I don’t know if word has gotten around yet… But for the 435 Art Fair this year, Denise and I worked nearly every evening on these EPIC displays for the shopping room in the back. Yes, I must describe them as epic. I loved them. I loved everything about that room when Art Fair was in the air. But now we are a workshop again. The leftover Ellies, Big Ruffles, and all the other pieces have cleared out and been put in their new spaces. And holy big shipments! Not a moment to waste and the entire back room is filled with Fall! We’ve officially gotten in all of the Fall 2012 goodness from our lovely friends in China. I’m so excited. I want to rip the boxes apart and roll around in all the prettiness… Can’t wait for you guys to see.
Anyway, back to those Art Fair displays… The office girls, I think it might have been Lynette, had this really great idea to auction off the displays and then donate the proceeds to Habitat for Humanity! Genius right?? I thought so. Only thing is, we have 3 displays that did not get a single bid! Now that just cannot be because they were lacking in the cute department. No way, if you saw the piles of clothing in front of me right now I think you’d agree. Regardless, this is great news for you. I would love to do a blog contest and give away the 3 displays we have left; Sweet Shop, Explore, and Summertime.
So why don’t you leave a comment telling me what Matilda Jane means to you in 5 sentences or less? Consider it the very, very miniature version of our good ol’ 435 contest! I know you probably want to smack me for limiting how much you can write, but I really want to be able to read every comment!!!!!! And if they are chapter books I don’t think that will be possible ; ) Also I’d like you to include which display you are interested in! I listed the size of the clothes we used for each below:
Sizing:
Sweetshop – five size 2 items, and two size 6 items.
Explore- three size 2 items, and four size 8 items.
Summertime- seven size 2 items, and two size 4 items
LOVE, SAM
Ps. I couldn’t find a photo of the Explore display!!! Sorry guys, as always I’d like to say cuteness is guaranteed!

Interested in Sweetshop size 6!!!!
Thank you!!
Matilda Jane is a way to show off my daughter’s bright and beautiful personality through the clothing she wears. It is a way for her to shine. It is a way for her to show her fun side. Thank you all for the hard work you do to bring such fun, bright pieces of art to our daughters!
Lots of fun:)
Lots of sweetness:)
Lots of photos:)
Lots of beauty:)
Lots of smiles for MiMi:)
Sweetshop is my pick.
Sweetshop for sure! you guys rock, I wish I would have bid! It was so nutso.
ok…
In the 4 years I’ve been buying Matilda Jane I have made some life long friends, have more stories to tell that I could fill a book, and it would have to be a comedy, because I’m the resident goof. The closeness I feel to you guys, esp Sammers, Denise, and Kayla, I feel more like a friend than a customer. Long after we stop buying Matilda Jane there will be a place in my heart for you loves! I’ll attend 435 long after my kids outgrow your clothing! FRIENDSHIP!!!!!
Sweet. Innocent. Unique. Treasures.
MJC gives me the opportunity to help my toddler express her vibrant personality in a fun and unique way that captures her energy, curiosity, vibrancy, and quirkyness! She’s a firecracker and MJC helps her shine! (The Summer Display)
Matilda Jane means a smile on my beautiful young daughter and everyone else around here. Yes, I admit, I am not a poet; words cannot explain what Matilda Jane means to us. (summertime)
not another entry but could I have said long after one more time!?! HA! DOY!
matilda jane means to me that my spunky, outrageous 6 year (who wears size
old can wear funky, out of the ordinary clothing. the close shine just as much as she does and believe me she shines! i love how we are able to pass down the cuteness to our friends and family too. i love seeing my daughters outgrown MJ on new little kids.
Matilda Jane to me is love. Love from Denise and the 435 girls in the fabric and design. Love in production and shipping until it’s delivered to my door in beautiful tissue paper. Love- every morning when my Addy points at her ’tilda Jane “dwesses” and twirls around the room. And finally, love, because of the generosity they show to customers, photographers, foundations, adoptions, and charities—Love that is undescribible!!!
Thanks MJ Gals (& guys) <3
Summertime
ohh fun…maybe I can win this one
Okay here it goes….Matilda jane means a lot to me, but a few words to describe it are, unique, beautiful, fun, sweet and a little adventerous. These words not only describe the clothing that my daughters and I love to wear, but also the friendships that MJ has created through chance meetings on the street to blogs and facebook pages. I truly do not know of another clothing company that can offer such loyalty and companinonship all rolled in one, but Im glad I found it and have those like me who enjoy all of what Matilda Jane has to offer as well. So, I would love any of the above “shops” I have a daughter in 2s and 4s and one in 6s and 8s.Thank you!!
Matilda Jane means to me sweet innocence, laughter and fun! My daughter’s eyes just sparkle in her “pretty clothes” and I know that every penny that I spend on them goes to a company who cares about people and this great big world that we live in. I feel like it helps me be a part of MJ’s effort to help so many in need! Thank you for brining that to our family. I would LOVE to win the Explore set or Summertime Set! Actually, I don’t even care what set it is! lol
MJC means to me: Excitement on my daughter’s face!
Forgot to post display: Summertime
Matilda Jane means to me that my daughter will be able to sparkle in a crowd. Matilda Jane allows her to stand out and her spirit and energy to show through by the beautiful clothes that she wears. It allows her to be cute, comfortable and stylish all at once. She is the only girl with 3 older brothers Matilda Jane allows me her mom to finally see what ruffles and lace is all about.
What Matilda Jane Means to me by Kaitlyn’sMom….
Matilda Jane means beauty like none other. From the way my daughter feels and her eye’s light up when she’s wearing beautiful clothing, to the attention she gets when people stop and ask “who made that?!” I love the friendships that Matilda Jane creates and the common bond amonst other mom’s who dress their girls in MJ! But most of all, I love how much Matilda Jane give back to others…a company like no other company!
Matilda Jane is simply “unique beauty.” When children put on these clothes, imaginations start to run wild. I love seeing the little girls on the website wearing these fabulous outfits, and I would love even more to see my two little girls wearing them!
~Explore~
Opps forgot to post that the Summertime display!

We are interested in the summertime display
Matilda Jane is not only the most adorable clothes I can find for my daughter, but we also have two and a half years worth of memories in the clothes! I started “collecting” pieces for my daughter in January 2009, when I was 21 weeks pregnant and we had just found out she was a girl! She was wearing the Heather tank and Hotline diaper cover the first time she crawled, she wore the Pepper knot last year for her first birthday, and the Stephanie ruffles the first day she walked. These are pieces I will save forever!
Matilda Jane has created a sisterhood in my life, A common bond between moms. I love how MJ has brought ease to my life…my daughter feels beautiful and carefree in her “favorite” clothes. MJ has given my daughter the freedom and confidence to choose who she wants to be. We would loooooove Sumertime!Thanks Matilda Jane
Matilda Jane is only one of its kind; not like anything else. It embodies a vision of sweetness and creates an emotion of mutual affection amongst strangers. I have friends I would have never met without you, Matilda Jane. Thank you!
I LOVE MJ Clothing. First saw it on the daughter of a photographer in my hometown. My daughter loves to get dressed up daily and MJ is her favorite! The sizes in the sweetshop or the Summertime would be perfect for my two very girly girls! Thanks for blessing us with your beautiful pieces!!!!
Matilda Jane was introduced to my by my daughter and grandaughter and now I have a closet of my own Matilda Jane clothing. The clothing is hip, b ut not funky. I can dress it up or dress it down, and I am CERTAIN each time I dress in MJ, I will get a compliment. You ladies ROCK!!!
Any of them would be FABULOUS! But Sweetshop has my eye
On phase to describe what Matilda Jane means to me is Joy of Life. Where things are simple and sweet. Back to a day where people matter!! Thank you for your timeless style. It reminds of a lazy summer day with lemonade and just enjoying life!! Sweetshop
Matilda Jane to me means, first and foremost, that I get to keep my little girl MY little girl for a little while longer. She just turned 9 last week and is dipping her toes into the trendier boutique items, but still loves her MJC. She is also at an age where she can understand the charitable nature behind the MJ brand. MJ keeps her comfey and makes us both smile-A LOT!
Explore display please!
Sorry – I am interested in the Summertime display!
What MJ means to me? Getting together with friends and talking for hours on end about clothing. Only Matilda Jane does that for us. It also brings us together once a year from all over the country just to hang together. No other product does that for us.
Matilda Jane means a smiling, dancing, twirling daughter. People stopping us wherever we go to say, “Your daughter is adorable, I love her outfit.” Your clothing makes my daughter a strong, confident, two year old, who loves to laugh and is happy to show off her beautiful clothing. And Matilda Jane is such an awesome part of the Fort Wayne community with everything you do! We would love anything in a size 2! Thanks!
Mj means the hot ups man knocking on my door and my daughter face lighting up asking , “is that my Matilda JEAN clothes?” Mj also means your daughter standing out in the crowd and mother’s asking, “where did you get those adorable dress?” Mj is truely the first hobby my daughter and I have together. I’m so blessed to have discovered mj and I thank everyone at the 435 for making the moments unforgettable!!!
Matilda Jane is a twirl in my daughters steps that lights up the room. It is a sweet, unique, stunning youth and beauty that encompasses a lady of any age. Matilda Jane is a memory of how little girls should look and feel each and every day. Children, both boys and girls, are the truest gift, and Matilda Jane wraps each one to perfection. It is a special day, a fun day when we are wearing Matilda Jane.
I would love and adore any of the three displays. My daughter is a 2 now but will grow into the others. Thanks for all that you do, and for taking the time to read my thoughts. Fondly, Heather
FUN! Summertime:
Matilda Jane means that happiness, rainbows, butterflies, & true friendship still exist in this sometimes dark world. It also represents innocence & childhood to me.
What does Matilda Jane mean to me?!
Smiles, laughter and Happiness from my girls!
Confidence and comfortableness from me!
Friendships and growing relationships that I’ve made from other Matilda Jane crazy moms!
The feelings of being in a exclusive club, that not just anybody can be in!
I’m interested in any of the the displays really! Everything is so pretty and all our sizes!!
Matilda Jane means a huge smile on Sage’s face.
Matilda Jane means a brand that fits for SO much longer than any other brand.
Matilda Jane means a company that defines what it means to give back.
Matilda Jane means pure femininity.
Matilda Jane means bliss.
(I am interested in the Explore…my daughter and her best friend wear size 8 and I have 2 nieces who are turning 2 in the next month who could rock the size 2 pieces!)
Matilda Jane makes my girl smile. That is what I think about when she gets to wear her few items we have. She lights up, which these days isn’t easy to do when your parents are divorcing. So to me, Matilda Jane is a BIG SMILE
My girl is a size 8, so explore
Matilda Jane means spontaneous smiles..
Seeing my beautiful daughter in MJC brings an instant smile, she walks in the room & her father smiles, the ups package arrives & both my daughter & I grin & giggle while unwrapping. But the best part is when strangers look at my girl in her unique outfits and smile with out even realizing it, Matilda Jane smiles are contagious.
I would LOVE the explore or sweet shop display.
5 sentences??? That one doesn’t count!
Heart, courage, compassion and spunk! I see all that in this company… and I gain courage from it. A women… a mother… seeing her dream and going for it. My girls feel great wearing MJ and I feel great putting them in it! Not only do I see my girls looking darling, I see what a woman and mom can do with her passion and courage. It inspires me.
( Summertime or Sweetshop)
Thank you!!!!
Matilda Jane is only one of its kind; not like anything else. It embodies a vision of sweetness and creates an emotion of mutual affection amonst strangers. I have friends I would have never met without you, Matilda Jane. Thank you!! (SweetShop or Summertime)
I would love a chance for sweetshop!!
Matilda Janes means never leaving the house without hearing, “OMG look at their outfits,” or “WHERE did you get those CLOTHES!” It also takes my photography to a new level, I will admit that I have set up a whole shoot around a Matilda Jane dress. It means I can order one size for both of my girls to wear differently, saving me money and giving our wardrobe more variety. It is the only clothing worthy of compliments from the husband, and the only outfits I have gotten him to sit for a fashion show. It’s innocent and sweet, while still being modern and stylish, when my kids are grown and no longer allowing me to dress them, it’s what I miss most.
I totally forgot to bid on the one I wanted…and I was confused as to how to do it. if it was piece by piece or the whole display.
Matilda Jane is a way to brighten my day. I find I buy the clothes for myself more than my dd. although she is the one that makes them look so adorable. I love the way you combine fabrics and the joy it is to share them with others as well. thanks for being such a great company to work with!
my dd is size 2!!
How about 5 words? Fabulously Unique, quality & timeless style. I am DESPERATE to introduce some MJ to our boring smocked preppy area via my photography clients on my website. We need some MJ down here! The Explore is my fave
~g
Matilda Jane to me is inspirational cuteness. When they wear it, and are super cute and comfy my kiddos are inspired to smile a little brighter, laugh a little louder from the heart and gosh darn it, that cuteness just inspires me to hug em and love on them all the more!
I’d be honored and delighted to win Sweetshop as it would have items in the right sizes for both my girls! Thank you.
Sweetshop;) Thanks!
Matilda Jane makes me smile.
Matilda Jane gave me a world of pretty I never knew existed.
Matilda Jane keeps me coming back for more.
Matilda Jane gives me amazing memories.
Most of all, Matilda Jane gave me everlasting friendships.
Oh my what a sweet surprise! I just love how whimsical and adorable MJ clothes are! Love how my oldest dd says “momy I am a princess” as she twirls in her dresses. Last sentence….completely chereish and love the friendships I have made since discovering MJ!
(Summertime collection)
Matilda Jane brings together comfort, style and timeless patterns. It reminds me of my youth – sunny days, rolling clouds in a blue sky and wildflowers in the field. Looking at the patterns and feel of the fabrics makes me think of happy times with family and making even more memories. Matilda Jane is about building tradition.
Matilda Jane means to me Be yourself, wear it proudly. Have fun being Girly. And a little corky too.
Display : sweetshop size 2
Oops! Sweetshop please
and I meant sweet shop! Sorry
For me Matilda Jane means alot of things, but most of all happiness. Through all the friendships I have made over our love of your gorgeous clothing and the good times we have when we get together for 435. And also through the kindness and generosity that you show with your thoughtful giveways, the “share the love” campaigns and the Habitat donations. Its amazing to see how people can pass some of those same qualities along to each other. It was so sweet to see a close friend of mine bring a beautful dress from last year’s Art Fair (one that she could have chose to sell for alot on ebay) with her this year, only to say she brought it in hopes of starting a “traveling” dress to share amongst a group of us with younger girls, it all just makes me smile
Why we love MJ:
Every time I look at you, my heart misses a beat.
You bring out the best in me.
Just a sight of you lifts my up spirits.
Your innocence makes me forget all shady things of this world.
You’re simply irresistible.
**Sweetshop or Summertime**
Love you SAM!
I love that it is designed by a mom and therefore the kiddilets can move in them (and look good while being a tom boy-who says you cant climb a tree or wrestle a calf in a dress) The fabrics are so shabby chic that they play right to my taste. But the best part I think, given that we dont know where sooo much of the things we buy come from, is that they are mostly MADE IN THE USA! To help our fellow Americans and boost the hole we have gotten into, the best we can do is buy American and buy from smaller comapnies, one added bonus they actually care about customers too!
Summertime!
MJC represents everything that is good about childhood: WONDERMENT, JOY, INNOCENCE, FUN, SILLINESS, FREEDOM and INDIVIDUALITY. I love it. I also enjoy the adult items, allowing me to go from dumpy & frumpy to hip & unique in an instant. I also feel proud to say the company is in my hometown! (Explore)
Matilda Jane to me…means the start of the most beautiful closet my Olivia ever had. It means no more clothes for momma, just an empty piggy bank! It means giving, sharing, amazing, happy, beautiful, unique, special, generous, kind-hearted, twirling, giggiling, spunky, free-spirited. But most of all, it reminds me of all you amazing and generous ladies and all of the hard work you accomplish on a daily basis just for the simple reason of putting a smile on so many thousands of little babes and their mommies!!!!
Matilda Jane…well to me it means making my daughter feel beautiful, confident,and according to her like a princess. I was a very insecure girl growing up and when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter I decided I wanted to try my best to make sure she feels confident in herself and walks with her head held high. My daughter beams when she wears her Matilda Jane and she definately doesn’t let anyone or anything stand in her way. I want to thank YOU for helping my daughter feel secure in herself so that my bad memories turn into positive visions for my daughter’s future. I love the Sweetshop!!
*Explore* MJ means to me that my daughter won’t have the same clothes as the little girl next to her! Individuality! Also reminds me to pay it forward!!
It’s all about the SweetShop! Being Nana to four beautiful granddaughters who LOVE MJC so much they ask to wear it every day and they won’t wear anything else! MJC makes my granddaughters feel very special when wearing it … sweet, adorable, unique, memorable, classy, timeless … all that comes from the heart.
This is going to sound strange, but to me MJ holds the fruit of the spirit….love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.

To me matilda jane means more than the cuteness and great quality of xlothin you create for us. I mean I won’t deny my daughter is the beat dressed 2 year old I know thanks to mj….but what I love even more than the clothing? The women behind it. All the donating you do… All the giving, all of the caring, the sharing, the loving. The intamate details about your lives that make me feel a loyalty to you even when a hundred people complain about not being able to get items. I will always be a loyal fan because of who your are….and what you do for others. Plus the clothing are fantastic!
Forgot to write I am interested in the explore display
Matilda Jane is like being a pop star! Walking in with my 3 girls everyone turns to stare. They run to us wanting to know where, when, and how did I get such cute wonderful UNIQUE clothing. Matilda Jane means alot to us, we love everything it is and is going to be!!!!!!!!!!!
Matilda Jane is the exact kind of clothes that fit my daughter’s personality. Fun, unique, and so different from everything else. And it helps that she reaches for Matilda Jane in her closet most of the time! We would love the Summertime display but any of them are great!
the first picture was the one I was going to bid on…i think it had the size 2 and 4 items in it…so it was the summertime display…Denise you are so generous and kind to do this. h
I just posted but forgot to list what collection I am most interested in…..it’s Summertime.
Matilda Jane signifies the young and innocence to my daughter. The genuine sweetness that oozes from her. It means that a smile is brought to my lil girl’s face when sliding into a twirly dress. Matilda Jane extends beyond clothes for my lil girl, it means friendships formed along the way in a world where we might not normally meet. Thank you for your clothes!! (Summertime)
Matilda Jane to me, means that my daughter is going to look like the little girl that she is. She will not only be dressed age appropriate, but will look beautiful while doing so. Matilda Jane is sweet, classy and is full of heart. Matilda Jane is LOVE! Love for our daughters, ourselves as mothers and for others with the charity that you do.
Matilda Jane means letting my little girls be a little bit different and unique, but still look like little girls! It means my oldest loving her Matilda Jane dresses so much that we argue at bedtime that they are NOT pj’s, because she wants to wear them all the time! And it is the excitement myself, my little Olivia and my little Charlie feel when there is a box on our front step with the MJC sticker on it!
I like the sweetshop display! Thanks for all you do!
Oops..forgot to add that we would love the chance for the Sweetshop display:)
My grandbabies look so sweet in Matilda Jane. So trying for the Sweetshop Collection here! This grandmama only had one child… a boy. So I get so excited to be able to dress my grandbabies in anything MJ! Thank you Sam and everyone at MJ for this opportunity!
Oops, forgot to add Sweetshop!! Thanks.
I love MJ because it’s so unique and because it’s CLASSY! I do not like to dress my daughters like they are teenagers…those years will be here soon enough and I don’t want to push it!
ALL of your stuff is precious and I love my “mom” clothes as well! I am thankful that your items are affordable and I love your blogs and fb posts! EVERYTIME we wear our MJ we get lots of compliments…and that makes a girl feel really good!! 
xoxo
ps, explore
Matilda Jane means a chance to keep our little girls for a little while longer. A chance to keep them little and sweet. A chance to keep their innocence and a chance to teach them kindness. Thank you for allowing us to keep our little girls! I am interested in Summertime!!
I absolutely love Matilda Jane clothing for my girls because as soon as they put on one of your beautiful outfits they instantly feel so good about theselves. They are constantly showered with compliments on how cute they are. In a world that can be so cruel we can’t do enough as parents to help boost our girls confidence…..and the beautiful Matilda Jane clothes are such a confidence booster. I would love any of the gorgeous displays but especially the summertime since it works with my girls sizes!
I discovered MJC almost a year ago but didn’t make it to a trunk show until September 2010. Since then, I’ve been hooked. I of course love the clothes but I really love how they make my girls feel. They literally beam ear to ear when they wear their MJ’s! They seem so proud, confident and pretty – so in many ways, MJC is helping me raise children that will be successful and happy in life. My girls love to explore, so I would like to put a bid in for the explorer lot. Thank you for giving me this chance and thank you for MJC!
Wow, where to start! Mj means fun and fabulous clothing from an unbelievable company! I’ve never seen a business so generous to it’s customers. Most of all Matilda Jane inspires me to be a better person and to “pay it forward” to others just as MJ does. Thanks so much for being you!!!!
Ok. It didn’t post like I typed it but above post spells Matilda Jane in an acrostic poem:)
I sometimes get so annoyed at these comments at how mad people get over cart troubles, and how matilda jane changes their lives. Matilda jane clothing does not change my girls lives..if it does I am putting far too much thought into what I dress them in and far too less time as a mother. I just love the timelessness of MJ so someday when they look at special pics they will see the timelessness of them as well, and perhaps pass them to their girls. I can’t afford much seeing as how I only own one piece, but its ‘special’ and doesn’t every girl love something special once in a while?
would love the Explore!
Matilda Jane has the most adorable clothing I’ve ever seen. The fabric and patterns are wonderful, just LOVE everything!!! -Explore would be the one for me, thanks much!
Matilda Jane means my daughter(s) will do lots of twirling on the days they wear it. Matilda Jane means getting together with friends and making new outfits. Matilda Jane means my daughters will still look like the sweet, innocent girls they are. And Matilda Jane means that everyone in my house, except my husband(teens, tots, and myself) can share something as simple as sitting around the computer and pointing out all the things we would love to wear!
The Sweetshop display is beautiful!
Matilda Jane means… Happiness-I love every piece for it’s uniqueness and for the joy of watching my oldest little lady smile with every twirl and compliment in her Matilda Jane. Generosity-for all the kindness you spread that sets you apart from those who try to duplicate, and for that it also means, Loyalty- for my daughters and I will always be loyal to YOU!!! Heather, Morgan, & Lynden
Any display would be awesome!! My youngest is wearing 18mo.-2 and my oldest is wearing a 6. Thanks MJ!!!

P.s. Oops forgot to write which display, I like Sweetshop but would be in awe to receive any of them:)
Matilda Jane means so many different things to me. It means dressing my daughter in a style that matches her personality, sweet, sassy, spunky, and a whole lot of spice. It also has brought so many friendships into my life. I have met many wonderful and caring Mama’s who understand my MJ craziness. We bonded over cute clothes but over time have made friendships that are stronger and mean more to me than they will ever know. Thank you all at MJ for that
ps Enter us for Sweetshop please
To me Matilda Jane is so much more then beautiful clothes. We increase the smiles on peoples faces every time they see these little ones in there soooo cute clothes. Matilda Jane to me also means giving, I always feel good knowing my purchases help others and that does not happen with other companies. Matilda Jane also means family, I get to see my daughters smile and twirl and play together in there MJC and know they are making awesome memories!
Matilda Jane means PURE BEAUTY, uniqueness, HAPPINESS and EXPLORATION. I would choose the Explore display because exploration is such a big part of my daughters daily activities and feeling BEAUTIFUL while EXPLORING makes her HAPPY. Exploring and Investigating and feeling UNIQUE is such an important part of growing up!
To me, Matilda Jane represents my daughter. She is the perfect mix of fun, originality, grace, silliness, and beauty. She puts together the craziest outfits, and if it is MJ, somehow it just all ends up looking like it all goes together! Matilda Jane also means friendship, because my English department at the high school where I teach is full of talented, fashionable ladies who all love your clothes. Oh, and Matilda Jane is also a treat for me, and I can always use one of those!
My choice would be sUMMerTiMe, because it has to be my favorite time of year!
Matilda jane to me is a big smile from my littles ones. Compliments everywhere we go:) A company with a big heart that mades beautiful girls and super comfy mommy clothes.
Summertime
Unique comfy heaven sent goodness
Explore please!
I have to say that Matilda Jane reminds me of my sweet grandma. We all called her Nanny. She stayed up all night many nights sewing dresses, coats, and warm pajamas for us. She made us feel so special with her creations and Matilda Jane makes my little daughter, Emma, feel that way too. She is a size 2 so I think the summertime or sweetshop would work best for us. Thank you so much!
hmmm…Matilda Jane means standing out in a crowd…who doesn’t notice the girl wearing MJC??! It means my daughter will will be able to dance and twirl in her clothes one moment yet be comfortable enough to run, jump, and roll around in the grass the next moment! It truly lets each girl show off her personality because it is so versatile…you can mix, match, and layer items depending on your mood! Finally, it is inspiring. When I am in the fabric store I am constantly thinking…that would make a cute knot, ellie, ruffles, etc!!
I forgot which display we would love! ugh, sorry! Sweetshop! sounds great. I was unable to find much for my older dd. My littlest got so lucky. Thanks!
Matilda Jane, to me, is about sharing. Photo shares with my family, sharing knots with my nieces, sharing thoughts with friends and sharing ideas about what to put together. It is about fun, twirly dresses and special days with shiny shoes, a day in the city or a trip to the farm. It is about quirky little extras, funky buttons and little touches that make people stop and chat. And yesterday it was about a man asking me WHERE my daughter got her pants – a man! LOL. (And I’d go with Summertime based on sizing – but all the displays are gorgeous!)
Forgot to say I am interested in any display!
Matilda Jane means a special dress, outfit or bag for me and my daughter. Each time we wear MJC.. being able to spread- via word of mouth about your pretty clothes. It means being proud of what’s in our closets!!! And I don’t feel that way about any other clothing brand. Thank you. Interested in Summertime.
I just recently found Matilda jane and I absolutely love it! It is unique in everyway! Thankyou for giving us a brand that is not only adorable But well worth every penney!
Matilda Jane means to me that my little girl can feel pretty everyday. She can whirl around like a princess or go to the beach and make all the heads turn! Everyday is a pretty day when wearing her Matilda Jane!
What Matilda Jane means to me …..
It means dressing my daughter in the most adorable clothes ever. It really has become a hobby of mine, i can stay up at night with my mind racing at what to put together the next day, the possibilites endless. I really love “doing” this for my daughter.
To love what you do and feel it matters how could anything be more fun? – Katherine Graham (one of my fav quotes)
I would take any of the display’s but if I had to choose just one & only one it would be (Summertime)
What Matilda Jane means to me: personality in cotton! I love that MJC has so many vibrant colors for my daughter’s bright disposition, and pastels for those laid back days. I love the soft fabrics that just feel good against your skin, and make you feel like you can take on the world with your head held high. I love that they are unique but not outlandish, dressy but not stuffy, and comfortable but not drab. Matilda Jane is girlie, yet tasteful, and I know I can dress my daughters in these clothes for years to come without worrying about them. (I am interested in the summertime display:))
Matilda Jane is togetherness and community. It is like taking the best part of yourself, your inner self and wearing it on the outside. It is beautiful and inspiring and allows little girls to be little girls. It is a conversation starter and a friendship maker. It is all of us.
Matilda Jane(to me)means excitement, anticipation, and sometimes a whole lot of crazy…but it’s more than ok because in the end, Matilda Jane leads to good friends and lots of memories
Matilda Jane is a unique everlasting style for my girls to wear for years and years. It’s kind of like a first love to me. When I see many many of your designs for the first time, I get that spark in my eye, and my heart skips a beat! My girls feel special and comfortable in their own skin, when they put your beautiful clothes on(and so do I).
We love you now and always, Matilda Jane!
I would love anything from the Explore or Summertime collections. Thanks for the chance to win some beautiful clothes!
Matilda Jane means…..Pure,Simple,Joyful,Happiness with SWEET Gooey LOVE oozing from inside and out !!
I love “Sweet Shoppe”! (can you tell??)
Jen
(and any of the sets would work for us
)
Matilda Jane to me is the perfect mix of beauty, fun, smiles, uniqueness, generosity, laughter, friendships, silly and cute all rolled up into one. I am so grateful to have discovered Matilda Jane and owe MJC so many thanks for all the friendships it has brought into my life. I’d be happy with any of the displays, but if I had to pick just one, I guess I would go with ‘Summertime’…I love to be surprised!
oh and I would need the Explore display.
Kyles is an 8 and I have a good friend that just had ANOTHER baby and could use the 2′s to be handed down.
To me, Matilda Jane means teaching my girls that it’s okay to be unique, creative and individual. It’s so important in these times to be confident in what you believe in and who you are as a person. Matilda Jane is the epitome of those characteristics. My 4 year old daughter loves wearing her MJ and it makes me happy to see her happy. Thank you Matilda Jane!
(We can use any of the sizes listed, I have a newborn and 4 yr old!
My wonderful wife and my bautiful princess adore Matilda Jane. I think the best thing for me is that they gain a certain confidence when they love the clothes they are in. I don’t like necessarily seeing the invoices, but it’s all worth it when we dress up for church or for family gatherings–somewhere where photos are going to be taken and they have coordinated patterns in their outfits and are ready to go! Matilda Jane is beautiful, but put one of my girls in an outfit, and it’s breathtaking!
Summertime or Explore, please
Matilda Jane provides us all (old,young,big,small) with one BIG package of… Confidence, Cuteness, Excitement, Friendships, Inspiration, Quality, Fun, Comfort, Beauty, Creative, Laughter, Memories, Bonds, Whimsy, Daydreams, Teaches us lessons on sharing the love & paying it forward, Addiction…but the GOOD/Healthy kind! Matilda Jane just gives me that warm fuzzy feeling in my gut & feel good feeling knowing I’m purchasing from an AMAZING family!! (Have size 4-8′s here…so going with the “Explore” Display)
To me Matilda Jane is pure, genuine, happiness. My girls get so excited to put on their MJ and they are always so happy and smiling when they wear it. When I put on my MJ I instantly feel happier about who I am…even with my extra…”fluff”! : )
I’d be interested in the Sweetshop display.
Oh and Lily would look pretty in “sweet shop, size 2!”..
Matilda Jane means knowing that my little peanut is going to be beautiful, comfortable, happy and just herself wearing it! It means that I’m buying from a caring, generous and charitable company! It also means that my daughter looks so stinkin cute that Daddy can’t even complain that her closet is overtaking his!
Summertime is perfect!
Matilda Jane …it’s what every little girl should be made of! It’s about all of the love, thoughtfulness and hope that is put into each and every piece of clothing, just like the love from a mother’s heart. It means giving each child the ability to be who she wants to be and knowing at the same time she is giving back, back to the people who have unknowingly inspired her life. It’s about each time you go to get something out of the closet, you automatically reach for the Matilda Jane because it not only puts a smile on your face, but everyone around you that sees you as well! And it means not ever having to worry about not feeling good about what you wear because it takes you from childhood to adulthood with that same wonderful style!
If chosen (and oh how I hope I am! ) I am interested in the summertime display! And I’d like to thank you just for being you!
MJC means happpiness, smiles, caring, giving, and beauty! I am interested in Explore!!!
For me, Matilda Jane is a chance to be inspired – a chance to look beyond the repetitive & mundane. The brand is inspirational not only from a clothing perspective, but in everything represented – the photography, home decor, blogging, decorating, and event planning. I love how the ladies at Matilda Jane just seem to look at everything with a fresh eye. I hope the Matilda Jane inspiration that I bring into my life overflows onto my daughter to teach her creativity and individuality. Thank you for the fun and color you bring into our lives! (Summertime Display Please)
Matilda Jane means Innocense & friendship to me. It adds a little extra sweetness to those already sweet little girls in our hearts. All of these sweet girls are kinda friends by a special unique bond of Matilda Jane even though they have never met.
My little sweetie is a size 6. If you choose me please choose a couple little size 2 sweeties to recieve them 
tell them thier friend Rachael sent them 
(I would Love Sweetshop
I’m going to attempt to avoid the cliche’s here, but to me, Matilda Jane is the quirky clothes that little girls want to wear. I often hear, “Did your daughter dress herself?”- and she did! She LOVES wearing twirly skirts with a princess crown on her head. I love that she feels pretty, rather than wearing clothes that simply have a character on them. To me, Matilda Jane represents little girls having fun and marching to their own drum.
PS I would love the Summertime display
M-aster of creativity
A-maxing
T-ride and true
I-ncredible quality
L-oyal
D-reign on my daughter
A-lways amazing
I would love Explore…..
Matilda Jane is beautiful, playful, and original! I love to see my two little girls’ faces light up when they get new items! Their smile fills the room as they twirl around feeling like a princess! In a nutshell…..it’s happiness and giggles!! P.S. I love giggles!
I’m interested in the Sweetshop! : )
Matilda Jane means Goodness wrapped up in aqua ticking. It means Uniqueness buttoned up in brown. Matilda Jane means Friendship swirled around pink ribbon and it means ‘Love’ … inside every single stitch.
Fun comfort for my girl. She whirls and twirls and laughs as she wears it. Her eyes light up at the site of it. She’s drawn to the colors and prints. Thanks for the chance! Summertime
I forgot to say which display we’d love. I think Explore. My older daughter didnt get so lucky while we shopped Art Fair last week. My youngest made out!
Sorry if this is a duplicate post, having issues with it going through. Thanks!
Matilda Jane clothing never fails to bring a smile to my daughter’s face and to those who see her wearing the clothes. MJC definitely raises Kendall’s happiness qoutient. It means a proud father who actually says “Yes, she’s in a Matilda Jane outfit, you can find them online”. For myself, I’m grateful for beautiful clothing from a company that does it’s best to hold true to itself and gives back to so many. Love the colors in the Summertime display.
I don’t need 5 sentences to describe MJ…just one word, PASSION! It is a passion for those of us that love to dress our daughters in it and a passion for those that create it
I just flat out love it!
MJ is a warm summer’s day, and a brisk fall breeze. It’s the best of the holidays, and the loveliness of spring. It’s undeniable cuteness, beauty, and grace, and it makes me happiest when it lights up my daughter’s face!
Crossing my fingers for the Summertime display
Matilda Jane to me means the smile on my daughters face as she puts on her only Matilda Jane Dress. The way she twirls and smiles when people say she has a very pretty dress on. The perfect way we can say where it came from and be proud! The plain excitement and confidence in her face! That is why we love matilda jane.
Summertime
This is very cool because I stared at the sweetness display a couple of different times. I love the way my daughter looks and to see her in it seems to make more than me happy. Other than the clothes, I know I’ve said this before but its so true… I love my friendships born from MJC. Plain and simple MJC means beautiful clothes and beautiful women to me!!
Matilda Jane to me is LOVE. It starts with the LOVE you all obviously put into the designs of the pieces. My daughter LOVES the way she looks when she wears it. And I LOVE to see her smile and the way it makes her feel. And, of course, I LOVE all the compliments we receive each and every time she wears MJ! (Summertime)
Matilda Jane exhibits the very essence of what my daughter is; fun loving, sweet, with a little bit of edge, and lots and lots of love. My shy 7 year old comes out of her shell when wearing MJC and carries with her a light of self confidence. I LOVE MJC because you stand for more than just a pretty fabric, but a way for girls to be themselves and express their individuality. My sweet girl has found something that allows her to be comfortable and confident in her own skin and I don’t know of anything that could make me happier!!
**We are interested in the EXPLORE display**
Matilda Jane means being able to dress my little one in something unique and adorable that let’s her express her personality, all without breaking the bank
I love the Sweet Shop display. So cute and perfectly girl!
Matilda Jane means pure joy watching my little girl twirl in your clothes. Girls twirling in MJ must be part of their DNA because we never taught her this, but she just knew what to do the first day she wore her first MJ this summer! Both photos are gorgeous, wish I could have been there. I would love whichever group has the most size 2 dresses/skirts for more twirling:)
Matilda Jane means I and my little girl do not look like everyone else. We look and feel, like we are special, unique, and cherished. Cute doesn’t even begin to describe the clothes. They are beautiful, intricate, colorful, and fun. We love our Matilda Jane!
I am interested in Summertime.

