The last of Brianna's summer clothes S&S

Whew! One kid down... Oy! lol

Hello Kitty peasant top is a little big, because I'm too lazy to cut another pattern, and I had this one from Annaliese a few years ago, lol. Not sure I like the sleeves on it. I may take the pleat out and just elasticize part of the sleeve. Brianna HATES elastic around her arm. Bows are just pinned on, I don't know if I like them or not. Shorts actually match IRL.

Barrettes are alligator clips with jewel tone variagated organza ribbon curls threaded through & tied. Turns out she can't keep them in her hair yet.

Cute print! NONE of my bigger girls can stand elastic around their arms either; and neither can I! I always cut it out of tops that I buy that come elasticized. The pleat looks just fine.

So cute. I always make the elastic way bigger than dd's arm so it doesn't bug her, but still looks cute.
