memory outfit
This outfit is inspired by places that feel like home. The vest is inspired by the wicker basket tea sets my Grandmother would give me.

The middle layer is made of the same baby blanket I had and coordinates with the top.

Shorts: Quilting Cotton, Elastic in waistband
doodle bear outfit
This outfit is inspired by the Doodle Bear toy, a teddy bear you can draw on with markers that come out in the wash. The bear comes in a denim variety and is wearing little jeans with pockets and a fly front. I wanted to recreate the essence of that toy through this matching set.