I say when in doubt, wear Matilda Jane. Its fun, fresh, simple, and it highlights everything I already loved about looking at my daughter
My sweet daughter and I are newbies to MJC. I just can’t get enough of her adorable smile, the endless twirling, and the mandatory princess title while she’s wearing the few cute and comfy pieces we have.
I love that she feels oh-so-pretty in them and that we’ll enjoy these clothes for as long as we can squeeze into them. And I love that we’ll be able to pass them along to another sweet girl who’ll feel just as special.
(We’d totally love the Explore or Sweetshop!!)
In a nutshell it means: Confidence, Cuteness, Smiles, Compliments guaranteed, Girliiness for as long as she’ll wear it & Pure joy while wearing it! Summertime please, thanks!
Oops… (EXPLORE) would be the collection that would work for my girls…
Matilda Jane is made from the heart. It means to me: sweetness, uniqueness and adorability!!!
Matilda Jane means:
Simple yet stunning.
Girlie yet genuine.
Classy yet comfortable.
It’s like sharing a root beer float with a best friend after dancing in the puddles on a summer afternoon.
I love the sweetshop display though I’m sure all of them are quite amazing.
Matilda Jane has come to mean the world to my daughter and I. MJC means sharing and caring, all while looking fantastic. MJC means hosting parties with old friends at my home; and finding a new friend in my trunk keeper. MJC means bringin’ it home, right here in the good old USofA and being proud to say “I’m a Matilda Jane girl!” – Summertime!
Matilda Jane Means…
M…Mania
A…Amazing
T…Tantalizing
I…Intriguing
L..Lovely
D…Desirable
A…Accommodating
J…Joyful
A…Appreciative
N…Neat
E…Excellent
I would love the Summertime display!
Oh my!! MJ means supporting creative, independent women following their dream. It means supporting our own economy and helping a USA small business to succeed. I am so glad to support a company that gives so much back to others they way you do. Finally – I just plain live your designs and how they look on my itty bitty! Xoxo ps I love the summertime display
P.S. (summertime)
Matilda Jane means a connection to my daughter, who truly delights when we play dress-up in her closet or simply throw on a molly to go twirl and swing. It means a connection to my late grandmother, who had difficulty expressing her love directly but always made sure we had the highest-quality, most distinctive clothing around. It’s a connection to a beautiful world filled with innovative and creative people who inspire my career work. And it’s a connection to the wonderful community of friends I’ve made, who talk with equal passion and attention to both dresses and our personal dramas and dreams.
Summertime or Sweetshop would work for me! Thanks so much for holding this contest.
Carrie
Matilda Jane makes me smile! I love to be able to dress my daughter like a little girl. Your clothes are feminine and beautiful! Matilda Jane also has led me to many new friends! Matilda Jane is simple, yet breathtakingly amazing!
I love how Matilda Jane allows my daughters to express themselves. This morning my oldest daughter wanted to be a pirate so she pulled out a halter that had pok-a-dots and pair of pok-a-dot ruffles and attached her ribbon that she made into a belt with a sword and compass. She put on her eye patch and was transformed into a pirate princess. She felt special and she created her outfit all by herself. I love how MJ inspires my daugthers to be creative individuals and to just have fun!!!
Sweetshop is Gorgeous!!
Matilda Jane means a type of friendship where even when I don’t have the means to buy MJ, I know I have friends who miss me and want me posting opinions and quick witted responses on our facebook page. Matilda Jane means helping others like the way they sent my best friend a care package to spread their love to her and warm her heart when she needed it most. Matilda Jane means taking that inspiration they give and finding ways in your life to give to others and help others, like sponsoring another family’s Christmas. Matilda Jane means holding onto your daughter’s childhood allowing her to wear innocent, gorgeous clothes that show she is just a sweet fun loving little girl who isn’t growing up anytime soon. Matilda Jane means thinking back to your own childhood and remembering how much you loved your Strawberry Shortcake doll, sheet set and nightgown because even if you grew up poor you felt like that was all you needed to feel blessed.
Thanks MJC. The Burke Family Loves your Heart.
Matilda Jane means…
1. Allowing my child ability to express her personality through clothing.
2. Gorgeous photos of our child adorning our walls, therefore expressing our love of her personality.
3. My heart is happy supporting a business that gives back.
I just left a comment and I would be happy with any display. Summertime and then Sweetshop would fit my pirates better.
Forgot to post which one – EXPLORE
Matilda Jane to me means the most stylish, fashionable and affordable exclusive clothes for little princesses. The clothes make every child look absolutely adorable and are soft, comfortable and wearable every day! And the Company is so much fun, caring and generous. My favorite label, I heart Matilda Jane! Explore
I think what a fun, young, hip company that designs such gorgeous clothes for my little girls to wear! Not only that, but a company with a big heart that gives back to the community and to their customers in such awesome ways like Spread the Love!
Friendship is the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of Matilda Jane. I love all the new women that I have met through my love for this company and their clothes. Love is the second word that comes to mind when thinking of Matilda Jane, I love the way my girls look in Matilda Jane and that they love what they are wearing. Generosity is the next word that comes to mind, I have never been part of (and I do feel like I am part of your company) a company that gives so freely, whether it’s to charity, to people in need or just to give. The last thing word that describes what Matilda Jane means to me is Addiction (I mean this in a good way), I am so addicted to these clothes, I can’t get enough, I say I will cut back every release, but I just can’t. Sweetshop Please!
Sun time. Fun time. A little bit of easy joy time. Smile time.
Sweetshop, my daughter is in 2′s and my best friend’s daughter is a 6
Matilda Jane means to many things to me, the most important is friendship. I have met some of the most amazing women while buying MJ clothing for my daughter. It also means quality and unbelievably unique style. Everywhere I go, people comment on my daughter’s clothing. MJ also to me means amazing Customer service, you are a company that actually listens and cares and also cares for the community.
So sorry it was a bit longer than 5 sentences, lol…But is hard to sum up a love for a company in that! I am just so glad I finally got my little girl after my 2 incredible (would not trade) boys.
Ashley
Oh yeah, and I would love Explore!
Oops. Explore.
Matilda Jane means…goodness. There are people who LOVE the clothes but cannot afford the clothes and trips to AF’s and MJ still gives so many chances at being able to showcase their daughters in the works of art! Thanks for that! Maybe we will show some off soon! <3 We like the Sweetshop and Summertime!
Matilda Jane is beauty inside and out. You ladies strive to provide beautiful clothing to the masses and succeed. You make it your mission to put smiles on as many faces as possible and you always win. You face criticism, mockery, and negativity from so many angles and you hold your heads high, put your smile on, and just try to give more and more. This kind of perseverance, spirit and generosity is rare and something we should all strive for.
Those displays are amazing, wish I could have been there to see them in person! To me MJC is a great way for my girls to show off their individuality and uniqueness, while making them feel girly and pretty…My girls get so many compliments on their clothing, people are always telling them it’s so fun and funky, and just “them”!
Oops, forgot to add that I would be interested in the Explore display! Thanks!
Whoops…forgot Summertime Display
Matilda Jane to me means : happy daughters and happy mom. It means go to your closet and feel grown up by picking out what u want to wear and I know u will look cute. MJ means smiles and commlements all day long. It means role in the mud, slide down the slides and run thru the sprinkler because dang those clothes wash up good. Matilda Jane = No Worries and hey isn’t that what summer is about !?
Matilda Jane is a perfectly FABULOUS clothing line for little girls and their mommies! It is always eclectic and fun! Encouraging confidence and inspiration while providing comfort and durability. Best of all it grows with my little cupcake;-) What more could any girl possibly ask to be wrapped in?????
“Sweetshop” but of course ANY display/collection would be more appreciated than you would ever know;-) Those displays are INCREDIBLE!!!! The visuals are just amazing that you ladies put together!!!!
Matilda Jane means freedom from clothing “rules” and conventionality. It means creativity, because genius inspires genius, which we can clearly see in just about every picture ever taken of MJC clothing. Finally, it means love, and not just the love Denise puts into the designs and the 435 girls have for running MJC; it’s the love of fashion I get to share with my daughter, and the wonderful feeling of thinking, “I love my clothes” whenever I look at Willows and Finns and Bluebirds hanging up in the closet.
Matilda Jane means HAPPINESS!
Display Explore
Oopps Explore !!
Matilda Jane means:
L-aughter with my daughter
O-riginality
V- ice ( a major vice of mine!!)
E-xtra special details and quality
I would love explore!
Matilda Jane means that I can dress my daughter in absolutely adorable, unique clothing that captures her spunkiness and innocence all in one. I also love that every piece of clothing I buy is somehow a small part of helping others through the care packages and habitat houses and the million other little ways you are always making people smile. I have made several new friends by either introducing someone to the MJC family or discussing the new line with a fellow addict. No matter which member of our family is wearing MJC – my daughter, my son, or me – we always feel cute and comfy and fun and even a bit unpredictable when we put your clothes on. Who knew that a clothing line could make that much a difference in the world? (And we’d be interested in Sweetshop or Summertime.)
it means vintagey looking goodness, sweetness, little girlness. it’s like winning the cute lottery for my girl. love it. and I love the sweetness since I have a size 6 kacuuuuttteee.
For me, Matilda Jane means so much more than just a fancy label. Fun, frilly, colorful and of course “unpredictable” are just a few words that describe it, but when my girls wear it, they exude all that and more!! Top 2 being CONFIDENCE & INDIVIDUALITY! Thank you MJ for helping us to teach our children that it’s okay to be a little different & to always be proud of who we are!!
My pick is the summertime display
Sorry — forgot to include that we’d love the Summertime display! Thanks!
When I see my girls wearing their Matilda Jane, it means smiles, giggles and the innocence of being young. From them telling me they feel like princesses in their ballerina dresses to how pretty and comfy they feel in their shorties and ellies. It is always the first thing they reach for when picking out what to wear for the day, even if it means the same things over and over again. Simply, to me Matilda Jane means “Special” because that is how it makes my girls feel.
In our family, the name Matilda Jane means something different to each family member. For my kids, it means they have the twirl power (from MJ skirts), clothes that make them feel pretty and girly, and the confidence to be original and stand apart from the crowd. For me, it means pretty much the same…LOL but it also makes me smile inside because I see how much joy it brings to my girls. For my lovely husband, it means something that makes the wife and kids happy but let’s face it, men will never appreciate how happy clothes can make us girls! But in summary, we just love our MJ and I will never find the right words to describe how perfect Matilda Jane is for our family! Interested in Sweetshop
Matilda was the name of my childhood dog. She was an adorable, tiny, fun, sweet little beagle who could be surprisingly stubborn and strong but always the most loyal friend. Now I’m all grown-up with three little girls of my own and I have to say Matilda Jane Clothing Company feels like a member of our family because I check in almost daily on the blog and website and my girls are in the clothes so much of the time that they seem to almost visually state who they are. They are adorable, tiny, fun, sweet little girls who can be surprisingly stubborn and strong and always the most loyal friends. Explore
Matilda Jane is a lifestyle choice for me
Matilda Jane is staying up so late in the night that it becomes morning chatting with friends on Facebook (doing our own silly give aways, playing games, talking about life’s ups and downs and just being a part of the bigger picture of what MJ stands for). It’s a community of wonderful moms and gorgeous daughters- enjoying each others friendship and dressing to the max 
It’s the choice to financially sacrifice in other areas of my life so that I can buy my daughters (and myself) the best looking clothes out there!!! I save and sell and scrounge to dig up every last penny to order from each show and promo that comes along- I even sent money along with friends when I couldn’t save enough to make it to Art Fair myself.
I would love to win any of the displays, but especially whichever has the aqua love tank dress!
thanks!!!
MJ allows me to enter a world of dreams. I get to reminisce my own childhood through MJ and give my children the same.
Interested in the ‘Explore’ display.
I very rarely win things and I don’t always have a way with words, but I want to tell you what MJC means to me anyway. It’s seeing your DD sparkle when she wears a twirly dress. It’s getting “starstruck” when I saw all of you ladies at AF and was afraid to tell you how much I admire you for your beauty, generosity and warm hearts. It’s the thrill of the chase at finding just that PERFECT piece to add to an already overflowing closet. Most of all, it’s the satisfaction you feel when you are able to share the love and make the day of friends that you’ve met just through a brand of clothing. Is MJC “just a brand of clothing?” (hear my gansta voice) Hell to the no! It’s a family, a way of life. Thank you for all that you do. xo PS – I realize I am probably disqualified for the length of my post, but should I be lucky enough to be chosen, I would love the summertime display, but be happy to have anything at all.
When I think of Matilda Jane, I think of days off from work & hanging out with my kids. Disneyland, the park, a picnic, the mall, it doesn’t matter as long as we’re giggling together. I think of fun times & making memories and hey, my daughter looks so cute too. I also think of napkins- because nobody wants to get popsicles dripped onto their Matilda Jane! Thanks!!!
we are interested in the explore display.
Dreams fullfilled – Matilda Jane is all the goodness, prettiness, exciement, competition, drama and so much more of being a girl! I dreamed and pretended to be a mama when I was little with my baby dolls and having a little princess to shop for and spoil has brought me back to being that little girl! Matilda Jane has connected me to so many sweet mamas on moms in style, addicts, Facebook, eBay!! We giggle, complain, shout, cheer, and marvel at the cuteness of our pretty princesses in Matilda Jane!! Summertime or sweet shop! Maggie is a 2!!
My 6-year-old daughter requests “Matilda Jane only” on Sunday mornings because she loves how the clothes feel and how they make her feel. She loves that folks at our church can’t wait to see what she’s wearing and tell her how beautiful she is and how they wish they could wear ruffle pants. I, in turn, adore her enthusiasm and self-assured smiles.
Making

That’s what you guys do and one of the things MJC means to me! Love that Summertime display!
To me, Matilda Jane means that it looks like I love my girls and want them to wear clothes that are both fun and beautiful. It means that both of my girls (1 yr and 6 yrs) can wear clothes that look alike. It means I know that my child looks beautiful when she puts the clothes on in the morning, and equally as beautiful with added the added wrinkles and dirt in the afternoon. Just looking at MJ clothes makes my heart happy.
I would love the Explorer set! Thank you!!!!
MJC means sweetness, simplicity, and of course cuteness! It also means twirls, giggles and smiles!!!
Making my craftiest ideas/fantasies into reality is what Matilda Jane means to me. I love that these clothes seem to make any picture of my daughter that much better. They really do make you smile!!!
I loved the sweetshop display b/c I have a thing for cake stands.
Matilda Jane means my daughter, or myself, can be a princess for a day. The flood of compliments when we are wearing MJC is unbelievable. To the soft materials, lovely buttons, to the unexpectedness, it’s all CUTENESS! It makes me feel good inside and out and is the only thing my daughter wants to wear. It’s simply LOVE!
I’m not good with words but Matilda Jane means dressing my little (but older girls) in clothing that is innocent and beautiful. It means keeping them younger for a little while longer instead of having to dress them in minature teenage clothing. My girls don’t mind that their clothes aren’t like their friends and gladly tell everyone where to get their pretties.
They feel beautiful, unique and secure… and there’s nothing more a Mommy could ask for. Explore would be perfect for my girlies…my girls wear sz 8 and my niece sz 2 (who is already a mini MJC diva lol)!!! 
When I found out that I was having a little girl, my very first baby, I was beside myself imagining how fun it would be to dress her up. Stella finally arrived and shortly after I discovered Matilda Jane. I can’t imagine a more perfect brand for my spunky, curly red headed girl. It’s amazing to me that one clothing line can so perfectly represent what a little girl should be; sweet, funny, beautiful, smart, original, and playful. To our family, Matilda Jane is the perfect clothing to match our perfect little girl.
SWEETSHOP!!
*Explore*
Matilda Jane is childhood. When my daughter wears MJ, her personality shines through her clothes. She is feminine and spunky at the same time and the Matilda Jane fabrics and patterns are so beautiful to see and touch. I love that my daughter’s clothes are unique and that she feels so pretty wearing them.
Interested in the Sweetshop display. Thanks!
MJC means to me fun, spunky, and magic! I love how you can get more out of there clothing, than just one season. I also, love how y’all give back to others in need! Summertime would be great for my sweet, spunky Sophie!
MJC defines a free-spirit. The mixture of patterns & styles is a work of art with a vintage yet modern flare. MJC is comfortable, unique, and absolutely fabulous! Every girl can rock it in her own way.
Sweetshop or Summertime
Oh ya, I would love Explore!
….When I see my daughter standing in front of me in all her beautiful MJ clothing, I think just gorgeous. The clothing is beautiful, every piece I pick out. The anticipation of it all down to the last minute of a release to the minute by minute that platinum is uploaded. Also, working with such beautiful and sweet ladies who are such a joy to speak with if needed. And last to mention going broke has never been so fun……lol… <3
Summertime….
oops! Interested in the Explore or Sweet Shop Collection!
Explore (I trust the cuteness factor). At first discovering MJC meant that my little tomboy was finally able to enjoy being a girl! But then I got caught up in the “share the love” philosophy of the MJC team and it did my heart good to try to be a good “giver”. Never in my wildest imagination did I believe I would be a receiver of this kindness. After my family lost our home to a lightening strike and the resulting fire, my mailbox was filled with good wishes and little trinkets from mommies I’ve met through my love of MJC. Words cannot express the love I have for this company, it employees, and the mommies who love it as much as I do. <3
I love Matilda Jane because I love the charm of it all. I love how it got started out small and big dreams came true and because of all the hard work put into it by each and every member of the the MJ team. I love how the clothes makes my little girl giggle with delight every time we are lucky enough to get a package and see the sparkle in her eye, pure joy! How can you not love to support a company who can do that? Thanks for all you do and your generosity towards charities! (Sweetshop)
MJ is pure, sweet girl. It is twirly, girly fun and magical. It is ruffles and bows, ribbons and buttons wrapping up a beautiful package of my daughter’s innocence and imagination. Reminding me of my childhood and to enjoy and cherish hers. It makes her feel pretty, happy and confident! Thanks, Summertime or Sweetshop would work best for us please
.
Forgot to add that Sweetshop would be my pick!
Unpredictability. Uniqueness. Freshness. Loyalty. Happiness.
Matilda Jane to me embodies all the sweetness, innocence and individuality of every little girl. Every piece is different and special in it’s own way. I absolutely adore and cherish every piece in our collection. Matilda Jane to me is beyond words <3
Matilda Jane means caring, giving,making new friends, and sometimes even obsessing! It’s so much more than children’s clothing. It’s the feeling of your heart swelling up in your chest when you watch your little girl whirling and twirling in a beautiful dress. It’s about loving clothes that are unique but not so different that the little girl wearing it doesn’t get to shine though. love you guys!! <3 Sweetshop.
Matilda Jane means seeing my daughter’s face as she opens an MJ package and seeing her smile from ear to ear. Loving being able to dress alike in mother-daughter clothing. Enjoying being the mom of a girl who is growing up way too fast! Cherishing every moment.
I would love the Explore display for my 8 year old girl, I don’t care what it’s made of!
Matilda Jane means individuality, creativity, and cuteness! I love dressing Emma Claire who’s 2 in MJ clothes and seeing her excitement as she picks out each piece and that I can also buy pieces for my 17 yo daughter Allie! We love that no one else around us looks the same!
Matilda Jane are those clothes I wished I could have worn as a little girl. Wrapped up in one dress,top,or really any MJC piece is so much fun, creativity, individuality,uniqueness, & of course sunshine that is just begging (and well deservedly) a compliment! Just looking at them makes anyone feel special & happy
sweet shop or any but my MJC girl wears a 6
I am interested in the Summertime Collection ….. But would be thrilled with any
All my careful spacing got jumbled up … so much for my clever usage of M A T I L D A J A N E. LOL Now it just looks like I have no grasp of the use of punctuation and good grammar.
We would love to buy summertime! Forgot to add
Matild Jane is wearing clothes that make my daughter and myself feel girly, pretty, and comfortable. It is walking out the door and looking different than anyone else you meet on the street. It is feeling playful and ready to take on whatever adventure you meet along the way! (And I LOVE the sweet shop display!)
Matilda Jane is sweetness and innocence.
Today I was watching my youngest daughter dance in the rain sprinkles while waiting to watch her big sister in a parade, wearing her Matilda Jane 4th of July Ellie and a sparkly crown.
She was so happy and unaware that she was the only one out there dancing, while everyone in the crowd watched and smiled at her.
Of course she made me smile too, and tear up a bit knowing that she will only be this young for a short time.
Matilda Jane is sweetness and innocence mixed in with a little bit of quirkiness and attitude. Just how I hope my girls will be!
Any display would be fine.
Matilda Jane means ture bliss and happiness to me. It puts a smile on my face every time my daughter Stella says, “Mommy I want to wear a Matilda Jane dress”. Just seeing one of those brown boxes on the front steps makes my heart jump because I know there are some sweet goodies in there. Matilda Jane is a company who is constantly giving back to others so I know my purchases are always going to go towards some good cause in the future which makes me want to buy again and again! I’ve never been fortunate to score Platinum but those beauties are truely a work of art and just so amazingly stunning that words cannot describe them!
Matilda Jane allows me to dress my 7 yr. old daughter like a 7 year old and not some miniature teenager! Thank you so much for designing clothes that are age appropriate and “funky cool” as my daughter says!!
MJC is:
1.Ridiculously cute clothes.
2.A way for me to dress my girls to coordinate without being too matchy matchy.
2.Living proof that a dream can become reality.
3.An example of how hard work in a small business results in crazy success. Any display is fine…I have three girls!
Sorry….would love Explore.
I absolutely love Matilda Jane for my little girl! She is the definition of a Matilda Jane girl. She has Aspergers and is very unique. She has her own since of style and the clothes seem to fit her personality just right
I would love the Explore display
To me Matilda Jane is girly modest clothing that my daughters can wear and look their sweet young age. It means affordable clothing that is unique and something that not all girls at school will match exactly. It means a smile on my daughters face when she sees her beautiful clothes. It also means a little Matilda Jane love for Mama too!
I love the summertime because where we live it’s always summer!!
Matilda Jane to me means can be summed up in the word *JANE*. “J” is for the JOY you see on every girl’s face that is wearing MJ from infant to adult. “A” is for ASSERTIVENESS which is what every Matilda Jane girl needs to have in order to nab those hard-to-get clothes & accessories on platinum
. “N” is for NILA my beautiful girl who lights up a room every time she wears Matilda Jane. And “E” is for EPIC because there is no better word to describe what Matilda Jane is and will be for years to come, it is magical.
Matilda Jane means fun, quality, adorable, and out of reach for me at this point!! I am a newbie to MJC and have yet to score a piece!! I’m dying to purchase my daughter some of your beautiful creations! Definitely making a trip to Fort Wayne for Art Fair next year!!! All of your display pictures are amazing but I’m particularly fond of Sweetshop!!
Matilda Jane means innocence to me. The sweet innocence of my little girls are personified in their clothes. Carefree, colorful, and “unpredictable”! Seeing them in their MJ is a happy snapshot of their childhoods! (Explore- please!, or Sweetshop)
i will not go on and on about how important MJ is to me, but i will tell you why i like your style. i like that my girls can be cute without being fussy. i like they can be stylish without being perfect. i like that they can be similar to one another, and still be unique. and i like that they can wear your clothes to church, school, or the backyard and look right at home.

