The look is undeniably charming — my baby girl beamed in it at Easter photos. BUT — one sleeve pulled at the seam after light tugging (she loves to swing it while walking), and the floral embroidery snagged on her car seat strap. Also waited 8 days for delivery despite ‘3–5 business days.’ Disappointing for such a pretty piece. Hope future batches improve durability.

Perfect for transitional weather! Wore it over a collared shirt to my daughter’s kindergarten graduation — she stood out in the sweetest way, and teachers kept complimenting the delicate floral details. No pilling, no shrinking, no fading. Packaging was thoughtful (recycled mailer + tissue), and tracking was spot-on. Already gifted one to my sister — we’re both obsessed.

This cardigan made naptime magical — my 3-year-old refused to take it off, saying 'it smells like flowers and hugs.' The knit is airy but holds warmth beautifully, and the subtle bloom pattern pops without overwhelming. Ordered Monday evening, got it Wednesday afternoon — seriously impressive. Customer service even followed up to confirm fit. Pure joy in sweater form.

Cute design and lovely texture — my niece looked precious wearing it to her ballet class photo shoot! Fabric is breathable and moves well with dance steps. However, the buttons came loose after one wear (easy fix with needle & thread), and shipping took 6 days instead of promised 4. Still worth it for the charm — just manage expectations.

Wore it to our weekend farmers’ market stroll — light enough for sunny mornings, but added that perfect layer when clouds rolled in. The dainty floral motif isn’t too fussy, just sweet and timeless. Felt luxe but washed easily (cold, hang-dry). Arrived in 2 days with eco-packaging — even included a reusable drawstring bag! My go-to cardigan now.

Adorable piece — my baby looks like a little spring blossom in it! The fabric is buttery soft against sensitive skin (no itching!), and the open front makes diaper changes a breeze. Sizing runs *just* true — ordered 2T and it fits perfectly with room to grow. Only docked one star because the floral embroidery on the pocket faded slightly after first gentle wash. Still thrilled!

My 4-year-old daughter wore this to her preschool garden day — the floral cardigan matched her sunhat perfectly and stayed put all morning, even during hopscotch! Lightweight but surprisingly warm, and the stitching held up after two washes. Got it on Tuesday, delivered Thursday — no delays, no fuss. Five stars for charm + durability.

So soft and cozy — slipped it on my toddler for story time and she immediately snuggled into the floral trim like it was her favorite blanket! The fit is just right: roomy enough for layering over a tee but not baggy. Shipped super fast (3 days!) and arrived folded neatly with a sweet handwritten note. Absolutely in love — already eyeing the lavender one next! 🌸
