Armani Junior Knit and Denim Dress

Happy 2012 everyone! The year of a supposed doomsday! Who knows if it is actually true, but why not use this as a great excuse to adopt a "live every day like it's your last" attitude? Or one close to it works too. If you want to go skydiving, go. If you want to buy a new car but don't really need one, do it anyway. If you want to go to Hawaii, get a tattoo, call a long lost love, do it. What is the worst that can happen? We see 2013 and all of a sudden you say, "Wow, 2012 was the best year of my life. Why not live EVERY year like that??" Sorry, I have been reading a lot of inspirational books lately. Apparently they are working :)

So, maybe on your 2012 bucket list is to indulge your little one in some expensive and beautiful items that you wouldn't normally buy. Why not? It is fun. If you are new to the miniature versions of the big name designers, Armani Junior is a great place to start because the prices are actually quite reasonable. Take this sweet dress for example. It is one piece: a knit top with attached pleated denim skirt, and even some attached snap-closure bloomers underneath. The adorable striped sparkly bow has the Armani logo at the bottom, and the striped cap sleeves match. There are navy blue buttons down the back, another denim bow around the waist (like a faux belt), and adorable scoop pockets on the front. It is very apparent that a lot of thought and purpose went into this beautifully-crafted dress. All of this for $115.00! Let this be the start of your designer baby clothes obsession. Find it at Saks Fifth Avenue.
