Smocked Thanksgiving - Feast Your Eyes On This!

The trifecta of year end holidays - Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas - is upon us. Each has their charms for different people. Around here, everyone goes all out for Halloween, whether they are kid or adult. Excitement about Christmas hardly needs comment, really. But Thanksgiving, the least flashy of the three, has a surprisingly huge fan base. As to why, I'll get to that later...


For fans of smocked clothing, Royal Child has created the Turkey Smocked Bishop Dress. At last, Thanksgiving gets some sartorial love! The clothing material is green and white check. These Turkeys are about as pretty as you can make them, and the quality of construction is excellent.


Harvest time is not neglected either here at Maison de Belles Choses. We carry cornfield and scarecrow smocked clothing in sleeveless romper, long-sleeve romper, longall, and dress jumper - everyone's outfit preference is covered.


Now for my thoughts on why Thanksgiving is the sleeper holiday: For a lot of people, it lacks the gift-buying pressures of Christmas. The focus is on collecting family and friends for a large feast with delicious food. To be sure, there is a lot of work involved, more for some than others, but still it's worth it. For the "others", lounging on sofas watching the game, drifting in and out of a turkey-induced coma is absolute bliss. At the end, sure there's a clean-up but look what you got in return - a happy, well-fed group of people! Nobody got too sick on candy, and everyone can now look forward to the end of the year festivities. What could be better than that?

Happy Shopping!
