Clothes for tween girls that you'll both like

Clothes for tween girls that you'll both like
One of the biggest requests we get these days are for clothes for tween girls that aren't slutty. (Their words, not mine. Okay, mine too.) It should not be so hard to dress a ten year-old like a ten year-old, right? Well I've discovered a beautiful, classy collection of girls' wear out of Australia and bonus--it's on sale right now.
At One Sunday, you'll find lovely dresses, skirts, tanks and shorts for 8-14 year olds, all designed and ethically produced in Sydney by designer Henrietta Cheshire. I'm loving her sensibility--so classic and pretty, but not stuffy at all.

And because Australia's seasons are backwards (or, ours are), there's a whole lot of summerwear in the One Sunday sale section right now to justify the shipping costs. That means I'm seeing this pretty Bilbao dress for $50 down from $129, cute cotton twirly party skirts down to $35, and a Capri dress that I would totally wear myself, now 50% off.

While you're there, throw in one of these colorful beaded bracelets. Your daughter or niece will think you're super cool. And you didn't even have to buy her a belly-shirt. -Liz

Find lovely clothes for tween girls on sale right now at One Sunday. Prices are in Australian Dollars which makes a $50AUD dress about $49US. International shipping from Australia is free with purchases $200AUD, or a flat rate of $20.