I’d love to win Summertime because of the sizes, but any MJ is always awesome.
What Matilda Jane means to me: a Haiku
Delightful mixture.
Layers of color enhance
My multi-faceted girl.
Matilda Jane is cuteness, comfortable, and easy that I love to see my daughter in, and she doesn’t mind wearing, because even at 18 months she already has an opinion. We went to the beach last week and I just threw everything in a bag, and knew it would all mix and match when we got there, and if she had a spill we could just swap tops (also easy for potty training, ha-ha)! Since I buy for the season, I don’t have to search through boutiques all year and can spend more time having fun and less time shopping. Interested in the Summertime display.
I forgot to add that i would LOVE summertime OR sweetshop whichever one would be FINE with me!!!!
Matilda Jane reminds me so much of the special dresses my own grandma made for me when I was a little girl. The cute buttons and lace trim are both details that were always a part of her handmade dresses. She passed away almost eight years ago, but in a way, these pretty little clothes allow me to feel a connection to her.
Matilda Jane means happiness, love, and fun for my daughter! She loves to twirl and dance around in her outfits as if music were playing in the background. She feels beautiful, special, and like “a princess” as she twirls….she is a real entertainer! We enjoy watching her dance, as it brings happiness and smiles to everyone around her. She truly is a gift, and we love to wrap her up in Matilda Jane! We would LOVE to win the Summertime Dispay:):):) Thank you for the chance!!
I love the way my 5 year old looks like a little girl. Her face lights up, she is so happy! The clothing is just precious. We would love any of the displays. My daughter wears a size 6.
Matilda Jane means:childhood, smiles, friendship, giggles and so much more. My daughter struggles to fit in but when she has MJ on she just beams with confidence. It is almost like it changes her from the inside out. I also love the sisterhood that is formed from the clothing. I went to my first trunk show this season and it was amazing, it was like we all knew each other for years, when in fact the only common thread was Matilda Jane and we had all just met.
We would need the size 8′s–so the Explore package **you could even split them and give someone else the smaller sizes from it**
THANK YOU for even considering us xoxoxox Laura and Britt
My childhood room had wallpaper that was a stripe pattern on two walls and a floral patten on th opposite walls. The palate was orange, olive green and yellow. MJC reminds me of that colorful, bright room where dreams were weaved and imagination ruled…childhood. No other clothing captures that colorful, sassy spirit that still lingers in me and the now woman that appreciates a creative, fun small company with a conscience and a heart for others.
The display with the orange & green ruffles remind me of my room!
Matilda Jane means child-like freedom and fun! Yep…in every button, ruffle, flower and tie MJ brings the fun alive! It’s crazy that apparel can spark a mood or bring back memories, but MJ does. I see my kiddos in MJ and I’m transported back to games of Ring Around the Rosie, catching fireflies, playing dress-up. MJ allows my children to embrace childhood freedom and fun and allows their fun little personalities to shine.
My daughter is adopted and happens to be biracial. She is 5 yo and is just starting into the” I hate my curly hair” stage (which we think is beautiful!). But when she puts on her MJ, her face lights up-mostly because of the abundance if compliments she receives on how gorgeous she looks. Thank you for making clothes that make my daughter feel as special and beautiful as we KNOW she is!
I love to see my daughter so excited to pick out her clothes. She is 2 and LOVES her “twirly dresses”. It is all so unique and so sweet. I can’t say enough wonderful things about MJC. It’s just perfect!!~sweetshop
The summertime would work best for my 14m old
To me Matilda Jane Clothing is Love. I Love to do good with MJC & Habitat for Humanity. I Love how happy it makes my daughter and others when they give compliments Love also hurts when you can’t get a piece you desire. You still have Love when you another Lovely piece is coming!!!
EXPLORE!
Matilda jane signifies the young and innocence to my daughter. The genuine sweetness that oozes out of her. It means that a smile is brought to my lil girl’s face when sliding into a twirly dress. Matilda Jane extends beyond clothes for my lil girl, it means friendships formed along the way in a world where we might not normally meet. Thank you for your clothes!! (Summertime)
Oops…I forgot to include the display – Summertime!!!
I would like to share in 5 words what MJC means to me ….FAITH = to carry out a dream you {Denise} had/have ! LOVE = that goes into each and every item made ! CARING = not only for your own community but others as well ! HEART = for which you {Denise} where on your sleeve ! GIVING = in which you have done since day 1 ,not only in the give-aways but through FAITH in your employees,LOVE for your company and what it means,a HEART of pure gold,and in GIVING so freely of yourself in time and talents !…….and as for which display would I prefer, that doesn’t matter because if I would be a winner I plan on giving each item to Lil’ girl’s with an illness who might not feel so pretty . And as we all know any item from MJC will surely make a Lil’ girl feel especially beautiful !
Oops and I forgot to post that we would like the explore!
A group of friends who are like family working together to create beautiful,unique and quality clothing. . . Providing positive, friendly and professional service to each and every client, business partner and customer . . . Building realtionships and fashioning memories that will last a lifetime . . . And this is what Matilda Jane means to me which puts a huge smile on my face and warmth in my heart! Thank you. :O)
We love our MJ over here. I love everytime my daughter wears her MJ everyone just gushes about how cute she looks. I also love wearing my MJ. I feel so stylish!
Sweetness! It means 2 girls smiling and twirling around in absolute cuteness! It means constant anticipation of the next line! MJ means to be different and original! Explore
I love that Matilda Jane has such a HUGE heart! I love that my girls have the biggest smiles on their faces when they wear Matilda Jane. I love that Matilda Jane clothing keeps my 8 1/2 year old looking like a little girl compared to a lot of other clothing line! Thank you for making beautiful clothing for my girls and for me!!! Interested in the explore!
Sweet and carefree, Matilda Jane brings back memories my own childhood and reminds me of the importance of cherishing every single beautiful moment of my daughter’s youth, as it passes by so very quickly. From momentous occasions like meeting her baby brother for the first time, to everyday delights such as picking vegetables from our backyard garden and taking long walks together in the park; Matilda Jane will forever be pressed in these memories, like a delicate rose between the pages of a most loved book. Matilda Jane is unique, strong spirited, intelligent, compassionate, and imaginative – also seeds that I see in my daughter and work hard to cultivate as she grows and matures. For me, Matilda Jane is more than “just clothes” and represents a common bond of creativity, companionship, and mentorship between mother and daughter that I hope we never outgrow.
We would love to win any of the displays (they are all amazing!), but especially love the sweetshop display.
When I first discovered Matilda Jane it meant “omgosh, what adorable clothing!! I have to have some for my daughter!!” Then I started following the blog and facebook, and MJ took on a new meaning. I have never witnessed a company that is so giving and loving. I became a lover of all things MJ and loyal for sure!!
We would love Summertime!!
Matilda Jane means adorable clothing for all occasions. Even my husband thinks the girls look cute in their Matilda Jane. My girls wear their Matilda Jane everywhere, church, daycare, school, shopping, family pictures. I love the smile on my daughter’s face when I tell her we are going to Julie’s (My TK) house to pick out new clothing.
Explore please.
After a world of little boys, I had my first girl about a year ago. In this day, it is hard to find cute girl clothes that are not too grown up(especially for the tween age). I will keep my little girl in Matilda Jane as long as I can. Adorable, beautiful and different without sacrificing modesty and innocence. Thank you for a breath of fresh air! (Summertime would be my first choice.)
Matilda Jane, to me, is inspiring. I love the photographs of the material, the buttons, the details- it makes me want to redecorate my house, pick up crafting, learn how to sew, and MAKE something unique- a throwback to simpler days where instead of rushing from the office to soccer practice, we had time to tend to a vegetable garden, take in the little things, and CREATE. It is enveloped in the upswing of farmer’s markets, organic products, relaxed photography of our children, and realizing that people, and relationships, are more important than losing hours behind a TV screen or a computer. I’m kinda partial to Sweet Shop, but I’d be over the moon to win any of the three- my daughter is a size 2, so any would work!
For me Matilda Jane allows me to dress my little girl in clothes that let her shine just as that, “a little girl”. I enjoy picking out her clothes in the morning with her and hearing compliments everywhere we go. She loves the “girliness and twirliness” of it all and I love that she gets a kick out of the oohs and ahhs, too. I am so glad that I discovered Matilda Jane a couple years ago and I didn’t miss out on the opportunity to dress my daughter in these unique and adorable clothes!!
Oops forgot to put which display I would be “Summertime or Sweetshop” :O)
My pick would be Sweetshop. I am entering on behalf of my bff who could not come to 435 and was unable get anything from 435.. She has two little beauties that love MJ. Matilda Jane means Beauty, imagination, giving, and friendship. I love seeing the beautiful clothes on my dd and just love seeing it on all the little girls and big girls! I love the bond it has created among us women. Love how i have met so many wonderful people because of MJC!
Summertime or sweetshop. Mj to me means much more than the cuteness and quality of the clothing. It means supporting and being loyal to a woman who does nothing but give, share, love, and do for others. I am in love with the clothing…..but I am in awe of the women behind it. Loyal customer no matter how many items i can’t get….and no matter how many contests i never win!
Matilda Jane for me is meeting new friends that share the love of uniqueness of clothes and having fabulous time with them. Matilda Jane also means great and creative results of photos of my little girl that bring smile to family and friends. Thank you, MJC! Sweetshop size 6 please.
Matilda Jane can mean so many different things: 1) Waking up everyday and dressing little girls in the most adorable outfits! 2) Walking down the street and everyone looking at them in their cute outfit that nobody else is wearing anything like them. 3) Random people come up to you and ask you were your daughters outfit or your bag! 4) Matilda Jane means unique, fun, beautiful, happy & totally awesome clothes & bags!! SUMMERTIME (Please)
oops, I forgot…. either Sweetshop or Explore would fit best! ; )
I went to the Art Fair this year, and it was the first time every buying anything from Matilda Jane. I was amazed at how everyone was buying a little pile of clothing, but each pile was so different and everything was beautiful and individual. I loved all the stuff I got, and so does my daughter. She’s been twirling around in it each time she’s tried a new piece. So thanks!
(Sweet shop or Summertime)
SUMMERTIME DISPLAY,
i LOVE mjc clothing because of the unique way you put together beautiful irresistible fabrics. i LOVE mjc because the unpredictability “complements” my daughters sometime unpredictable personality perfectly. i LOVE that wearing mjc makes both mom and daughter happy. i LOVE most of all that my daughter feels beautiful and confident wearing MJC.
MJC means unpredictable and unique. Unpredictable – I can never guess what the upcoming line will be inspired by and what it will look like. Unique – in every way, not just the clothing, but the people who work for MJC are unique and add that extra special flair to every piece that is cranked out of 435. EXPLORE!!
Matilda Jane is sweet and classic but lets my little girls’ big personalities SHINE! I love sharing information about the company, not only how to buy, but how it got started and how generous they are. Would love some Summertime cuteness
What Matilda Jane means to me is~ pure love. I love Matilda Jane Clothing and the feeling you get when you put it on. Happy, confident, pretty, cute, and I always feel like jumping up and down on my bed! It puts the biggest smile on my face. I would really like Summertime, not for me but for my cousin who is expecting. I think it would make the PERFECT baby gift, so she can watch her daughter put that smile on her face and feel the same way I do when I put it on. MJC totally rules!
Matilda Jane means staying young at heart. An ongoing reminder of a giving heart. A sweet sophisticated look that just makes you smile! A company that creates friendships between so many that adore these clothes! Matilda Jane is pure perfection!<3
We would love a chance to "Explore"!
What I love most about Matilda Jane Clothing is that I can dress my sweet girls in sweet clothes that are totally fun and funky at the same time. I love being able to coordinate them without having to match. Also, I adore the fact that I can buy size 8 tops and dresses and usually my 5 yr old and my 7 yr old can both wear them! That’s double the wardrobe!
MJC is not just a clothing company, but a way of life. A life that any girl would love to have. Sweet, Unique, & Sassy! Who wants to be like everyone else?! Not my sweet Amelia! She likes to stand out and celebrate being different & when she’s in MJ, dancing to the beat of her own drum never looked so Good!
)
We of course would be excited to win anything, but since Amelia is 6 we will go with EXPLORE! (I’m sure Cute is an understatement
Matilda Jane means my daughter always being happy with and sparkling in whatever she is wearing, never a fight to get her in it. For me wearing MJ means comfort, I often say its as comfortable as sweats or pjs only you look really great and cute. It also means we have really great Mommy and me as well as other great family and individual photos in MJ which is priceless. Overall its love, love for my daughter who wears it, love for adorable and fantastic clothes, and love for such a great company who does such great things. Thanks for all you do!! We like the Summertime group.
Matilda Jane clothing is unique and like no other clothing company I have ever seen. Each piece is a creative artwork in itself and takes you back to to your childhood and makes me, my husband, my girls and people who walk by us smile. I’ve never felt a personal connection to a clothing company, it’s designer, the company employees and to each outfit. I look at each piece and remember it as a time in my daughters life, like when Bella started walking her in gypsy blue Chrissy dress and leggings, or when my daughter met Mickey mouse for in her gypsy Blue Maya dress or when my oldest met faith Hilll and tim Mcgraw in her Michelle at the Disco skirt and faith asked me where i bought that
. I may need therapy when my girls outgrow their MJ, but it will be a fun, unique, creative, quirky and sweet ride and MJ will always be a part of their childhood (sweetshop or explore will work for my girls and I would love to get them as I had to miss Art Fair due to medical reasons)
Oops, I’d love Sweetshop or Explore!!
I would love to win Explore! I’m not great at making things sound fancy or poetic, so here’s the top 5 things that pop into my mind when thinking about why we love MJC!
- it’s different and unique, meaning I know my daughter won’t be dressed the exact same as other kids when we go somewhere!
- the clothes mix and match, meaning more looks from less clothing!
- the clothes are reasonably priced!
- my daughter loves it, how it looks, how it feels, and always makes comments about how “that Matilda Jane lady is a rock star at designing clothes” (LOL)
- MJC makes clothes that make me look cute too! (adult line)
Thanks for the cool giveaway!
Also forgot that Sweetshop sizes fit us best
Matilda Jane is a flirt, a jar of strawberry jam, and a bubble machine. It is wearable art that brings joy to all. I love MJ because she brightly shines her light and inspires us all to do the same. Summertime in MJ is my favorite time of year!
My childhood bedroom had two walls of a stripe pattern and two walls of a floral pattern. The palate was orange, olive green and yellow. This bright, cheerful spot was the place that dreams were weaved and imagination ruled
- childhood. MJC is like that magical childhood spot to me – comfy, colorful and creative. I have never connected with a clothing company like this fun, small company with a huge heart!
Playful, sassy and fun is how I would describe MJC. When my girls go to their closets and ask to wear their “Tilda Jane”, because it makes them feel like pretty princesses, it makes me smile. It’s truly special to me to find a company that can make little girls look like little girls and not little girls trying to look like little women. Every time we open a new box of MJC pretties, my girls light up with excitement and voluntarily try everything on, and that says a lot! The clothes are comfortable, pretty and like no others we’ve seen and that is what I (we) love about Matilda Jane!
We would love an opportunity to win the Summertime display as that is both of my girls sizes! Thanks so much!
Matilda Jane means hanging out with the frogs in the creek while you look your best. Looking for lightning bugs and being able to twirl when you find one. Eating a big juicy piece of watermelon and the freshness and color exude from your dress! And then running up and hugging your mom as you say thank you for a great day! That is what Matilda Jane means to me!
Matilda Jane means friendship (TK and parties) and ingenious, cute clothes for both of my girls and ME! Since I have more sentences (I’d hate to waste), my older daughter Lauren just asked me, “Why doesn’t glue stick to the inside of the bottle?”
Thanks so much Sam!
After all, the face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face- ha! (jack Handey)
The sizing on the sweetshop or explore work for us
When I think of my sweet pea wearing Matilda Jane I can see her little face light up at the pretty dresses and she loves to twirl in them (which she just learned how to do). I love that Matilda Jane clothes make her look like a sweet little girl and not like she is 1 going on 17. Innocent, beautiful, whimsical, sweet, precious! I would love the Summertime display!
Matilda Jane to me means beauty, uniqueness, quality and fun. It means my girly girl gets to feel special. And I LOVE to wear it too! Explore size 8 please:)
Matilda Jane means cute (adorable, actually), one of a kind, comfortable clothing for my girl. Matilda Jane means twirling, smiles and giggles are guaranteed!
.
I’d love sweetshop
In my house, Matilda Jane means more than beautiful, unique clothes for my girls. More than anything, it means supporting a small, woman owned business rather than the big box stores that do not care about their employees or their customers. I hope to be a supporter of Matilda Jane for many years to come!
My girls would love the sweetshop please!
Matilda Jane means making memories with my girls! Time goes by so fast,and I am glowing everytime I see my girls do a twirl in a skirt, or a little dance ending with a curtsy in an MJ dress! I would pick explore- and I don’t need a picture to know it is breathtaking! Sweet, Fresh,Fun and memory worthy that is MJ is to me!
Summertime is my fave!
Matilda Jane guarantees a smile on my face every day! The smile may come from dressing my daughter in a fabulous new combination, or it may come from reading a MJC blog post. The smile may come from talking to a complete stranger because they wanted to comment on my daughter’s outfit. The smile may come from the UPS guy placing a package of new goodies on the front porch. No matter what the reason, I can honestly say that Matilda Jane makes me smile EVERY day! ***Explore***
MJ means that I don’t have to spend time running around shopping but instead spending quality time with my beautiful daughter. I can count on the most beautiful clothes every season. It is a wonder how MJ seems to know little girls so well that their pieces reflect the cutest things about each individual girl. You have made many happy mommies and daughters! Thank you.
Summertime.
To me Matilda Jane means my daughter’s squeals of delight when that brown box arrives with her goodies. It means her giggles when she sees her mama in a matching outfit. It means her smiling face when she puts together a new funky combo. To me Matilda Jane means beautiful fabrics, fabulous style and the innocence of childhood.
Matilda Jane means hapiness to me! I love the way it brings a smile to my daughters face and builds her confidence the moment she puts it on, all while letting her still be a little girl and not pushing her to look grown up. We would LOVE the Explore display!!
Most simply, I love matilda jane because I don’t see myself coming and going! (meaning…not every little girl looks like mine) Even when I do see someone else in it, there are so many different ways to wear it, that it is probably not the same style that we wear it in! Making us all unique and able to express our ouwn styles.
Matilda Jane is yet another way to bond with my best friend. We are purely giddy when we discuss what beautiful pretties we have for our girls. It is a way to introduce my daughter to beauty and quality and her own sense of style (since so many pieces are interchangeable). Finally, Matilda Jane has been excitement for me during my husband’s deployment. I can’t wait for packages, and my heart races with joy with every one. (Summertime!)
Matilda Jane is my first love of clothes for my daughter. I love how she lights up when she wears a ballerina dress or tells me that her Matilda Jane clothes make her feel like a princess. I love the unique fabric combos that are used and I’m not ashamed to admit that the oodles of compliments she receives when she wears your clothes make me keep coming back for more
I would love a chance at summertime. Thank you!
to me, MJC is all about celebrating the inner child and the inner beauty in everyone.
i was kind of nervous to go to art fair all by myself, but left and right, i met one amazing girl after another.
girls to share a cab to the parties.
girls who offered to drive me to 435 at 5am… for real.
and a family who completely made every single person feel welcomed in their home.
(summertime display prettyyyyyy please)
Sorry….i am interested in the Explore display
Oh and we’d love Explore please.
Love and awe. And because of your generosity and love for others, even some of the little girls with hardly any material items have the chance to dress so fancy, and to feel special. And now that you taught me I can do it also. Sure I’m not the only one either.
Girls are almost 6 and 3 so we would love a chance at the Sweetshop. Thank you!
Matilda jane to me is the epitomy of cuteness!! MJC clothes are the only thing my daughter wants to wear! And I could not be happier that your company offers different clothes for cutsy girls!!
Explore would thrill my soul!
To me, Matilda Jane Clothing means; a twirl of color, a bounce in your step, a bold expression of originality, the sweetness and innocence of youth, and a big smile on your face! What comes to mind when I think of my girls in your fabulous clothing would be of fond memories of the landmarks in my children’s life. Birthdays, holidays, the first days of school…all wearing your fabulous clothing! Thank you for filling their young lives full of color and fun!
(We would love the Sweetshop, thank you for the opportunity!)
MJ is the absolute sweetest line of clothing I have ever put on my daughter. Even on her days when she is showing her age (terrible two’s), as soon as I put on her MJ she looks like an absolute angel. I wish that she could remain forever young in her MJ:)(summertime)
Matilda Jane is like the secrets my girls share at night when I sit outside their bedroom door and listen in…It is unique, sweet, and just plain special. The way my girls light up with each new outfit and the way they demand to wear their favorites over and over is adoring. And that’s not to mention all of the friends and other moms I have met and been able to share life experiences with inspired by Matilda Jane. Thank you for this opportunity…would be interested in Sweetshop or Summertime-my girls are size 2 and 4.
I love Matilda Jane because of all the fabulous Mom’s I’ve met!! I also love that i know who makes these fabulous clothes and that they come from some sweet ladies who i feel like I know personally!! I feel like when my daughter wears Matilda Jane, and someone compliments her she feels beautiful!! Matilda Jane is a part of our family just as must as I feel a part of yours
we LOVE Summertime!
Matilda Jane- Alice in Wonderland meets Charlie& The Chocolate Factory- whimsical,magical, unique,sweet and timelessly classic. I am blessed with two little girls I try to inspire to be as unique and beautiful as your clothing- our motto- always be true you and never be afraid to twirl! I love the sweetshop!
***Sweetshop***
MATILDA JANE MEANS…. giving to those in need who are less fortunate than the rest of us.
MATILDA JANE MEANS….new friendships, those made from buying these beautiful clothes.
MATILDA JANE MEANS…laughter/smiles on our daughters faces when they put on your clothes.
But above all MATILDA JANE MEANS FAMILY….moms and daughters matching, the family of 435 and the family you have created by this incredible journey you have allowed each of us to join you on.
Matilda jane is innocence and childhood to me. It is generosity, kindness and love. It is mostly fun! I have met some great people and got to dress both of my girls in clothes that keep them girls! I would love an opportunity to have summertime or sweetness but I would love any of them! Thank you, I’m hoping next year I will be able to make it to art fair!!
What Matilda Jane means to me:
Letting my beautiful daughter be the amazing, free spirited gift from god she is. They are only little for a short time — and MJC celebrates what makes them little: sticky fingers, wispy hair, secret hide outs, cotton candy, sleeping in the bed with mommy, and beautiful dresses that twirl when she dances!
OH — Explore or Sweetshop!
Your company is an inspiration to me in many ways. Your generosity is in one word, amazing! It’s a given to say that the clothing is absolutely gorgeous, but so are the hearts of the women (and man
who work hard and live out their dreams. I have been especially touched by the way you help friends in need. I don’t personally know any of you, but I feel like I catch a glimpse of your hearts through Matilda Jane Clothing…and I like what I see!!

Matilda Jane means a day of fun.
Matilda Jane means a day of comforting softness.
Matilda Jane means a day of twirling and dancing.
Matilda Jane means a day of compliments…”Where’d you get that dress? Love those pants!” etc.
Matilda Jane means, most importantly, a smile on my daughters face. A look of satisfaction as she puts her outfits together and is proud of her sense of self.
Thank you for getting me “out of the box” and into something fun for my daughter….and occassionally for myself!F
Would love the EXPLORE! She can wear the 8′s and we will share the 2′s with a dear friend.
Matilda Jane clothing means to me that my little girls get to dress like little girls. With all the charm and beauty that goes with it. Somethng that is just not possible with chain store clothing. I am interested in summertime.
I love that Matilda Jane is so unique- you will not see every girl in town with the same outfit on. I love the compliments that my little peanut recieves everytime she wears any MJ piece. I love that mommies can wear MJ too! I love that even though MJ is growing in leaps and bounds, you take time to get to know your customers through Art Fair, Facebook, etc. Most importantly,I love that MJ gives back to the community, as there is nothing more important than giving back!
Matilda Jane means that I get to dress my little girl like a little girl, not like a small adult. She gets to wear clothes that are not only age appropriate but uniquely darling and comfortable. And it also means when we go out I get to hear lots of people say “did you see that little girl she is so cute I wonder where she gets her clothes” and that means I get to smile inside. Summertime
oops- Summertime or even Sweetshop:)
I am almost ashamed to share, but I had very bad postpartum depression and a difficult time bonding with my daughter. When I discovered Matilda Jane Clothing, I was finally able to realize that these beautiful and unique clothes highlighted so much about my daughter that is beautiful and unique. It was like a breakthrough for us that started with “just clothes” and has opened the door to a real mother/daughter relationship. I like “Summertime” because she is now my SUNSHINE and my world.
They were epic displays indeed. SERENDIPITY is what I think of now when I think of Matilda Jane. Matilda Jane has afforded me and my girls such wonderful experiences… The opportunity to meet with our girlfriends from all over the country is one. Through that journey I discovered that my dad lives exactly halfway from my home and 435… So as an added bonus to that amazing girls weekend, my girls and I got to spend some time getting to know my dad, who I haven’t had a relationship with until now! Yep, serendipity.
First off, i am nearly positive that i bid on the “explore” display!! wasn’t that the one in the front right corner? by the bathrooms? if so, i even spoke with one of you ladies while bidding!? Anyway, i llove that matilda jane has given just me and my dd something for JUST THE 2 OF US… no brothers, no daddy, just us. She takes pride in it and has an xtra bounce to her step. i love that! and i love that it is ‘our thing’.
Matilda Jane represents what I wish I could have been as a young girl-fun, confident, and just me. For us, it’s not about the clothes, it’s about teaching my kids that it’s ok to be different from everyone else. Figure out what you love, and do it. I never dreamt I’d be able to give my daughter such a beautiful closet. She just loves the uniqueness of MJ. Any display is fine. Sizes 6 or 8 are good.
Matilda Jane gives me the chance to express myself through fashion! I LOVE wearing clothes that are not “cookie cutter”. I love that you have such generous hearts that inspire others to pay it forward! Sweetshop is amazing! Thx L
“To be a star, you must shine your own light, follow your own path, and don’t worry about the darkness, for that is when the stars shine brightest”
Matilda Jane gives my girls the inspiration and the confidence they need to do just this!! Thank you MJC!!!

