When I was growing up I spent very little time playing dress up or wearing cute bows in my hair. It wasn’t that my mother wouldn’t have done it for me, but rather that I was simply not interested. When I was pregnant with my eldest I was certain that there was no way I could possibly be carrying a girly-girl. I was wrong. Then when I was pregnant with her sister I was absolutely certain there was no way God would bless me with two girly-girls…that would just be cruel. I was wrong again. I am raising two of the girliest-girls on the planet and the thing they just cannot get enough of is a pretty hair bow. The girlier, the better. And you know what? I’m enjoying it! I love fixing their hair in adorable hair bows, they wear them so well. Alas though, I am not blessed with a crafty-jean in my body. I cannot create adorable hair creations that my girls would wear out into public; that’s is why I was thrilled by the new hair accessories we got from Sweet N’ Sassy Couture.
The girls and I had a ball picking out hair barrettes and headbands from the super cute and easy to navigate online store. With so many color and shape varieties to pick from I will never have to scour flea markets and craft stores again. Since the girls tumble and cheer (see what I told you about girly-girl?) for a purple and silver team, we chose the

3-inch purple solid boutique bow

and the 3-inch double ruffle pinwheel in sugar plum to wear to competition,

the mouserific Minnie Mouse clippie,

and a 1-inch Christmas woven candy cane headband.
As excited as we were, the production and shipping of our bows was quick with us receiving the handmade bows and headband within 20 days. The items were packed well and arrived ready to wear. The bows and headband are perfect and match our outfits and personalities perfectly. I’m going to be ordering another Christmas headband and Minnie Mouse clippy next week so we can have them for the Christmas play the girls will be in. Our entire experience with Sweet N’ Sassy Couture has been fantastic! Prompt customer service, adorable and well-made items, and quick delivery…what more can you ask for?
