For little girls: Affordable Kids Clothes from Dreams Avenue + {Giveaway}

Last weekend I spent some time to pack away Lil Pumpkin's baby & toddler clothes. Let's face it - kids are growing up fast. Too fast. And one "problem" that comes up with it is that they outgrow their clothes too quickly!!

I'm all for good quality clothes that offers great mileage and comfort, and am willing to splurge once in a while, but give me good quality clothes that offers great mileage and comfort at affordable prices, and I'll be happier still ;)

If you're like me, then you should check out Dreams Avenue, a local kids clothes online boutique. Set up by a husband and wife team, Dreams Avenue brings in a multitude of chic designs for different ages and for all occasions that are kind to our pockets. Most of the clothes are from around the region e.g. Indonesia, China, Korea, Malaysia and are exclusively sold online so prices are kept low and savings passed on to the customer.

New pieces come in almost every month and for Chinese New Year {CNY}, they brought in girls cheongsam dresss with fluffy tutus! 2 of my favourite things in one adorable dress! This unique dress marries traditional and modern in the most enchanting way: the stunning bodice has cute Chinese cheongsam details including mandarin collar and the chinese knot buttons, contrasted with a simple white tutu skirt that keeps all our little princesses happy. The best part, it is finished with a hidden zip at the back for quick fuss-free dressing up!

Lil Pumpkin wore the Pretty Porcelain Tutu Dress in Coral for CNY this year and got so many compliments!

If I find something I like I tend to get them in different colours so Lil Pumpkin has the Pretty Porcelain Tutu Dress in Blue as well :P Don't be fooled by its delicate beauty.. you can see that it's hardy enough for her to run around in the playground too!

The Water-colour Me Beautiful Floral Dress is one of my favourite. It looks like Lil Pumpkin is wearing a pretty painting and I wish they had this in adult size!

So light and comfy, the 100% cotton sleeveless bodice is adorned with front ruffles for that right amount of detail, and the skirt starts at the empire line flares into a beautiful landscape of elegant floral design. It features a cutout at the back that can be fastened with a beautiful bow for a better fit.

I think one of the best-selling feature of the shop is the wide range of dress sets with accompanying accessories {usually a bag and necklace / headband} that cost less than S$30. That's really quite a steal!

With the Belle of the Ball in Olive Green, a darling eyelet floral material adorns this lovely cotton dress featuring pretty rosettes on one side and a bouncy bubble skirt. Finished with a hidden zip and matching tie-back, it also comes with matching handbag and floral hairband.

Chose this for Lil Pumpkin since her green is her daddy's fave colour, and she hardly has any green outfits in her wardrobe.
 

Another dress set we got was the Dots to Love Dress in Pink, this time in her fave colour pink! A sweet combination of polka dots and stripes, this cute little number is also adorned with an endearing ladybug motif with a cute flower on a detachable ribbon brooch {remember to remove it when washing!}. Polished with a round neckline and a tie-back for a defined fit, it comes with a matching faux-pearl elastic necklace and sling-bag which she uses to store her "pixie dust" haha.

I expect the clothes to last her for a few years so like a typical "kiasu" mum, I chose one or two sizes up for Lil Pumpkin i.e. she's 6 this year and wearing for girls 7-8 years old. She doesn't like tight-fitting clothes too so this works out well for both of us :)

Dreams Avenue sells toys, accessories and outfits for little boys and girls aged newborn to 8 years old, and I'm excited to hear that they have upcoming collections with matchy-matchy mother-child sets :) As an additional service, if customers are looking to purchase an item and want to try for size, the shop owners are welcome to let them try at their humble abode with an appointment. Product prices start from S$12, and free delivery to all Singapore addresses. Unfortunately, international shipping is not available at the moment.