Matilda Jane means that no matter what my kids pick out to wear, they will most like coordinate with each other. It means, no one is fighting me over getting dressed to go somewhere; but most importantly, MATILDA JANE means another small business success story right here in the great USA-kudos!! GOD BLESS AMERICAN AND HAVE A FABULOUS 4th!
As a college student with 18 and 6 year old sisters, it is so fun for us to all be buying from the same, “unpredictable” clothing company! Matilda Jane supplies age appropriate and adorable clothing for all ages. My sisters and I never cease to be complimented when wearing MJ:) It is a joy to primp and dress up my younger sister, so I couldn’t resist commenting for her sake:) Explore would fit her best, and thank you for all you do for the fans!!
‘Tilda Ma Jane (as my 6 year old son calls it), simply means unique with an extra special touch of sweetness! When my daughter and I wear our MJC, we feel special and beautiful on the INSIDE and OUTSIDE. The compliments we receive are flattering and it makes me proud to tell them about the unique clothes and the giving (and sweet) MJC family! As woman, what is more important than feeling unique and sweet! (Thanks for the chance to win the Summertime collection for my size 4 daughter.)
p.s. – and i would be blessed to have any display. my girls are size 2s and 6s.
Matilda Jane means smiles and happiness! Watching my daughter and her friends show up at events and functions in unique clothes to show their individual uniquness makes me smile. MJ allows my daughter beauty to shine through. MJ is walking art with my daughter as the model!
Matilda Jane means JOY! Joy to the little girls that wear the unique outfits and twirl in them. Joy to the mommies that watch their little ones twirl. Joy to the mommies across the country that have created friendships just because of their common love for Matilda Jane Clothing! Interested in Sweetshop or Explore. Thank you!
And I will take any of it but am especially interesed in Summertime since she is 18 months:)
Summertime Display
Matilda Jane to us is my little Ava Claire smiling and twirling around wherever she goes. It is the excitement on her face opening a new box of goodies and timelessness of the quality and talent that each piece is made with! We Love you MJC 
Matilda Jane means that my baby girl won’t grumble when she gets her sister’s hand-me-downs. It means wonderful ladies who give back to their community, while encouraging and inspiring the rest of us to do the same. It means camaraderie and fun – you can see it in the pictures and “photo love.” It means I take so many pictures of my girls in Matilda Jane because I don’t want to forget one single smile! Matilda Jane means the world to so many sweet little girls whose faces light up when they see the label on the box; even more than their mothers do! (Anything at all will do – you guys are so awesome – but Sweetshop and Explore match our sizes best.) Thanks for all you do!
To my daughter and I Matilda Jane means giving back, expressing yourself, love, friendship and having the time of your life!! Explore size 8!
While I have only been able to purchase two MJ items so far (one for me and one for my DD), I love to drool over all the cuteness & happiness MJ has brought to so many girls!!!! I know I feel special when I wear my one MJ pieces, as does my DD. Even though every MJ piece is beyond beautiful, I love what Denise all the sweet people of MJ stand for-generous, loving and down to earth!!! I would feel beyond blessed to win anything but the sizes of the summertime would work the best
Matilda Jane to me and my little cutie, is simple childhood sweetness. She still looks like a little girl in these clothes and she looks so darn cute, not that she isn’t already adorable!
I just love it all! Summertime or Sweetness would fit Miss C! THanks for offering these up!
Uniquely different, artistic flair, feminine fun and beautiful just like the girls that wear them. I just adore MJ’s style – my daughter always looks adorable and they get admired every time. Summertime would be my choice but with a bity two year old she’ll wear all of them at some point! Thanks for being so generous with the extras!
Matilda Jane means compliments and some MAJOR Cuteness for my little Gwen! It is also a clothing company that makes me feel good knowing my daughter looks like the little girl she is rather than a 5 year old teenager. I know she is comfortable and looks adorable. It means a lot to have her looking so cute! Thank you Matilda Jane!
Sweetshop
Matilda Jane means my sweet little princess gets to be a princess every day!! It means I get to see her smile when everyone compliments her on how cute she looks!! It means my little girl feels confident and beautiful everyday, which every little girl/woman should be able to do! Oh and the cute little boy she likes loves her MJ and compliments her on it ALL the time, that make us both smile
Summertime or Sweetshop would work great for us!!
I love that it reminds me of what is most important in my daughter’s fleeting childhood: laughing, frolicking, smiling and dancing to the beat of her own drum. I love that when she’s wearing her Matilda Jane she feels that when she twirls, the whole world twirls with her. We’d love to have some sweetshop!! Thanks for the opportunity!
Matilda Jane is a fun and unique way to show off my daughter’s personality. It makes me smile every time she wears it. The company is also so fun and generous that it’s hard not to get hooked. (summertime)
What Matilda Jane means to me…..being a free spirit, epressing who you are inside and out. It means laughing, smiling, having a fun time. It means sweatness like a twirly colorful lollipop
(summertime or sweatshop)
Matilda Jane reminds me how it feels to be a little girl again! To love who I am and to take pride in myself and love where I came from! It is like wearing a piece of art. It’s like a clean slate everytime in which u create a new master piece! Girls size 4 and 8. Not picky on displays.. Just grateful! Any will do
It truly means friendship to me. MJC has been my gateway to meeting some incredible moms at the trunk shows, the chat boards, and the 435 line. How many lifelong friends would I have missed if I had never found MJC? Too many, that’s for sure!
A group of friends who are like family working together to create beautiful, unique and quality clothing . . . Providing positive, friendly and professional service to each and every client, business partner and customer . . . Building relationship and fashioning memories that will last a lifetime . . . This is what Matilda Jane means to me which puts a huge smile on my face and warmth in my heart while at the same time making my precious 2.5 yr. old daughter feel special and pretty! Thank you for everything! :O) — (Summertime or Sweetshop)
oh, and I’d pick explore
Beautful! Fantastic! Whimsical! Comfortable! In love!
Interested in the Sweetshop for my two gumdrops!!!
OH my goodness, I am 100% sincere when I say that seeing my three-year-old in her adorable, gorgeous Matilda Jane brings me to a very, very happy place!!! It literally lifts me up seeing her cheery, sweet face and having clothes that compliment her personality and demeanor. Even if she isn’t with me part of the day, I think of her and visualize her all bubbly and adorable in her fabulous, fabulous MJ attire to help get me through the day!!!! She loves waking up in the morning and putting on her pretty, pretty dresses and princess shoes….
I have to say, thank you very much for offering this giveaway!! I live in Oregon, too far from Art Fair, and I absolutley LOVE the AF pieces!! I have purchased MJ for Hadley since she was 8 months old. I love the uniqueness, quality, comfort and durability of your clothes!! We wear them practically everyday, even to the ballpark to watch her brother and sister play ball! Thank you soooooooo much for what you do!! I also think very highly of MJC for what you do for people, communities and charities!!
I would choose the Sweet Shop, simply for the sizes – size 6 for Hadley and size 2 for her cousin, Lily! I love all of the displays!
Matilda Jane to me: Smiles, laughter, giving, love, cuteness, friendship! Matilda Jane Clothing has great owner and employees That really do care and love to those Happy smiles!
When I think of Matilda Jane I think of sweetness! Sweetness in my little girl feeling pretty and sweetness in friendships made. Because of Matilda Jane I’m now friends with my trunk keeper Nicole and Monika Mc. a photographer that lives on the opposite coast from me. It is a network of women who have common goals in our lives and for our children. It is so much bigger than a clothing company. I would be interested in the explore display
Thanks!
Matilda Jane…captures the essence of youth and childhood allowing girls to dress like little girls and not little women. The colors and materials remind me of colors and combinations girls create which allow each girl to show off their individual personalities bringing happiness, joy and laughter. (Sweetshop or Explore)
To me it means Love and frienship because I love to watch my daughter twirling and at times digging while playing in her matilda jane outfits. Friendship because I have met a couple really nice moms through mj. Whenever Ella is wearing mj and someone askes where we got it, her response is always without hesistation “in the mail”. I cherish those moments. We would love the Summertime display!!
Matilda Jane Clothing is dresses that make my daughter want to twirl or play. It’s confidence when my little sister proudly wears her skirts to school. It’s smiles when I pick my daughter’s outfit out in the morning.
Summertime (But really, any of them would be amazing!)
What it means to be a little girl.
When she grows up, she will look back and remember her youth as an amazing journey spread out in colorful dresses and billowy ruffles. Where innocence is kept locked away in your heart.
Why she stares in the mirror and says ” I look beautiful Mommy.”
How that sweet smile appears in every twirl and every curtsy to the song in her head.
We love you gals! ~Summertime Collection~
Matilda Jane means my little girl can actually dress like a little girl. She can wear a sweet twirly dress, tank with a bow, or lace-edged socks. It means I can paint her little toes pink to match her favorite Matilda outfit (as she says) and both of us are happy. With life moving so fast and so many outside influences around, I’m so happy that my Leah Grace can dress in sweet, modest, adorable, precious, comfortable Matilda Jane clothes.
I’d love explore so I can dress my little girl and my baby girl! Thank you.
Your clothes put a smile on my face. My little peanut lights up when she wears your clothes. She is tiny but mighty just like Matilda Jane! Summertime or Sweetshop would work best!
Every time my 5 year old sees a MJC box her eyes light up and she giggles with excitement. For us, MJ means happiness not only for her, but for the mom who wants her young child to look 5 not 5 going on 18. It also means caring and loving. The kindness and caring values of MJC seem to perculate through those who consider themselves (or should consider themselves =) MJ junkies. For us its not only clothes, but inspiration to be better people.
Oh darn I meant Sweet Shop! I’m sorry!!
Ooopps… I meant Sweetshop display. Thanks again.
Explore sorry got that
I could list a million reasons why my daughter and i love Matilda Jane but i can sum it up in just two words: Pure Happiness
Explore
Matilda Jane means to me that I am a mom with good taste. My daughters love the clothings and have been saying no to other brands. My photographer loves to see the girls in Matilda Jane clothes. He said the clothes make it so easy for him to photoshoot.
(Sweetshop is my pick)
After wanting, wishing, and waiting to be a mother for years and years, my ray of sunshine came to us from the island of Taiwan.
For this mother and daughter, opening up a box of Matilda Jane is sweeter than candy. “Oh, Mama! Let’s open up my package!” and out comes flowers, butterflies, stripes, polka dots, ribbons, ruffles, and bows. Her eyes flicker with glee, a dimpled smile is revealed once again, and she dances in circles with delight as the fabric swirls around her. In a world where kids grow up too fast, Matilda Jane helps us savor the sweetness of our precious little girls for as long as we can.
I found that matilda Jane allows my daughter to shine in her own way. I think all the different colors and designs make the clothing so unique and then they all come together to be so beautiful. It describes how my daughter is, unique, colorful and beautiful in her own way!
We like the Explore!
Matilda Jane has come to mean so much to me!
At first it was the feeling of returning to my childhood, ah the nostalgia! Think Hollie Hobbie, strawberry shortcake and those awesome tins of lipgloss all rolled into one. But between your examples of kindness and relationships I’ve formed it’s come to mean so much more! I’ve met wonderful gals through MJ and made very special memories that all began with a knotdress!
Thank you! and i’m happy with any display as I have wonderful friends that can wear the sizes if we can’t.
“Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens,Brown paper packages tied up with string…”these are a few of my favorite things, and they sum up what Matilda Jane means to me. Matilda Jane perfectly evokes for me the innocence and joy of that song. MJ is truly a “when the dog bites, when the bee stings” kind of a favorite thing, and those things are special,far and few-between.
Sweetshop, please, would be my choice, should I be lucky enough to win.
Explore. To me Matilda Jane means safety. I love being able to dress my six year old in clothes that represent her innocence. I don’t want my six year old dressing like my sixteen year old (unless the sixteen year old is wearing MJC too
. I also love supporting a company that does so much to bless others too.
To me Matilda Jane is a special victory kinda like Charlie and the chocolate factory and his golden ticket we dont have an entire closet full but the ones we have are very cherished because we were actually able to obtain them. So when we wear them its like carrying a golden ticket because sometimes we dont pick the pieces we get it feels like they pick us. Sweetshop
Matilda Jane is so special to me!!! I feel special when my daughter wears hers and gets tons of compliments. I feel special and blessed to have met so many other great mamas locally and online that share the same love and passion that I do for this sweet clothing brand. I feel special to be a Jane for every release and share my MJC love with my friends and family. MJC is special clothes for special girls, with wonderful friendships, fun, and lots of love to go around – that’s what Matilda Jane means to me.
(I’d be honored and excited to win any of the displays – as I’ve never won any MJ before.)
Pure and simple MJC means to me LOVE. I LOVE the way my girls look and feel in MJ and I LOVE the LOVE that was put into every piece we own. Since I didn’t have the opportunity to share the LOVE at Art Fair this year, we would be happy with any of the displays, although my daughters are 14m and 3, so the 1st and last would fit us best. Thank you.
Matilda Jane to me is more than just the smile I get but when you see that person walk by they see my daughter and they just smile back. It does not just give me or my daughter that glow but somehow shares the love back in just a quick moment. I have never in my life been able to do things alone. Maybe I was too shy or I might say the wrong thing, but I have met some lifelong friends I would have never met. Matilda Jane just brings a little bright ray of sunshine to anyone who comes in contact with. (summertime)
Matilda Jane is everything childhood should be to me. They are sweet, fun, quirky, and innocent clothes that allow my daughter be a little girl. They are clothes filled with love and therefore the love shines through on her face when she wears them. Madison and I would be happy with any collection
What does Matilda Jane mean to me? Pride….pride in family of which I have found in Matilda Jane, in the friends I have made but not met, in the way we love to love others and give unconditionally. For me personally, I melt each time my husband who makes comments about how much time (and money)I spend in dressing our only daughter (she is the youngest and has 3 older brothers) only to find him on outings proudly holding her hand or carrying her around. He just beams when she gets compliments for her cuteness! It is almost like he is taking credit for her outfit. lol It just makes all the “comments” about getting the clothes all worth it….PRIDE!
**Elliana wears a size 2, I would be thrilled with any of the collections. Thank you!!
WOW!!! Beyond the beautiful and oh so yummy/comfy clothes, it’s so much more! My beautiful daughter lights up with any mention of Matilda Jane, she has more confidence when she wears it and she still looks like a little girl! I also love that MJ is a company that truly loves their customers and gives back every chance they can. MJ also means having unique and unpredictable clothing that always turns heads! Thanks SO much for this wonderful opportunity.
We would love to have either Sweetshop or Explore (6′s & 8′s)
As a lifelong resident of Fort Wayne, it very exciting to see what Matilda Jane has done for our city. Matilda Jane has: enriched our art district / community, kept young professionals in the area, made people want travel to our city, has given back to so many local families in need, and simply aided in putting Fort Wayne on the map. Thank you for bringing so much enthusiasm, freshness, color, and charity to us and our community. And while you are doing all of this…you remain humble and continue to be one of us. Thank you for drawing out the true beauty of Fort Wayne (and also the natural beauty of our daughters).
oops! Meant sweetshop
sorry.
EXPLORE – E-veryday is an adventure waiting for the X-plosion of color to emerge from my daughters’ rooms. P-leasure written on their faces and mine. L-ove in every stitch and O-riginality evident in all the trimmings. R-eal people design and make these clothes. E-agerly awaiting the fall line!
Matilda Jane means to me- NO WORRIES on the days Daddy is “in charge” of dressing.
Everything matches no matter what. I Thank You SOOO much for that! I like Sweetshop and Explore.
What does Matilda Jane mean to me? Just plain FUN! Childhood is never boring, so why should our children’s clothes be? My daughter tends to gravitate towards the MJC in her closet because it makes her feel like a princess; it makes her dance, it makes her sing, it makes her twirl, it makes her shine. It makes the everyday mundane things, like going shopping and getting dressed, FUN! (Interested in ANY of the prizes, but Summertime is best for sizing.)
Charming uniqueness with twirls and smiles. Enchanted little treasures is what I think off!
….sweetshop or explore
When I go to my daughter’s closet I always go to Matilda Jane for an instant pulled together not to dressy not to casual look. Whether we go to church or stay home all day she can wear the same MJ outfit all day and be comfy and confident. Same goes for me – when I pull out an outfit is almost always includes a Matilda Jane piece. Lovely pieces that can mix and match with the lowest priced to highest priced things in our closets — that is what I love!~
Sweetshop or Explore…
Matilda Janes means that my daughter has the confidence she needs to be an individaul who stands out in a crowd. I was always the shy one and do not wish that on my daughter, Channing. I want Channing to be proud that she is a girl and not afraid to be different. Matilda Jane means my daughter is sweet, happy, strong and ready to tackle whatever comes her way. Matilda Jane is unique and so is my daughter.
Oops, Channing would need “Explore” if selected.
Have a Happy 4th of July Weekend!!!
Matilda Jane is not just a label or brand; it represents so much more than that. It’s about celebrating the joys of childhood – watching fireflies, wishing on a star, talking to the “man in the moon”, making “pinkie promise” kinda friends, and knowing that true beauty comes from within!
Matilda Jane reminds us of the importance of giving hope, building dreams…and reminds us of the true importance of helping others. It teaches us that kindness really does matter. The truth about Matilda Jane is that it represents so much more than can be put into words; it represents a way of life – a way of living, loving and giving
I would love summertime set…well, really, I’d love any of them!
Summertime, please.
Matilda Jane means seeing my little girl in the sweetest outfits. They are so fun and girly. I love how you can be creative mix and match different collections. She will be able to wear some of her pieces for several seasons. She is only 9 months old and I am excited to be able to buy her these beautiful clothes for many more years.
Matilda Jane means a feeling of comfort, not only in the fantastically, amazing clothes, but also, and even more importantly, finding it in your own skin. Because of the women of MJC, both the incredibly talented MJC crew and the fiercely loyal band of supporters that I now count as friends, I feel like I am finally comfortable. I can be who I want to be and in doing so, I will teach my daughter to always do the same. When we’re comfortable with who we are, we hold our head a little higher, smile a little brighter, and spread a little happiness everyday. You gals have given that to us…for that, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. (Sweetshop or Summertime, thanks for the chance, Sam!)
I think of our family as a fabric made of colorful patches–I come from the Ukraine and my patch would be made of linen. My husband, born and raised in the South would bring in a patch of cotton. And then there would be a patch of lush silk for our daughter who we adopted from China. When I look at the wild and grogeous combinations of fabrics and ribbons of Matilda Jane outfits, I think of the fabric of my family–so different and improbable and yet so well put together!
Oh, no! Forgot to say, I am intersted in Explore display
Matilda Jane Ribbons of happiness and laughter
Make Her Eyes fill with wonder and joy
Creative Love hot enough to melt your heart
Glistening Buttons That could Light the world
And just as it seems sweet enough, They wrap it in tissue and secure it with a bow
All this bundled into one package for my Sweet Matilda Jane Girl
MJC ~ WE LOVE YOU
Matilda Jane~ it’s a living picture..a world of happiness. Purity and innocense suspended in time. (Reminds me of the old ice cream shop my grandmother use to take to me..the smell of the homemade waffle cones. I remember that smell today) (All of MJ displays are wonderful!)
Matilda Jane ‘brand’ and ‘clothing’ has brightened the life of a dear family I know. My friend’s little girl was diagnosed with Cancer and when she found out she would be bald she was so worried about people thinking she was a boy. She told her mom that she wanted to wear a DRESS or SKIRT every day until her hair had grown back. An MJ trunk keeper caught wind of this and gathered SEVERAL items in her size and shipped them off to this sweet little girl. She now wears MJ every single day and feels like a princess! This is exactly why we LOVE and SUPPORT Matilda Jane!
(I would love any display…anything with Matilda Jane is amazing)
When my sweet litte Addy and I think of Matilda Jane, we think of carefree summertime memories. We think of breezy days by the beach and skipping through puddles left by afternoon thunderstorms. We think of lollipops, cupcakes, bubbles and balloons. We think of giggles and snuggles and bunny kisses, too. With each day comes the opportunity to make new memories and express ourselves in our own little ways, and we love to make these memories while wearing Matilda Jane! (We are interested in the summertime display).
I am the mother of 1 yr old triplets. When I see MJC I think of freedom! Simply stated, youthful freedom! Summertime would work best for us! Many thanks!
I would love summertime or sweetshop.
I have 2 little girls who love to be fancy. Everytime they see the MJ outfits they get so excited. I am happy because of the quality of the clothing and the heart of the company and they are thrilled to wear it.
My best friend has 3 girls and a boy and always dresses her girls in the sweetest MJ outfits so when I found out I was having a girl (I already have 3 boys!) I was so excited. My dream come true! I get to have a MJ collection for my own daughter and share all the Mj excitement with my best friend! After dressing my boys for the past 8 years you have no idea how much fun it has been to have the most adorable clothes on the planet from your company! THANK YOU!
would love either sweetshop or summertime! (I’ll share the bigger sizes with my BFF for sure!)
OH for got to include my Display ~ SWeetShop ~
I love Matilda Jane because my little girls face lights up when she wears it. This company has hands down the best, most amazing customer service I’ve ever experienced and no matter where we are if my daughter Mj is wearing her mjc you are guaranteed a compliment and she loves it! (I’d love the sweet shop display! Who doesn’t love sweets?)
Oops! Sweetshop or Explorer would fit best for us. Thanks!
My daughter feels girly and confident in her Matilda Jane outfits; Mommy loves them too because they are so creative and fun. It’s also great when someone compliments your child on their adorable outfit! Thanks for making such fun clothing! I’d really love the Explore collection.
FRIENDSHIP – I have met the most wonderful group of friends because of you. Thank you.
GENUINE GINORMOUS SMILES – From my daughter when she puts MJ on and from others who see her so happy in MJ.
OHHHH IT FEELS SO GOOD! – It makes her feel so comfy and beautiful at the same time.
TIMELESS BUT WITH FUN FLAIR- So much to save in the boxes for her daughter’s when she has one or some.
EXCITEMENT/ANTICIPATION – Can it really get any better! (next release)
We are so thankful for you to share MJ with us! We love it so.
We love the Sweet Shop or Summertime. She is a size 2
We just started our addiction with MJ back in March after I went to my first trunk show. Since then, I can’t get enough for my daughter and myself. The best way to describe how I feel when I am wearing MJ is that “it makes me heart smile!” My daughter, who just turned 2 always says, “awww, cute,” when we put her in MJ. I love the summertime display! Great work!
Matilda Jane Clothing is the start of happiness in our day, it inspires us to be young and be pretty at play. Matilda Jane Clothing lets my girls stay little girls and makes memories twirl after twirl. Matilda Jane Clothing is also a hobby for me, I dream of one day winning a shopping spree. Oh Matilda Jane Clothing we LOVE you each and everyday in every way!
Explore, because it’s what my girls do best wearing MJ. We would be grateful for any of them since we weren’t able to go to Art Fair.

Matilda Jane is the epitome of childhood innocence. It is girly and pretty yet modern at the same time. Sweet but never saccharine, eye-catching but never glitzy, colorful but never gaudy.
My choice would be Sweetshop.
Matilda Jane to me is pure joy, sweetness, and girly charm that can’t be found anywhere else. MJC as a company is unique, heartfelt and above all, generous and genuine! LOVE this company! {explore or sweetshop}
I’d love the Explore. MJC, to me, means clothing that my size 12, 5th grade daughter and I can agree on. It’s not skimpy or “unladylike”, but she still thinks it’s cool. She looks perfectly stylish whether she’s in Lafayette or London, and she’s comfortable, too. It’s European and vintage American all at the same time.
Matilda Jane means to me that I get to buy clothes for my one and only granddaughter that her mom actually aproves of without me having to ask first . It means she’s not going to look like everyone else. It means that i’m buying from a company that is genuinely compassionate and cares for others. And these reasons make her the prettiest girl in the room
Summertime
A child is the world’s most perfect creation, clothes typically distract from their beauty. Matilda Jane is different, it defines their playful innocence. MJC to me, is simply that-innocent, playful, sweet… Laura Ingalls in Disneyland.
Explore- size 8
Matilda Jane has quickly become a passion, a retreat, and a big smile every time a new piece comes through the door. These are clothes that my girls are excited to wear, and that they are proud to care for and that I am excited to buy for them. Since being introduced to MJ, I’ve made quite a few ‘friends from afar’ and became closer with those ‘real time friends,’ as the gorgeous items have given us more to bond over. It’s been a little bit of necessary sweetness in a world that can sometimes be so sour.
I came into this world to be one thing…a Mommy…and Matilda Jane reminds me of everything that I dreamed of for my little girls. My girls can let their little star SHINE in the bright patterns, DANCE their hearts our in their twirling skirts, and be their UNIQUE little selves with the one of a kind designs. Just like my little girls (and boy), the Matilda Jane pieces steal my heart everytime I see them!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
OH SO PRETTY, SWEET SHOP Please (!!) for my 1 Year old and 5 year old’s birthday which is a Sweet Shop Theme!!
Oh gosh! Matilda Jane! The name just gives me visions of everything sweet and cute. I la la love how my daughter smiles when she wears Matilda Jane. I just la la love looking at all of the sweet patterns and how they mix together so perfectly. It’s all cupcakes, rainbows, and lollipops! <3 Thank you! (Explore)
To me, Matlida Jane is the very essence of a sweet, beautiful childhood. My four year daughter,Taylor Jean, knows nothing of “labels” but when she wears her “Field Trip” peasant dress the biggest most amazing smile appears on her face. I know she feels special and pretty, so important to any growing little girl. The way she twirls around while sweetly giggling in her Matilda Jane dress always brings a smile to my face and brings back childhood memories of my own. Sweetshop would be perfect for Taylor, it looks like lots of twirling!
MJC has enabled me to dress my sweet little girl in the most beautiful clothing. To dress her how little girls are meant to be dressed, innocent, sweet and pure, etc. We cannot say enough great things about Matilda Jane and I am so happy to have been introduced to it 2yrs ago. Artfair was a fantastic experience and I would love to have something from any of the displays (daughter is size 2).
And I would love the Sweetshop set if chosen! I have a tendency to buy mostly for my older girl so that they can be passed down, so all of the size 2s in this set would be so loved by my younger daughter who doesn’t get much for ‘just her.’
I have been checking out MJ now for about 3 years. I just drool over all of the colors and fabulous outfits. I am now FINALLY having a baby girl!!! I am sooooo excited that i will soon get to see her and get her dressed up in MJ!! Thank you and Keep making us all smile:)
Matilda Jane means so much to my little girl, it is all she wants to wear! It is not only gorgeous and well made but it is something unique and indulgent. We would rather go without some of lifes silly little things and spend more on Matilda Jane especially when you see your little girl spinning around in her favorite knot dress ! Thank you for your continued excellence not only with the clothes you make but with the care and consideration of your whole staff. Even though we have yet to meet any of you in person we feel like you are a little part of our life.
.. keeping our fingers crossed !!!
EXPLORE please
My daughter, Gigi, has always been sadly…well, overlooked. So its been a joy to see her blossum with every compliment she receives about her beautiful Matilda Jane. She is so confident when she is wearing MJ and walks with her head held high. I cannot even put into words what that means to me as her mother but it is a joy to witness.
Friendship and wonderful memories wrapped up in the gorgeous patterns and colorful inspiration of life. Life is just precious and way too short, but constantly changing and evolving. Matilda Jane gives my daughter and I a fun and spirited, yet modest way of expressing our inner joy and letting our unique personalities shine! We meet people every day through the clothes and accessories and love it! Whether it is walking through McDonald’s for a DIET COKE or visiting with new friends at a trunk show – we are always making new friends. Thank you – EXPLORE!
Matlida Jane Clothing lights up little, precious, faces throughout the world… Time we get to spend with our little girls races by in an instant, so that is why having a special dress or outfit makes that time, to be a little girl, as cute as can be. They love to be comfortable and mostly have fun. We love our MJC and most of all we love the hearts that get poured into making these clothes! (summertime or sweetshop)
To me, Matilda Jane always means generosity and fun. I’m amazed by Denise’s big heart in all she does and that love and joy translates to her clothing so well. It puts a smile on my face whenever I think about it.
I’d love to win the Sweetshop one.
Matilda Jane is a sweet group of girls who are filled with kindness and generosity.
A special place where clothes are dreamed up that are simply pretty and show a child’s joyful innocence.
MJ is a medley of girls who know and care about their customers and the little girls who wear their delights with a skip in their step~
Matilda Jane is a place/thought/company that makes our family smile
Summertime would be amazing~
My daugther told me the other day that “Tilda Jane” makes her heart happy. I couldn’t agree more! Whenever I see a piece on her….it just makes my heart smile. That is all….no fancy story just makes my heart smile:) And, interested in the Sweetshop size 6 <3.
For me Matilda Jane means confidence. Girls can be so harsh,even as young as second grade. Knowing that my daughters can walk into school feelng good about themselves means the world to me. MJC makes my girls feel god and as a mom there is nothng better than confident children! Thank you Matilda Jane

In this day and age of girls always worrying about their hair, their face, their body, Matilda Jane clothes have a way of making every little girl feel absolutely gorgeous. The self awareness of their own beauty is starting too young with girls these days and it makes some girls feel badly about themselves if they don’t feel pretty enough. Matilda Jane clothes are made with love and beauty and all a little girl has to do is put on a Matilda Jane creation, spin around and she instantly feels like a beautiful princess! Explore collection, please.
Matilda Jane makes me think of the generations of women in my family who have sewn the clothes for all of us girls who have become strong, beautiful women. I imagine my mother- tirelessly sewing my dolls dresses to match my own for my fifth birthday with the leftover scrap fabric because there was no money for store-bought gifts. I recall my particular love for one stretchy,rainbow hued belt that I used to accessorize EVERY outfit I owned for a good number of years…and how that was OK. Those happy little girls in every Matilda Jane photo remind me of myself as a free-spirited little angel- and how a pretty dress could make even a poor little girl feel like a million bucks. I imagine that is how the winner of the “give a girl a closet” benefit will feel as she feels the love that is Matilda Jane washing over her as she slips on that first perfect frock. ** We have three girls so winning an of the displays would be a blessing and all of the sizes would be put to good use for years to come*** Thanks!
My choice would be EXPLORE. Matilda Jane means more to me than I can put into words, seriously! The fact that I knew you, dear Sam, wrote this blog post before I even got to the bottom of it is one reason… the feeling that I know you ladies makes all the difference not just for me, but also my girls. They associate your clothes with friendship & love… and what other clothing company does that?? NONE!! Peace out =D!
If I could only pick one word about what Matilda Jane means to me, it would be SPUNK! The clothes are spunky, not your everyday, run of the mill stuff. And when my daughter puts them on, she turns into a spunky little girl, full of life and cuteness! (sweet shop)
“To be a star, you must shine your own light, follow your own path, and don’t worry about the darkness, for that is when the stars shine brightest”
Matilda Jane Is the confidence and encouragement for my girls to live by this every day!! With 2 girls we would feel blessed to have any of the 3
Sam If this posted twice I am so sorry!! Totally not intentional!!!
Matilda Jane is cuteness and sweetness wrapped up with some individuality which makes these clothes so unique and that’s why I’m in love. I’m also addicted to how adorable my little one looks and feels in these clothes. Plus the cherry on top is how generous you all are. Habitat for Humanity tugs at my heart due to the absolute kindness and it’s amazing that you’re contributing to their efforts. I think Matilda Jane means love for all! (Summertime)
As a company, Matilda Jane is an inspiration. It is, in the spirit of Independence Day, an example of the American Dream. Someone took their passion and turned it into a hugely successful business that not only brings joy to their customers and the charities it gives so generously to, but also to their employees whose love for what they do is simply contagious to all. The result is clothing that is what everyone here has been describing: fun, unique, reminiscent of the innocence of childhood. All wrapped in a fantastic success story that we all are quite proud to be a part of.
I would love Sweetshop or Explore.
Details! The details that going into MJ clothing designs are what I love best and keep me coming back for more. From the fun fabrics, to the buttons, trim, flowers, ruffles, you name it, I love it! It’s the attention and thought that goes into all the details that I love most! We’d love Explore!
Matilda Jane is a smile on my face, sweetness around my waist and joy without haste. It’s my daughters giggling belly as she runs around in her Ellie. Its summer fun and winter warm, anything but plain….our sweet Matilda Jane!! We woul love the “sweet shop” if we are picked!!! Thanks for all you do for us MJ fans and our community!
Matilda Jane means sweetness, uniqueness, and girliness (not sure if that is a word). I have 4 girls age 7 down to 7 months and I love that they look like little girls, not “pop princesses.” I love that my girls dont mind standing out in a crowd and dont worry about fitting in, that is an invaluable thing that you have given to all of our daughters in this society where they are taught to fit in. I also love what you do for others and it makes me happy to think that I have contributed to this in any way. Because I have so many girls in so many sizes
any of the displays would work for us!! Thanks for this chance!

