That Twinkie Life

“Oh, oobee doo. I wanna be like you. I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too. You’ll see it’s true someone like me. Can learn to be someone like you.”

“I Wan’na Be Like You” from The Jungle Book

Music and Lyrics by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman

Is there anything cuter than twinning with your mini? The answer is – no, no there is not! And who knew there was a day meant just for twinning with your little nugget – can everyday be April 20th? I think yes. I’ll totally match with my little ones on April 20th, because we like off the wall, never heard of it before holidays, but I may also twin with my littles on April 19th and April 21st, ha. Total weirdo over here … and I’m okay with it. Something about matching with my littles fixes all my problems, makes me happy, makes me smile, and gives lasting photos that I’ll save until one day when I am showing their future Mr. or Mrs. some super embarrassing photos. Although I personally love matching to a tee, it’s so easy to match colors or prints, too! Matching is easy peasy, but to make it easier, I’ve scoured my own personal favorites so you can join me in creating twinkie memories too!




Buck’n’Blossom Boutique 

I am obsessed with this adorable little boutique, so much so that it may be half of both mine and my daughter’s closet. I personally shop here because I know where my money is going – I know there is a family behind this boutique and the mama who owns this boutique has phenomenal customer service, plus the bottom life is that the clothes are as cute as can be. The matching outfits and solo outfits. Tap either photo above to head to the website & shop around, save 10% with the code AUDREY10.






Lilly Pulitzer 

I LOVE Lilly Pulitzer, like LOVE and have no idea how I did not know that they make matching mommy and me clothes. Awesome part? Not only is the mommy and me super cute, but they actually also have daddy and me. The prints above are to die for. Hit the Lilly Pulitzer photo to visit their main website or either photo on the side to check out that outfit. I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling that right print, pretty in pink, yes, please.






PatPat

Okay, so I was hesitant when I made my first purchase, but how cute are the matching swimsuits on the right (the picture actually links to the actual swimsuit)? I had heard bad things, things about shipping and other bad reviews about quality, but I have to say I was beyond pleased. I ordered three matching outfits and loved all of them, plus the quality was great. I will say shipping took a long time, but for the price and quality you can wait for the shipping, plus there are so many family outfits! Click on the PatPat link to head to their main site or either image to head to that look – the swimsuit we had is still there and so darn cute!






Sparkle in Pink

Adorable made affordable is an understatement. We actually have the leopard hats that they have on their website and they are just too perfect. After browsing their site more I now have a horrendously long wish list that my hubs is so not going to love. Go, run, check out their cuteness. Click on the logo for the main page and either side photo for those looks – these are two on my own wish list. I’m a real sucker for a “mama and mini” matching set.

A favorite of mine – Etsy has all the things, but they have the absolute cutest mommy and me things! Not only are you supporting someone’s small business, but you are supporting their creativity. You are empowering the creator when you buy something they made! The search for mommy and me is endless, but these are three of my favorites from my own wish list, I mean who doesn’t love Mean Girls?! Head to these shops by clicking their photos – these owners are so talented with amazing reviews.

Alrighty y’all have the deets, now – go shop. We want to see your twinning photos, so tag CECPTA @carrolltonecpta and comment below with your favorite mommy and me shopping places! I can’t wait to have more ideas from you amazing readers.

Xoxo, Happy twinning folks.
