Smocked Pigs Dress

Pigs might not be the first thing that comes to your mind when you think about smocked clothing for children, but you have to admit, these smocked pigs are adorable. This smocked jumper from the Vive La Fete Collection is made of easy-to-care-for polyester/cotton fabric. It is so easy to put on and take off since it buttons at the shoulders. It has a 3 inch hem which can be let out as your child grows. It comes with a white short sleeve blouse with a peter pan collar trimmed with dainty pink ric rac. It has button closures in the back. The jumper can be worn with the white blouse or without. The smocking design on the jumper includes the cutest pink pigs that you can’t help but love!

At the time of this post, this little  Vive La Fete  jumper is available in several sizes at the Snowbunny Boutique. (See remarks regarding this Children’s Boutique in my recent post featuring a smocked sandcastle bishop dress by Be Mine) Many designs such as this one may be limited, so when they sell, there may not be any more listed for sale.

I am partial to this outfit because I decorated my first child’s nursery with a barnyard theme and pigs were a big part of that. I painted pigs and cows and horses on the baby’s crib and stitched an appliqué pig wall hanging to match the cow, chicken, and lamb wall hangings. We also had also had a wind up plush pig that played music. This little outfit reminds me of those days.

Now as the winter wanes on, we are all looking forward to warmer weather, lighter clothing, and pretty pastels that seem to herald the return of spring and Easter.

I thought you all would love this light blue pastel bishop dress that is smocked with a sandcastle, beach ball, and sand bucket design which is sure to be adored by the little girls.  This lovely smocked bishop dress from the Be Mine 2008 Spring/Summer collection  has angel wing  sleeves and a deep enough hem that can be let out so that it will fit your child longer.  This dress and other beautiful smocked clothing for children have been recently posted for sale at the Snowbunny Boutique

With a new season fast approaching, this light blue smocked dress is just the first of many dresses and outfits we will feature on this blog that will give you ideas for dressing up your precious little ones for the coming warm weather.

I enjoy the deeper colors for Christmas and winter clothing, but just as the seasons change,  I love the return of pastel clothing like this little blue dress  after the bleekness of winter.
