clan wear




As if the blond hair were not enough to announce to the world that these girls are sisters, two little matching dresses should help. Remember the matching mother/daughter Laura Ashley dresses from the 80's? I think I'm feeling deprived from never having belonged to this exclusive group of wearers. Thus I sewed a pair of clan dresses to define my little clan. I don't think I would go to the point of wearing a matching dress myself--a bit over-the-top perhaps!

    Those are way cute dresses. Plus the girls are cute themselves.

    yes, mama matching might be over the top, but i think you guys would pull it off with such finesse! i was never for sisters looking matchy-matchy, but this is really irresistible!

    Very cute! I was just looking at old photos of me and my sisters... three blondes... and I just posted one photo before I came to your blog! Your girls look like they could be my kids more than my own children--they look like me and my sisters! We only have one photo of all three of us matching. My mom loved to sew dresses for us too!

    Very sweet. I love the matchiness.

    I don't mind matching my daughter. She's the only girl out of six. And, she has brown hair, unlike her blond brothers and mama. I don't know if people know we're related.

    those are SO cute!! i love that fabric.

    sometimes i find that we all are matching by accident, or coordinate kind of. i guess it's almost subliminal!

    Really cute. Love the striped leggings/tights too! Being a twin I hate twins dressed in the same thing, but ordinary siblings look cute.

    you know my girlies love nothing more than dressing like "twins"...i swore i would never succumb to that, but alas, i've been buying them matching clothes like crazy lately.

    never say never.
