When you’re passionate about fashion, everything is an opportunity to create a new look or play with pairings. The annual Christmas card is not an exception! 
My vision this year for Paisley’s look was Christmas plaid. If you’ve been following along with my blog, then you’ll know how completely obsessed I’ve been with plaid lately. So naturally, Paisley had to wear a large plaid bow! My sister, Laurie, and I chose holiday colors to compliment Paisley’s look.

I made Paisley’s bow myself with plaid ribbon and a metal hair clip from Michaels. She watched me make it and I could tell she knew it was for her. She strutted around with it like she felt so special that it was made just for her!
Merry Christmas, friends! What’s everyone doing for the holiday?

    Love the plaid bow on your pup! Wish my boxer had longer hair to put a bow on her head! xo Andrea
