Hey guys, whats up?
We’re again for half 2 of my alligator pastel themed child bathe. If you happen to missed half 1, make sure you scope it right here so this all makes extra sense. To present a fast refresh:
Patricia from Southern Attraction threw an alligator themed get together on the present & I simply thought it was so distinctive so I needed to copy her on the concept. We met Patricia to file a podcast not too way back & she was type sufficient to ship us a few of the alligators for the get together.
Anyway, we saved the theme masculine with the alligators, however added in a pastel component to maintain our buddies & household guessing earlier than we revealed the gender. The entire thing turned out very Disneyland & Alice In Wonderland-esque. As I mentioned, head over to half 1 to peep all of the specifics.
At this time, we’re breaking down my outfit & the goodie baggage.
I wished to put on white as a result of nobody knew the gender besides Michael & my sister Faye ( her son Daxton guessed it was a woman which is so humorous ), however apart from that we have been very hush hush.
For my outfit, I wore a two-piece set from ASOS. The shirt was a cropped, v-neck lengthy sleeve & the skirt was a white pencil skirt. The fabric was thick & it actually held me in. The skirt is right here, however the prime is bought out ( comparable right here ).
I paired the set with a lilac headband to deliver some pastels into it, & I discovered this excellent one on Amazon. It’s actually fairly & excellent as a result of it seemed tremendous costly, however it wasn’t. It was like a patent leather-based lilac. Speak in regards to the footwear
SHOES! Mimi, my different little sister Faye, Erica & I all determined to put on footwear impressed by Romy & Michele. We discovered four totally different totally different colours on Amazon & they have been surprisingly cozy. They have been a bit stripper-y however we wished it that option to be humorous. They’re such an excellent discover & have been solely $35. Scope out all the colours right here ( I obtained pink after all ).
Mimi truly made hers by getting some blue footwear & pasting some blue feathered boa on it.
Anyway, I accomplished my look with a bubblegum pink, fake crocodile wrist bag. The bag is from Cult Gaia & it’s bought out now, however they’ve tons of different cute ones. You could find an identical pink one right here. It’s simply so cute & I can’t wait to put on it once more. My mani & pedi have been white- thanks Glamquad ( critically probably the most environment friendly factor ever ) & I had an natural spray tan earlier than.
Kelsey ( @kelsey_long_artistry ) got here to the get together as my good friend but additionally did my make-up. Shawn did my hair & we did a Barbie curl to go along with the lilac headband. ( If you would like Shawn’s favourite hair merchandise, take a look at her publish right here. )

Okay, shifting proper alongside. Let’s get to the goodie baggage.
We actually wished all of the manufacturers ot present by, so we did cellophane baggage with pink ribbons & an alligator sticker & Baby Boss sticker on every bag.

Poo~Pourri is throughout my house- it principally works like magic. You spritz the bowl earlier than you go & it creates this barrier on the floor of the water & traps the odor beneath. That is extremely environment friendly when you share your toilet with you S.O. or a roommate. You must know that there are NO harsh chemical substances—simply the great things. Not like the opposite guys, Poo~Pourri is secure to breathe & secure to flush. All of the stuff we like: no pretend fragrances, no parabens, & thank God- no formaldehyde. It’s only a bunch of important oils that work. That is all so vital when getting a home baby-ready so I assumed it was excellent to incorporate slightly bottle within the goodie baggage.

We wished every visitor to depart feeling recent from the Freshies & dewy from the skincare.
After filming all the main points of the get together, Chris Tran went round & requested every visitor to say one thing to me, Michael, Baby Bosstick, or all of us. We didn’t see this occur so it was so particular & enjoyable to look at it & mirror on it after the bathe.
One other enjoyable factor we did is we had a e book on the goodie bag desk. However not only a child e book, we purchased a Beverly Hills Lodge espresso desk e book. If you happen to haven’t seen one, it’s this lovely pink e book stuffed with all of the secrets and techniques of the lodge.

I’ve to say although, I’m not throwing a celebration for some time. I want a scorching minute.
Hopefully this evokes you to have a child bathe, your approach & by yourself phrases. For me, that meant no video games, no opening presents, & coed. Doing issues the way in which YOU need & the way in which YOU need to keep in mind them is healthier than custom. Personalize your occasion for you.
Typically we do issues the way in which society tells us to, however it’s extra enjoyable to do it your approach & curate occasions to your character. ( Like I simply didn’t need to put on one thing blue to my marriage ceremony, ya know ? )
