Kids’ Fashion Finds for Less and More: Girls
Guest post by Emilie Sarkissian
We’ve decided to make your job easier and thought of some great spring/summer outfits for your trendy little girl, whether you are looking to spend less or more! (Don’t worry, we’re doing the same thing for boys very soon–watch for it.)
Each outfit shows a pre-loved and a new version. Try to guess which is which.
Remember that if the new version is off-budget, end of season sales are a very good way to get your hands on these fabulous finds (that is if you can wait or are willing to take the chance of it becoming unavailable).
