I'm picky and choosy when it comes to clothes for my 2-year-old daughter. They don't have to be posh and pricey and celebrity-inspired (in fact, I'm happy if they're not any of those things...). My stipulations are seemingly much simpler.
I look for clothes that are:
Picaflor Kids is all of that and more. Headquarted in Portland, Oregon, this company creates elegant knitwear (sizes 6 months - 10 years) in gorgeous colors. The outfits look somewhat dressy, but they're also surprisingly perfect for every day wear.
My daughter wore her julia knit peasant dress all summer long. When given a choice, she'd sort through her drawer and pull it out - perhaps because it was so easy to slide on and off.
Now, she can be seen running around in her abigail dress and matching ruffle pants (pictured). She's being exceptionally silly in that photo, but isn't that color wonderful?
You can purchase Picaflor Kids clothing from a number of brick-and-mortar and online retailers. As far as I can tell, sets go for between $29-44 and individual pieces are in the $26-42 range.
WIN IT! One winner will receive one piece from the Picaflor Kids collection of her choice (won't that be a hard choice?). To enter, leave a comment on this post prior to Wednesday, December 31 at midnight (don’t forget to follow the rules). * Winner must provide a U.S. mailing address.
NOTE: For additional information, please feel free to read my original review, published on 6-7-2008.
*UPDATE* The winner is #3 Belinda A. Congratulations!
