Girlie dresses that aren't too girlie
When I had my daughter--after already having a son--I am a tiny bit ashamed to admit that I became a pretty easy sell with special "girlie" things like dresses and hair clips. Girlie, but not too girlie, you know? So these new baby dresses are the exact kind of beautiful item I would have been only too happy to invest in.
Notice I said invest. The dresses from Mama Moderne aren't inexpensive--more like a dress you might get for a first birthday. But the price comes because they're handmade. And organic. And adorable.

While all the patterns are sweet, I have to say, I'm most in love with the Carolina Dresses with the sweet vintage-looking whale print and the cool Vespa-type scooter print (shown). The only problem for me is that the dresses stop at age 18 months. Guess I just need to have another baby girl.

Um, please don't tell my husband I said that. -Stephanie P.