Matilda Jane reminds me of the saying “marches to the beat of a different drummer.” In the world of the great Matilda Jane, you don’t need to dress like everyone else does. My 10 year old compares your clothes to songs like Firework and Who Says: she says they let you be proud of who YOU want to be. It makes me so happy when she comes home and tells me not only her teacher loves her clothes, but her friends in Abercrombie and Aeropostale love it too! I will continue to savor every moment she can fit in Matilda Jane!
Matilda Jane is fresh and fun, just like the girl who I buy it for. Ellis likes to look cute and stylish, and MJC fits the bill. Some of our MJC outfits hold special memories – a trip to the beach, Disney, a party, or a family picture. Some favorites are worn over and over, to her brother’s ballgames, speech, church, or the store. No matter which outfit it is, it is sure to guarantee a smile from her and a compliment from someone else!! Sweetshop or Explore would be her sizes!
When I see someone else’s daughter in Matilda Jane I know I’ve met a kindred spirit. Someone I can strike up a conversation with, and we can gush about how much we love Matilda Jane and how precious our children are in it! To me Matilda Jane means friendship, individuality, and a mutual love of fun fashion! I would be happy with any display, but first choice would be summertime.
Bella means beautiful in both Italian and Spanish and that is just what my Bella is- beautiful. We adopted our angel-in- training from Guatemala and have loved watching her sweet and unpredictable spirit emerge each day. Matilda Jane has been part of her journey since she was two and now at nearly five, she still shines both on the inside and on the outside. Her spunky spirit is matched by MJC unique styles, vibrant colors, and creative elements. Bella and Matilda Jane are best friends!!!
(summertime or sweetshop)
Matilda Jane means my 3 year old gets to dress as whimsical, flirty and as feminine as she wants to, to show her girly soul and look amazingly delicious while playing the tom-boy games she loves! My 12 month old daughter is now wearing Edyee’s hand-me-down MJ’s and I think I love them even more the 2nd time around, her personality is completely different and shows off the same clothes in a whole new light. It’s obvious that every fabric pairing, trim selection, button picking and stitch is made with love and by people who care about community and helping make the world a better place! I can’t wait for my 9 month old niece to start wearing our MJ’s next – I bet the 3rd time will be a charm-er for sure!
We would <3 Sweetshop or Summertime.
Matilda Jane to me is unique clothing that shows off my girls beautiful unique personalities. The sweet smiles my girls have when wearing their MJ clothes is priceless to me. I have also enjoyed making wonderful friendships that I know will last way beyond our MJ clothes wearing days! Thank you for all of the memories I’ve made and the many more to come! (Sweet Shop & Summertime)
I’ve been an MJ customer for a long time and in all those years my favorite thing about MJ is hearing (or overhearing) people say how my daughter wears the best clothes. I also love the confidence she has to be different because she dresses differently. Thanks for making such beautiful clothes. I have an 8 year old (usually size 10) daughter and a nine-month old niece so probably the Explore display but even if there is nothing that fits my daughter I’m sure we can spread the MJ love to our friends.
I love how awesome Matilda Jane makes my girls feel. The clothes are beautiful and innocent, just like my girls. I love that we can proudly wear them knowing they are made in the good ole’ USA
Sweetshop please!!!!
Sorry forgot to list which set i’d like…really any of the sets would be awesome cause I would love to share with a few friends but in order I would prefer Summertime, then Sweetshop, then Explore.
explore fits us best..
Matilda jane means my closets are bursting with FUN, colorful, comfortable clothing that is always a first pick when i want to feel girly and giddy! I love that my daughter and I both wear and love it.. and that my mighty acorn boys can join in with the fun! xoxo’s Tanya
My little Reese loves to twirl in her ruffle pants and girly dresses, and along with her name comes a sweetness that lights up the room. Don’t let her name fool you… She’s as sassy as she is sweet and MJ lets her show all her true colors with your spectrum. It’s as if you are looking into a kaleidoscope! Matilda Jane is a walking piece of Art with colors bursting!
Matilda Jane showcases each of my daughter’s individually for who they are and what they love, in each piece they wear. They can march to the beat of their own drums and look exceptionally adorable doing it. They love Matilda Jane and I love the confidence Matilda Jane gives them. But the other reason, the reason I will always come back is that you help the people that your customers love through “spread the love”, an auction for your #6, Habitat for Humanity,sometimes just sending people boxes to cheer them up. More than the beautiful clothing, that is what Matilda Jane really means to me..helping people, giving back
Explore
oops… We like Summertime or sweet shop. Size 2
Would love something for our sweet Karoline who is 3 months too!
To me, MJ means that my little one always has a chance to look ridiculously cute while feeling special, being comfortable, and expressing her individuality! Funky, fun, and fabulous!
Summertime, please
Matilda Jane is like a piece of old fashioned goodness. Timeless classics that withstand the test of time. Made with so much love and care with the feeling reminiscent of simpler times. Would love the chance to “explore”!
MJC means fun, funky and unique. I love the unpredictable-ness of it all and how I have made new friends through children’s clothing. Explore size 2 (love surprises)
MJC is the clothing line that is appropriate for any girl. The amazing quality of the pieces alongside the amazing DESIGNERS behind them make for the most amazing outfits. I’m proud to dress my girls in this line because I know I will NEVER be ashamed to say “That’s Matilda Jane!” I always get compliments and will continue to because we’ll always be a MJ family!
I love MJC because it’s not run of the mill clothing from a box store. It is special and you can tell it was designed/made with love. It has a youthful look that is perfect for girls unlike the Hannah Montana-esque stuff I would be faced to buy elsewhere. It is BEAUTIFUL and photographs like nothing else! Mostly, it makes my daughter happy! (Explore or sweetshop)
Woops, and i would love the summertime! we are in 2 and 4′s
To me, MATILDA JANE is a HOMEGROWN company that is a HOTLINE to girls fashion. From eastside to WESTSIDE, little girls look beautiful and feel great wearing their goods while eating a SACK LUNCH and treats from SUGARLAND. Whether we are on vacation at HAMMOND BAY, or on a FIELD TRIP, Matilda Jane supplies us all with beauty, comfort and joy. Dreams are filled with HOUSE OF CLOUDS , art fairs and fun to come
EXPLORE Display-thanks for the chance!
Matilda Jane is a smile on my face, Sweetness around my waist, happiness without haste. Its my daughters giggling belly when shes running around in her Ellie. Its Summer Fun and winter warmth Matilda Jane……anything but plain. We would love the “sweetness” Thank you so much for all you do for us MJ fans and our community!!
Matilda Jane means to me a connection to other girls & Moms, I have met some incredible people through MJC. It means big smiles, lots of twirls and TONS of compliments. My girls are so special & beautiful to us, why not show them off in more pretties!? We would love The Summertime set, but could make any of them work (3 girls here;) )
Matilda Jane has shown me a way to be artsy in fashion, bringing out mine and my daughter’s personality through clothes. I love that Matilda Jane has helped me shine through a depressive state of mind and helps show me what spreading the love and compassion is all about. That’s all that matter in the end afterall, isn’t it? I love the idea of Summertime display.
Matilda Jane let’s my husband I be the coolest Aunt and Uncle to walk face of the earth!! I love watching my niece light up when she not only see’s that we came to surprise her (she lives 5 hours away) but that we have Matilda Jane goodies just for her.
Matilda Jane has given me some of the sweetest memories with my niece that I will forever hold dear…. Now only if she would stop growing up ;( (explore size
Matilda Jane is a little funky, a little chic, and… a lot of fun!
Thank you for ALL that you do! Sweetshop or summertime
Matilda Jane means funky, spunky, sweet and colorful clothes for my wonderfully original little girl. But that’s just about the gorgeous clothes–if you go a little beyond the incredible surface it’s also about forging friendships, blazing trails (literally to Art Fair and figuratively from the confidence the clothes give you), and being the best you can be inside and out! MJ is bliss in the middle of the day when you see your little one twirling around in her ellie. My daughter feels so confident and beautiful in Matilda Jane–thank you for that–a little bit of MJ goodness means so much to us! (if I’m lucky enough to win, I would love the explore display. Thank you for the chance Sam!!)
What MJ means to me?
1st-It is what my girl means to me (LOVE),that’s why I buy it.:)
2nd-It makes me smile!
3rd-Comfy for my girl!
4th-Unique for my girl!
5th-Classy with a dash of FUN!!
Interested in Summertime all the way.
To me, Matilda Jane means my daughter shines, glows and stands out like the unique person she is. You just can’t find those colors, patterns and styles in any store. I love when my daughter wears one of her few MJ outfits (its sad, but we only have about 8 pieces) and someone stops me to ask about where her outfit came from. I happily share all I know about the fun-loving, unique and one of a kind company!
It would be truly a blessing to try and win the summertime set!
Super Sassy Chic! My daughter is forever those things and I find Matilda Jane fits right in with her style and personality! Thank you for the wonderful clothes and offering the opportunity to meet so many amazing mamas! “Explore” would definitely be my girl, Kylee!
Sweet simplicity. Quirky vintage. Extremely unique. Smiles all around
The Summertime collection is our top pic!
Images on Flickr sold the brand to me – clothes so beautiful that I just had to buy some. After having my first item shipped to UK I have realised that MJ is more than just a clothing company. It is company that encourages compassion, emphaty, friendship whilst at the same time offer a lot of cuteness. Due to the caring nation of the company, this makes the clothes mean even more to me. So thanks MJ for your passion and drive to change the world bite size and thanks for providing quality clothing full of cuteness whilst doing so.
Sweetshop or Summertime – too pretty to choose either or.
When i think of Matilda Jane I think of unique. Matilda Jane are the only clothes that either of us own that are so unique and something that you aren’t going to see around the block. We get comments from so many people about her adorable clothes. We just adopted a second baby girl last week, and literally one of the first thoughts that came to mind was…oh my, we will get another girls use out of our loved, adorable matilda Jane peices! Thank you so much for making such unique and beautiful clothing for my 2 girls(ok, and myself once in a while).

-To me MJ means unexplainable beauty. Clothing that reminds me of a time long ago. Childhood innocence. Pure Sweetness. -Would love the explore.
When my sister wears Matilda Jane, it brightens up my day. With all the beautiful colors in the month of May. When I see her spin and twirl, all the people say shes such a beautiful little
girl. Matilda Jane should bed shared with the world. I wrote this for my sister Jake(13).
Darling details. Delicious fabrics. Delightful surprises.
The stuff little (and big ) girl dreams are made of!
Ooops- Would love Explore, please.
My dear friend and co-worker, Jamie Hicks, revealed the world of MJ to me and I was immediately intoxicated in the beauty! It allows my daughter to express her unique and personality and quirky style in tween sizes. She loves that soon she will be matching her newborn sister in MJ dresses, since we can buy baby and tween sizes that match! My mother and I also love and wear MJ, so we now have 3 generations decked out in MJ! I am a graphic design/photography student, so I use MJ in photographs. The the pieces are so distinct, they help create beautiful, timeless photographs that can be cherished forever- I LOVE MJ!!! <3
I feel that Matilda Jane is a reflection of the people in Indiana, from the charm, how everything is so unique and how you give so much! Being from a very small town in Indiana, everyone is amazed when they see your clothing! It makes me SMILE to see her smile because she feels so beautiful.I love how giving you are, how you really could go big (and be bigger than Gymboree) but stay small, and work hard and we know it comes from your heart! (Summertime would work best for me-I have a very small 4 year old)
Matilda Jane means to me that my girls (almost 7 and 9) can still look like sweet little girls in a world that seems to force them to grow up too quickly! I also love that when they are wearing Matilda Jane my husband seems to notice it and ALWAYS commits on how beautiful they look
Oh yes, EXPLORE please 
.
Matilda Jane is an inspiration. I want to grab up my sewing machine and make a dress everytime I see a piece of MJ clothing. It is fun, functional and lovely all at the same time. It is classic and cozy on my little ones, and precious as can be. Meaningful And Thoughtful Individual Loving Delightful Attire!! Summertime:) Thank you!
Circa 1992 – Blind Melon video (No Rain), little bumblebee girl that finally finds her way to the open field with others just like her (family), epitomizes how MJC makes us feel! Our family and friends may not understand our love for MJC, but EVERY detail about MJC makes US smile. The love you share, the ideas you incorporate and knowing you make every little girl (and mama) feel unbelievable SPECIAL everytime they put on their MJC is undeniably true! Thank you for making my little girl (to be 7 soon!) stay young for as long as she can and just ENJOY being a little girl! We would love to suprise her with EXPLORE for her birthday (7/16)!
MJ clothing to me is fun, stylish, unique and a wow factor in girls clothes. I’d be interested in any display, my neice is 18months and I have plently of friends to give the bigger size to. Thanks!!
Matilda Jane enhances the uniqueness and beauty in each of my girls. MJ is unique, and my girls are EACH individuals that combine to make our family the whole that it is. There is nothing lovelier than simple pieces coming together to make one whole. Whether it be outfits or children in my family.
EXPLORE collection. Thanks.
The Matilda Jane brand is a rare gem in the world of children’s clothing. The clothing is of impeccable quality and style. More importantly, the brand reflects the care and concern for others, whether it be the employees and their families, the consumer, or families in need. I am proud to dress my little princess in dresses and ruffles that are more than just a brand, but one that makes this world a better place. (sweet shop or summertime)
Matilda Jane to me is the definition of free spirted. It shows our little girls that they can be quirky and unconvential and it’s not only just OK, it’s amazing. It captures the beauty and innocence of childhood and mixes it up with a handful of sass. It’s the softness of silky baby hair, it’s the spunk of a feisty three year old, it’s the blossoming of a pre-teen. It’s Matilda Jane, it’s all our girls – it’s perfection. (Sweetshop XO)
There is sooooo much to love about Matilda Jane, and not just how simply adorable it looks on EVERY single girl. The creativity and love that go into the making of each delicious piece is so evident AND inspiring to me as an artist! How can you not smile when you see all the pictures that are shared both by the MJ girls and all the facebook fans, and it is so much fun to see how proud all of us mommies are of our little darlings in your clothing. We have made so many friendships and connections because of Matilda Jane, and I don’t know a single other clothing company that can make this claim. I know I will always be a HUGE fan because I love how my peanut’s face lights up and how cute she dances and twirls when she wears your clothing. -Summertime because we are a 2!!! Thank you so much!
MJ means happiness in my daughter! Love seeing her smile ear to ear when she gets to pick out her clothes and dance around like she is a rock star! The lovely lady and crew behind the work is just wonderful. I know I can purchase MJ with no worries and in a great company that cares and puts time into the creativity! We would love the Explore!
I have a serious love/hate relationship with Matilda Jane Clothing….I love the way my daughter looks and feels when she is wearing it. Keeping innocence in children is very important. The part I hate about Matilda Jane Clothing is how much it empties my bank account. Will I keep buying it? YES….as long as my daughter will wear it or fit into it.
another OOPS post…..Explore please.
What a great contest thanks for letting me try.:)
Matilda Jane to me is all about letting my three year old daughter be amazingly cute, stylish and one of a kind. She loves her MJ clothes and picks them regularly to wear. She calls them her beautiful clothes, how can resist that. Love that you give my daughter (Addie) the chance to feel amazing!
So sorry! I completely forgot to put that all of the sets are amazing and we would be over the moon to have any of them. Addie is in a size 6 or 8 now. Thanks for the chance and sorry for two post.
matilda jane means big dreams do come true. its dressing my girls in more than just adorable clothes, its reminding them daily (bc we were it daily,ha), without words, to chase their dreams. Every stitch, every button and every ruffle is one of yalls dreams come true!
I ♥ how MJC makes my daughter feel special. I ♥ how cute MJC clothes are, yet modest at the same time (which is getting increasingly harder to find these days). I ♥ how soft the knits are! And I ♥ the generosity of MJC. Y’all have such great hearts.
Matilda Jane is so much more than just a clothing company to me. You give (just like right now) so much and encourage so many to pay it forward. If we had more company’s like yours what an amazing world we’d have. Thank you for always sharing the love and for your beautiful clothing. (Sweetshop and Summertime have more of the sizes we wear but I’d make any of them work if I was lucky enough to be picked
)
oh no, I forgot to add, I’d choose the “sweetshop” since it’s the sizes of my 2 girls.
oops forgot to say ive got my eye on explore maam
To me Matilda Jane means Beautiful, Uniques, special, comforting. You put it on and it’s like awww, that’s what was missing , and if you ask Sarah what MJC means to her, she’s 2, she would say ” Pretty”, that’s what she say every day when we dress her.
Summertime would work best for us.
Matilda Jane is timeless, giggly, innocent, swirly, girly fun!

Matilda Jane means friendship, good times and happiness. Matilda Jane means seeing my two year old light up at the packages she gets in the mail. Matilda Jane means seeing my two year old so soo excited to put on a dress. Matilda Jane means a lot to us; with us through good times and bad. Matilda Jane is a the best friend a little girl could have! Summertime or sweetshop would be amazing! Thanks :]
Matilda Jane means the very best “dress-up” corner ever! It is like in every girl’s room and in every preschool or kindergarten classroom. It means creativity, imagination, and of course being unpredictable. It is a variety of color & pattern, and a hodge podge of hats, scarves, bags, dresses, tops, & bottoms. You can dress up and be whatever you want to be and put things on be pretty!
What don’t I love about MJ?! It’s not even ALL about the clothes for me. I think it is amazing what you all do for the community and how you help boost girls/womens self esteem out of the kindness you your hearts. I would LOVE to work at 435 and I think about that all the time when I’m sitting at my desk at the office. I literally daydream about having your job! My little Emma loves to EXPLORE, so that would be the most appropriate to wish for. Thanks!
Ooops! I forgot to write that we would love the sweetshop!
We love the unique style and creativity of Matilda Jane. My daughter says “yippie” every time we receive a package from MJ. I love the way it showcases the beauty in my daughter. We receive loads of compliments when we wear out MJ!!
Matilda Jane means to me, that my little two year old wears the most adorable clothes I could ever have imagined her wearing!! To hear her say, “soft, pretty, dance, I wear it!” brings a smile to my face. I’ve also met some amazing people in my new venture with MJ and I love that! From the first purchase I made just a few months ago from my friend, I had no idea what kind of door I was opening and I hope it continues to be a great adventure!
*Summertime would be my first choice*
When I think of Matilda Jane.. I think of All the Sweetness of a little girl!! Those rosy little cheeks, that sweet little smile, and those beautiful big eyes filled with fun little girl dreams! Matilda Jane captures the true innocence of a little girls childhood adventures and dreams!

