April Cornell, Baby Lulu and Holiday pics---also, which outfit for Thanksgiving?

[Tracey]

Ok, Ava has a cold and was not the happy camper model. Please ignore the snotty nose and watery eyes! After a few outfits I threw in the towel. I did manage to get a few shots of the oriental set from April Cornell and the Baby Lulu paisley set. I LOVE these. The other outfits are for her Christmas wardrobe...the Orient Expressed snowmen, an Isabel Garreton dress, and the CWD lights dress. I put all of the pics in photobucket. Just ignore the pics after the first two rows. Here is the link and the password is avapics http://photobucket.com/albums/v297/akamurphy85/?action=logout You can also click on any of the pictures for a larger view.

My question is about Thanksgiving. Should I just go with the overalls set (the ones with the autumn fabric) that we already have or should I get a dress? I am so indecisive! I intended to go back to April Cornell and get the dress with the mice in the pockets, but I never got back over there. I also like the Hanna apple jumper with the eyelet pieces. What do you think? Here are the other two Thanksgiving options:

She's adorable, and the clothes all look great on her. :)

For Thanksgiving, I like the Hanna apple-a-day dress best. The autumn-y overalls are cute, too; it depends on how formal your Thanksgiving is. Also, I like the darker colors for Thanksgiving better...but then, I also really like the kimono-thingy she's wearing in the first few pics for Thanksgiving - the colors work, and it looks pretty dressy to me! So my vote would be for the Hanna apple jumper or that kimono set.

HTH,

Wow, your daughter is very cute. I love the asian outfit and the Hanna apple one would be great for Thanksgiving. The OE snowman dress is darling - I have a couple of questions about it:

what size did you get?
was OE's sizing accurate?
are you happy with the quality?

Thanks!

I don't have advice about the outifts, but I have to say that the pictures of her in that white dress are so darling it hurts. I couldn't not comment!

She looks adorable in all of those outfits, but I love the Baby Lulu outfit! I agree that the apple jumper would be a great Thanksgiving outfit. It's just so sweet with those bloomers.

Have fun deciding!!!

Hi Poebe,
Thanks for the sweet words. I bought the dress in a size 2. The sizing chart was accurate. Bishops are pretty easy to fit though. You only have to worry about the neck and the length. I like them longer, so the 2 works for us even though Ava is between 12-18m and 18-24m in Gymbo. I am very happy with the quality. Ava had a summer dress from them and it help up great and still looks new. I hope that helps!

Thanks everyone for the input and the compliments. I went ahead and ordered the Hanna jumper and eyelet creeper. She can still wear the pantaloons from last year. I thought about it and supposed that this would be the last year that she could do that sweet baby look with the eyelet pieces underneath. I better enjoy it while I can!

Thanks for the info, Tracey. It will be a splurge, but I may get the kids matching OE outfits for Christmas. I'm thinking of maybe the santa/sleigh/trees on blue. Although the snowmen are really cute too...

All of them are cute! Ava is a great model - and can I borrow her to snap some holiday pics with my DS?! We have the Orient Expressed bubble for the holidays :) so I'm especially loving that on your little girl!
