Baby Parfait OP (this is the dress that made my friends think I had gone mad, since I've always been a vocal opponent of both gingham and food-on-clothes. This has parfaits with whipped cream and gingham. What can I say, I'm a sucker for sweet.)
Baby hairbow
AP socks
Baby petite doll shoes (I took off the rose clips)
Baby polkadot bag
Various sweets and rose rings and pins
Puffy skirts from an ITS Pouff and Princess petti, layered over each other
