We were out shopping on Thursday for a couple new outfits for Ainsley. I can't keep this girl in clothes. All the pants we have that fit in her waist are getting way too short or have a hole in the knee. While we were shopping she saw all of the Easter dresses that were out and asked if she could get a new church dress. She noticed this black velvet dress with red fur or feathers around the sleeves on the clearance rack and asked if she could have that one. The problem was it only came in 18 and 24 months. Later as we were looking thru some bigger clothes I came across this one - also on the clearance rack. I saw that it had fur around the sleeves and thought Ainsley might like it.
I figured that Easter was early so it would be ok to get her a dress with long sleeves. She'd still get several weeks of use out of it this spring. But it's white - would she really get more than one use out of it? So I decided to check the price tag. This was a lined good quality dress. It was 60 or 70% off - only $9.20 - plus I had a Kohl's card so I got another 15% off. For $7.84 I was totally going to get this dress. I figured she could use it as a church dress til it got warm or stained whichever came first and then it could be used as a dress-up dress. It totally has the snow princess thing going on. (Ainsley got a dress-up dress for Christmas and it was quite a bit more than $7.84)
Anyway - Ainsley and I were both pleased with this bargain!

What a cute snow princess! Kohl's is my favorite store for a good quality bargain! I got a BIG Samsonite suitcase there last fall. Regularly: $335.00; after all the discounts: $47.50! I nearly floated out of the store!
Gotta love Kohls. They always have great deals. Very cute dress and it looks like she just loves it too.
Your daughters are darling! The good thing about white is that you can always bleach the stains if you need to!
How fun! I'll be she feel absolutely beautiful in it! She's sure a cutie!
I'm glad you are back! I've missed you on your blog. I'm sorry to hear you have all been so sick. What a pretty dress for a pretty little girl!
