Gifts, Reviews and Ideas for All Things Princess
From the category archives:
This is Posh Tot’s “Princess Diana,” outfit but it looks to some like Lil’ Cinderella.
The front-apron reminds me of a Rudolf Dreikers quote I read in Positive Discipline: “Don’t do anything for a child that a child can do for herself.” Wise words, no?
Posh Tots Corset and Skirt $228.

It’s time to go. But Little Princess says she’s “not ready.” It’s “too cold.” And she’s “waaay too tired.” And why can’t she bring blankie in the car? She PROMISES not to lose it.
Mama’s too savvy to fall for that. A new idea: the Car Blankie. Just like Home Blankie, but it lives in the car. (Warning: Do not allow Car Blankie out of the car. You know why.)
Cozy for car-naps. Toasty for pre-dropoff. Heart-ed and sweetly personalized for your Little Princess. ButterscotchBlankees $125.00

All Tarina Tarantino jewelry is super-fabulous. The I Love You Ring has brought this mommy untold joy. On the wish list is this pink-tastic necklace.
It’s fun having mommy jewelry that makes your Little Princess squeak with happiness, like you’re playing dress up together.
You can get her version at Claire’s Accessories 
.
Tarina Tarantino Hello Kitty Swaroski Crystals Charm Necklace $149.

Sometimes a Princess simply needs a little time alone.
Not like in a “time out” way, more like a “I no longer wish to play with The Prince, nor do I want to eat the gross food you’re serving for dinner” way.
For those moments, try this little pink silo; we know sisters who share a room and use it for a little privacy. Tip: Stash books and a mini book light in there. Princess Canopy, $99.00.
