It’s no secret that we love pretty dresses in this house but over the past two years the girls have had lots more say in what they wear and their wardrobes have definitely got brighter, funkier and a whole lot more fun.

Looking at these dresses, you would have thought the girls had picked them out themselves. They didn’t though, they were a surprise gift, sent to us from one of our favourite clothing companies Lilly & Sid who know exactly what these girls like:

Daisy is wearing the Full Circle Insert Dress in coral stripe teamed with last seasons spotty tights

The girls adore bright colours, bold patterns (particularly stripes and spots) and clothes they can move in. That’s why they love dresses so much. They hate feeling restricted and are always dancing so they need to be comfortable. I love clothes that look good, wash well and don’t need too much ironing (I hate ironing)! I also like buying clothes that not everyone else has. Lilly and Sid are perfect for us all.

Lilly & Sid make clothes that children can move and play in, in all the bright colours and fabrics they adore. They look fantastic, are made to last and whilst not super girly have lots of pretty, girly touches likes ruffles and twirly skirts that make us all smile:

These dresses are perfect. Pretty enough for parties but comfortable enough for everyday use. They can be layered up with long sleeve t-shirts, tights, boots and cardigans or worn just by themselves on warmer days. The sun came out long enough to remove the cardigans for the purpose of these photos but we can’t wait until it shines more and they can just run around in these. They are so comfortable I know they are going to be lived in:

If you haven’t seen it yet, the entire new collection is just gorgeous. Between them these girls want pretty much everything so I am currently saving up to indulge them. Watch this space for plenty more pretty things.

A huge thank you Lilly & Sid.
