Family Lifestyle | #GloriousMesses

If there’s one thing Lyric can do completely independently, it’s make a mess. With being a 4 year old boy, it’s not only expected but at times I revel in it.

When Lyric was younger, I (like most new moms) bathed my lil baby every day. He was just so perfect and new and I didn’t want to mess him up!

At first I thought, “WOO HOO!”, and literally the next second was.. “What am I going to wear?!”. After a momentary panic, I instantly thought of Le Chateau! I know both, Daniel and Julio have been styled by Le Chateau for a few events in the past, which meant it’s Fashionights approved, and I knew there’d be a great selection.
