We love Hello Kitty so I freezer paper stenciled kitty with her red bow onto Boo's black tee. I found the image here and reduced it by 50%. I saw a HK tee at H&M and they wanted $15. Whatever, I knew I could do it for pennies so I did it on a tee purchased last year on clearance at Target for $2. It's quite satisfying when I can recreate something I saw at a store for way less $$. As I was stenciling I thought it would look great with a plaid skirt and just happened to have some fabric I could use. The ruffle of the skirt could've been cut to match the top half better but considering it was my first attempt at matching plaids, I'm giving myself a break. :) I attached navy bloomers to the skirt so Boo would only have to worry about 2 layers (underwear and skirt) of bottoms instead of 3 (underwear, bloomers, and skirt). The poofiness of the bloomers kind of interfere with the fall of the skirt so next time I'm either making them like underwear or shorts. By the way, how cute would this outfit be with red Dr. Martens boots? Fun to imagine but probably not a good idea at this age. They're so clunky I fear they are a tripping hazard. Anyway, I estimate the total I spent on the tee and skirt around $3.50. Nice.
Until next time,
