Classic Claire and her Eye for Fashion

As mentioned in the previous post, Claire has come to the point in her childhood where she no longer lets me dress her.  She insists on putting together her own outfits, and we are both learning along the way.  She is learning to express herself through her clothing, and I am learning to let go of control and simply love her individual look.  I really have come to enjoy seeing what she'll put together each day.  So much so that I thought I'd share with you some of her ensembles and the fashion rules she seems to live by. 

It's all about the layering.

Why wear one shirt when two look twice as nice?

Choose shoes that make a statement.

This is one of Claire's go-to-outfits for Sunday morning - her polka dot dress and comfy sweater...and, of course, what's an outfit without a killer pair of shoes.  In this case, her Dora clogs, a must have for the Spring season.

Accessorize Ladies!

Hats, jewelry, scarves, purses, jewelry...I have never met anyone who loves accessories as much as Claire.  And again, one is never enough. 

Work with Patterns and Textures.

In this case, striped tights with fuzzy socks and a flowered sweater work together to complete a whimsical look.

Well, that's it for now.  I'll continue to capture "Claire's Classic Looks" and pass along her advice as she continues to develop her eye for fashion. :)
