didn’t disappoint with this cute reindeer tee for girls.  Be sure to check out the back, I love the deer silhouette.  I wish Peek would have made a boy version of this shirt; I would have had them twinning without a second thought.

This is another easy everyday outfit that both Lex and I love, which is a big deal now that she has an opinion on what she wears.  A cute tee, pull on jeans (perfect for potty training), comfy gold shoes and the cutest red hat.  Grab a comfy sweatshirt or jacket and your little lady is ready for anything all month long.  Wouldn’t this be the cutest for cookie decorating or a preschool party?

Can we talk about these jeans for a second?  I didn’t think I would be all about the elastic waist jeans and never thought I would be singing their praises, that’s for sure.  But they are the best invention ever, or for three year olds anyway!  I’m fully onboard with the pull on denim for Lex this winter.  We have the blue jeans pictured above as well as this black distressed pair.  Since there are no buttons or zippers to mess with, she can wear jeans and use the potty on her own.  Major win in my book.

I’m off to order Christmas cards.  Here’s to hoping they get to their recipient prior to Christmas.  Clearly the 12 days of Christmas isn’t the only thing I am behind on.

It’s day four of the 12 days of Christmas.  If you need to catch up you can see earlier days here:

A month or so ago I saw this dress while browsing the gap website looking for jeans and other staples for Lex for fall and winter and fell in love.  It’s even cuter on than it is in the picture.  It’s perfect for any holiday event without screaming Christmas which means it can be worn all winter long which is a huge plus in my book.  We had the moto boots last year and have them again this year.  They are adorable with dresses and pants alike and held up really well.  Since I like to think Lex will keep a bow on her head for longer than 3.2 seconds, this pigtail set would be the absolute cutest paired with this dress.

P.S. – A little birdie told me the dress from day two will be restocked on December 2nd but be quick, it’s sure to sell out again.
