Don’t let the cuteness of these photos of Dolly fool you, folks - this was the most difficult outfit to photograph so far. Since turning 18 months Dolly has decided she wants more of an opinion on what she wears (we're talking diva tantrums). She doesn’t want to wear trousers anymore and pulls at them as soon as I put them on her. She also freaks out whenever I put her top on over her head. The only thing she doesn't have a problem with are her trainers. She likes these cute Snoopy Vans almost as much as me. It’s dramz we just don’t need when we are running late for creche/the gym in the morning. The turban isn’t a problem unless she realises it’s there. And as for the shades? Well, they were kind of her idea. Just as we were about to leave the house she picked up my sunglasses and put them on (upside down) and looked very impressed with herself. Lightbulb moment! I remembered these AMAZING Mickey Mouse sunglasses I bought when I was styling a shoot in DisneyWorld Florida at the start of the year. I actually stole the style from a little old lady who was lying on a sun lounger by the pool at Disney’s Grand Floridan Resort & Spa. She was wearing a black one piece swimsuit, a tight blonde perm, red lippy and these Mickey shades. She looked AWESOME! My friend then pointed out to me that they're actually kids sunglasses, and suddenly I loved her (and them) just that little bit more. Dolls wasn’t as impressed and didn't keep them on for long, so I decided to emulate my old lady style icon and wear them myself, much to Dolly’s delight!
