Darling Clothing for Little Girls

by Katie Wallace | Updated: August 1, 2016

If you have little girls, you know all about tea parties, twirly dresses, and living room fashion shows. Matilda Jane Clothing makes it easy to embrace the magic of childhood with darling outfits that mix and match. Many styles even grow with your child! Dresses that transform into tops let your little ones wear their favorite pieces longer. My two girls, just 2 and 4, are already swapping clothes, and Matilda Jane makes that so much fun!

Whimsical Patterns and Playful Designs

What I love most about Matilda Jane Clothing are the whimsical, playful patterns. One dress can feature 6 to 8 coordinating prints, yet everything comes together beautifully. Adjustable straps, ties, and button loops allow dresses to grow with your child, and many can be paired with leggings for a completely new look. My girls were overjoyed dressing up in Matilda Jane for a tea party with their WellieWishers American Girl dolls, complete with tiny cakes and afternoon giggles!

Matilda Jane also offers solid-colored dresses that are full of charm, from ruffles and tiered layers to cute bows and ties. Everything coordinates perfectly with matching hair accessories and leggings.

For toddlers, Doodle Pants knit leggings are one of our favorites! They coordinate with Matilda Jane dresses and feature adorable characters on the rear for an extra dose of cuteness.

Afternoon Tea Guests

Every little girl needs a WellieWishers Doll from American Girl, a fuzzy kitten, and a favorite Matilda Jane dress! The WellieWishers collection includes five friends, each with unique outfits and coordinating Wellie boots. WellieWishers make the perfect companions for dress-up, tea parties, or just cozy imaginative play.

Timeless Styles for Every Occasion

Matilda Jane Clothing isn’t just whimsical, it’s timeless. Ruffles, pockets, buttons, and bows let girls embrace their girly side while exploring, twirling, and adventuring. The Fall Collection is filled with favorites like the “Oh Dear” tunic with lavender, aqua, and printed ruffles. Alternately, the “Happily Ever After” skirt has layered tulle and charming mauve pinstripes.

I even treated myself to one of my favorite Matilda Jane dresses. The “Splendid Dress” from the Once Upon a Time collection is a showstopper with bright blues, pinks, and fuchsias in a beautiful floral pattern. I love that Matilda Jane offers styles for moms too, many of which coordinate with little girls’ outfits for twinning moments.

Back to School in Style

Matilda Jane also makes back-to-school fun and stylish. Coordinating backpacks, lunchboxes, water bottles, and pencil cases feature the same whimsical patterns as the clothing line. This allows little girls to carry a bit of magic with them every day. From soft florals to playful dots in pinks, greens, and aqua, these items are functional, beautiful, and perfect for your darling girl.

Matilda Jane Clothing is a celebration of childhood whimsy, timeless fashion, and high-quality designs. Don’t miss browsing their latest collections to find outfits your little girl will love!

We had the best time at the Hits Deep Tour in Spok We had the best time at the Hits Deep Tour in Spokane with TobyMac 🌟🎤

Why is he such a great influence?

TobyMac has been creating and performing music for more than 40 years. From his early days with DC Talk to his solo career, he’s consistently used his creativity and platform to encourage people and boldly point them toward Jesus.

We’re so thankful for artists who bring high energy, excellence, and faith together in a way our whole family can enjoy. Nights like this aren’t just fun. They’re meaningful.

We love making family memories like this! 💛

If you’ve ever been to a TobyMac show, you know the joy is contagious.

Some homeschool days are smooth, others are hard. Some homeschool days are smooth, others are hard. 😌 We try to appreciate the journey!

Confidence is built when kids learn to keep trying, even when it’s frustrating. We remind our kids to take the first step… and then the next. To us, progress matters more than perfection.

We believe diligence grows when our kids know they’re capable, and supported.

🙌 We trust God with the growth, and we show up for the daily work.

💬 Does anyone else have days where perseverance is the real lesson?

We’re home right now, but we’re still going on adv We’re home right now, but we’re still going on adventures! 😊📣📚

This homeschool semester started with the things our kids love most: focused learning, creative projects, and staying active. Right now that looks like basketball, cheer, and lots focused school days.

These home seasons matter. They give our kids space to build skills, explore interests, and settle into routines — while we take a pause from exploring new places.

A lot of people ask if I miss traveling. Honestly, I don’t right now. 😀✨ I’m really enjoying this purposeful season of family life and growth. When the time feels right, we’ll plan our next adventure. 🗺️
