I am obsessed with NPR, the Food Network, paper, dance shows, Anthropologie, post-structuralist theory, Weddingbee!, "The Office," and celebrity gossip. When not procrastinating from my dissertation, I spend time catering to Jellyby, our overly anxious shih tzu, and getting to know Mr. Hot Cocoa. We have only been dating for fifteen years, so it's like I'm in love with a stranger! From the East Coast, we are planning a Jewish-Chinese Extravaganza in L.A., where we both grew up.

Hot Mama Cocoa, Sister HC, and I went to Shenzhen, China, today to pick up a few more wedding-related items. We returned with the most adorable outfits for our flower girls! Get ready for some mega cuteness, Asian-style:

For Ana and Meira, the two three year olds, we got pink and yellow shirt/short sets. They are made of a Chinese silk brocade, with floral embroidery and trimming. The shoes are little silk Mary Janes, with embroidery and beading. The yellow pair has beaded flowers, and the pink pair has beaded butterflies. How I wish I could shrinky dink myself to fit in these outfits!!!

For Kate, who is eight, we got a matching “big girl’s outfit.” It’s made of the same fabric as the others, but instead of shorts, it comes with a sassy little skirt. And the shoes have tres chic criss-crossed elastics, like a real ballerina’s.

And the best part of these outfits is their price! Each top/bottom combo was less than $10, and the shoes were about $5 a pair. Hot Mama Cocoa is the meanest bargainer in town, and she was unstoppable today!

I’m imagining that the girls will wear their hair in pigtails and will carry little bamboo steamers or Asian-style baskets. They’ll add a bit of Asian flair to our Jewish ceremony.

What will your flower girls be wearing?

Hi, this is Ana & Kate’s old babysitter! G told me about your blog over the summer around the time I got engaged. They are going to be so sweet in those outfits! Ana’s four now and Kate’s six (will be seven at your wedding), not like it makes a difference in the cuteness factor! Pigtails on Ana and Kate are so adorable and bouncy, they wear them well.
