Chic for Cheap: A Child's Busy Birthday Party

After last week's Chic for Cheap Classy Birthday challenge, CC reader Kathy wrote it asking for help with a look for her daughter's upcoming birthday celebration.  Here's how she describes her needs:

"How timely! I'm also about to celebrate my daughter's first birthday in 2 weeks.  I need some outfit inspiration in spring colors (think pinks, yellows, white, etc.) that are "running-after-child-and-managing-101-things-at-the-same-time" friendly?"

This sweet pink top was the launching place for this simple yet pulled-together look.   Flats and jeans are a must (at least for me) if I'm going to be chasing after 1 year-olds, juggling cupcakes and more.  With a cute updo, some smokey eye makeup, and a pair of heels you could easily wear this out for a date night as well! 

Have a wonderful birthday party with your little one Kathy!  xox Ez
