I'm so excited to be sharing this Owlfit from Little Bird at Mothercare with you! I've had the skirt for a while now but the rest of the outfit has been surprisingly hard to come by! I hadn't discovered Little Bird before this season and I so wish I had listened to my friend when she said to nab stuff quick!
I bought the skirt first, but they didn't have the cardigan in the shop at the time, so I thought I would order on line when the weather got colder... BIG MISTAKE! I didn't even wait for the weather to get cold and yet they sold out everywhere! And trust me, I've been looking! I eventually found this one in the Lakeside store, a mere 70 miles from home, and it's aged 4-5. Little Owl is 2. It is baggier than I would like but I've missed out on weeks of potential wearing time already!
The socks - well they really are hard to come by, and if a shop get them in stock, members of the Little Bird group on Facebook buy the lot and then sell them to other members of the group at cost plus postage. Others sell them on ebay for twice the price. I am not kidding!
I got these socks from an old school friend who happened to post on Facebook that she was going to a baby group at her local Mothercare. I cheekily asked her to look and she found them!
So that's the long awaited Little Bird Owlfit. Having waited so long to get the Owlfit together, I couldn't wait to take the photos, but it was raining... so I tried to take some at my friends house... it wasn't successful and Little Owl wasn't really in the mood when we got home... here are some outtakes!
Love my Little Owl!
That owlfit is lovely! I love green and yellow together. Gorgeous. The shoes are stunning as well.
ReplyDeleteI'm a member of the LB Facebook group as well, I saw someone bought a load of socks on there the other day!!! I got Ethan some of the gorgeous farm print PJs through that group..

I have missed so much Little Bird stuff - you snooze, you loose!
DeleteLovely colours. I do admire your commitment to colours other than pink. It is, I find, astonishingly difficult to find things without at least pink buttons or piping on them.
ReplyDeleteThanks! There is a little bit of pink in the skirt, just a bit, but now the weather has turned colder, I have paired it up with some pink tights! Maybe I need to find some green ones...
DeleteI love it, the mustard colour is so cute x
ReplyDeleteThanks - I do love mustard!
DeleteGorgeous as always! A very lovely outfit, I love the mustard items that are around lately x

Thank you!
DeleteAnd what a gorgeous Little Owl she is too!! I think I have the matching blouse for the skirt which I bagged in the recent sale but was unlucky with the skirt or socks too! Thank you for sharing #TT_Thursday
ReplyDeletehow is the blouse? It looked like it was going to need ironing so I didn't buy, but it was very pretty!
DeleteI have been trying in vain to get Syd those socks for a year! A YEAR!! I am so jealous right now!! PS Your Little Owl is rockin' Little Bird!! #TT_Thursday
ReplyDeleteI couldn't believe it when I found them, but I only have the one pair as I gave the other in the pack to a friend who has also been searching for ages!
