Do yourself a favor and go grab a cup of hot chocolate and a blanket for your lap, because you're going to be sitting at your computer for a little while doing some shopping and wish-list-makin'!
Today we're checking out Encore, the final release of the Paint By Numbers collection by Matilda Jane Clothing. (psst… and there's a $50 giveaway at the end of this post)
Penny's Outfit
In these photos, Penelope is wearing the Turtledove Knot Top, Stippling Tee, and Gallery Leggings.

What you can see: sublime little-girl whimsical style. As a budding photographer the first thing I noticed about this outfit when I took it out of the box was how well it would photograph (as all MJC outfits do) but after some wear I know it's also very practical for playtime and parties.
What you can't see: how SOFT the fabric is in the leggings and tee. These items are also very well made (I know this to be true of all MJC stuff because I've got hand-me-downs from my niece that are in perfect condition even though I know she wore them a lot!). Five stars for style and quality.
A note on sizing... Penny is sixteen-months-old, and as you can see, the size 12mo fits her perfectly. I've noticed that MJC sizing runs a tad big for babies and toddlers, so keep this in mind as you shop for your littles.

You might remember we did another MJC giveaway in September (here), and while I'm tickled pink that we got another chance to try out another great outfit, I'm even more tickled pink that I can mix and match all these pieces together. Thus is the Matilda Jane way… so many cute pieces and so many ways to mix and match them together!
Penny is going to show off her new MJC ensembles at two of the many Christmas events that we have on our calendar in the next two weeks. Perfect timing!

P.S. My blogariffic sister-in-law is featuring a MJC review and a giveaway on her blog this week as well. As far as I'm concerned, there's no shame in entering both drawings, especially since it means you get to see more of my sweet niece, Hope, sporting her MJC outfit too.
Aren't these cousins the sweetest?