The title of my choice display “Explore,” eludes what Matilda Jane means to me. Exploring with all of the possibilities to mix and match clothing, you can’t go wrong with the cuteness and uniqueness. Matilda Jane allows children to explore their personalities and shout it out through their clothes. Whenever I think of a picture of a little girl in Matilda Jane, I envision her running through a field of wildflowers or down the shell covered beach; exploring.
MJC is funky and fun all rolled into one and it puts a smile on our faces!
Matilda Jane:
You know when you walking around doing something normal like reheating a slice of pizza in the microwave. Suddenly, you are overwhelmed by a feeling of absolute thankfulness and gratefulness . We can open the fridge when we are hungry, microwave it to make it warm, turn on the tap for some water: The simple things that we take for granted. Matilda Jane may be simplified as just clothing, but sometimes when I stop and think, I cannot help but overwhelmed by how lucky I am to own clothing so beautiful. I hope I never take it for granted.
*my pick would be for Summertime. Thank you!
I had no idea about your company until my daughter brought my granddaughter to the barn for her first horseback riding lesson with her grandfather in one of your outfits. Your company means that my daughter is always happy to dress HER daughter in something she’s proud of. Your company brings back memories of when I was a girl and my mother would make clothes for my sister and I. Then carrying on the tradition and make clothing for my daughter. Your clothing is beautiful. If I am chosen, anything you would be willing to send for my granddaughter would be appreciated.
MJ has given me friendship, inspiration and freedom of creativity. It is the love of childhood and the freedom we can do anything and still can as mommies. It is more then clothes it’s a community of love, friendship and all things beautiful. Motherhood is sometimes isolating and the friendships I have made and the excitement of the beautiful clothes, give me so much joy. Thanks so much!!!! Summertime
Memories…thats what MJC means to me…my photos of my girls when I am old, looking at them and loving them. My 3 girls smiles, in your clothes, at pre party and just feeling pretty in them. Thank you
I will have to say sweetshop display because again MJC reminds me of stepping into Willy Wonka magical chocolate room. “Inside this room, all of my dreams become realities, and some of my realities become dreams.” 435 gals you are the dream makers of dreams. You rock!
Matilda Jane clothing to my daughter means fun clothes that I don’t have to beg her to wear. The clothes are carefree goodies that seem to have laughter included in the stitches. Each piece of material beckons a simpler time and oozes true childhood. I think this is one reason all the mommies long for MJ pieces of our own! Thank you for brightening our lives with your creations! – We would LOVE the EXPLORE set – sight unseen. Thanks!
Matilda Jane brings such joy to my 3 girls and makes them smile every time they wear it. It gives them confidence to let their own personalities shine through. The clothes are made with such love and devotion from so many wonderful people and it makes me proud to support such a great company. Explore, is my choice, thanks so much.
When I think of MJC it makes me think of family most of all but also a giving spirit. The wonderful clothes are only part of the company, the spirit behind the label says it all. I would be most interested in Summertime display.
Forgot to add that I would be interested in the summertime or explore displays. Thanks!!
Matilda Jane means no fussing while getting ready in the mornings to go to pre-school so Mommy can get to her teaching job on time at 7:00 A.M.
It means twirling, dancing, laughing, and happiness for Kellee and Mommy too! 
I just asked Kellee, who is 4, what Matilda Jane means, and she put it best, she said, “It’s good!” 
Explore or Sweetshop would work for us so we could share with my BFF and her little girl.
Remember that song from the movie “top gun”, “take my breath away”? Well, that’s how Matilda Jane makes me feel everytime my babylove wears it and even more so each time I see a new piece! It means love, laughter, twirls and sweet innocence for my little girl and always brings lots of smiles our way! Thank y’all for such beautiful creations!!!
Summertime, sweetshop then explore…any of them!
What a nice contest! Matilda Jane is just one of the many ways for me to enjoy every moment of being a mommy to a little girl. It gives me one more reason to capture those moments that slip by so quickly. It’s a reason to dress up to have dinner with grandma, or to sit on the carousel horse they have in the park. It’s a pretty picture and a beautiful memory. (sweet shop)
To me, Matilda Jane represents the essence of childhood, and what it really means to a little girl. It is sugar and spice and everything nice. When I see my daughter wearing MJC, I see a beauty that shines from the inside out, and it instantly puts a smile on my face and in my heart. Matilda Jane means sweetness, and knowing that my little girl will stay looking sweet just a little bit longer.
(Sweetshop is our first choice, Summertime is our second choice)
Matilda Jane means to my family sunny smiles on warm or cold days, beauty in the little things, treasures to last a lifetime, and friendships found in the most unexpected places.
Sweet Shop please.
To me, Matilda Jane means compassion and caring. My friend’s 4-year old daughter was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer almost a year ago. Ava loved Matilda Jane and so did her mommy and when I wrote to you about her and when our trunk keeper did the same, you graciously loaded up a box full of goodies and sent them her way. She passed away a short four months after her diagnosis, but what you did for her family will last a lifetime. I know that you take the time to do things like this for other precious little ones and I can’t think of another company that would have such a love for others–the sweetness of your clothing is certainly an overflow of the sweetness of your big hearts, and for that I thank you with all of my heart.
I love to see my precious daughter in the artistic combinations of fabric, design and color characteristic of Matilda Jane clothing! Summertime please!
Matilda Jane makes me feel like I’m different from all the other girls at school and I love that. Matilda Jane means many personalities… like girly, tom-boy, funky spunky. I like knowing that some people at Matilda Jane might be afraid of whales and almost faint when they are nervous… oh, and talk gibberish too. If I win I would like the Explore set and I would give the size 2 stuff to my bff’s little sister.
forgot to add that any display would be amazing!! we’d love well and wear often anything you design!
It’s refreshing and anticipation looking forward to the new lines and imagining what colors and patterns are going to pop. It gives me a comforting feeling to be part of something so creative and special. And the fabrics photograph so nice and easy which is important for child photography. Yummo! Sweetshop size 6, s’il vous plait. Et merci for making my heart smile!! I am proud to support your past, current and future endeavors, being such a respected and philanthropic company.
1. The good ole days.
2. Reminds me of the county fair.
3. When my mom make my clothes when I was a little girl.
4. Flea markets.
5. You know when you were a little girl and you used to wear what made you happy regardless of colors or styles, or what your mother said, it was the best of everything…that’s MJ.
What MJC means to me? Hmmmm, if I had to describe it in one sentence, it’d go something like this… “Matilda Jance is a mothers way of expressing her childs uniqueness, sweetness and all around girly character in a fashionable yet chic kind of way”. Explore would be my pick! Keep up the great work ladies
Much love from a southern gal, Heather
Having a closet full of Matilda Jane means that my sweet tween doesn’t have to grow up so fast after all and there’s no need to fight over what to wear…it’s all so ridiculously cute!
My Rylee Jane is a size 12 and we love all of the displays…a cute new bag and some accessories would tickle us pink.
Y’all are the most fun!
Matilda Jane means memories to me. My girls have worn MJ for their first day of school, for school pics, mother’s day brunch, father’s day outing, etc. I love how they look in it and my girls love to twirl in their dresses/skirts! Every piece we own has a special memory attached and many years from now, when they are all grown and I will have no say in how they dress, I can look back and remember all of those events in their MJ when they still fell asleep on my lap and held my hand. I know that clothes don’t make the memories, but MJ makes those moments more memorable!
Matilda Jane means friendship to me. It’s when I can call one of my best friends on the phone and say have you seen Platinum today?! Or we can throw trunk show together and spend hours deciding what our girls would look the best in. Yep, Matilda Jane has given me not only darling clothes, but also a friend for a lifetime.
To me Matilda Jane is the flower in the garden of weeds. It is the brightness on a stormy day. It is the Love in the world of hate. It is the smile on a sad day. It is Matilda jane. ( sweetshop )
Matilda Jane means to me…a day filled with joy for my daughter! From the minute she puts on an MJC outfit in the morning, until she crawls into her jammies at night she is a twirling, bouncing, jumping smiling bundle of joy. (Explore)
Matilda Jane means doing lots of little things that add up to Big things in people’s lives. It means looking at the girl within and seeing each girl as unique and special. It means cotton candy, giggles, silly faces, and fun. I would love the Explore display
when I first saw Skye Johansens girls I thought what in the world is this cuteness they are wearing…come to find out it was MJC!!!! I love the unpredicible way these clothes and company roll, especially the way they make my girls look and feel. (Summertime)
opps, forgot to mention I would love sweetshop or summertime-both are our sizes. thank you
Matilda Jane is being able to let your little girl look like a little girl! Matilda Jane is about seeing that huge smile come across my daughters face as I show her a new piece of MJ! Matilda Jane is about watching her as she prances through the house so proud to look so adorable in the outfit she has chosen. Matilda Jane is about being carefree and full of wonder and Matilda Jane is about buying from someone who does so much good for others, supporting the endeavors of one who gives back, it makes us proud:-)
MJC means that my girls will look like young girls that are having fun and enjoying their childhood. It means that I can dress them with ease and know they will make an impression. It means that I can still dress young and flirty even though I’m not so young anymore. For all of that and more, I’m thankful.
Summertime please
Summ
It means being able to dress my funny, creative, beautiful daughter so her outside matches what she is on the inside
Explore would work best! Thank you so much!!
I am so sorry, I forgot, Summertime or Sweetshop!
Matilda Jane to me means capturing those all too few moments of being a little girl (the sweetness, innocence and plain joy of being little). M.J. clothes are the sugar and spice and everything nice that little girls are supposed to be. My little girl won’t be little forever so I cherish the days she loves being little and wearing M.J. Thank you providing me with clothes that make the moments with my daughter even sweeter. Interested in Sweetshop or Explorer.
Just thinking of what MJC means to me makes me cry with happiness. It’s my passion, joy, & obsession. I love to look at it (both on my DD and in her closet), collect it, smell it and even wash it. In short , I’m nuts over MJC and I know it shows but I love every moment of it. Each piece reminds my of wonderful times that I’ve had or are looking forward to having with my precious daughter Brooke. I’d love to add The Explorer to our collection. Thanks!
Unique and fun- I love how you mix fabrics to make a look that is your own and encouraging making it your own is what I love! Who also doesn’t love a sweet display of adorable girl clothes with fun accessories! My girl love to be cute but funky and this is the style she loves most.
Thanks for all you do! Explore please pick me!
Matilda Jane is a magical clothing that helps my daughter dance and sing during her favorite music class she takes called Wiggles and Tunes. My daughter is very shy at the age of two and she sparkles and shines when she gets to wear it. She calls her Brittney dress her pretty bunny dress (it was her easter dress) and wants to wear it everyday. It has also got her in to loving accesseries! Thanks for giving her the confidence to dance and feel special.
Matilda Jane means that my shy girl has come out of her shell. She wears her heart on her sleeve but is still brave enough to look “different” at school. Wearing MJC brought her all sorts of compliments this year. She has truly changed into a more confident little girl because of her wardrobe. Thank you. PS. The “Explore” would work best for us.
Sorry, I got caught up in the moment…Sweetshop!
Matilda Jane is the little fair you stumble on in some quiet town on your way to another destination. You can’t resist stopping and playing the games, riding the old-timey rides and eating the delectable tasties that you never planned to do. You can’t remember what caused you to stop and visit, but you are so very glad you did and make it an annual stop forever after. We love each piece that comes out and love to see how it looks on our daughter and love to see how much she enjoys each piece! Sweetshop in a size 2!!
I have three girls and MJC is a way to shower them with fun, love, and unique beauty just by getting dressed! It makes them feel girly and special and I love that.
Sweetshop!
A truly condensed version as I am on my phone texting this. Mjc = beautiful fabric, twirling, good friends, laughter and love! Would love the explore with the size 8. No pic needed to sell me on it. everything you make is gorgeous!
MJC means finally being able to shop somewhere where I know my clothing is designed by people who love clothes and love my kids. Why else would you make clothing that represents the fun of childhood while at the same time always being totally “kid” appropriate. I never worry that my daughter’s might pick something that is too mature for them. And I wish I could work with you guys, since you all seems to love your jobs and each other, fabulous!
(Sweetshop would be lovely if I won)
I was new in Indianapolis and I was able to meet so many girls and their daughters through Matilda jane…it was so nice having our love for mj in common right away! Mj always makes me daughter smile..she loves to dress up, mix n match and twirl in her fave mj pieces! Many memories have been made in your darling clothes and I know many more to come!!!
To me, just seeing the beauty, detail, love and commitment you all have to Matilda Jane makes me want to live my life as vibrantly as you all live your’s. Matilda Jane will ALWAYS be a part of that for me….even when my girls grow out of it, I will think of Matilda Jane and smile. Matilda Jane will forever be in those nostalgic thoughts of my sweet babies. These are the moments to remember..and Matilda Jane will be there:)
Forgot….sweet shop or summertime:)
‘Tilda Jane means not having to argue about what to wear with my 5 year old! Caroline is getting quite opinionated about what she wears and knows what she likes…Tilda Jane. This is how she refers to MJ and always has (too cute to correct). Unique, soft and fabulous! Perfect.
of course, forgot to put…Explore would work best.
Beautiful, crazy moms, Attention crabber, exploring
caring. Sheer LOVE!
MJ means getting a new package nearly everyday with something new for my little girl Presley! MJ means no matter how high the credit card balance goes up its all worth it when I see my little girl spoiled in MJC! MJ means a happy wife and daughter, and maybe a little extra overtime for me the dad! (summertime)
Matilda Jane means that my little gal gets the chance to express her fabulously unique individuality for all the world to see. It’s like wearing her personality – literally – on her sleeve. The ONLY clothing in the world that comes close to being as beautiful as she is. Sweetshop would be out pick.
Matilda jane is an evening at Meme”s house {grandma] exploring the chicken coop to see who can find the most eggs. Of course we must wipe the goo from the pen off on our aprons… Matilda jane is an evening on the hamock with our sister, laughing and sucking “Otter Pops.”…. Matilda Jane is all about my girls searching for rollie pollies in the dirt, under rocks, looking so beautiful and yet so boyish!…. Matilda jane is an amazing dress my daughter wears at her birthday party as she blows out the candles… Lastly, Matilda jane is the small town Fourth Of July parade and my little girls standing up front waving their flags and looking so sweet in their priceless ruffles.
The explore display would work wonders!
We were lucky enough to spend two days at Disney World with our three little princesses. The first day, they each wore a Matilda Jane skirt. The next day, a sundress that was not Matilda Jane. The first day, we were stopped all day long with comments about their cuteness and questions about their clothes. The 2nd, not once! Wearing Matilda Jane gives one confidence, makes you stand out and helps you feel beautiful and special. As a bonus, all of the spills, dirt and grime from the Magical Kingdom came right out when we got home–we were left with great memories and super cute skirts!
To me Matilda Jane is about celebrating being a girl. I love all the ruffles, ties and girlie feminine details. At the same time the colors and patterns are fun and whimsical. Mix and match, layer it, make it funky or sweet, unique…whatever she wants to be that day. The best part of being a girl is you can can have choices and change up your look! I’d love a chance at the Summertime display
oh, and the explore would be perfect for me!
I fell in love with Matilda Jane when my daugther wore her first MJ dress 3 yrs ago, the Homegrown Ginger Knot dress. Matilda Jane is the epitomy of girly girl to me and what I would have loved to wear when I was a little girl. I love the uniqueness and how it brings a smile to my daughter face. Thanks so much, we would probably need the Sweetshop as she’s a size 6.
Matilda Jane means generosity, spontaneity, uniqueness, beauty and fun! These are attributes I hope to instill in my daughter as she grows and continues to wear your beautiful clothes. Thank you for that and the wonderful clothes and illicit compliments wherever we go – my daughters smile is priceless when she is in your clothes. I would love either the Sweetshop or Summertime! I can’t believe no one bid on these beautiful displays.
MJC means confidence – happiness – excitement and beauty will enter our house every time we put it on! My five year old loves to twirl, spin and shine in your clothing – enjoys the attention she gets and I love the confidence it gives me when I wear it also. Interested in the explore display -would love to explore in it
Matilda Jane is clothing that makes my daughter light up. She puts the clothes on and twirls around happy as can be and says “I’m beautiful.” There is never a clothing arguement when she is wearing MJ. Thank you for making my already beutiful daughter more beautiful!! Summertime is our pick.
Instantly I think of Matilda Jane clothes as vivid displays of the World, free of worry and only happiness like children see.
MJC clothes show me snapshots of happy, innocent, inner beauty that no other brand has ever shown me.
I have been a long time lover of Matilda Jane clothes, I bought my first knot dress and I was in love.
The color designs MJC makes threw their clothing resembles work of art, like designing a picture on a canvas.
I love how the canvas is always changing, like our children who wear the clothes!
To me that is what Matilda Jane is!
THANK YOU!
Sincerely,
Angel and our girls Ella and Anna
If we shall be so lucky to win, Sweetshop would fit our girls perfectly.
Matilda Jane means my daughter smiling when she sees it laying out for school in the morning. Matilda Jane means me smiling when my daughter comes up with her own combinations of clothing. Matilda Jane means my daughter asking me “Why do they ask where we got my clothes, it says Matilda Jane right here on the label?”…love it!! Matilda Jane means Grace Evelyn’s style can be as unique as her name. Finally, Matilda Jane means my money is going to a company with heart and soul and I love that the most!! We would be interested in winning the Explore collection. Thanks for all you do for us and others!!
Matilda Jane is like the perfect gift wrapped up in gorgeous paper with a big sparkly bow on top. Not only is it beautiful on the outside, but inside this gift you will find LOVE, FRIENDSHIP, GENEROSITY, CREATIVITY, CONFIDENCE, DEDICATION, and so much more! My favorite thing that MJC has brought into my life….SMILES! What better gift could you recieve?
*Any of the displays would work for our family
I would say explore:)
Today was my child’s swim practice after her last swim meet, which when I was leaving I forgot to go to the ribbon box to collect the ribbons from her last meet. In the box were her 4th place ribbon and and her 6th place ribbon she was so proud. She pointed out right away how well the match her dress I put on her for dinner. She was wearing the skipper, she says it is her new favorite now to match the first ribbons she has ever won for swimming.
Matilda Jane is something very special in our house. My daughter Abby and I are the only girls in a house full of boys so it is something we enjoy together! We both get equally excited looking at all the beautiful pictures and even more when it arrives!! We both love the unique style, comfort, and endless compliments!! (Explore)
I’m all over the Summertime…. but I’ll take whatever.
What Matilda Jane means to me …. completely unique. It’s a fashion statement I get to make with myself and my daughter in a place where no one else had heard of it – though word is spreading fast. It’s constantly getting stopped with comments and questions as to WHERE ON EARTH I got these adorable and comfy looking clothes. It’s also the excitement of playing with pieces to make outfits I wouldn’t have dreamed of when I purchased the pieces…. along with the stress of picking one outfit from the multitude of pieces that I want to showcase in our family photo shoot each year.
M-made with lots of love, A-authentic, T-too cute!!, I-Icing on the cake to make my little girl look her best, L-Lovely little garments that all match up so perfectly with one another, D- Dirty little secrets I keep from my husband about how much I spend lol, A- amazingly unique and perfect, J- Joyful little princesses twirling around, A- all about the attitude, N- Nothing else comes close, E- Everyone at the company should be proud of what they are accomplishing and acheiving and keep up the amazing work!! Love the Summertime. =)
Matilda Jane is just about the most caring & wonderful clothing company in existance. My sweet daughter is nothing but complete innocence- when i see her wearing knot dresses and ruffles it makes my heart melt but yet flutter at the same time. Your clothes aren’t just “pretty clothes” they are one of a kind amazing out of this world clothes. We always receive compliement when we go out in MJ- i am proud to say that we represent your company well & are a walkng advertisement. Thank you for what you do and for being in our life. The summertime display would best suit us. Macie is a size 2.
MJ is a way for my sassy little girl OJ, to express her unique, spunky and edgy but still a bit of inner girly girl to shine and give a hint of her multi-faceted personality with a 1st glance. MJ also allows this SAHM to also “dress up” in a comfy way that makes me not miss the workforce clothing. MJ is a “secret obsession” that I love to share without having to outwardly scream it with logos but subtly give the hint of an “oh wow” when worn. Would love the Sweetshop in size 2 – well any of the 3 lines really in a size 2.
Thanks a bunch MJ!!
Well, it might sound strange, but Matilda Jane clothing has brought my husband and I a little closer together. We just had our daughter, Emma, 9 months ago and he actually stumbled upon Matilda Jane right around the spread the love campaign for Christmas. That was our first order, and now he is as hooked as I am! I realize every time he sends me a picture of Emma in her Matilda Jane while i am at work, what a great father he is! And it doesn’t hurt that he often comments how girly and cute MJC clothes are on Emma and how he cannot wait for the fall line, Yup, you heard it here, my hubby digs MJC
and we would love any of the displays but the summertime would be our #1 choice
MJC means confidence – happiness – excitement and beauty will enter our house every time we put it on! My five year old loves to twirl, spin and shine in your clothing – enjoys the attention she gets and I love the confidence it gives me when I wear it also. Interested in the explore display -would love to explore in it
(Your comment is awaiting moderation) – ( what does awaiting moderation mean??)
For me, Matilda Jane is about being able to dress my daughter in beautiful, well-made clothes of her own. Growing up, my mom didn’t have much money and I largely wore hand-me-downs from my sister. It is about my daughter looking good, and therefore feeling good about herself. Most importantly, it has become less about the clothes and more about the friends I’ve made along the way. Summertime display – thanks
I love so much about Matilda Jane, BUT the thing I love love love is that Matilda Jane gives my twin girls individual style! The ability to mix and match and match without matching is perfect for two little girls that need their own little personalities to show through. Matilda Jane does just that. I love that I can feel the love put forth in everything from the detail of our clothes to the package they come in. Priceless!
My girls are in size 2. These pieces are just precious!
I really love the Summertime display!
To me Matilda Jane is joy, youth, innocence and fun! The joy of twirling, laughing, and dancing. The fun of mixing and matching, wearing something unique every day. The innocence of classic, beautiful clothes for our sweet children that grow up so fast. Love you all!! Sweatshop or summertime, please!!
MJ means girls building each other up, instead of working against each other. Letting my girl know that I support women who make others feel special, and want (really bad) to do good. And a good ‘ol American story, that anyone can do ANYTHING when their heart is in it. Love you, size 2 sweetshop
I love the clothes, but I also love that I fel like I’m shopping at my neighbor’s general store. Like I’m supporting a community member who has a passion for his or her craft, and not just buying something from a corporation that is concerned with mass production and profit. It feels like a place whwere everybody knows your name! (I have girls in sizes 2,4, and 6, so I’d be so happy for any display!)
Matilda Jane means gorgeous and fun! It means my daughter gets to love the clothes she is in and be happy with what she wears. It means my daughter gets to be an individual and have great style. More then all this it means we get to have a wonderful wardrobe by a wonderful company who loves for little girls to love their clothes! Matilda Jane is summer, spring, autumn, and fall, all the wonderful things we see in each season.
The word that comes to mind when I think of MJ is confidence. My oldest has a scar on her face and is very self conscious about it. When she wears her Matilda Jane she says she feels beautiful. Of course I believe that she is a beautiful child inside and out, but I am so happy that the clothing makes her feel good about herself and empowers her.
MJC for our family has meant innocence, confidence, originality, memories, friends and laughter…Both my 17 month old and 8 year old have found such great experiences in MJ…thank you ladies for all you do!!! Love the Summertime
my daughter loves the sweetshop I love Matilda Jane because if my daughter has it to wear she feels like a princess and will actually stay dressed all day I also love it because it fits her spunky beautiful personality and makes her feel pretty you can’t look at my daughter and not smile she is magical like matilda jane
I forgot to mention that I am interested in the Explore display.
Matilda Jane has allowed me more options to dressing my daughter as a 6 year old. I discovered Matilda Jane when I was searching for more age friendly and unique clothing for my daughter. I love that it is original and she feels pretty & cool while still looking like her age. Green is her favorite color so Explore(size
To put it simply, MATILDA JANE clothing represents the fun of being a girl! Ruffly, pretty, girly goodness! I would love the Summertime or SweetShop if I win.
Thanks,
Jennifer S.
I think MJ is just the perfect and timeless. My daughter is usually the earliest riser in our house and she always gets herself dressed in her own MJ creation. I love to see what she pairs together and she usually has an explanation of how she matched her top and bottoms. We love the summertime display.
I’ll be honest, Matilda Jane is all for me! My little one, Madeline, doesn’t go to her closet and pick out her clothes, I do! Matilda Jane represents all that is good in our little girls. It is the outside representation of how sweet and innocent they are. Sweetness and innocence are hard to come by in this world, so it’s nice to know I can purchase a little bit of it.
And we would LOVE summertime please!
After having 3 boys and longing for a girl, I have watched Matilda Jane since the beginning when we lived in Ohio and my friends would go to Ft. Wayne to shop. Now that I have my sweet girl, I realize how little my mom taught me about femininity. For me, the clothing Matilda Jane sells is a way for me to teach my daughter about being feminine and having confidence in being a girl. I love that she can still be spunky and feel pretty, I never remember feeling especially girly and pretty, so it is SO fun to watch her twirl in a molly or prance around in ruffles! I would love the chance to own the Summertime (1st choice) or Sweetshop (2nd choice) display – thanks so much for the chance!
So many people don’t get it. Matilda Jane does not make “just clothes” – they make little pieces of art. Art that makes my daughter feel beautiful and special and different. Art that timelessly captures the essence of being a little girl. Art that fuels my own creativity and inspires me as a mother to appreciate every twirl along this short but precious journey called childhood.
We would love to have even a small part of any of your displays, but Sweetness is our favorite!
Matilda Jane for us is pure girliness! In a world where self confidence is not always easy to come by, my daughter knows for certain that she looks and feels beautiful in what she is wearing. She may cry when someone hurts her feelings or not always be sure of the right words to say but MJC gives her something soft to land…in. I’ve never seen her more excited about what she puts on and it’s not about the brand name, it’s about sheer beauty, comfort, and girliness only MJC can express.(Explore)
I just asked my DH and he said, “A big category in Quicken?” He jokes but he loves seeing his princess in all of her MJ glory – it is far and away his favorite clothing she wears! He even made sure I packed some of his MJ faves for our 4th of July trip to his parents’ house – he picked them out actually. The style suits our sassy & spirited 20 month old to a T. She is sweet & girly but spunky and rough & tumble at the same time – and when she wears her MJ it never holds her back from exploring every nook and cranny of her little world! Would love the Summertime items. Thanks!
Matilda Jane will always represent the most epic era of my life- being a mommy!! Our kids only stay small for so long (darn it!) and Matilda Jane has been such a huge part of our most important childhood events and milestones! For years to come as we look back at the photos of first days of school, birthdays, recitals, vacations, and everyday life- Matilda Jane will always be there reminding us of those sweet days of childhood!! We’ll always remember our favorites just like old friends because for this MJ obsessed family, Matilda Jane is more than just clothes
We would love Sweet Shop or Explore.
Matilda Jane to me means girly glam, unexpected fun and good old fashioned days!! It is pure love!!! Thanks for all the cuteness. Sweetshop would work best for us.
Matilda Jane to me means being able to buy adorable clothes for my daughters (and friends’ daughters!) that are girly, unique, and comfortable. These are important things because the clothes make them feel special. And in this crazy cut-throat world, every little girl deserves to feel special! I like the Summertime one because we can share with the neighbors!
Matilda Jane means happiness to my little girl. As soon as she opens a box of new clothes received in the mail, or opens her closet to pick out a newly washed dress, her eyes light up and I can see the excitement in her face. I love how it makes her feel each and every time she puts it on. Explore
Matilda Jane means sweet childhood innocence, mixed with a little bit of spunk. Matilda Jane makes my daughter feel special, she lights up a room when she is wearing Matilda Jane. I love when my daughter says she want to wear her ‘Tilda Jane.
I would like Explore.
Oh what a fun contest!! That’s what MJC means to me – FUN, innovative, unpredictable and unique! I never know what to expect, but I KNOW that when my sweet girl leaves the house in her Matilda Jane that perfect strangers will stop us on the street to rave about how darling she is! Now, she is a darling girl, but she doesn’t get the same response in other clothes!! I just love to see my daughter dance, twirl and smile and somehow she does all of those things every time she wears your clothing!
Thanks so much!! We would LOVE to be considered for either the Sweetshop or summertime displays!! THANK YOU MJC!
Matilda Jane means my little princess gets to dress like a little princess and feel good about it. MJ captures her youth, her sparkle, her sass, and her uniqueness. Your precious creations means MY precious creation can treasure her girliness and STILL head off to her taekwondo class with all the boys. Best of all, I can take advantage of her wanting to match with mommy…while it lasts;)
Oh…almost forgot – we’d be pleased with anything, but “sweetshop” and “summertime” would fit her best:)
Matilda Jane means quality clothing that is unique as my little girl!! As she is uncommonly beautiful, I want her clothes to be, too. Plus, Like your company says: “Who doesn’t love a compliment.”
I would love to win Summertime!!
Matilda Jane means quality clothing appropriate to a creative little girl. I love that I can match with my daughter without being too “matchy.” It is a beautiful expression of the complex combination a tomboy and princess that lives in each little girl. She can mix and match(or not) to create her own one of a kind individual style. I would love to have Explore.
Matilda jane means childhood to me…pure and simple, unique and beautiful, happy, unpredictable, and a wee bit cheeky. It is as if with each outfit, my children’s innocence and spunk, delight at life, and pure joy is captured and brought out in vivid color with each smile and twirl as they are worn. To me, each Matilda Jane outfit is a perfect snapshot of my children’s youth.
Matilda Jane means that I can dress my girls in unique, cute, fun clothes that stand out. MJ is a company that I can trust in their quality of clothes and believe in what they stand for and how they give back by helping the community. All smiles for MJC!

Matilda Jane brings back memories of my childhood when everything was so carefree and relaxed. My mom saved a box of my clothing from when I was a little girl almost 40 years ago, most of which had been lovingly stitched together by her. When I open a box of Matilda Jane, it brings back those same wonderful memories that I got when i first opened that box from my childhood. The styles may have changed, but the fact that each piece is designed and made with love hasn’t. I can’t wait for the day years from now when my own daughter will open up her box full of the beautiful dresses, ruffles, and gorgeous tops and think of the wonderful memories that were made in them. We would love Sweet Shop or Explore!
I was SO surprised and excited to have a baby girl. I am so in love with all things pretty, floral and girly. Every time I put Jocelyn in an MJC piece I feel like she is girly-ness personified, but still shows the strength and uniqueness of the strong woman I want her to grow to be. Of course my heart explodes when I see how CUTE she is in it all!
I’m so sorry your auctions weren’t bid on! The displays were amazing!
I would love anything from the display. My daughter is 12 months, so she would grow into things. Not picky here, it’s all gorgeous.

