Oh So Chic! {GIVEAWAY & DISCOUNT}

Paging Dr. Drew or one of those doctor dudes on Intervention!  I know admitting you have a problem is the first step and I'm ready.  I hope someone out there can help me because I'm completely and totally addicted.... to hair bows.  There, I said it.  And you what?  I do feel better.

Moms of girls, I know I can't be the only one.  From the moment I found out we were having girls, I envisioned them wearing sassy little clips in their hair every day, perfectly coordinated with their outfits.  For a while, my dream became a reality and my little monkeys looked somewhat girly when they had a sweet bow clipped into whatever hair I could get in there.  And then toddlerhood hit, and Gabrielle and Alaina preferred even having their nails trimmed more than putting any adornment in their hair.  But my quest for the cutest clips hasn't waned.  Instead, I have a collection that grows weekly and children who occasionally let me put one of my treasured pieces into their hair.  Hey, I'll take what I can get.  And that looks a little something like this.


That's Gabrielle giving me her "Mom, I'm letting you put this thing in my hair but do you really have to take pictures too?" look.  Meanwhile, Alaina just wails until I give up on the idea of barrettes for her altogether.


Which is too bad because the hair clips I recently got from Forever Chic Bowtique are beyond adorable! I mean, really, how sweet is this bow (if you ignore my pesky kid trying to pull it out)?


And there are lots more where that came from!  I've been eying this adorable Ribbon Flower duo.


And this double layer Lilly Stripe bow is so perfect for summertime!


I love the clippie sets too.  For $4, you get to choose four of these:


Or for $6, you can pick six of these:


Those are great prices for moms like me who have more than one little girl, and they'd also make terrific party favors.  For $1, you can buy some silly toy that parents will toss out or a clippie that will actually get used.  That's an easy decision!

Forever Chic Bowtique has some pretty patriotic designs for the 4th of July that you can order now and get before the holiday.  I love this striped bow.


And this starry number is super festive!


A lot of the pieces can do double duty, as a barrette or on a headband, like this Burberry-inspired bow.


Hmmmm, I wonder if my girls might be more open to headbands?  Because I have all of these fun Forever Chic Bowtique clips just waiting to be worn.


The only other way I manage to feed my addiction these days is to pop one in their hair when they're not paying attention, like I did here. 


She may be tired, but Gabrielle is going to rock a Forever Chic Bowtique clippie whether she likes it or not!
