Both Sophia and Olivia were given dresses to wear so we could see what they are like. Since it is becoming increasingly more difficult to find well-made, modest - yet stylish and beautiful - clothing for girls, tweens, and young women, my daughters and I were pleasantly surprised at how many choices are available from Shabby Apple that meet these criteria.
Olivia chose Ingrid the Second from the Little Girls Dresses from Shabby Apple. She said it is very comfortable, soft, and loves all the ruffles. Although she's use to wearing dresses that are a bit longer (mid-calf), she has enjoyed wearing this shorter one that falls around her knees. Whenever she wears the dress, she always receives compliments.

Sophia chose Sacred Falls from the Women's Dresses from Shabby Apple. We used the sizing guidelines on Shabby Apple's website, and the dress fit Sophia perfectly. The dresses are true-to-size which makes it easy to choose the appropriate size.
Sophia likes the details of the neckline and all the pleating in the front which makes it different from other dresses she has seen. Like Olivia's dress, this one also is very soft and comfortable to wear.

I'd certainly wear this dress the next time I go to the Ordway or the next time I head out to a movie premiere... or the next time we have "Tuxedo Night" at karaoke.
