a tutu fit for a princess
For the little girl that dreams of sugarplum fairies and magic wands, a tutu is a necessity. While tutu’s are plentiful these days, we think that her favorite dress up item should be a magical accessory that is kept forever. Tutu Couture can help you create just that type of tutu. Created for the whimsical princess in us all, Tutu Couture will make her dreams come true with one of their handcrafted pieces created especially for your little princess.

Each tutu is created from over seventy yards of premium tulle and hand-embellished to create an heirloom your princess will cherish forever. At Nordstrom’s special online boutique, you can design your very own tutu and the ladies at Tutu Couture will create it just for you. Choose from four lengths, beautiful colors, and add on with beautiful embellishments like a bow, rhinestones, pom poms, and flowers (or keep it classic).

In just four weeks her very own tutu will arrive and we think this is a wonderful gift worth waiting for. Pricing ranges between $55 to $95, well worth the years of memories to come.

calling all lovers of pink
For a girly mom (you know who you are) who adores all things pink, the JP Lizzy Strawberry Truffle Classic Tote Set is simply a must have! This tote is the perfect size for travels with baby, not too big and not to small. We love that the fabric is a microfiber that easily wipes down and the liner is just as friendly to messes. Not only do you get this adorable tote, but its about all the extras ladies! Included inside the bag are a coordinating changing pad, cosmetic bag and wristlet (perfect for a quick run into the convenient store). With pockets galore and metal feet to keep it looking good, we are simply in love with JP Lizzy’s tote set. Not a lover of pink? Don’t fret! JP Lizzy has tons of looks to choose from and we are sure you will find the diaper bag that suits your style.

Every princess deserves a crown, even a tiny one! These ornamental crowns designed by Shelly Kennedy are reproduced by skilled glass craftsmen to create gorgeous one of a kind keepsakes. Each tiny tiara is approximately three inches tall, sits upon a satin pillow and comes beautifully packaged in an acrylic cube. The perfect gift for a special little girl; a tiny tiara is a wonderful keepsake for those who appreciate beauty.


tea for two
Perfect for a princess in waiting, this dainty tea set found at Chasing Fireflies will light up her eyes. The set includes four distinct two-tone teacups, saucers, teapot, creamer and sugar bowl. We love that the set is microwaveble and dishwasher safe, so she can enjoy a real feast. Perfectly packaged in a round gift box; serve up this fanciful gift to your favorite little lady.


mirror mirror on the wall
For a true girly girl, a full-length mirror is required for dress up and daily primping. We love this classic Chevalier Mirror we found at KooKoo Bear Kids. Hand crafted from wood and finished in pastel pink; this kid-sized oval floor mirror has a safe shatterproof acrylic mirror that swivels around (no need to worry!). What little princess wouldn’t love a full-length mirror?

This tricycle will stand up to all the rigors of child play as it is made of heavy gauge steel and meets all child safety standards.
