My apologies for the lack of recent updates. We have been hard at work behind the scenes putting the finishing touches on our outfits & picnic setup. A couple months back, after much searching, I finally found an outfit for my infant son to wear to The Gatsby Summer Afternoon. I was doing my normal Ebay & Etsy rounds trying to find a vintage romper like the ones below...
Everything was either too big, too small, the wrong color or too expensive. I was about to give up the search, when I stumbled across Christening outfits!
Not being Catholic, I had never heard of such a thing. I was delighted to learn that they came in various throwback styles, including the sailor outfit! The silhouette of the above romper was exactly what I had been looking for and since it was made of white silk, we were able to dye it to customize the look. Costume guru, Thommy, dyed the pants & collar, changed out the buttons & added a darling silk tie. The end result - perfection! Can't wait to share pics post- picnic
