Lobster Rows

With Mother's Day right around the corner, I wanted to make sure to get in another Mommy & Me post to commemorate one of my favorite days (I get to live like a queen!).  Palava has been one of my go-to shops for cute matching outfits for years.  They're ridiculously cute, made from organic cotton, and continue to be an environmentally conscious company.  Who could want more from a small, woman-owned business?  If you're curious about their ethics, you can read their story HERE.  Otherwise, prepare for lots of mommy and me cuteness!

I'm wearing the Louise dress, which is a new style for me.  The Louise is a classic shirtwaist dress and features a collared neckline, button down front bodice, a-line skirt with hidden side pockets, a matching fabric grommet belt, and a side zippered closure.  I took my usual size UK8 and it was the right choice.  My bust has a hard time with button down features so I did have a bit of gaping between two buttons, but it definitely wasn't enough to have to size up.  In case you weren't aware, lobsters are my absolute favorite so you can imagine my excitement to wear this print!  They actually have lots of lobster printed items in their shop right now.  I'm doing my best not to buy them all but I'm just so weak!

Bianca is wearing the Penny dress and it's basically a dream.  The construction is amazing and can handle the wear and tear of a typical four year old.  The Penny features a Peter Pan collar, a-line skirt, attached fabric waist ties, and the cutest colorful button down closure in the back.  She's wearing a size 4/5 and it's great right now with a little room to grow into.  We're both super happy with these dresses and we get all kinds of compliments when we wear them together!

I hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!  I'll be getting together with my mom on Sunday night but the rest of the day is a complete surprise.  I can't wait to see what my family has in store for me!
