Adorable Etsy Shop. . . Laken & Lila Review and Giveaway!!!

It's a good thing I have little girls (even though I do want a boy someday!), because I just have the most fun dressing them up! I'm not looking forward to the day when Kirsten starts wanting to choose all her own clothes, because I love picking out cute outfits for her.
My favorite skirt I have ever gotten for her was sent to me by Laken & Lila's sweet Etsy shop. I chose the Birdie Twirl Skirt, and I just adore the vibrant fabric! And the little green trim on the bottom of the skirt is so pretty.
Kirsten wore the Birdie Twirl skirt to church, and was so comfortable in it she wore it for the rest of the day to play outside and even to take her nap! Usually I have to change her out of her skirts or dresses as soon as we get home, so it was so nice to let her stay in it all day!
The skirt is such a cute length on her, and the quality is wonderful.
These hand-made skirts come in sizes from 6 months all the way up to 7 years. I wish she made skirts in adult sizes. . . I would definitely be buying one for myself!
Laken & Lila has a really awesome sale going on right now. . . Buy any 2 skirts and get 1 free! Plus get free shipping on all skirts shipped to the US!
This is such an awesome deal, especially if you have more than one girl or are a grandmother wanting to buy skirts for your grandchildren.

I absolutely love her taste in fabric choices, and here are some of my favorites from her shop:

*Fruit Salad Skirt (This would match so many different colors of tops!)

*Corduroy Owl Twirl Skirt (CUTEST owl fabric ever!!!)

*Fall Twirl Skirt (So stylish and fun!)

*Fall Apples and Polka Dots (I love that you can also buy a matching top for your skirt, or you can buy the skirt by itself)

This is such a great giveaway. . . Laken & Lila wants to give one of my readers any skirt of their choice!!! I don't know how I would choose between my favorites!

Here's how to enter:
*Visit her shop and leave me a comment on this post telling me which skirt is your favorite!

Get extra entries when you:
1. Follow my blog!
2. Tweet about this giveaway.
3. Mention this giveaway on your blog, with a link back to me.

    Blake is worse than my girls when it comes to picking out clothes. He always has to choose what he's going to wear, and doesn't like certain items. He can even look at a picture from a year ago and tell me that he didn't like the shirt he was in - stinker!
