Character Clothing Done Right by Misha Lulu

I hate character clothing.  Did I say I hate it?  More like I despise it, can't stand it, find it tacky, etc.  On the other hand, 3 year olds LOVE character clothing...  So, when I saw the Hello Kitty by Misha Lulu line I was thrilled!!  I actually found a line of character clothing I could more than tolerate, I could love!

Today Gabby wore the Hello Kitty by Misha Lulu "Sailor" Dress (well she called it the Hello Kitty Pirate Dress but its all the same).

Honestly, I have had a love / hate relationship with this dress.  When I first saw it, I loved it and had to have it, so I pre-ordered it (yes, you can do that to make sure you get something you have to have) but when it arrived the sizing was way off.  Misha Lulu comes in even sizes only, so I ordered a 4 for my very small 3, almost 4, year old (40 inches, 31 lbs) and when the size 4 arrived, it was TINY, I could not even get it on her kind of tiny.  I called my retailer for this item, Chi at One Good Thread, and luckily she had a size 6 left and was kind enough to let me exchange it.  So, if you need this dress, you must size up!!

This dress required the perfect matching shoe and I found these Red Livie & Luca Celestina Shimmer Sandal.  You can never go wrong with Livie & Luca Shoes.  Gabby has 5 pairs for Spring/Summer and they are the best.  The leather is so soft and they hold up really well to scuffing from concrete and playground equipment.

If you want this look, both of these items are still available during the One Good Thread Clearance Sale.  Here is the link to the details of the sale (One Good Thread Coupon Code).  Not only are these items already marked down, you can get an additional $10, $25, $40 or even whopping $75 off your total purchase with the coupon code.