To me Matilda Jane means camaraderie. It brings a sisterhood of fun loving unique fashionistas together. We may live in different parts of the country and lead different lives but many of us have shown that strong friendships can be built around a love of Matilda Jane.
That I can laugh when my 5 year old daughter announces when complimented on her “purse”, “Thank You, it is a cross body and it’s Matilda Jane”. It means that her Grandpa who is 87 can comment on how cute her “bloomers”(shorties) are. It means that I get to remember the sweet outfits that my Grandma used to make for me every time I look at my daughter.
Matilda Jane means happiness, love, & laughter to me! It’s the creativity, uniqueness, & faith! It brings everyone smiles & lots of memories of childhood days! We love Matilda Jane….it brings a smile to me & to my daughter! (Summertime)
My granddaughter wears a size 2- so any display would be wonderful!
We LOVE Matilda Jane because we know that each piece of clothing is created with 110% love. It means innocence…and creativity…and uniqueness…and oh-my-heavens gorgeousness! MJC makes my little girl look and feel as special as she is. You make us smile MJC! Thank you! (Summertime)
That I can laugh when my 5 year old daughter announces when complimented on her “purse”, “Thank You, it is a cross body and it’s Matilda Jane”. It means that her Grandpa who is 87 can comment on how cute her “bloomers”(shorties) are. It means that I get to remember the sweet outfits that my Grandma used to make for me every time I look at my daughter. (sweetshop or explore size 4 or 6 would fit best, but she does have a 2 and a 4 year old cousin)
Matilda Jane to me is a chance to explore my inner childhood by remembering when I was a little girl…watching my grandmother sew dresses for me and my cousin. Stop and smile. Dream and Laugh. A chance just remember when.
Hope my daughters get a chance to “explore” the Matilda Jane art fair display.
Summertime (the display I am hoping for) and MJ, carefree, easy, sweet. They go hand in hand. Like bare feet on freshly cut grass (is there a better smell in the world?), waves washing away sand castles and holes dug in the sand, a popsicle dripping down an arm, and mom not caring a bit (that is what stain stick is for!), laying in the grass watching a fireworks display, the colors vibrant and alive, just like the clothes!
Happy 4th of July!
Matilda Jane is fresh and independent spirited…like I want my daughter to be (well, not fresh as in sassy, fresh as in new…a breath of fresh air!). When I dress my daughter or myself in Matilda Jane it is just the ultimate combination: comfort, versatility (can be dressy or casual), flattering feminine fits, joyful fabrics, unique and as your slogan says “unpredictable”. I come back to my previous word: the ultimate! (summertime or sweetshop for my size 2 sweetie)
I have been sitting here thinking of a poetic verse that would “win.” However, I am not a poet. Simply put, Matilda Jane makes me feel nostalgic. It is girly, sweet, feminine, innocent and fun. My childhood, relived through my two beautiful girls each and every time they put it on. Explore is the collection we would be thrilled with the most. Thank you!
“My sweet girl’s pure innocence.”. Sweetshop please!
One reason why Matilda Jane clothing is perfect for my daughter….she stays home with her dad each day, so she often sticks out at the playground and other groups as 99% of the other kids are with their mom. When she’s wearing your clothing she always get compliments, and it’s a perfect ice breaker to help my husband fit in a just a little. Thank you.
I would love the Sweetshop package for my daughter.
Matilda Jane means that I will never get my credit card paid off, hah it’s worth it. It allows me to dress my free spirit of kid in clothes that match her unpredictable and awesome personality. Honestly it just makes me smile all the mismatch craziness, love it. If I’m lucky I would like the Explore display.
I see pure innocence like how our children should be. Nothing too grown up, something whimsical, and definitely special. Now that is for the girl. For the mommy, it is nothing too plain, something pricey, and definitely an obsession.
Matilda Jane means connections. It means strengthening the connection I have to my beautiful, funny, smart little girl…my little girl who I watch shine each time she slips on her Raven and immediately start twirling. It means strengthening the connection to some amazing friends I have made based on our shared love of the beautiful clothing you create. Matilda Jane means a little more joy in the lives of so many. EXPLORE would be awesome!
Matilda Jane embodies spirit. The spirit of my adorable daughters. Unique, outgoing, beautiful, and sassy. Always pretty and sometimes a little bit off-the-wall (in a good way
). We would give the Summertime display a great home in not-always-sunny upstate NY! Thank you for the chance!
Matilda Jane brings back the nostalgia of my childhood and my favorite calico-clothed Holly Hobby doll that my mom made me when I was five. I later tried to sew similar clothes for my dolls that were refreshingly girly, not the acid-washed stuff of the 80′s I grew up in – a mix of little house on the prairie floral prints and my own hip, 8 yr old vibe. While my doll clothes left a lot to be desired, Matilda Jane arrived just in time for the adult me to dress my little girls in and it’s the embodiment of everything I desired for my dollies when I was a little girl: feminine, classic (dare I say, at times, old-fashioned?), but always a little quirky! Just like my girls.
~~~Matilda Jane means frills and spice. It means pretty and fun. It means GIRL.~~~ …summertime (or explore). tya…
Forgot to say Explore or Sweet Shop would work best for my girls.
I love Matilda Jane and getting caught up in the excitement of these clothes and your company. I buy when I can (wish I could buy more) but love to follow your blog and facebook page to see your fantastic ideas. You are truely creative, thanks for the inspiration. (PS: Would love the explore display!)
matilda jane means to me….a wonderful way for my husband, who is a stay at home dad, to fit in just a little with all the stay at home moms. 99% of the time he’s the only dad at the playground and activities with my daughter, and when she’s wearing Matilda Jane she ALWAYS gets attention. It’s a great ice breaker and hands down the most unique clothing I’ve ever seen!
Sweetshop for my daughter!
MJC means beautiful sweet babies. Uniqueness that is beyond imagination. We are so happy to put on the fun colors and see who can make the coolest new outfits. MJC is quality and dedication to a meaningful, purposeful life with expression and flair! MJC is LIFE

FAITH,LOVE,JOY,LAUGHTER,AND INSPIRATION IS WHAT MATILDA JANE MEANS TO ME. THE FAITH YOU ALL HAVE IN YOUR IDEAS TO CREATE, THE LOVE YOU HAVE TO GIVE TO ALL, THE JOY IN YOUR CREATIONS, THE LAUGHTER YOU SHARE TOGETHER AND THE INSPIRATION YOU GIVE TO ALL OF US, GOD BLESS, THANK YOU AGAIN TO ALL OF YOU, SUMMERTIME SIZE FOUR,,
Matilda Jane is unique beautiful clothing that my daughter is able to wear on a normal day. She constantly gets comments on them. We love how they can be dressed up or casual–I’m so happy we found MJ
I have been drooling over MJC for a full year. I have 4 girls and simply can not buy an outfit for everyone so I refrain and drool. I <3 the styles, the shapes, the patterns and especially the colors. They are all so very beautiful I want 3 or 4 or everything
I have two size 6 and one size 2 so sweetshop would fit our ranges perfectly… then I just need to purchase for the teen and they would all be in MJC HEAVEN!
Matilda Jane means excitement to me. I can best explain this by example. We received our mail today with a package containing MJC. The excitement on my girl’s faces as they opened the package was priceless! Oh how we love MJC!
OH and I’d love the sweetness display
Ever since I saw a picture of a little girl on somebody’s blog wearing one of your adorable knot dresses, I knew I was hooked. I was thrilled to find a clothing company that shares my vision of what my little girl deserves to wear. The designs are timeless and comfortable; the fabrics are like precious jewels- vibrant, glowing, magical. MJ clothes really hold their value, lending themselves to being handed down and handed off to future little girls, in our family and in others. I also love that there is such a great community of fans around these clothes, and am glad that I can be a part of the Matilda Jane ‘club’!
Forgot to add that Sweetness or Summertime will make us happy:)
Matilda Jane clothing is charming, merry and kaleidoscopic! My bright, sassy sweet pea, Sophie, sparks all the more in her Matilda Jane pieces. As an ardent admirer of the artistic, I appreciate the unique pairings of color and pattern – that I could never achieve on my own. Thank you for the opportunity to enhance our closet palette. Please consider us for Sweetness.
P.S. – first pick is Sweet Shop, followed by Summertime, then Explore! Thanks, MJC!
MJ means many things! Seeing my daugters excitement when she sees the MJ boxes come in the mail. Hearing her giggle as she falls to the floor because she refuses to stop twirling. And finally, the confidence she exudes as she wears her MJ outo on the town! Sweetshop
What does Matilda Jane mean to me?…
Meticulous
Artistry that makes you want to
Twirl until you burst
Into uncontrollable
Laughter, and
Dance yourself silly.
All while creating
Joy
And
Natural
Exploration of one’s true self
I would love the Explore display:)
Matilda Jane means to me…feeling like I am actually a part of something good. When I say good…I don’t just mean the beautiful clothes (that is obvious). There is TRUE goodness oozing from this company. When a company can willingy spring people into action and make them want to do good things for strangers…that is special. <3 (Summertime or Sweetness)
Matilda Jane is about letting little children be little. When I hear Matilda Jane, I think of little girls running through fields playing, laughing and creating long lasting memories and making new friends along the way. When I see little girls wearing Matilda Jane, a smile comes across my face because I think cheeky; fun, quirky, and most definitely stylish. If I’m chosen, I would love the Sweetshop size.
MJ makes my daughter feel like a little girl. And not just a little girl, but a beautiful, spunky, mischievous, spoiled rotten little girl. She knows that she is the center of attention when she wears her MJ and I love the confidence it gives her. She loves her “Tilda Jane!
MJ makes my daughter feel like a little girl. And not just a little girl, but a beautiful, spunky, mischievous, spoiled rotten little girl. She knows that she is the center of attention when she wears her MJ and I love the confidence it gives her. The Explore display would fit my Anna to a “T”!
Ooops, Sweetshop please
Matilda Jane Clothing depicts the excitement of discovering something brand new.
Matilda Jane Clothing gives opportunity for another playful adventure today – rain or shine.
Matilda Jane Clothing captures the realization that being sassy is just fine!
Matilda Jane Clothing embodies the fun of making up a new dance on the living room floor.
Matilda Jane Clothing demonstrates that tomorrow will be better than the one before.
~Explore would describe what my three girls do every day! I would love to have that set if chosen. Thank you for making such a fun blog contest!
To me Matilda Jane is a lifestyle, not just clothing. It’s that look on my daughter’s face when she looks at herself in the mirror twirling around in her knot dress and says “I’m a princess mommy”. It’s the friendships i have made through my love of the clothing. The friends I have met through boards and at the art fair – friendships I truly treasure. Matilda Jane is much more than clothing to me and I am so lucky that it has become a part of my life.
I would Love Sweetshop or Summertime – thank you!
Matilda Jane means to me…Goodness. Memories. Happiness. Creativity. Caring!
Forgot to say the display-Summertime or Sweetshop.
Matilda Jane means love to me. Matilda Jane exudes greatness from their perfect clothes to their excellent trunk keepers.You can tell in whatever they do love is the force driving them, whether it is the adorable ruffle pants they have designed, or the unbelievable acts of kindness & generosity they do throughout the year. Thanks for the love you give Matilda Jane…Explore:)
For me Matilda Jane is love! It is also unique, CHEEKY, sweet, cute, practical, and comfy. It is also a pioneer, generous, thoughtful, FREEHEARTED, profound, and friendly. MJC Clothing are always “go-to’s” in my son’s AND daughter’s closets. A little MJC makes the day and goes a long way!
joy, sweetness, a bit of cheekiness -
innocence and twirly whirly little girliness
color and textures surprise and delight
tomorrow we’ll play again in mj, so for now goodnight.
whatever the display is that says Happy Birthday (sweetshop?) Today is my real life birthday, so I had to pick that one.
Also Happy belated Birthday Denise!
MJC is an exercise of confidence building. My Adora started out not really thrilled about MJC, she’d rather had been like everyone else. At only 4 I thought that was sad. But a few days ago (i’m sure after about 1000 compliments), now 5, Ms Adora told me, “like these clothes now. I memeber when I didn’t. They’re pretty and different.” (explore or sweetshop. i have a new MJC recruit who has a 18m old. i’d love to share)
Matilda Jane means happiness AND comfort to me. My daughter was diagnosed with luekemia recently and has been pretty sick and tired. When she wears a MJ dress, she says she is a princess. That makes me happy and I really feel like the clothing comforts her in some way. I would pick summertime
oh yeah, MJC is also CONTAGIOUS-it has some kind of gravitational pulll for sure!!!Sweetshop or Explore work for us!
-thanks!! (fingers crossed)
Matilda Jane means to me unique adorable clothes! I love being able to dress in her in MJ and know that someone else wont be wearing it and that she is guaranteed tons of compliments. I love that my “not so little girl anymore” can still have these adorable “girly” clothes to wear. MJ means the excitement and anticipation of the newest lines,I look forward to all the unique designs you gals come up with! (Explore)
Matilda Jane hooked me, not first because of the cute clothes but, by the constant giving you do to those around you. Paying attention to only what you wear all the time can make a girl selfish. Being willing to give the joy of wearing something beautiful to someone else is a life lesson that I want my little girl to learn from a very early age–Give and it shall be given unto you. Thank you for bringing this into focus for me. {Display—Summertime, but really any would work b/c my dd wears a 2}.
MJ means comfort and compliments! I love being able to dress the clothes up or down depending on the occasion and EVERY time my daughter and I wear it we get lots of compliments! That makes a girl feel really good! Who doesn’t love a compliment?! Anything in a size 2- thanks.
Matilda Jane is an artistic inspiration to me. Every time I pick up a new, cute little piece, I can’t wait to get it on one of my girls for a photo session. I can just look at it and it inspires a little portrait scene in my head.
MJC means something a little bit different from all the rest. It is having another mom tell me that they would love to wear Emme’s outfits themselves. It is smiling as seeing your daughter swager a bit as she twirls, skips, and flounces her way accross the room in a molly skirt. It is having your husband fuss about the cost of dressing her & then having him melt when he realizes that she looks like a young girl & her friends, well – just don’t.
I would love explore.
Hello! The reason I like Matilda Jane is because it reminds me of the days I would play dress up with my sisters. Where we could feel pretty and show our personalities. I like it because little girl look like little girls in the clothes and not miniature adults. I captures their innocents and lets them showcase who they are.Just like my little girl running around in her favorite polka-dots.
We would love any of the displays, my daughter is in 2′s & 4′s. We have got a cousin that is in bigger sizes. So we would be greatful for anything. Thanks!
To me, Matilda Jane clothing means never having to fight my girls to get dressed – the pieces are so comfy! The mix of colors and patterns inspire my girls to put together ensembles that reflect their moods and personality. Being a parent means constantly rolling with unpredictable ups & downs and teaching your kids how to do the same; Matilda Jane keeps it fun!
oh yeah – explore!!
Matilda jane means happiness and feeling beautiful for my daughter. She loves to put on your “pretty dresses” and twirl around like a ballerina! Simple, but its true! (Summertime)
Matilda Jane means to me that my daughter gets to wear fun, comfy, unique clothes. My favorite are the outfits she puts together herself! (She could wear either of the displays with the bigger sizes)
WOW… Matilda Jane… My little girls (ages 1 & 7) look beautiful to me any day of the week, but when they wear their MJC items… they glow! So many times I see girls these days dressing “older” than they are… but MJC let’s my little girls be just that… Classy-Little-Girls. In fact, we drove home from the beach today and were shopping on the way… I heard a mom say.. oh look, She has on Matilda Jane, how sweet!. I like all of the pics I see, but probably like the explore or sweet shop the best
Matilda Jane has come to mean a lot to our family! It started as a fun and bold way to dress my daughter. It is now a statement about her take on life! She is fun, energetic, sweet, bold, caring, and a tad bit sassy–and MJC allows to express all of those things! And as a bonus, our trunk keeper is a dear friend–what a blessing all around!
I think the Explore items would fit best. Thanks for the opportunity!!
I discovered Matilda Jane almost three years ago and it was the first designs that I felt really got what I wanted my baby girl to look like and to feel like. Now that my baby girl is 3.5 years old and speaks her mind freely and LOUDLY, she never refuses to wear any Matilda Jane piece. Yes, I love the compliments, but I love most uniqueness of the designs that can only be topped by the uniqueness of the girl wearing them.
Thank you for your creativity and generousity!
The Summertime or Sweet Shop would work best for Delaney.
Well I am fairly new to Matilda Jane, but it has taken over my daughters wardrobe in just a few short months! I have really enjoyed meeting new friends and especially my TK she is super sweet, friendly, and really cares about her customers which makes is that much more fun. Of course I also love the it on my daughter. She looks so darn cute & stylish and at the same time looks her age which I just love because they grow up so fast. To me Matilda Jane means friendship, smiles, style, and laughter! Summertime or Sweetshop
For me MJ represents opportunity! It is the opportunity to make a little girl’s day with tons of compliments. It is the opportunity to achieve dreams you never realized you had. Finally, it is the opportunity to realize that doing for others is the greatest gift you can give and receive! Thanks for a great first season MJC!!!
My first choice is Summertime. Second choice is sweetshop.
Matilda Jane represents the innocense and carefree attitude of childhood. The colors and beauty of the fabrics mixed together create a unique pallette. I am in awe seeing my girls surrounded by that beauty and embracing it reminds me of the first time I saw Willy Wonky and the Chocolate Factory….world of imagination….just amazing. We LOVE Matilda Jane!
Very intersted in Sweetshop
Matilda Jane Clothing is the one thing my lil’ sassy mama will say yes to (and her fav words right now are NO MA’AM!)! She sleeps in it, plays in it, goes to preschool in it, sasses me in it, lives in it! Matilda Jane allows my daughter (and me:)) to show her true spirit, happiness, confidence, and spunk. MJC is an extraordinary company that is self-less and giving in nature, traits I hope my daughter will one day exhibit. Finally, MJC means that we always have something great to spend our birthday money (July birthdays for fall release) and christmas money (Spring release) on! Interested in sweet shop or summertime!!!
I would be interested in the mystery EXPLORE! Matilda Jane means CUTE and UNIQUE. But it also means making a mommy feel good every day when we are at the park, mall or library and a stranger comes up and tells me how cute her clothes are. Matilda Jane means a mommy who really enjoys mixing and matching and being different. But most of all Matilda Jane means family! For the last year, I have met some awesome people through premiere parties, trunk shows, etc. and I love to share the cuteness with all!
Matilda Jane is unique, innocent, pure, colorful, delightful, charming, love-filled, full of life, giving, brings smiles to others, sharing, caring and is just about everything we want our little girls to be as they grow into adulthood. That is why we LOVE you Matilda Jane all the way around! Sweetshop or Summertime as I have a 15month old and a 3 year old.
Either would work.
I think you summed it up best…”cuteness is guaranteed.” It doesn’t matter the combination of pieces my 3 year old picks out in the morning…it is cute, comfy, colorful, and everything a children’s line of clothing should be. We would love Summertime.
For my little princess, Matilda Jane means celebrating her individuality through spunky, funky outfits that she puts together herself. Getting ready for school in the morning is like playing dress-up for her, and the confidence she exudes when wearing an outfit she loves makes me melt. Standing out from the crowd in her ruffles, buttons, knots, aprons and lace, she plays hard and looks fabulous doing it. Matilda Jane means not having to compromise. She can have it all.
Yet another one who forgot to pick a display – Sweetshop or Summertime would work for us.
Happiness all around! It makes me happy to buy mjc, my daughter is happy wearing it and I love that she is in original clothing made by artists! It means a lot to buy clothing from a company I feel like gives back more than any I have seen, love that we all feel a part of something bigger when we buy mjc. Love sweetshop, daughter is a 2.
Little Sawyer-blue eyes and pure white hair
A matching outfit was extremely rare
But then she saw a girl in Matilda Jane
Daily dressing was never the same
“Horray”, mom will now take claim (of her)
She’d love to go “Explore”.
Matilda Jane has given me lots of smiles:) The smile on my little girls face when a new pretty arrives. The smile on the faces of our friends and family when they see her and compliment her on her MJC clothes. The smiles of strangers (those who pass by or help us through our day) their faces soften when they see my beautiful girl in and equally exquisite dress. Smiles are a sign of joy, happiness that Matilda Jane has given so many people around us. Sweetshop would be wonderful.
Matilda Jane is my splurge and my surprise. I am a control freak and am constantly looking for the best deal and must know things ahead of time. MJ lets me step away from that and just ENJOY life. It makes me feel carefree…which doesn’t happen often! Thank you!
To me Matilda Jane is inspiration, believing in your dreams and not ever giving up. Miss Denise showed me that it is possible to do anything you set your mind to. I hope I can be like her when I grow up. If I get chosen, I would like the Explore set. The clothes won’t fit me, but I know my sister would love the size 8s <3!
MJC means to me bringing people from all over the place together to share in beautiful clothes, beautiful acts of kindness, and way to let every girl show their personalities in unique ways. I love that my daughter feels pretty in your clothes and that no matter where she goes some comments on what she wears and it brings the biggest and brightest smile to my daughters face. thank you for this as it is pure joy to see her smile so big and bright!
sweet shop or summer time
Matilda Jane means so much to me. I remember as far back as pre school feeling insecure about what I was wearing and how I looked. My parents were busy working hard and often I dressed myself. Matilda Jane has given my 3 year old the confidence most grown women have a hard time finding.
Oops…forgot to say Summertime!
Matilda Jane is my splurge and my surprise. I am a control freak and am constantly looking for the best deal and must know things ahead of time. MJ lets me step away from that and just ENJOY life. It makes me feel carefree…which doesn’t happen often! Summertime!
Matilda Jane is a sweet shop to me! I kant git enuf of it! I like to cordnate with my little sistr and my momy and my frens. I wish art feyr wood git heer soonr! I want to sind you a hug!
MJ means I can let my daugthers be exactly what they want to be. My 5 year old walks around proud and confident when wearing MJ. My 15 month old won’t take off her MJ bonnet (only hat she won’t take off). Both Mom and Dad are beyond thrilled and feel so lucky to bring MJ into our daughters lives. ** Explore
I love it when my girls are out and about in their MJ and people stop us and ask where we got our adorable outfits. But, Matilda Jane is so much more than cute and unique clothing to me. I love what MJ stands for and love how they give back. Instead of throwing a wad of cash at a charity they actually work hard to bring everything they can to the table for the cause.
(Sweetshop or Summertime)
What Matilda Jane means to me … Dressing my daughter in cuteness and her loving the compliments! It’s her own little clothing designer because each piece is so unique. MJ makes us happy! You are our friends though we have never met. (sweetshop or summer)
Matilda Jane means happiness for little girls. (Explore)
Matilda Jane means more to us than just clothes and lots of compliments. We bumped into your company a few months back and fell in love instantly. It’s seeing my one year old smile when I grab a Matilda Jane dress out of the closet and her wearing it with full confidence as she strides across the room in total bliss. Matilda Jane is my inspiration and I love everything little thing about it
Summertime-size 2
Matilda Jane is a big dream to create amazing clothes. I will be loyal to MJC because of what it stands for – loving and giving back. I am so thankful Denise had a dream so big. I will forever be grateful for the smiles on my little girls faces when they wear the clothes and the smile on mine when I see the ways MJC continually gives back. It makes me feel great to tell my little girls that the people who make their oh so cute clothes are spreading the love everyday. Any of the displays (size 2/4)
Matilda JANE…
My Grandma -Joyce JANE♥
My Mom – Belinda JANE♥
My Self- Aubri JANE♥
My Girl – Aftynn JANE♥
Besides the obvious…Matilda Jane is a newfound treasure trove of fun and frivolity for my girls and creative feast for my eyes. I have just recently found all the guaranteed cuteness offered here and am oh so excited!!!
I would l♥ve to explore more with Explore! Thanks for the chance!
MJC means my daughter and I will feel SPECIAL wearing our clothes. It means that people around us will be INSPIRED by our UNIQUE style. It guarantees lots of LOVE and a great story behind the making of each piece. MJC helps to create UNFORGETABLE memories. And because of the lasting QUALITY, I know we’ll get to pass on the FUN to our new baby girl (born 6/6/11) when she gets a little bigger. SWEETSHOP display, thanks!
Matilda Jane means happiness in every ounce of my being! It means seeing the joy in my daughters eyes when somebody tells her she looks cute and then she says mom I love my lady Jane clothes! It means pure beauty in the work of God when I look at my smallest and realize how her clothing show off her God given cuteness, and yes i might be a little bit biased….just a little bit! And means therapy for mom…that is what the friends I have made thru Matilda Jane are to me. And I love summer time. Thanks, aimee
MJC lets a girl be a girl: it is sweet, innocent, and fun. It lets her pick a mood: fancy dress up Cher dress, cute and comfy Shiver tee and Thelma ruffles, sweet and girly Stargazer pearl, fun-loving raven skirt and cookie tank…there is an outfit for every mood. And for mommy…it lets me enjoy her as the sweet, little girl that she is, just a little better. When i see her in a lap dress, an Ellie dress, a knot…it somehow makes me feel like her childhood is a little sweeter, not just for her but for me too. Clothes dont make a girl, but they sure can make her better
I would love to play for sweetshop. Thanks, ladies!
Matilda Jane means sweet and unpredictable (in so many ways) and a little bit cheeky. It means love in every stitch. It means watching my daughter glow and dance like a firefly so happy and carefree. Matilda Jane brings out the confidence in everyone. An inspirational and generous company! (Explore)
Oh Sam, as the mother to four daughters Matilda Jane means so much to me. Matilda Jane Brings so much Happiness to my girls. They feel like total Princesses when they wear it and play in it:) And for them to be happy and feel so special means the world to me. In return it brings me happiness! We love Matilda jane clothes! With my four we can wear 2′s, 4′s, and 6′s:)
Matilda Jane means to me that I get to have a super stylish daughter, with clothes that fit her fun and happy personality. I know when I deck her out in MJ she’s sure to get numerous compliments. (Summertime)
Sam, I kept it to five stanzas, hoping that is the same as five sentences…
It is a LOVE like no other
similiar to that of a daughter and mother
Always compliments from every place
a constant smile on my little girl’s face
Pretty fabrics, ruffles and even some bows
pure generousity that continues to grow
Beauty and creativity in every way
so very comfortable for any day
Innocence and whimsy wrapped up in one
shopping for MJ is really that fun!
I would love sweetshop for my sweetie!
Matilda Jane to me is that feeling – the one you get when eating your favorite food, laughing with your best friend, a great nap in the middle of the day, the ending to an amazing book, watching your daughter read to her little brother when she thinks no one is watching, or secretly paying for the coffee of the person behind you and making their day.
Explore would fit us best.
BEAUTIFUL, PURE, INNOCENT, LOVE, WHIMSCIAL, LAUGHTER, JOY and HAPPINESS. Because these are the feelings that I have for my 2 daughters with my 3rd girl on the way, I love my girls. I know for many of us MOM’s we LOVE our kiddos and want to keep them young forever. We want them to remember all the fun memories of their childhood like we had when we were young. And that is what MJ does for so many little kids it creates memories. MY vote is for Sweetshop
Friendship, giggles, twirls, happiness and smiles just to name a few words that come to mind when I think of Matilda Jane. Each one I can see an instant picture of one of my girls and the beauty Matilda Jane is to them.
My wife asked me…What does MJC mean to me? I immediately thought of a local artist here in Detroit and created a song parody of Eminem’s “Lose Youself”…reflecting my wife and my time at the 435 Art Fair. It’s a little longer than 5 sentences, so I apologize.
Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted in one moment would you capture it or just let it slip?
Her palms are sweaty, knees weak, charge card ready
The women have been lined up for hours, already
She’s nervous, but on the surface she looks calm and ready to buy,
but she keeps on forgettin what she wrote down,
the 435 crowd goes so loud
Doors open wow, but credit card won’t come out
She’s choking how, everybody’s buying now
The clock’s run out, time’s up over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes another rack of tees
Oh no, there goes my wife, she choked
She’s so mad, but she won’t give up that easy,
no she won’t have it , she knows her whole back’s to these ropes
It don’t matter, she’ll cope
She knows that, but she’ll hope
Her wardrobe so stagnant she knows
When she goes home, that’s when it’s back to the MJC web again yo
This whole rhapsody she better go capture this moment and hope it don’t pass her.
You better lose yourself in the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to buy low
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo
Matilda Jane means fun to me, pure and simple. The way the clothes look on my daughter, the mixture of color and styles is pure fun! Every time she wears Matilda Jane, I just have to break out my camera. (which is almost every day, lol) We would love to enter for Summertime please.
Matilda Jane means giggles, bunnies, springtime, ice cream sundeas, innocence and individuality. There is not another line of clothing that makes my daughter look exactly how I feel about her her in my heart. When a my daughter wears Matilda Jane clothes she always seems to tickle my heart and put a smiles on everyones face. We love Matilda Jane.
Matilda Jane means to me…Fun, creative, quirky and versatile. I love that something is a skirt one day and an ellie the next
That that same skirt can be layered with leggings and long sleeves for the fall. I love that my girl has loved it for years and it is always met with a smile!
As a military family stationed overseas, I appreciate the uniqueness Matilda Jane offers. My daughter doesn’t look like everyone else and she is dressed her age. We get so many compliments! It also has given me the opportunity to connect with an old friend who is a trunk keeper. I love chatting with others who share my passion;)
So I am extra sentimental because my oldest daughter turned six today and my nearly nine month old started crawling and pulling up. All of this growing up business needs to stop! I wish I could freeze time and keep them so sweet and innocent forever and that’s what Matilda Jane clothing helps me do. (Sweetshop or Explore)
We love the compliments and the endless combinations we can come up with. I love how each new item that is released brings new life to pieces we already have in our closet. Matilda Jane also means friendship and caring by bringing such wonderful friends into my life that I have met because we share love of Matilda jane. MJC means helping up to help others with habitat for humanity.
would love summertime!
To me Matilda Jane means confidence shown through a twinkling in the eye and a smile on the face. A guaranteed twirl or two and an occasional curtsy:) And never outshowing your child but complimenting their natural beauty!
Interested in the Explore display for the larger sizes:) MJ also means giving your all and getting love back ten fold!
The words Matilda Jane bring so many thoughts to mind! Love: Love of the fabric, love of the design, love of the details and the love on my little girls face when she puts on her MJ! Happiness: I can tell by following this blog that there is as much happiness in making the clothes as there is when they arrive at my house and we try them on! Friendship: I have met several wonderful girls since I began my love affair with Matilda Jane, my love of beautiful, unique clothing brought me cherished friendships as well! (I am interested in Sweetshop!)
Matilda Jane means incredibly, powerful, giving, creative women infusing love and felicity into every piece of beautiful clothing for our precious children. You 435 gals get it. You know how to create joyful, whimsical, colorful, creative , unique, pretty clothing that makes our girls bubble over with glee and feel cherished and loved. Matilda Jane IS love – for community, fashion, friends, fun, happiness, kids, and smiles – lots and lots of smiles. Big, infectious smiles that spread and grow and touch hearts wherever Matilda Jane travels. We would love the Explore collection. Who am I kidding? Any of them would be amazing and more than welcome. (My daughters are size 2/4 and 8.) Thank you for your ceaselessly amazing generosity.
Matilda Jane is my “art.” Some people love fancy paintings, sculptures, etc., but thats just not my thing. I am not close to being “made of money,” but anytime I have to have a special MJC piece, even my husband says, “baby, thats your art, you get it.” & would love me some “Summertime” for my southern summer girl. <3
Matilda Jane means more to me than just a pretty dress. It’s a sense of individuality, free spirit, something that stands out from the “norm” and just an overall sense of love! Why love? My daughter has a glowing smile each time we get a new piece of MJ & each time she wears it. A passion for such unique, beautiful clothing that MJ takes so much time to make is simply amazing. The friends/mommas I have met thru our “MJ Addiction” brings a smile to my face daily. It truly is a “Matilda Jane World”!
) Oh, love the displays…summertime, size 2!

I only discovered Matilda Jane about a year ago. It was right after my son was diagnosed with Leukemia, and all seemed wrong in the world. Matilda Jane allowed me to escape to a world where little girls were still little girls, and I could dress my daughters in timeless, romantic styles. I would LOVE to win the Sweetshop or Explore display- thanks so much!
When I told my daughter about my trunk show and that we were going to invite her friends and their moms, she said “No mommy Matilda Jane is MY thing”. I love that she wants Matilda Jane to be HER thing. I love the way it makes her feel and boosts her confidence when she gets compliments when wearing it. (Explore)
Gosh, it’s times like this when I really wish that I had been blessed with the gift of words. I was not, but here goes.
Matilda Jane is a character in our everyday lives. Her personality is all things my girls are on any given day. This includes, but is not limited to: happy, sweet, innocent, fun, contrary, energetic, smart, sophisticated, girlie, loving, ect. Matilda Jane is included in all major family events such as vacations and pictures and they would not be the same with her. She is one sweet girlie girl who manages to complete our lives in a subtle way and we do love her dearly. Love you MJ.
I think that sweetshop would be my first choice (for size 6), but explore would be my second choice.
Well MJC to me is a step out of my real life reality. We’ve had some hard times recently, but dressing my 3 girls in knots and ruffles makes me smile. Walking through the mall with them “I” feel like a ROCK STAR! People stop and ask lots of questions, stares and oohs and ahhhs. Simply pleasure in life-thanks to Matilda Jane Clothing.
Opps forgot to say Sweetshop
Matilda Jane means two little girls smiling from ear to ear as they twirl around our home. It means they look like beautiful little girls, not quite ready for adolescence. It means a skip in my heartbeat when I see a dress that I know will be perfect for one of them. And is has come to mean friendships, with ladies around the corner and ladies across the country. For this and more, MJC has been the most special clothing we’ve owned.
Matilda Jane means to me…both my daughter and I headed out the door for a girls day feeling fabulous and knowing that the outfits we rocking are wonderful, fun, funky and well…comment/compliment provoking…even from strangers! Interested in Explore.
Oops – Sweetshop or summertime would be our best bet for fit. Thank you ladies!
Matilda Jane is soft. Matilda Jane is sweet. Matilda Jane is a little bit funky. Matilda Jane is comfy. Matilda Jane is everything that is my three girls. Sweetshop and Explore would work for us: I’ve got one in 2s, one in 6s and one in 8s!
I love Matilda Jane because…my daughter just lights up when I put her clothes out on her bed! I would give anything to live in ft Wayne because I would just DIE to work at such a cool environment! I LOVE everything MJ stands for…helping others, cool friendships, beautiful, creative clothing, and just an all around COOL company!
I would LOVE explore or sweet shop!
Matilda Jane Clothing has become a cherished memory through many of our photos. Smiles when my girls twirl in a skirt or a dress usually followed by laughter when one of them falls. Friendships, tons of friendships been created by and with the girls at Matilda Jane Clothing. A company who likes to keep things on a personal level.
Sweetshop or Summertime
Since the first day I saw an outfit on a little girl at Borders and went home and googled Matilda Jane, I have just become the biggest MJ fan. I love the clothes and accessories but most importantly, i love the inspiration you give me and my daughter creatively and inspirationally (if that is a word?). We are going to have to go to Art Fair at some point because that would just be Amazing!!! I am having so much fun looking at these photos of all the cuteness!!! {Sweetshop because it is my daughter and nieces size}
Matilda Jane to me stands for unique clothing in fun carefree designs that any child would love to wear. It make them feel special with a wonderful mix of design and color. Matilda jane is like a big smile on a child’s face.
Explore display please.
Every morning my two sweet little girls run to their closets to find what they want to wear. When my 4 year old picks out her favorite MJ dress, all you see next is a little diaper bum of a 20 month old running to her closet to point and say “mine.” She will pick out that MJ dress as well. There must be something special about MJ when a 20 month old will pick out her MJ dress in a second over all the others hanging in the closet. No words are enough to describe it. Sweetshop would be my first choice, Summertime then Explore.
1) Matilda Jane dresses and skirts make my daughter’s smile glow.
2) Certain fabrics make me want to “collect them all.”
3) Matilda Jane is always something to look forward to.
4) The clothes are like a flower garden in the closet, with blossoms year-round.
5) Matilda Jane also means one weekend a year that I get to have a really, really good time with girlfriends.
* Summertime or Sweetshop for us. Thanks! *
The way my girls react when the box first arrives at our doorstep, picking out their MJ is NEVER ever a struggle, the endless compliments they receive and how amazing they AND I feel when we wear them! What more could a girl ask for? Sweetshop or explore would be fantastic since going to Art Fair was sadly not in the budget.
