Une Envie de Sel

Tuesday

Our friend Nathalie was lucky enough to go to Cuba for her birthday, and she brought back this lovely little dress for Q!

Thank you, Nathalie! ox

Maia said...: Her ongoing obsession with the Wizard of Oz, John. In that tornado, if you look closely, you will find the faces of the tinman, the scarecrow, Dorothy, and most likely "Tiny Little HoHo" (as she calls ToTo); July 19, 2011 at 2:59 PM
Unknown said...: Terrific terrific shots! Your little girl is sooo tall and lovely. She looks beautiful in her new dress!; July 19, 2011 at 4:09 PM
Maia said...: Thanks Chantale!

And Yoli, I didn't make it - I was thinking of making her one, but when we were on our mini roadtrip we stopped at an "Indian trading post" in Glenwood Springs (last home of Doc Holiday). It's the sort of place I remember from childhood roadtrips, one of those kitschy shops that sells fake turquoise, tumbled rocks, and fringed cowboy vests for toddlers. I loved those as a kid, and they still have the same merchandise now! I found her a kiddie headdress and tomahawk, exactly as they made them in 1974 ;); July 19, 2011 at 9:59 PM
Maia said...: Come to think of it, that set has probably been on the same rack in the same store SINCE 1974!; July 19, 2011 at 10:01 PM
... ... ... said...: It is really very pretty in her dress, and it is clear that it came from a family of artists, she has many things to express, it is too cute; July 20, 2011 at 2:10 AM
Mom-Friday said...: Oh wow, Q is sooooo tall now! :) and she's just turning 4 right?
Beautiful girl!; July 20, 2011 at 6:16 AM

I found your blog about a month ago and I look forward to all of your posts and love the shop!
