Friday afternoon, I invited over a few girlfriends (all of whom have three-year-olds who are some of my son's best friends…as well as infants who I suspect are destined to be some of my daughter's best friends) to meet Goldie, drink some rose sangria (you need this recipe; it's coming up later this week), and eat cupcakes.
Because one of the benefits of being friends with a style writer is that there are generally fun products laying around to test out (drawbacks of said friendship include the fact that there is a decent chance that your feet will end up getting photographed), all the kids got to take home some new shoes to help them get outfitted for the school year. (Because moms deserve new shoes, too, my friends also went home with pairs; these were the most popular pick.)
