So one day as I was scrolling through Facebook I see this notification pop up....saying I was invited to join a new group "Dot Dot Smile Tennessee Twirl" (I went ahead and linked that for you, you're welcome). Now this happens several times a day, I'm added to some BST group, or some new boutique or chat page, so I didn't pay much attention honestly. Fast forward a week and I, once again, was scrolling through and saw this beautiful floral print on a dress in a size 5/6. I figured it was BST fate, seeing how it had red, white and blue tones in a floral twirly looking dress. I claimed it, paid the uber-reasonable $32 + shipping, and four days later it was in our mailbox. I opened it and Merce squealed. It was so soft! She tried it on, attempted to sleep in it but was denied, and we planned pictures for the next day. She didn't even argue.
This Dot Dot Smile company operates similarly to LuLaRoe, their Merchandisers receives boxes of goodies with no idea what prints are in it. You purchase through the Merchandiser in person or online through an event or group, and guess what?! MADE IN THE USA! Now, because you never know what the Merchandisers are going to receive (and neither do they) I would think it would be logical to have a main Merchandiser and then maybe a side chick or two in case you are searching for a specific print.
Merce is wearing a size 5/6 in the Classic Cap sleeve style. She is now measuring 49" and 52#, wearing the 5/6 with little growing room and what I call a perfect fit. You can see length is good, and the cap sleeves should make this completely school dress code friendly. She did her usual twirling and running and climbing throughout our 'shoot' and was free to move as she pleased in the dress. It was not restricting at all, and the fabric seems rather durable. I love that there's going to be so many ways to style this...cardigan and dress shoes, jean jacket and boots, black leather jacket and some chucks might be at the top of the list to try when it gets cooler. Sorry, there was no layering in this shoot, it was 97 degrees at 7:30pm.

And now I just leave you with more pictures. I bet you have a Dot Dot Smile Merchandiser near you, if not--I've linked you to one a few times in the last couple minutes. 😂
Disclaimer: I receive no kick-back whatsoever from this. I purchased the dress at retail price and the shoes on sale. Merce is not a rep for either company, and I have no close ties with the DDS Merchandiser. Just my honest opinion. 💗

Love Jill! Thank you. I'm constantly in awe of how fast my girl grows, and how different it is from my boys. Both special and unique. Ava is beautiful as always.
