Etsy Window Shopping: Corinna Couture


We are living out a scene from “The Day After Tomorrow” here in Central Jersey- for real.

The snow drifts are taller than my children. And while I feel terrible for my husband who is outside in this blistering cold, digging us out of this snowy mess and having snowball fights with our 5 yr old Energizer Bunny… someone has to keep the toddler warm inside.

And as appealing as the idea of creating snow-filled {Freezing cold} memories is, I ultimately made the sacrifice  for the baby…  ::wink wink::

So while baby girl and I stayed toasty inside playing dress up and shimmying along to Laurie Berkner, I realized the one thing I am going to miss about the holiday season getting dressed up!

For Christmas I always end up buying my daughter 2-3 dresses because I fall in love with so many…. but one always steals the show.

This past Christmas, the show stopper was a dress I purchased from my new favorite Etsy Shop- Corinna Couture, and I didn’t want to take it off of her!

How cute is that dress?? Amazing quality, bright beautiful prints. ugh. Is Christmas really over?

This is the 2nd Corinna Couture dress I purchased for the Princess. The 1st was for her 2nd birthday.

I am addicted…

And according to the her Facebook page in the new year she’s making matching doll dresses!!

I know.

I was thinking the same thing- My husband should shovel a few extra houses for a small fee…

But until he brings home the (dress shopping) bacon…

I will be “Etsy Window Shopping”

{Etsy Window Shopping; the act of putting items in one’s online basket and then clicking the close window button.}

    Those dresses are gorgeous…. and matching ones for dolls?! SQUEE! I am bound and determined at one point to learn how to sew a cute dress like that and a matching doll one. I have the sewing machine…. but the thing intimidates the crap out of me LOL. One day I’ll just HAVE to dive in and try.

    Hi there, love the dresses! Am a fellow Etsy addict. I can’t sew and so I’m wide eyed at what others can do with needle and thread.
    Happy Birthday to your little Princess and Merry Christmas & Happy New year to your whole complicated crew he he. Stopping by from the CEO’s blog. Cheers!

    And for the record, I totally stayed indoors during the blizzard as hubs shoveled us out and kept the 5 year-old company outside. ;)
