Easter Planning.

Planning ahead for Easter: the cutest Easter accessories, outfits, and tabletop decor.

Now that Valentine’s Day is behind us: I know Easter is over two months away, but I’m a planner and am already thinking ahead. Below, some of my favorite Easter/spring festivity finds.

Easter Dresses.

+I’ll be very pregnant and am wondering if I can get away with this, which walks the line between sleepwear and daywear…see it above! So darling! (Get the look for less with this.)

+Many of the dresses below (not sure about the nightgown-ish one above…) would also work well for an early spring Christening/Baptism. Incidentally, one of the most commonly asked questions I receive is: what should I wear to my child’s Baptism?! Below, some thoughts on how to look appropriate but chic:

+This gorgeous knit dress, or this floral one (love the scalloped trim!) — both by Ted Baker. Smitten!

+My dream dress. Wondering if I can legitimize its purchase if I pledge to wear it at both my baby shower and Easter?!

+This pretty gingham from Innika Choo, or this ladylike lovely from RedValentino (on sale!)

+This patrician’s daughter easter egg blue Marni (on maj sale).

+For bags: live for this basket bag or this one from Pam Munson, or, for something more formal, this satin one in the blue or pink (swoon!)

Easter Clothing for Minis.

+This Luli & Me for a girl; this one for a boy.

+For newborn boys who might not be ready to wear a full on starchy outfit! (I have so many friends due right around Easter.)

+This cross-print smocked dress. I already ordered for this for mini in anticipation of micro’s Baptism!

+This romper for a baby boy, or this traditional set.

+Dying over these bunny-eared Mary Janes for mini — or these crocheted ones. If you’re lucky enough to live somewhere warm, these in the petal pink! And for itty bitties: these for girls, these for boys.

+These bow-backed socks!

+This getup with knee socks. LOVE.

+This sweet gingham for a mini; this bunny-embroidered romper for a boy.

+A perfect everyday cardigan in petal pink for mini.

+This bunny bow or this traditional bonnet.

Easter Baskets for Minis.

+I absolutely adore these wicker baskets with the scalloped liners, but fellow urban dwellers will cringe at the idea of storing these big baskets. If I still lived in Chicago, this would have been my first pick.

+I also love the stitching on these monogrammed ones, but note that they do not come with a basket!

+Because we are limited on storage space, I bought a style similar to this from this exact Etsy store last year that I can collapse and pack away. I also love this with the bunny ears.

+This attachable basket bow is BEYOND.

Easter Jammies for Minis.

+In love with these gingham ones and the coordinating bunny ear sleep mask.

+These Kissy Kissy short jammies are perfect for spring.

+These bunny jammies! (Under $15!)

+These tulip-printed footies from TBBC.

Easter Tabletop Accessories.

+Love this bunny planter!

+Pink gingham tablecloth.

+OMG these bunny plates and these ears!

+This pretty moss basket.

P.S. New discoveries for minis and micros.

P.P.S. A mini tech detox worth testing and the best bags for everyday adventures.
