For those of you who haven't really done your fall/winter shopping in earnest yet, I suggest starting out with a special purchase or two. It's always easy to fill in a wardrobe later with basics. If you start off with a few treasures, it will be easier to decide which basics you need to round out your child's wardrobe.
One of my all time favorite lines is back with a beautiful collection for fall. Cakewalk is a little expensive, but certainly not as pricey as it gets, and you're
sure to get good quality clothing that you can pass down so that you feel like you're getting your money's worth.
If your daughter is a pants person, they do offer
cute trousers to match their tops and sweaters, and they have some sweet dresses. Personally, I find the skirts and tights the most precious pieces in the collection. This season Cakewalk is offering tops in gorgeous and flattering shades of turquoise and purple, but if you're looking to save a few dollars, you can get the skirt, tights and perhaps the sweater (left) - Cakewalk makes wonderful sweaters - and pair it them with any shirt you want. A simple pink or white tee and you're pretty much good to go.
Cakewalk can be found online at www.littlelunablue.com, www.zandino.com, and www.everythingbuttheprincess.com, among others . Tights run about $30 a pair, skirts $76-$90 and tops $36-$52. The sweater shown above is $100. So, not cheap. But perhaps if someone is buying a special outfit as a gift .... Most of these sites have last season's collection on sale, so if you're willing to buy ahead, you might be able to score a good deal.
