Twiice Loved Giveaway [OVER]

Congrats Jesse! You have won a beautiful doll from Twiice Loved! I will be contacting you soon! Thank you to everyone who entered this giveaway!

It's almost Halloween! Eeek. I'm so excited. I'm ready to dress Adrienne up in her little bumblebee tutu. I totally gave her a high-five for being so darn cute in it. We also have a birthday party to go to this week, plus I'm having a huge moving sale to get rid of all my excessive junk. So, busy bees? Always. See what I just did there?

Anyhoney, I'm also excited to give all you beautiful readers of mine another amazing giveaway. I'm teaming up with Twiice Loved this week! Twiice Loved creates some of the most exquisite rag dolls in all of the land. Not only are these dolls pretty big (they measure 23" each!), their details are breathtaking. From removable fur coats to gold party dresses, these dolls have the glam. It seems only fitting that their level of fancy is so high, since they are handmade in London. I don't know what it is, but everything seems more glittery over in the U.K.

Each doll is hand-crafted from recycled and vintage materials. No two are alike! Compared to other rag dolls in the same field costing close to $200, cough Jess Brown cough, the prices of these dolls are pretty grand. Some Twiice Loved dolls sell for only $25 doll hairs. Twiice Loved even makes custom rag dolls!

These dolls are the perfect decor for any little princess's room, having that shabby chic, vintage feel. They also make great companions for that same little princess. I know Adrienne loves having tea parties with hers. Crumpets, anyone?

Now it's time for the giveaway! One lucky reader will win a doll from Twiice Loved.

For your chance to win, just log into the Rafflecopter below (or make a new Rafflecopter account), and follow the directions for each entry. Please make sure to actually do what's required for each entry. If you just click enter and not do what it's asking, I'll know. If you are unsure how to do one, skip it and contact me. I can't stress this enough. I go back and check to make sure the winner actually did what was required. I will not let cheaters win. DON'T CHEAT. Meh.

Strawberry Children

It's no surprise that my child loves clothes. Her mother's daughter, if you will. She loves to go into her closet and pick out her own outfit that she puts on correctly. Mostly. Her socks still are loopy and her shirts are usually backwards. But A for effort? Right!

Regardless and irregardless at the same time, Strawberry Children emailed me last week wanting me to check out their absolutely precious children's designer clothing online site. I about croaked. Tiny Moschino jeans? Holy cuteness.

Strawberry Children, who is based out of Liverpool, England, has an array of boy's and girl's clothing, as well as adorable baby outfits. They even sell tiny Vivienne Westwood jelly shoes for the little fashion queens in your life. ::swoon::

Be sure to also check out their Catimini autumn winter 2013 collection, which has bold color combos and lots of patterns.

Holiday Gift Guide: Kiddie Addition

I've conquered the kids gift list!! I just have to say that I love toys. That's why my child has a bedroom that rivals any toy store in town. If there was a “Pop Up Video” of her room, a bubble would pop up that just simply reads, “really?” So, there's that. And here's the list of the toys I like.

Corolle Les Classiques Bebe Do

Treehouse Dollhouse

Baseball and Glove

Robot Shapes Puzzle

Melissa & Doug Wooden Food Groups

Take Me Out To The Ballgame

All Dolled Up

My child loves baby dolls. She totes them all over the house, makes them go "wee" down her slide, and brings a chosen "lucky one" to be her sidekick during shopping trips. Which really means I have to keep up with two babies. Here are her top six. She alternates her favorites, like I alternate my purses. Same, same.

The first three are Corolle baby dolls. The big one makes crying and babbling noises and my little queen gets a kick out of that. The two smaller ones are Tidoo baby dolls, which can go in the bathtub. The one in the blue dress in front HAS both legs, she just wouldn't cooperate during the shoot. All Corolle dolls smell like vanilla, so it is hard not to have one for dessert. I jest, I jest.

The cloth doll is Baby Stella from Manhattan Toy. This doll comes with a magnetic paci that stays on very well and has clothes and accessories (sold separately, boo) that are very easy for little hands to work with. She is super plump and even has a tiny belly button. Awe!

The last two are the classic Baby Huggums from Madame Alexander. I never had this baby growing up, but one of my friends did. I used to eyeball it every time I went to her house to play. Peanut. butter. and. jealousy. They are wonderful dolls with cloth bodies, and if you give them a squeeze, they squeak! I think I actually love these two more than my daughter. Come to think of it, I really get her toys for me..
