...And even more Naartjie pics

I got my loot yesterday--it was like Christmas in August! Some of the items I took one look at the color and back in the box it went for returns. But I liked most of it--and in fact am returning some holland flower stuff in favor of the butterflies. I loved the plaid dress, but my favorite, favorite, favorite piece is the woven butterfly top. It is the cutest thing ever!! I ordered it in rosie and butter, liked it so much, ordered it also in flutter, along with the striped pants to go with it.

Opinions on everything requested and welcome please! :)

Flutter plaid dress--love this, was going to send the pants back without trying them because they looked too short but figured what-the-hey. Thank goodness I did because I really like them.

Butter woven top and striped pants. Love this!

Butter knit butterfly dress. Runs big, planning on returning it mainly because I can't keep it all, plus it's the same styling as the Boho dress.

Rosie woven top and Hanna leggings. I just ordered the rosie striped pants yesterday so they're not here yet. Of course, with the leggings, I'm wondering if I even need the striped pants--the Hannas are pretty much a perfect match. What do you think--should I save my money or get them?

Raspberry plaid dress with raspberry essential leggings. This is going back, only because I like the flutter color better.

Oh, I did get some tights but they sent the wrong ones--wrong size and the ones with the butterfly stuck to them, so we didn't really try any on. I think I will only keep the flutter ones for the plaid dress, because they didn't look right with the knit items.

Adorable!!! I *love* her in the flutter dress and pants! TDF! That color is so gorgeous on K. She also looks beautiful in raspberry...glad you've already made the decision because I don't think I could. LOL! I'm really glad you showed the dress in butter because I was mulling it over but I can definitely live without it. It's cute but AG doesn't look as good in yellow as in other colors so it's not for us.

The woven top with the striped pants is spectacular!!! Why, oh why, didn't they get those pants for baby girls?! They look great. The Hanna pants are a perfect match...I think I might save the money and put it on some other piece you want. And I really like that top in rosie. Maybe a consideration for us.

I'm also considering sending back our Holland outfit (the only one we have...pants and top in seawash) and ordering one of the butterfly outfits in seawash instead. Ack...what to do!

Thanks Denise! I figured of all the colors that my choice would be either raspberry or flutter so I ordered them both to see. The flutter definitely wins I think, but if I had the funds, I would keep the rasp. one too. :)

How you feel about the butterfly dress is exactly like I feel--like it's cute but that I can live without it. Plus, I liked the butter color in the woven fabric, but it looked really washed out in the knit, so it's getting returned. If it goes on sale and there are some left, maybe I'll get one, but in another color (probably flutter :))

Thw woven top and striped pants are my fave too. SO CUTE (it's kind of hard to see with the way that K is leaning)! And I think I will save my money and return the rosie ones when they come. I got the Hanna leggings during the MN outlet moving sale for $5 and figured they'd match *something*.

Also, I noticed this when trying on the woven butterfly shirts. If you lift the collar up and look under, it's the exact same plaid from the dress! Kinda nifty--like a sneak peak! :D

OMG Kathleen looks so adorable. The plaid dress and pants look great on her - love the color. The raspberry looks really good on her too.

The woven butter fly top is so cute. Did you get one for Ellen? I order it too and can't wait to get it.

From your picture, the Hanna leggings seems to be a perfect match. I saw them in the catalog and thought some of the Hanna colors would match Naartjie, but I don't think the leggings come in smaller sizes. I really like the Hanna. I'd keep the Hanna leggings and save your $$ and the hassle of ordering.

As always, Kathleen is a wonderful model!!

Thanks Lisa!! You're too sweet! It took me a few tries to get her to be a "wonderful model"--I just didn't post the crying pics! :) LOL

I did get the woven top for Ellen, along with the plaid pants, all in seawash. I figured she'd be a different color than her sister, but now I'm wondering if I should have just gotten it in the flutter too. I'll post pics this weekend when I get her stuff.

What a gorgeous girl you have Maureen! The clothes are nice too! :)

I love the flutter plaid dress and agree the flutter color is much better on her than the raspberry. I would have loved the raspberry though had I not seen her in the flutter color.

My second fave is the rosie woven top with Hanna leggings. I think it looks adorable. If you're trying to send stuff back, then I'd keep the Hanna leggings. I only say this because we've had Hanna leggings and I know I love how they wear. We just got our first Naartjie order last week so I'm not sure how their pants hold up compared to Hanna. Maybe get the Naartjie ones later if they go on sale?

Third fave is the butter woven top and striped pants. These three outfits are the best I think.

Adorable pictures as usual. I honestly don't know how you decide what pieces to send back. Everything looks cute and the colors are so bright.

Maureen:

I love the plaid outfit! It looks so pretty on. And I love her pose in the first picture - its priceless. I think the Hanna leggings are a great match. I would spend the $$ on something else and just stick with the Hanna ones.

Maureen,

What great color combos! They look great on K! I got the flutter and raspberry flannel dresses for Emma too, but I'm probably going to keep them both. I love the colors! I did the same thing with the matching fancy pants too. I thought for sure they were going back, but I'm glad I went ahead and tried them on cause they are so cute!!!
