On the 5th of June, Elowyn will be turning one year old! To commemorate the occasion I bought her this absolutely precious 1940s blue dress at an antique store. My goal is to buy her a "new" vintage dress each birthday and then record each year with a series of photos. She's at the age that sitting still and posing for a photo are remarkably difficult. We had a couple of wardrobe malfunctions while I tried to capture a few cute shots. Her knees caught the skirt of the dress while she was speed crawling towards me, and tore the seam of her dress! Then I tried to put on the bonnet (she hates hats, headbands, etc) and she tugged it off with such gusto that the ribbon tie ripped off! What a little stinker! Hopefully at age two, she'll allow me to put on a hat.
Ruffle sleeves!
Button detail at the waist
Lace collar and bodice
The perfect pose!
Bow in the back

The bonnet that she refused to wear! :)
That yellow frock is almost identical!
