Adelaide’s First Birthday Party

Expanding my line into dressier dresses meant that I got to be a part of people’s special occasions and most important events. Having celebrated a first birthday in my house not that long ago — though it feels like a lifetime now — I know how important that first birthday party dress is. I was honored to make this gorgeous pink & gold tulle number for little miss Adelaide, who has to be one of the most gorgeous children I’ve ever seen. We modeled this dress after the original creation of one of my other customers, Jennifer (more on her later!), and we call it the Livie after Jennifer’s beautiful little girl.

Sarah, Adelaide’s mom, has become someone I’d consider a friend through this process. Not only is she creative and easy to work with, but I think she’s that way because she too is a shop owner. If you’re a fan of shopping small and handmade, you’re going to LOVE her collection of rad rompers, tees and more. She focuses on giving your old favorites (like cool cotton t-shirts) new life for your little ones.  Visit her at The Upcycled Panda.
