Addie Rose Boutique

You know that bubble gum pink bungalow in the heart of Brookside? Well, if you haven't been inside, you NEED to check it out. I did a short shoot on Monday with the owner of Addie Rose Boutique, Megan Meiners. We shot a few new dresses from the spring line, and a handful of crazy kids decked out in couture :).



I just love this coral colored number. kind of chases away the gray sky blues :)


Who doesn't love a Johnny Cash shirt on a kid? You can see rock star written on his face :)

this was my favorite group shot. kids being kids. I thought it really matched Megan's vibe- eclectic, laid back, and totally fun.

The shop also carries these darling hand sewn onesies (a local artist)

Here's Megan with the store's namesake, her 11 month old Addie Rose.


Some of Megan's favorite lines:
Ella Moss, Rebecca Beeson, Sweetees, Diane Samandi, Citizens, Hale Bob


Stop in and pick up something new for spring!
