I’m so over big bows and mini-brides (was I ever under them?)! I love the idea of dressing our flower girl in a preppy little J.Crew number. I don’t know what it is about the ‘Crew; I haven’t shopped there in years, but their stuff lately has got me coveting! I covet!!

Like Jezebel.com writes, “J.Crew’s Ovary-Busting Children Should Come with a Warning.” Their caption is spot-on!

For crying out loud. The cute is killing me. Can I sue? Can my ovaries sue? Can my empty uterus sue? I’ve always kind of been the person who was like, oh kids. Those are for poor people and rich people. I’d rather spend my money on vacations to Tahiti and Japanese lessons. But I forgot how utterly adorable they could be. If only it were as easy as dialing J.Crew’s 800 number and putting one on your MasterCard.

Proof?

I love their expressions; the one on the left looks like she might choke you. The other one is like, B*tch please!

Mr. Potato Head has a niece (age 7) and two nephews (ages 6 and 10). I’ll be honest. I’m not very good with kids. I talk to them like they’re adults. I’m all, “So what’s new? Anything good going on this weekend?” I put his niece’s Barbie in Ken’s pants and tell her she’s going off to work. Obnoxious stuff like that. I agreed they should be included in the wedding and I’m happy to have the little tater tots involved with everything. But I was also a little bit like, oh, kids.

However, now that I realize I don’t have to put mini-Chip in a big bow-laden dress, I am totes magotes on board. Besides, if I were a kid in a wedding I’d be psyched to wear some weird preppy funky stuff and give everyone the stink-eye.

Like this flouncy skirt

With this casual top

And a little polka-dot sweater in case it’s cold

A Blair-Waldon-esque headband

Fun shoes (except I would buy some sparklies from Payless instead. Holla)

Some oversized baubles (Get thee to a Target!)

Ahh! I die! Where do you scout cute flower girl attire? Is your flower girl wearing anything outside of the norm?
