Have you been shopping for a girl's dress lately? Where are the sleeves?
We spent about four hours looking for an Easter dress for my oldest daughter. We went to three stores together, and I had been to four others previously. Grand total of size 12 dresses with sleeves: about six. Three were in the last store we visited.
After an hour at the final store, I finally put my foot down and told her she would have to wear a blouse under a sleeveless dress, so we spent another hour looking for blouses or sweaters to match the sleeveless dresses.
She finally found a dress with sleeves. It looks white in this photo, but it is really ivory.
And here are the other two girls. The pretty green/butterfly dress was from Costco. She made me cut off a layer of netting ruffles on the bottom of the skirt before she would wear it because it was itchy. Miss E. didn't complain about anything!

Cute girls in cute dresses!
ReplyDeleteI found the girl's Easter dresses at Costco and they have 1/2 sleeves which are also very frustrating to me. They look like sleeves and then when they raise their hands, there is not a bottom part to the sleeve. I tried them with shirts- they looked really silly- and finally decided to just let them wear them. However after a couple of Sundays I have decided that I still don't like them. So now I need to figure out what will make them work- tank tops, adding cloth, little jackets? I am not sure which route to go. Your girls look so cute!
