2 lil Angels Boutique

An online friend, Sarah, recently opened her own online shop for girls' hair accessories, 2 lil Angels Boutique. She explains the reason for starting her own online shop:

She was disappointed in the cheap accessories offered in retail stores, and could never find that perfect finishing touch from other online boutiques.

I can definitely agree with that! When Alyssa was younger, it was very difficult to find hair accessories that were made with quality materials and made to last, and then to find ones that were appealing! Even now, it can be a struggle to find bows, bands and barrettes that can withstand the vigorous activities of a three and a half year old whirlwind.

So when Sarah asked if I would like to try out some of her products with Alyssa, I was more than happy to oblige! I had already been checking out her boutique, and looking over the various available colors and trying to come up with some nice combinations. (I also have my eye on the custom tutus, but don't tell Alyssa! I think she'd explode before being able to wait until her fourth birthday -- October -- for one!)

Alyssa couldn't wait to try out the three hair accessories from 2 lil Angels Boutique:

She liked the small patterned bow.

She really loved the white Shallyn Bow.

But was sort of "meh" about thePunky Pink Clippie.

But that's okay, because I like it, and it works great with my hair!

So now that I've told you what Alyssa thinks of the hair accessories, you may be wondering what I think of them. Well, I really like them! The patterns available are adorable, and the bows themselves are put together very well. Even with me fussing with them, Alyssa putting them in and taking them out several times, and Ryan yanking a bow out of her hair this morning, they're still looking as good as new! The fasteners -- french barrette for the bows and alligator clip for the Clippie -- are firmly attached to the bows, and do quite well with keeping a hold of Alyssa's thick hair. :) So I am definitely a sold... any hair accessory that can hold up to being mauled at repeatedly is good as gold in my book!
