peyton's closet | spring

I soooooo wish I could dress like my little Pixie Pie. See, the thing about being an adult is, you kind of have to stick to a general style.

But a three year old... Well, a three year old can wear anything and somehow it works.

Some days she looks like she's about to board the Nantucket Ferry...

{Shirt | Shorts (old Crewcuts)}

And the next day...like she's going to meet some girlfriends in the Village: 

{Arrow Shirt | Moccasins}

Shirt: Gap | Hat: Crewcuts | Shoes: Target

When Peyton was a baby, my favorite places to buy clothes were MiniBoden, Ralph Lauren, and Gap. Now that she's getting older (but not necessarily much bigger- at three and a half and 26 pounds, she's still wearing many of her 12-Month clothes...) I'm loving H&M and Zara (for clothes in general), Pink Chicken and Tea (for dresses), Etsy (for unique t-shirts, leggings and headbands)... and for basics, like jeans and plain shirts, I love thrift shops like ThredUP and Once Upon a Child.

At this point, Peyton still lets me pick out her clothes {most of the time}. Once she starts putting up more of a fight, I'm pretty sure it's going to be dinosaur tees and tutus from there on out (she's a bit conflicted at the moment about whether she's a tomboy or a girly-girl...):

In heels, no less!

These are some of the outfits that have come out of P's closet lately:

On her way to Nursery School, studious-like.
{Headband | Shirt | Arrow Leggings | Shoes}

Playing Dress-Up Dolls with Daddy
{Shirt | Leggings}

Being Peyton-ish on the streets of New York City
{Leggings, Shirt, & Jacket: all Gap (old)}

An outfit that P picked out herself... (Love the mixing of dots, arrows, and cheetah...)
{Sash-tie sweatshirt (old CrewCuts) | Arrow leggings}

Playing in the grass:
{Leggings: Old Navy (old) | Shirt}

Waiting for Ollie's bus to drop him off
{Shirt & Leggings: Gap (old) |  Sweater: Boden(old) | Hat: Crewcuts (old, similar here)}

Helping me test out my lighting kit that I can't seem to figure out.
{Dress: H&M | Shirt & leggings: Gap (old)}

As for me, I pretty much stick to the same jeans and white tee-shirt look everyday (maybe a scarf, if I'm feeling a bit daring), but I'm thinking of trying out something new and exciting every once and a while. And if people seem to be looking at me funny, I'll just tell them that my mom made me wear it.
