Point to the Pointelle

 

Apparently, I like to run. I must enjoy this activity, because why else would I be doing it all the time? And I do it all the time. But I’m not running in the true sense. Instead, I seem to spend most of my day in a frantic race that usually takes place in a car. I run my daughter to school. We run to tumble class. I run to the grocery store. I run to the gym, where I actually do run.

With all of this zipping around at a high rate of speed, choosing what my daughter should wear during each activity isn’t always my top priority. In fact, I want to put together an outfit to be a split second decision I can make (and act on) before we start moving out the door.

Which is why I just adore these girls Pointelle shirts from Estella. Having 10 colors to choose from means an outfit is only seconds away. Even busy patterned pants or crazy fun skirts mix and match perfectly by just grabbing and going. And these shirts are ridiculously comfortable in 100% cotton, so she’ll never grab it out of my hand and throw it on the ground. Yes, she had done this before. Yes, we were late for whatever we had to go to that day.

On these rush-rush days, I do still want her to look sweet, pretty and smiling. But no, her outfits aren’t my top priority. What is, you ask? Avoiding speeding tickets.
