Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice - Little Girl Dresses!

 

Just the other day I overhead and mother and her grown daughter talking about shopping for the granddaughter and what I heard shocked me!   "Why doesn't anyone dress their little girl up anymore?"

It used to be true!  For a while there, clothing became gender-neutral.  Little girls weren't donning cute dresses with white gloves and dainty hats - they were wearing jeans, shorts and tank tops - the same couture a little boy would wear!

Thank goodness girly girl dresses are coming back in style!  Parents are usually overwhelmed with joy when they find out they're having a little girl.  Visions of the infant clad in sweet baby girl dresses fill the mother's head.

It's a rite of passage to parade your little girl in front of your friends and family with dresses so cute it evokes dozens of "Awwwws" from even the hardest crowd of onlookers.

You can dress your little bundle of joy up from the day she's brought into this world until the day she leaves your nest!

You can dress them for special occasions like holidays, weddings, and christenings - or find girl's dresses that are appropriate for any day of the seasons.

You might have trouble finding girly girl dresses in a department store, though.  You can usually find a wide array of styles and choices for your little girl's dress needs online - and at a discount, too!

Tips on Shopping for a Flower Girl Dress 

The day your little girl is chosen to be in a wedding is a proud one - for both you and her!

You might not have a choice in what she's going to wear if the bride is choosing, but if you do (or if you are the bride), here are some tips to help you choose the perfect dress for the occasion:

A flower girl dress can be just a beautiful little girl's dress or a miniature version of the bridal gown. They're usually white, with a sash around the middle, but sometimes they're other colors, too.

The most important thing to remember is shop for comfort! A little girl can get antsy when she's all dressed up - and you want her to be comfortable during the ceremony and afterwards at the reception.

You also want to consider the length of the gown. The last thing you want is for her to trip on the way down the aisle because her dress was too long.

If possible, allow your little girl to be in on the process of picking her flower girl dress. It's a very special time for her, too - and it'll make her feel like a princess getting to choose her gown if she has somewhat of a say in the decision-making process.

You can find flower girl dresses in bridal boutiques in your local community, but be prepared to pay a hefty price for it. A better option for those monitoring their budget is to buy your little girl's flower dress online at a discount outlet.

Gurly Girl Dresses has many flower girl dresses you can choose from - and the cost won't break the bank, either!

Keeping Your Little Girl's Dress Forever 

Dressing your little girl up in a beautiful girly girl dress is a wonderful moment as a parent.

Wouldn't you love to preserve those memories forever?

Rather than just tossing the dresses into a memory box, take steps to turn them into keepsakes your daughter can pass down to her own offspring one day!

You may not be able to save every dress that she wears, but the really special ones can be kept forever. First, decide which dresses have special meaning for you and your family. Was it her Christening gown or the dress she wore on her very first Christmas holiday?

Maybe it's the flower girl dress she wore in your sister's wedding! No matter what the reason (even if she just looked so darned cute you can't bear to part with the dress), you can save the memory.

One way to preserve the memorabilia is to have a professional do it - the same ones who prepare a wedding dress for proper long-term storage. It's cheaper to just do it yourself. First, get the dress cleaned.

You need to read the label on the dress to see if it's washable or if it needs to be dry-cleaned. After this step, you can pack it away, but be sure to pack it in an acid-free box with acid-free tissue paper.

You might want to hang it instead of boxing it up. Whichever option you choose, make sure you store it in a cool, dry place where it's not directly in the sunlight. Once a year, take it out and see what condition it's in. Let is breathe a bit and then repack it for storage until you're ready to hand it down as an heirloom!

Make sure you stop by Gurly Girl Dresses to find the perfect keepsake dress for your child's future memory box!
