Lil' Princess Bowtique Review and Giveaway!

A little girl can never have too many bows! Bows come in every color, shape, and size, and without them a little girl's outfit is just not complete! We were recently given the opportunity to review the most beautiful bows from Lil' Princess Bowtique, an Etsy shop run by Alice, who is one of the sweetest people I've met online through this blog! Alice has two children, a 4 year old daughter and 2 year old son, and of course her daughter loves the hair bows! This is what got Alice started in making her bows, and eventually her hobby grew into a passion, which lead to her starting her own online business to sell the bows.

Alice's inspiration comes from her daughter, who especially loves all things glitter and rhinestone, which is why many of her bows feature rhinestones. As you can see by browsing her shop, Alice loves to use many different colors and prints of ribbon. Some of her best work comes from mixing and matching the different ribbons on a particular hair clip, which makes it very fun and unique. She also is happy to make custom work, and appreciates knowing she is making her customers smile!

Alice's favorite set of bows is the Colorful Stitches set (seen above), which is the one she sent to Izzy and I to try! I love this set because the bows are very versatile and can be matched to many different outfits. Some of my other favorites include the Pink Snowflakes set, which is great for wintertime, and the Flower Bouquet set. But, to be honest, pretty much all of her bows are my favorites! What I personally really love about Alice's bows are the variety of unique patterns and colors, because sometimes it can be hard to find bows that are more customized to a certain outfit. We don't have to worry now though, since we have lots of ways to find out all about Alice's beautiful bows! One of the things I'm most impressed with when it comes to Alice's bows is how well they stay in Izzy's hair. She is a very active toddler, and she usually spends most of her time dancing around, but the bows stay put so well!

You can find Alice of course at her shop, at her blog, her Facebook fan page, and through her Twitter account. With all these ways to stay in touch with Alice, you'll always be up to date on what she's currently adding to her shop!

Now guess what... one of you lucky ladies is going to be winning a generous stash of bows for your own little princess! The winner will receive 1 custom colors set of 6 hair clips, their choice of of any of the 5 clips sets, and also their choice of one set of the wide clips! Someone's princess is going to be very happy!

I know this picture of Izzy looks silly, but I just wanted you all to see up close the size of the clips and how they look in Izzy's hair.
