MILKWEED

I'm always on the lookout for creative designers. One of my favorite places to look is Etsy. Recently I was searching this wonderful community for something adorable and I stumbled upon a new store. MILKWEEDLOVE! Cute name, really cute designs! You won't find a huge selection at any given time (at least not yet!) but you will find creative clothes that will bring a smile to your face. Now these are happy clothes for girls! How do I know? I just feel it! And when you feel it this much, you know you've found something really special! The designs have an organic feel to them because of how they're made. They are have a generous cut which is perfect for children on the move! I think they would be very comfortable to wear!
MILKWEEDLOVE did a beautiful job giving life to older materials. Meg, the talented designer behind MILKWEED,  sent the "Anita-Bonita" dress for my review. The dress is exceptionally soft! It is fully lined and the only thing missing is matching bloomers! The colors are bright and the dress flows beautifully. It's a great buy for those on a budget because it can be worn as a dress and later on as a tunic! My favorite feature is the flower! It is handmade, and she uses an older tee. It's one of the most creative ways to make something old new again! Simply brilliant! The flower is made using a completely different print. It compliments the dress so well! It's pretty generous in size, but not so large that it gets in the way. Anything smaller would have lacked the impact that this makes. This flower really makes a statement! Each cheerful little dress is labeled with the most adorable tags! Speaking of tags, the tag inside each dress is beautifully handmade using really soft fabric! No scratchy, annoying tags! Check out MILKWEEDLOVE and watch for new listings. You can also find MILKWEED on facebook and see  even more gorgeous designs!
To Disclose: I was sent a dress in order to complete this review. No monetary compensation received and honest opinions given.
