second time around

This little dress used to be mine and I couldn't wait to put it on Maddie. It's so 70's, made of cheesecloth I think and consists of an underdress and a little petticoat over the top. A 'pretty dress' occasion presented itself this weekend with the christening of my little niece and nephew. It was a lovely day.
Family from here and overseas, a beautiful ceremony and last and by no means least - a super lunch !

Definitely a warm and fuzzy event :)

so nice that dress, i use to dress with my own old clothes my daughter too, and it's so nice to have some pictures with the same dresses in different years, mine 70's- hers just 2003-2008...;)

I love your blog! I can't remember how I stumbled on it, but I'm glad I did. That dress is so adorable by the way.

Maddie is so photogenic ... I love the photos you take..I think you already know that!
Now I had a dress like that when I was a lass.. or did I dream about owning a dress like that.. The Gypsy look was big when I was in my teens and I so wanted a flouncy dress.. My mum made me a gypsy skirt with lots of tiers and flounces.. Oh to be skinny again!

Lovely day for you Asti.. so sorry that Maddie was poorly.
