Summer is coming pretty fast! When we think of summer, we think of a cold glass of lemonade. Our fit tip this week is to help your child make the transition to a healthy summer by switching from sugary sodas or powdered drink mixes to good old fashioned water. Water makes up about 80% of the brain and is an essential element in neurological transmissions. Poor hydration adversely affects a child's mental performance and learning ability. This is an easy fix...grab some reusable water containers at your nearest discount store. Wash them up and have a special cabinet for them. Easy for you or the kids to grab, fill with ice and cold water. You can even pre-fill them with water and store them in the fridge. Much cheaper than buying cases of bottled water. Grab and go!

When you drink is also important. If you're going to sports practice, a game, or just working out or playing hard, drink water before, during, and after playing. Don't forget your water bottle. You can't play your best when you're thinking about how thirsty you are!

With summer coming, it's time to visit SophiasStyle.com children's clothing store for the latest in girls summer clothes. You can find the cutest girls swimwear at discount prices.

We've made the choice in my family to cut out sodas and only drink water and milk. I'll keep you updated on our process. Share your stories, tips and questions by Clicking here.

How to Take Great Holiday Photos | Christmas Dresses

Jen

As many of you parents know children grow up so quickly. It may seem like only yesterday you were holding him or her in your arms, but from baby to toddler and toddler to child time seems to pass in a blink of an eye. They grow and change and although we have no control over this, we can hold on to these memories in pictures. These pictures will last and last and create memories for many generations to come. The holidays are a perfect time of year to take memorable photographs of your little ones in their adorable Christmas Dresses and holiday smiles!

We have all had those nightmare picture taking experiences, suddenly our little angel turns into a crying uncooperative creature. But taking pictures doesn’t have to be a complicated ordeal to achieve beautiful results. Whether you are taking the photo for a special occasion or you are snapping shots for fun, here are some good tips that will help you take great pictures of children during the holidays and all year round.

1. Location Location Location!

Find a setting that is relaxed and doesn’t have too many distractions. A fun place to take pictures might be a tree farm, pumpkin patch, or the park. Outdoors is always easier for lighting and bright color. When taking indoors try to be near a window for soft window lighting…very nice! When taking those holiday photos of your little ones wearing their Christmas Dresses in front of the tree set your camera on the night setting, or put your camera on a tripod and set the shutter speed a little slower than normal to catch the sparkle of the Christmas lights and your little ones eyes.

2. Timing is Everything

Always keep in mind the time of day. Try to shoot photographs within one hour after sunrise and inside of an hour before sunset. The natural lighting is warm and soft during these times. You might also consider looking at the light yourself to determine how it will affect your picture. Is the light flat? Where is the light coming from? Are there harsh shadows? Overcast days are said to be the best days to photograph on, the intensity of the film increases, therefore making the colors in your prints and slides look more intense. Avoid taking pictures in the middle of the day, the light at this time is much to bright and will create muted colors and uneven skin tones. Also be sue to set your camera to the appropriate setting. You can find information on your camera in the owners manual.

3. Get Close

The biggest and most common mistake people make is not getting close enough to the subject that they are trying to capture. Don't be afraid to step up and fill the entire frame with the most important information. Carefully compose the scene and wait for the perfect opportunity to take your picture. Don't rush through this, remember you are creating priceless photographs.

4. What’s your point of view?
A simple change in perspective will help you create the best photo. Try shooting from a higher angle, this will help you stay away from obstacles that may have a negative effect on your work. Remember to look at the background and edges of your frame. There’s nothing worse than a great picture of your darling in her Christmas Dress with a pole or candy cane growing out of their head! Also, if you are taking a candid or a spontaneous picture, you may be able to get a better angle by moving either to the right or left. For a more natural view of you little one try kneeling down.

