Stripe Mania Multi-tasking



Holly at Decor8 and her friend Igor are doing a bloggers-wear-stripes thing... you can read about it here, but basically it's about bloggers wearing stripes.



I'm not normally very good at joining in things like this, but as I was hanging out the washing earlier (oh the glamour) I suddenly realised how many stripy things were on the line...
So I did a quick change and got Hugh to take a photo.

My little helper changed too... no convincing from me needed. This is her favourite dress at the moment, way too small and way too hot for the weather, but she is developing a mind of her own. Her outfits are getting a little crazy. I need to make her a badge saying 'I dressed myself' or otherwise people are going to start wondering if I'm participating in some weird sort of child-fashion-abuse.



Two recent outings of the favourite dress... layered with spotty leggings and her nursery t-shirt for a quick bike ride and striped up to the max with tights. I have started sharing her more bizarre ensembles on instagram/twitter (have to amuse myself somehow)!

Yes she does literally help me hang up the washing, but for some obscure reason will only use GREEN pegs. What is wrong with this child? I've got a feeling a doctor wouldn't be able to answer this question.
