ses petites mains special occasion...

Special occasion--I love the sound of that.  For our tiny chic customers, it could mean an eighth birthday (like my daughter is soon to experience); a walk down the aisle as a flower girl; a visit to Grandma on her birthday; or one of those regular days that you just feel the need to make a bit more special. 

And we at ses petites mains love how our dresses have become a must-wear to these type of events.

'Thrilled beyond words' is how you would describe our excitement over having two of our pieces featured in Martha Stewart Wedding next month. 

Cheers to Gabrielle at Design Mom for directing her readers to us when the search for flower girl dresses left her readers wanting.  Happily, we obliged--shipping off greta, amaryllis, rose and others to stores and customers alike. 

And tomorrow, ses petites mains has its own special occasion--we will shoot our very first special occasion-only photoshoot. Our props (above) hint to the themes of memorable days in any little girl's life. Check back in a week or two and you can see the full range of styles, colors, and fabrics of our tiny chic special pieces.

The Rose dress--encore encore!

As a designer, I would be lying if I said that I didn't have a favorite collection, a favorite season or a favorite style.  In the process of designing a season, I love to create a story--complete with characters, settings, moods etc.  And in that process, one character (aka a dress, pant or top) will emerge, leaving me totally enchanted.

[Rose, enter stage left] The Rose dress, in our mae denim--soft, light-weight and perfect for sunny days-- has held that spot in my heart for some time.  It doesn't hurt that the orders for Rose just don't stop coming--remember she is very enchanting!  And, although the lovely buyers at Chasing Fireflies do their best to keep ordering more and more, she will eventually sell out, so get yours, while you still can!

Look for the Rose Dress in the new Chasing Fireflies catalog or on-line.

penny for your thoughts

I'm thinking of all the things that a penny is good for...penny candy, oh wait, no such thing anymore.  I know, penny arcades.  No, they really have to be renamed dollar arcades. 

Penny for your thoughts?   I like that, and love the sentiment--a friend sitting near but miles away.  Dreaming of something--if you only you knew.

Well, here's a nice thought...you can dress your sweet little one in all the Pennies of ses petites mains, and save some, in the process.  Buy our Penny top & Penelope skort and save 25%...

that's worth much more than a penny, don't you think?

Earth Day, nothing tiny about it.

Today, on Earth Day, pick 3 things that you can do to ease the burden we place upon Mother Earth.  Here are a few easy ideas--bring your own cup when you go to your favorite cafe;  take a walk instead of grabbing the keys; and drop a few seeds in the back yard and start a garden.  Or just create a moment to learn more about the wonders of the world around us.  And in that new knowledge, vow to protect one of the beautiful discoveries you make.

Just last weekend--we visited the Monterey Bay Aquarium, a favorite spot in our family, for sure.  As an adult, I am taken aback by how much I learn each and every time I visit.  For my daughter, its wonderful to see her growing understanding and appreciation for all things sea-bound. 

So allow me to share some spectacular images in honor of Mother Earth--thanks for the color; the odd and beautiful creatures; and the endless mysteries that keep us fascinated.

Ericka McConnell shoots ses petites mains

One of the many lovely aspects of creating ses petites mains, has to be the fantastic people I meet along the way. 

And Ericka McConnell is no exception.  I first met Ericka when looking for models for our spring 2010 collection.  Her lovely little girl adds a tremendous amount of savoir faire to our Molly shirtwaist, our Vivienne shell (both featured below) and many others. 

And now Ericka McConnell returns the favor in kind with the images she took featuring ses petites mains.  See for yourself...check out Ericka's blog at http://blog.erickamcconnell.com/2010/04/athena-hippie.html

Enjoy!