5. More is better!

Most of the time you won't get the exact shot or pose on the first try. I recommend that you take several photographs, in different lighting, or other changes to make sure you get a good one. When taking pictures of multiple kids someone is bound to blink or pull out a funny face so take extras that way you have options. The more pictures you take the more practice you will have and as the saying goes. Practice makes Perfect!

6. Time to get ready

Be certain your little one is comfortable. There is nothing worse than stuffing your child into an uncomfortable piece of clothing. This will set the stage for the photo session and it may become the reason for fussing, whining and non participation. Make sure the tags are removed and the fabric is soft, that way there will be no rubbing or discomfort. Try SophiasStyle.com for a huge selection of comfortable and cute girls clothing and Christmas Dresses. Also have toys and snacks ready. Keeping small children’s hands busy or a small snack often keeps the child content and gives you more opportunities for unique photos

Your on your way! You have learned the simplicity of how to take great pictures of children. Have fun and be creative and you will truly make memories one picture at a time.

It's Prom Time! | Special Occasion Dresses for Girl's Prom at Sophia's Style Boutique

Jen

Buy Special Occasion Dresses Direct from SophiasStyle.com

It's Prom time again! The dresses, the corsage, the shoes...the hair! All of the fun glamorous things that make up the perfect prom outfit. Alot of the times the little girls feel left out. They see their big sisters or cousins getting all "dolled up" for prom and then they go off to their rooms to make up their own perfect prom night. Why not throw a junior prom night at your very own "junior-junior" prom at your house. Planning would be simple, but make sure to start early! You want to make sure you give parents about 3 weeks notice so they can have the perfect outfit picked out. SophiasStyle.com has the perfect little girls dresses for this occasion. The bonus is that you can re-purpose these for Easter, weddings, family functions, etc.

Invitations - simple print out on the computer. Give the nudge to some of the Dads or big brothers to be their "dates". Have the event be just 2 hrs or so. Enough to play a few songs, have some hors d'oeuvres and take pictures. Remind parents to bring their cameras so they can capture all of the smiles and moments from their first big dance. A great idea would be to ask the parents to bring in a picture from their high school prom. What a great conversation starter for the parents to remember "when".

Music - easy! Download some music onto your computer and play it. Of course, make sure that there is a couple of Jonas Brothers or High School Musical songs on there. Nothing too loud or hard for them to understand.

Decorations - make it cheesy! Crepe paper, balloons. If you can find a disco ball to hook up that would be great. Make sure to have an area set up for picture taking. Offer to take the pictures with your digital camera and send copies to the parents. Make sure to get a picture of each girl and their "date". A group picture would also be fun.

Snacks - punch, cookies..simple, easy and a crowd pleaser. Make sure that you have plenty of napkins and that it's not a dark red punch.

You can make it a fun way to bring in spring and celebrate those special occasions with your little girl and her friends. Remember, SophiasStyle.com girls clothing store has a large selection of little girls dresses. We have everything from formal dresses, accessories, shoes...everything you need to make this "prom" special for your little girl.

I know that Punxsutawney Phil, "Seer of Seers", "Prognosticator of all Prognosticators", etc said that we were in for 6 more weeks of winter. I am hoping that he is wrong, but that does give you plenty of time to shop for girls clothes for spring. When the cold wind is blowing, how nice is it to sit back and think of warmer days and fun spring girls clothes? I know..it's hard to think Capri sets, swimsuits or short sets when the windchill is below zero and you can hear the ice pelting the window. Just think, we're closer to that spring season than you think. Sophia's Style Boutique has so many different styles of girls clothes ranging from the most casual to the most formal. I was able to find a pretty extensive wardrobe for all of my niece's from newborn to my older plus size girl. I found them each a swimsuit, Capri outfit and a fancy party dress for our annual Mother's Day brunch.



Be sure to make this "down time" productive by visiting Sophia's Style Boutique for your girls clothes. Each time I visit I find something new and their new Steal Of The Day is great. Great boutique girls clothes at discount prices. You can't beat it!