Matilda Jane means funky, spunky, sweet and colorful clothes for my wonderfully original little girl. But that’s just about the gorgeous clothes–if you go a little beyond the incredible surface it’s also about forging friendships, blazing trails (literally to Art Fair and figuratively from the confidence the clothes give you), and being the best you can be inside and out! MJ is bliss in the middle of the day when you see your little one twirling around in her ellie. My daughter feels so confident and beautiful in Matilda Jane–thank you for that–a little bit of MJ goodness means so much to us! (if I’m lucky enough to win, I would love the explore display. Thank you for the chance Sam!!)
Matilda Jane is M-arvalouse, A-dorable clothing that are T-imeless and I-ncredibly sweet and L-ovely that make my D-aughters feel A-ngelic when they ware them. J-ubilant and A-nxious sums up how my girls N-erves as we wait to receive the E-xcellent goodies every order brings. Please never stop spreading this kind of excitement and LOVE. <3
Oooopppsie…….Summertime Looks great to me.
My daughters already contagious spirit & individuality is only magnified by Marilda Jane clothing….It has added uniqueness with it’s sumptuous style,
extra smiles with it’s chic designs, and enchantment through all of the beautiful flowing ruffles. Explore…
Where to begin…from the moment we laid eyes on our dd almost 6 years ago in China we knew we were in for a wonderful life. Then, we were introduced to MJC about 2 years later and were in wow! She has always loved the “twirl” of a simple skirt and the burst of laughter from seeing her so excited of simple things is priceless. Our journey is continuing once again as we soon head to China for her baby sister!!!! Cannot wait to continue the tradition of MJC with baby Lia!
(All sets are beautiful- but anything with a lot of 2′s will be great for us)
What a challenge!! I love MJ because it means my daughter can wear something fun, unique, sassy and beautiful EVERY day. At not even 2 years old she gets so much pleasure from her clothes and that means everything to me! Matilda Jane means that Amelia and I BOTH love what she picks to wear and that is HUGE!
I would love the SUMMERTIME!
Matilda Jane means giggles, bunnies, spring time, ice cream sundaes innocence and individuality. There is no other line of clothing that makes my daughter look exactly how I feel about her in my heart. When my daughter wears Matilda Jane clothes she always seems to tickle my heart and put a smile on everyone’s face- We Love Matilda Jane! (As my daughter say’s OOPSY I forgot to tell you my preference in my last comment “Sweet shop would be perfect, but any display is fine.”)
Matilda Jane, to me, means that I have a happy husband! We never have to worry about sacrificing modesty for adorable cuteness! A happy daddy means a happy mommy and sweet little girl! Thanks for making your clothing suitable for little girls!
I love that my daughter has clothes that she loves to wear (I don’t have to force her to get dressed!) and that she stands out from the normal crowd of Gap & Gymboree. Matilda Jane just fits her personality of a bit sassy & girly, but she can still get down & dirty with her twin brother. Which is another great thing about MJ…my son loves his Mighty Acorn tshirts & sweater. His reasoning is b/c they are SOOO soft & comfy. (Sweetshop or Summertime)
I love the heart behind MJC and that it is expressed through beautiful, heartfelt clothes for our little girls. I love that it allows our daughters to shine even brighter while keeping them appropriately, beautifully dressed. MJC is timeless, creative clothing that brings out the beauty in every little girl. Thank you for all you do! Summertime or Sweetshop would be great!
I have three girls that I absolutely adore. Their personalities and styles are so different from one another- I have a diva, a tomboy and a classic girl. I love that Matilda Jane makes clothes that suit each one of them- and that their clothing choices can reflect their own unique personalities. I never force my girls to wear the clothing of my choice, but I always smile to myself when they pull out their MJ. How about the Summertime collection.
Matilda Jane clothes mean that my little girls can be dressed as little girls!! When they put their MJ on I know they are comfortable as well as cute. Your clothes allow them to still be innocent yet a show stopper all at the same time!! We love our MJ!!
(the explore display PLEASE:)))))
Matilda Jane means clothes made of beautiful fabrics that always ensure compliments and individuality. It means cute styles and comfortable clothes that my daughter and I can both enjoy. It means the most beautiful trims, buttons, and flowers that create finishing touches that look like jewelry on clothes. It means I get to buy clothes for my daughter that I wish would have been available when I was a child. And as a mother, it means a way to make new friendships and to bond over beautiful children’s clothes. Sweetshop-please!
Take the good with bad. Mix it up. Perfection not required. Take risks, give back, be a friend, be kind,say I am sorry, give yourself and others a chance and clothe yourself and children in beautiful clothing
Take the good with the bad, be a friend, be kind, say I am sorry,perfection not required, give back,patience is a virtue, be happy and clothe you and your children in beautiful clothes – Summer Time
Explore size 8
Simply put, Matilda Jane means happy. It means a smile on my sweet girl’s face as she twirls in a skirt or spins in a dress. It means gorgeous playtime park fun in big ruffles & little cardigans. It means special, girlie, pretty, love…simply happy!
Matilda Jane means trust,individuality and commitment. You can always trust that every line will be amazingly cute and that the heart of the company is in every piece. You can trust that it will be unique and that your daughter (and you!) can express her individuality. And you can trust that MJC is committed to not only giving us the cutest clothing ever, but that they are also committed to helping others. (One of the things I love the most!!)
Matilda Jane is a sweet girl asking me if every item of clothing on her every day is “Matilda Jane”. She doesn’t know anything else. It is the summer day we met at an Art Fair in Minneapolis. So Summertime is my choice!
MJC means confidence, uniqueness, quality, and all smiles. I love that I can let my little Maddison choose whatever she wants and whatever she chooses will go together. When someone complements on an outfit Maddison is always all smiles with a quick “thank you, it tilda jame”. I think it’s important for girls especially to learn early that whatever you wear no matter the lable, true bueaty is on the inside. MJC is designed from the heart developing true beauty.
The Magic of Matilda Jane! Every time my girls step into their MJ it’s as if Cinderella is stepping into her glass slipper. There are smiles, twirls and exclamations of, “Look Mama, I’m a Princess,” as they run off to conquer their next great adventure. Matilda Jane represents the essence of Childhood: Beautiful, Unique, Unpredictable and above all . . . Magical!! (Sweetshop)
I love how MJ as a company is always sharing stories, giving back to the community, and creating bonds between Moms everywhere. I always feel good about purchasing clothing from you girls! Thanks for being so amazing, inspirational, and creating clothes that are spunky and full of character. My girls alway SHINE a little brighter in your pretties. <3
They are in 2's or 4/6 — so Summertime or Sweet Shop would make my day. I would also be happy to make a donation to Habitat for Humanity.
Your generosity is contagious!
My wife asked me…What does MJC mean to me? I immediately thought of a local artist here in Detroit and created a song parody of Eminem’s “Lose Youself”…reflecting my wife and my time at the 435 Art Fair. It might be a little longer than 5 sentences, so I apologize…Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted in one moment would you capture it or just let it slip?…Her palms are sweaty, knees weak, charge card ready…The women have been lined up for hours, already…She’s nervous, but on the surface she looks calm and ready to buy,but she keeps on forgettin what she wrote down, the 435 crowd goes so loud…Doors open wow, but credit card won’t come out…She’s choking how, everybody’s buying now…The clock’s run out, time’s up over, bloah!…Snap back to reality, Oh there goes another rack of tees…Oh no, there goes my wife again, she choked…She’s so mad, but she won’t give up that easy,…no she won’t have it, she knows her whole back’s to these ropes…It don’t matter, she’ll cope
She knows that, but she’ll hope…Her wardrobe so stagnant she knows…When she goes home, that’s when it’s back to the web again yo…This whole rhapsody she better go capture this moment and hope it don’t pass her….You better lose yourself in the moment…You own it, you better never let it go…
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to buy low…
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo…I was so wrapped up in my rap that I forgot to post what I would like to win for my daughter: Sweetshop!!
MJC means lollipops, innocence, twirly girls, grass between your toes, stomping in pink boots,hair pretties, big smiles. My daughter, Molly Kate, running toward me for the “biggest hug ever” thanking me for her new Matilda Jane. The busting out pride with every compliment and the joy of sharing MJC with someone new, it’s like sharing the best secret ever! Summertime, Thank you!
Matilda Jane Clothes help me celebrate my little girl’s uniqueness. I want her to appreciate the qualities about her that make her different, and these special clothes are just an extension of that. To quote Coco Chanel, “In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.” Our Matilda Jane is irreplaceable and different, just like my amazing daughter. We would love explore, Thank You.
For the little girls I know, they do not like to try things on. BUT NOT IF IT’S MJC! They make an exception then…mine can’t wait to get an MJ box, & that’s when I see the magic MJ has created. I love to see the way they light up wearing something they feel so girlie & unique in. I think they know it makes them different & they embrace it, instead of worrying what others think. YAY for Independence ! (Explore) (:
How fun it would be to explore in Explore! How fun to dig for roly poly bugs, run around barefooted on the sidewalk, hug a tree and take your dog for a walk all while being as cute as you can be in your Matilda Jane. My sweet explorer would thrilled for a suprise especially on July 6th!!!
I know one day when my daughter is grown that I will look back on her childhood and envision Matilda Jane. She loves the bright colors and the puppy ribbon trim. I love the sweetness and the one of a kind fabrics. But, I know in the future, we will treasure that we were a part of something wonderful-Matilda Jane-a family of people who spread joy and love to the world.(Explore)
Matilda Jane means uniqueness. It means that I can dress my daughter in her outfit knowing that we will not see another little one with that exact same outfit on that day. It means we can mix and match any way we want and it will still ROCK your socks off. And it means that I can showcase my daughters fun personality through clothing.
I’m interested in EXPLORE.
Love it.
We would LOVE to win Explore! When I first heard/saw Matilda Jane I have to admit I wasn’t your biggest fan. (This was WAY back, when you first launched out on your own…) I have since realized the error of my ways, and can’t believe I wasn’t in love with those first few lines. (Totally kicking myself now.) It’s one of our most favorite brands to wear!
SMILES- the smiles I see on my girls’ faces when they put on their MJ and twirl around giggling with delight! The smiles on mommy and daddy’s faces seeing them so happy! The smile on strangers’ faces when they see little girls actually dressed like little girls in fun, bright, and original clothes! These smiles go deeper than the face straight through to the heart! Matilda Jane, to me, means “spreading the love” through SMILES
Even Daddy loves Matilda Jane at out home! I love dressing my beautiful daugher in the fun, beautiful, unique clothing that perfectly shows off her personality. We would love to win the explore.
Ooops…forgot, I’d love Sweetshop
Matilda Jane embodies the free and creative spirit of children. It’s comfortable, whimsical, and unique. I also like that Matilda Jane is a company that is generous and helps others, qualities that are important to teach our kids. I’m so glad my daughter has a few more years to wear this gorgeous clothing.
Matilda Jane means my girls can be comfy and still be dressed adorable. It means my daughters can stand out and in a good way! It is a way for my oldest to express her own sence of style while Momma still stays happy that she still looks her age! And of course it means everyday is a photoshoot! Hit me up for Explore size 8 and/or 2!!
I forgot to mention in my previous post I am interested in Explore…my daughter wears an 8
Even a dad can see what MJ is to little girls. To me and them it is laughter and smiles inside and out.
Summertime, Sweetshop, then Explore.
Wow, what can I say about MJ, I LOVE that your clothes are so unique. My sweet girl has such a fun, exciting personality and your clothing matches her
. You put a spin on the fashion for little girls and they enjoy getting to dress up in your clothes. THANK YOU!!! I love the sweetshop, but would be happy with anything 4 or above.
Every morning when my 4 year old runs to get dressed my 20 month old follows. When she picks her favorite MJ dress from the closet all you see seconds later is the diaper bum of a 20 month old running down the hall to point at her closet and say “mine, mine, mine!” When a 20 month old will pick her MJ dress out of all the others, you know there is something special about it. You can not even put it into words.
Summertime, sweetshop, then Explore (any will work for my girls)
MJC truly means happiness in the middle of a storm to me. It means sunshine on a cloudy day. It means uniqueness when surrounded by the ordinary. Above all, it means a StUnNiNg little girl in fabrics that match her bubbly personality and VERY happy parents!
We would love to see my 2 year old in the sweetshop or summertime collection! We would be extremely grateful for either!!
Now that I went back and reread the post
My favorite collection is the summertime, but would be happy with anything you gave me 
THANKS
So, I already wrote 4 sentences earlier and am allowed one more…
MJC means DREAMS COME TRUE!!!
Matilda Jane means we are looking good!! I just love all the DANG cute clothes! My girls love all the complements they get when wearing MJ. Thanks for making clothes that are so sweet! We would take anything in a 2 or 6:) thanks Bridget Hansen and the hansen’s girls:)
Beautiful, Lovely, Fun, Exciting, friendships, a new beginning and so much more. After having two very busy boys which I love so dearly, we were blessed with a girl! MJ has made it a new world for me. A joy to dress and love her! Thank you! Sweetshop or Summertime!
Sweetshop or Explore
Matilda Jane Means for us….. 1.Playful 2.Young 3.Carefree 4.Sweet 5.Spunky
These all describe MJ and my daughter, especially when she is wearing it
sweetshop/summertime…inspiration…love…family…fun…and my lit ones!
sorry misread i thought it said 5 words or less. I would have to say it brings me so much inspiration…all the colors layers and desgins. It also means family to me…great company that stand for family! Love…in so many ways…love for my lit. girl who always says mom can I wear my MJC today it is so pretty and I love feeling pretty. It is so fun wearing MJC even for myself…it alwos for so many didfent fun pieces to be put together…and my lit. ones because they just make me happy and i love seeing them in all the bright colorful pieces and enjoy seeing them so happy when wearing MJC. So yes…inspiration, family, love, fun and my lit. ones! Thank you so much for always having us express ourselves here, i love reading all the responses!
I knew I should have put a bid in and got sidetracked!! Super bummed I didn’t get anything in an 8 for my daughter. I thought she was kinda outgrowing MJ (sorry), plus there wasn’t much left when I got over there! BUT when I got home she was freaking out over her little sisters stuff!! We are so “Explore”! We have a big yard and are always on an adventure and exploring the world around us!! With 4 kids there is always something to explore!!
What MJC means to me…simple, fun, free, inspiring, and love.
I love Matilda Jane because it is unique in every way possible! It is unique in that it’s clothes are different than anything around and the combinations are ENDLESS for cuteness! I also like it because the company itself is unique…unpredictable yet so personal and giving! I LOVE that, and I love to support such a company!:) I would love sweetshop, but summertime is uber fab with that bonnet! But if I had to choose, it would be Sweetshop!:)
P.S. Also bummed I didn’t get a picture with you Denise. Next year I guess! Great meeting you and your ADORABLE staff!! Seriously are they for real??? They were all sooooo Cute!!
MJ, for me, represents the reality that my dreams came true. I am mom to a beautiful 15 month old little girl, and finally I am shopping for my child, not someone else’s child. MJ lets me dress Caroline in a way that makes her look as special as she is to me. I ordered our first mommy-and-me coordinating outfits online this morning and still cannot believe that I am so lucky. So I pinched myself, and realized that I’m not dreaming, this is real life and I am finally a mom
We would be honored to win Summertime.
Oh, the day I discovered Matilda Jane… the squeals of JOY! I had finally discovered clothing that screamed innocence, pure “girlyness” & total uniqueness! I had longed for something to dress my little girl in who was 5 at the time. Now 7, she still adores her MJ clothes… the smiles and twirls are endless! I asked her how she feels in MJ: “happy, interesting, fancy, fascinating & stylish!”
Sweetshop (6) or Explore (8)
P.S.S. If the “Explore” display said “When I was 8″ I have a picture of it if you would like it. ;^)
MJC are my favorite “go to” pieces for my daughter and myself! Matilda Jane means: simply beautiful with attention to detail, comfortable for work or pleasure and best of all washes great to wear over and over again! Also, MJC are a “MUST” for family photos (capturing innocent moments) and makes packing easy for trips (because of all the coordinating pieces)! Explore:)
Matilda Jane is more than a clothing line:
It’s the spunky state of mind that encourages my little girl to be creative from the moment she wakes.
It’s the blissful practice of finding beauty, humor and fun in the details.
It’s the shining example that we can (and ought to be) be helpful to others, even in unexpected ways.
Oops. Explore would fit best or Sweetshop.
The freedom of the fabric and the ability for a girl to keep her youth. The bonding that occurs whenever a conversation is initiated because of an outfit or simply love of the brand. The generous way you all give to the community, to friends and to us the shoppers. Finally that the clothing is diverse in how it can be worn and represents your consumers as diverse personalities and styles.
oops! I meant sweetshop (the one with sz 2 & sz 6)
Thank You again!
Matilda Jane is simply beautiful. MJC leaves my little girls feeling like a one-of-a-kind princess. The MJC pieces radiate personality, flair, sparkle, warmth, confidence, and love. My girls feel loved everytime they are hugged by Matilda Jane. Thank you from a Mommy that loves three very special little ladies! (Sweetshop or Summertime please)
MJC means LOVE! Everyday is a photo op since my girls always wear MJ, and I love that the pictures capture their innocence and their enjoyment in even the most mundane things. I’m also in awe of the spirit and generosity at MJC, and was so wishing I had the opportunity to go to AF…To be in a place full of MJC would have been awesome!!!
(Would love anything in size 6 or 8, so Sweet Shop or Explore–Thank you!!)
My daughter and I enjoy wearing Matilda Jane because we know that each and every piece is designed with love. I used to sew for us when I was blessed to be a stay at home mom. I lovingly created clothing that would last more than one season so it “grew” with my daughter. Dresses became tops, and pants became capris. Now that I’ve gone back to work, Matilda Jane means that my daughter and I can continue to wear clothing that is simply beautiful, unique, grows with my daughter and, most importantly, is still designed with love. Sweetshop or Explore
Summertime or Sweetshop Please!!!
Matilda Jane is way beyond dressing my daughter, it is now about friendships that I’ve made and continue to keep! It started off as dressing my daughter but now it is actually a way that I bond with one of my best buds from highschool and meet other moms. We talk about the clothes & stay connected by our daughters and our Matilda Jane obsession. I live in Georgia and my best bud, she lives in Michigan and we are just truely adoring MJ…what it does for our daughters and what it does for us!!!
I remember the first time I saw Matilda Jane, we were in an airport and I thought to myself, “That is the most precious outfit I have ever seen.” At the time, my daughter was only a baby but I knew that someday she would wear Matilda Jane.
My whole life I have dreamed of having a little girl and now here she is and I have so many things I want to teach her. Among those things is that it is okay to be a young lady – one that has modesty, kindness, and meekness. Matilda Jane is just one way for me to show my daughter that she can be cherished and loved for who she is: a beautiful, girly girl!
We would love any of the clothes, but Summertime would be our first choice! Thanks!
As the daddy of a sweet little girl, Matilda Jane means more to me than words can express. It’s like 100,000 fireflies. Magical, beautiful, whimsical, unique, and, well, just awesome. And that really doesn’t seem like an adequate enough description. MJC means dressing my “daddy’s girl” like a little girl.
I forgot to add Sweet Shop or Summertime would fit my girl.
I LOVE the unique and whimsical look of Matilda Jane items. The items make photographs appear timeless…getting lost in the moment. This would be the perfect way to begin our collection of the perfect pieces for my little one! Summertime or Sweetshop please. Thanks!
Love the sweetness of the vintage-looking florals, the amount of flair and funkiness which is perfect for my sweet, spunky girl, and the ability to coordinate mommy/daughter pieces. It always makes my little girl light up when we can match! Interested in Sweetshop!
My two year old laughing, that loud laugh when my oldest child makes a monkey face. The hug that your little one gives you with their hand wrapped around your arms tightly. The first time they say I love you mommy! Matilda Jane captures childhood! Its allowing little girls to stay little girls…
Explore – I have always told my daughters beauty comes from the inside, but Wearing matilda jane brings such happiness to their little faces. It makes me happy when someone else smiles at their joy in life. It is hard in this era to keep our little girls young and innocent but im thrilled my tweens are still sweet.
Matilda Jane means fun clothes that are comfy and beautiful. My dh loves that the girls look fabulous in their Matilda Jane. It’s still not well known here and people stop us all the time to compliment their clothes. Thanks!! I would love the explore collection
My children wearing their Maitlda Jane makes them feel special. Twirling, spinning and laughing; then I capture their moments with a photograph and the memories of them in their “special clothes” remain timeless and documented.
~Explore~
Wearing Matilda Jane puts a smile on my daughter’s face. I have plenty of pictures of my daughter in her beautiful clothes. Memories that will I will treasure and enjoy for a lifetime!
My daughter has Turner Syndrome and shes 5 but looks about 2. I love that Matilda Jane makes her feel so beautiful and she loves looking at your clothes online. I know it would make her Kindergarten year to win some Matilda Jane.Matilda Jane is a great company and thank you for making my little girl happy.(I think that sweetshop or summertime would work best for her)
In all honesty Matilda Jane means so much to me. It is something that brings my daughter and me so much joy and happiness. MJC is the most beautiful clothing that I have ever laid eyes on and ever since I discovered it I have not been able to buy much of anything else. It means being able to dress my precious little girl in something unique, sweet, sassy, fun, and just plain beautiful which is how I see her. With the looks, quality, people behind the brand…it is something I can buy and put her in that I am proud of…Summertime (1st) or Sweetshop (2nd)…thanks!
Having finally had a daughter later in my life (my two boys are in high school!!), I am so excited to have stumbled across Matilda Jane, and the vintage, yet whimsical look of the collections – the way I always dreamed of dressing a little girl. It does seem that she is the only one in our area who wears MJ, but that’s ok – we’ll continue to take all the compliments!! (and give you some marketing!!)
Summertime or Sweetshop would fit best!!
As I was folding laundry, I ironically, I was thinking about this question.. What could I say here that would make me stand out from all these women, what would make me- my words- special, What makes me unique??? It occurred to me that is what my daughter says to herself every morning when she picks her clothes, “In this world of track homes and mall clothes, what can I wear that makes me stand out, feel special, different than all the other girls.”
Matilda Jane- you do that. Thanks for the help..

To me Matilda Jane has always meant Made with LOVE. You can tell each piece is made with extra special attention to every detail. Your clothes allow girls to feel unique, special, strong, confident and girly. All things I want my girls to be. Go Sweetshop!!!!!
To me, Matilda Jane means celebrating a girl’s unique personality and style through beautifully crafted, sweet and sassy clothing. Matilda Jane captures the essence of a girl’s exuberance and fanciful nature, as well as her youthful confidence that she can do or be anything! Matilda Jane is also exceptionally gifted at doing things out of pure kindness – sharing with others, just to make them happy. You have a business that people are drawn to and feel good about supporting because of the heart and soul that is so evident in all that you do! My daughter and I would be beyond thrilled and honored to receive the Sweet Shop or Summertime displays. Thank you!
There is so much I love about Matilda Jane or “Tilda Ma Jane” as my dd sometimes calls it. The uniqueness, innocence, & fun with a little bit of “Cheeky” with all the endless combinations of mixing and matching as anything goes. Each child can express their own unique style. The cute layering, the twirls, the accessories just make it pop even more. The heartfelt love and creativity that you ladies put into making not only the clothes but also the close friendships that come from it. Makes you feel welcome even without personally meeting. The caring and sharing and spreading the love Matilda Jane brings about.
Sweetshop: I love MJC for it’s funky, unique spirit… for that extra glow that my girlys exude when frolicking in their “Mammila Jane” (as my 3 year old says). Additionally, as a small business owner myself, I love Denise & David’s story of how MJC was born & grew because of the drive within them to succeed even when they were told they couldn’t do it!
i’m comment #800000, but i’m going to try anyway
…….
i love dressing my girls in mjc because it keeps them young and it keeps them sweet. i want my babies to look like babies and my little girls to look like LITTLE girls! raising girls is hard in this day and age. i want them to feel good about themselves, but i also want them to know that beauty is not just what’s on the outside. mjc helps get that message across – and it doesn’t hurt that it comes in a pretty cute package!
Ok, first of all, who was not bidding on that darling birthday display….I lovie, love, love, loveeee it! Matilda Jane means my little curlie haired blondie can be confident in herself, in the ingenuity that however she pairs up her darling outfits, they are her very own, and they give her a self confidence each time someone tells her how cute and darling she looks,and she knows she’s one of a kind. xoxox
I forgot to mention…..summertime is the display we would love! (but we’d really love any of them!)
Matilda Jane is the epitome of adorable, beautiful, yet chic little girl expression. I love that every article of clothing is sweetly & perfectly designed with a precious girl in mind. My daughter feels so “frilly” and fun wearing her MJ clothes, and not to mention she looks incredibly cute! I would be honored to receive ANY of the displays, but my little girl is in size 2, so the Summertime sizes would suit us best! Thank you for this opportunity!
I’ve watched my daughter grow up in Matilda Jane. She’s a tough little tomboy but still looks beautiful playing with frogs and mud in her knot dresses and she loves every minute of it!! I love that the clothes are beautiful but not fussy and so much fun for her to wear. (I think explore would be fitting don’t you think?). Thanks for the chance.
MJ means holding on to my sweet little girls for just a bit more. The innocence captured in your designs speaks to a simpler time that I strive to give my family. I would enjoy the Summer or Sweetshoppe.
MJC has become an addiction to me for my little girls once I put the first pheasant top on them, added the ruffles…oh my that addiction become a wonderful happy place for us. The compliments and the quality of the clothing was extremely overwhelming. Thank you for the hard work to make us all go to a happy place.
Summertime, happiness, joy & laughter would be fabulous!
Forgot to add Sweetshop or Summertime thanks!
Matilda Jane to me means “Beautiful & Unique”. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE everything about MJ, from the clothes to the generously of the company. I love it when people say how cute my daughter looks, the best part is when my husband said, I have to admit she does look cute in MJ. I love how MJ makes my daughter happy and that’s all that matters. Sweetshop or Explore – Thank You for this opportunity.
My little girl is still young and is just now beginning to giggle when she wears her MJ outfits…but for me, every time I dress her in Matilda Jane, it brings out the giddiness I used to feel as a child when I opened up a present that I really LOVED. Its like someone is tickling me from the inside out and I can’t help but laugh. Matilda Jane clothing stands out in a crowd like seeing a beautiful mosaic walk into a room that is all black and white. (I would feel beyond giddy to receive summertime, or sweetshop as my 2nd choice)
I know whenver my granddaughter Annalise is wearing a Matilda Jane outfit, because it has a sassy, yet old fashioned flair. My grandmother’s name was Matilda, so it is a name I associate with the past century, but it also expresses flowers and warmth and quality. I have 2 granddaughters and it would be fun to surprise them with the Summertime display. Thanks for making this offer.
To me and my daughter Matilda Jane is just PURE HAPPINESS! I get so exctied every time I place an order or go to a show. My daugher, 2 years old loves to wear her “TILDA JANES” and her face lights up with pure happiness and exctiement when we get a new “TILDA Jane” box on our front porch. Thank you for all you do to make me and my little girl smile!!! Summertime or Sweetshop would be perfect
!
I do Foster Care & most of the children come with little of clothes. Most of the time what they do have is in a garbage bag.. The look on the little girls face’s when they get a package in the mail, just for them with Beautiful Clothes that also are just for them….”Their face’s” are what Matilda Jane mean’s to me & my children!!! Thank all of you who work so hard to make ALL little girl’s Dream’s come true!!! (Summertime)
MJ personifies my daughter for me. The fabrics, the ruffles, the buttons…. It all reminds me of the blessing she is. MJ means constant streams of compliments from strangers in public and it means originality and uniqueness. Also, random, but since I dont dry our MJ clothing, it always smells so much like home when we are away, much moreso than all the other clothing that was pit on the dryer.
Love summertime and sweetshop.
For explore
A speck off frills with a pinch of pink
a touch of lace and a dainty wink
Mix these in with a love for dance
And heaps of laughter and some beauty perchance
Add oodles more of joy and grace
And put some dimples in just the right place
For a final touch give her a head of curls
In a beautiful knot dress
And now you have created a girl
Matilda Jane clothes make us happy. “They make my heart sing” is what my little girl likes to say. Compliments and smiles. Twirls and sweetness. We love mjc.
Any of the displays would make our heart sing, but sweetshop would be our first choice.
Matilda Jane screams love that shines through the heart!It has a perfect personality like no other.The creativity of the clothing are like beaming rainbows.And, the one that is wearing it feels like they are shining with GOLD inside and out!
Matilda Jane is the essence of sweet girliness. It captures the genuine beauty of all females of every age, regardless of their personality. It is classic, fun, sassy, punchy, colorful, sweet, and/or daring. Not only does Matilda Jane’s timeless designs flatter all girls, regardless of age, race, creed, ethnicity, etc, it brings together these ladies young and old. Matilda Jane is about friendship, family, and love.
(Interested in Explore, fits two of my dd’s and my niece who we have guardianship of!
) Thank you! Devon Knudson
When I think of MJC, I think of not only a girly, sweet clothing company, but also a family company with full of spirit and caring for others. And I think the sweetshop selection would fit us well. Thank you for giving us this opportunity.
To me, MJC is Unity at every level. Unity among the MJC staff (clearly evident at art fair), unity among women (Val Koop), unity among humanity (Habitat), unity among my MJC friends (caring friendships), and most of all unity with my girls who are still very little and while I am not we still all like to dress up, play games, love on each other, and enjoy our time together. (I’d love either Summertime (preferred) or Sweetness) Thanks!
Matilda Jane is fun, sassy, chic! Matilda Jane isn’t a crowd follower, she/he are leaders…confident and always smiling! These are the traits I see when not only my kids wear it, but also in the photos of others when wearing Matilda Jane. Explore. Thanks!
have to share real quick – on vacation – car broke down – three hour wait on side of road – my five year old says – it’s okay mom- we’re stylin – we have on our Tilda’Ma Jane!!!! And it was ok!!!
Why I love mj: this is a loaded question because mj is not just a brand of clothing. It’s also a designers outlet for charity, a co where you talk to the ladies who might grace the cookbook(at times even meet), and yes clothing that’s captures what every girl loves- colors, twirls, ruffles, and everything unique. I love it that my daughter will come home and within 15 min have changed out of whatever non mj she’s wearing to throw the summertime or kanga stew on! Why? She loves being a girl!! Mj really captures the heart of being young and being a girl!
And forgot to add summertime.
ps I meant lookbook not cookbook lol but I think cookbook works too!
It’s a family affair at our house-this includes my son, my husband, my daughter and myself. We love the whimsy, free spirit, and unique style that is Matilda Jane because it describes our family. My daughter has a favorite skirt that she tries to where everyday and she also loves the fact that she and I can getting cool matching outfits. For myself, I love the comfort of your awesome clothes. Thanks for giving our family something cool to look forward to wear everyday that expresses how we feel-happy! (Summertime-4)
Matilda Jane means so much to me because, as a mother of girls, I want them to realize how their value runs much more deeply than the size or shape of their bodies. These clothes battle the alarming trend of sexualizing young girls (I commented about this on your FB page not too long ago). They are richly feminine but not body-conscious, they are loose and comfortable and sweet. My girls feel lovely and confident about WHO THEY ARE in their Matilda Jane clothing, and as a mother that is completely priceless. (Explore, thank you!)
I loved the pre-party so much and had the honor of meeting Denise’s Mom, Nancy. We were talking about MJ and how Denise had made this magical company grow so big. Her Mother told me Denise did not sew growing up but she was very artistic. Thinking about this and realizing how much I love the Platinum line and how each piece is a work of art and unique. I dawned on me Denise you are the Picaso of Today only with clothing – Thank you.
(Would be thrilled to win the Explorer line)
We have only recently discoverd Matilda Jane. I love the family feel! Even our trunk keeper has made us feel like part of her family. My 20 month looks so cute in her MJ. Best of all, she said she looks gorgous! Summertime
There’s something a little terrifying about raising a daughter these days, but as soon as I knew I was having a girl, I knew I’d be buying her some Matilda Jane. It seems to be the best of what it means to be a little girl: whimsical, fun, a little over the top and completely beautiful. To me, the clothes are something she can wear while having tea parties with Daddy, while pretending to be a princess AND when we leave the house – it’s the perfect balance, in my opinion. As my daughter grows, I hope it is something that she will wear and retain some of the childlike joy I see in the clothing.
oh and I’m interested in summertime!
I waited a long time to finally dress a little girl in my house. I was looking for different but sweet, durable, yet comfortable, soft and girly without looking like a miniature teenager. I saw a Gypsy Blue Maja dress on eBay and knew I had found what I had been looking for. Matilda Jane Unpredictable Clothing Company- Most Jaunty Unique Cuddly Cuteness. Being just a year old, she does not provide too many opinions about her clothing yet, but should my 11 year old son get her dressed, she always wears Matilda Jane. (Summertime or Sweetshop, love the 2′s)
My granddaughter is a year and a half.SHE loves her Matilda Jane ! It makes her eyes light up.At her age it already sparks pride and confidence,That is something I think you can never I’ve a child too much of! Believe me she knows the difference. Summertime is the best match for her size, but sweetshop is fantastic too.
GENEROSITY: I really am proud when we wear MJC, not only because it’s ridiculously adorable on my little girls (and MY favorite thing to wear, too), but because you do so much more than make cute clothing! We love the unexpected surprises, the contests, and the giveaways – there always seems to be a party on the MJC fb page and blog. Even more impressive is your ongoing generosity toward both larger organizations and individual families that could simply use a little love. You’re real people who are accessible and talk to us (even though you seem like celebrities) and make us feel like we’re a part of this too!
Your displays were incredible – I guess I would pick summertime, but they were all beautiful.
When i think of mjc i think about giving frienship and feeling confident. First though i think of my friends seriously you have no idea what great friends i have met bc of a mutual love for mjc. Some of. Them kindred spiritzs. These girls have given me so mug weather advice a dresss i was dying for or just silent support. Aftser that it is that I finally found clothing that is as free spirited as me. Also I love how every single piece has the ability. To make you or your daughters felt like the prettiest girl in the room..
Matilda Jane is wearable artwork that makes my granddaughters happy when wearing it, and me smile when I see it. It is simply beautiful, carefree, and oh so much fun! Just like them!
To me, MJ means a thousand smiles! The smiles on all of our girls faces (and a few boys – my son loves his MJ shorts and tees), when they put their MJ clothes on and twirl around; the smiles on all of us moms/dads when strangers tell us how cute our children are in their MJ clothes; the smiles I imagine on all of the people at 435, as they go about their day; and lastly – but most importantly, the smiles on the faces of the recipients of MJ’s many charitable works! P.S. – I like the sweetshop display, but any of them would be great!
To be honest, Matilda Jane Clothing in the beginning for me mean’t my wife was spending way too much money on children’s clothes. But… now … I must say, when I see my little girl wearing your clothes, I love that she is the best dressed little girl wherever we go. I love how she tells me “Daddy, aren’t I so pretty” in her unique outfits and how she stops me to watch her “twirl” in the MJ skirts. I love that the clothes are timeless on her and reflect her childhood and memories in each piece and wish I could keep her this young forever. I would love for her to win (Explore) since my wife wasn’t able to go to the Art Fair this summer and I still feel bad about it.
Matilda Jane means uniqueness, beauty and friendship to me. (and slight addiction..lol)—-my daughter LOVES wearing her “tilda jane” because it is so girly and sweet. I love it because it is unique and almost a guarantee that someone will stop us and ask “where did you get her outfit”. I love telling people about Matilda Jane and all that you do for others. I have also met lifelong friends because of our love for Matilda Jane clothing.
oh, and we are in between sizes, so any of the displays would work for us. thank you.
I fell in love with Matilda Jane Clothing 3 years ago, literally the moment I walked into my first trunk show and saw all those beauties lined up on the rack. To me it means childhood, and pure innocence It also makes me immediately think of my daughter’s smile, which is what is on her face when she proudly wears her MJ. I love how she quietly turns her head around to say thanks when someone compliments her on her dress and I see the look in her eyes as she turns back around. She FEELS good, and what is better than that!!
I would choose the sweetness.
Summertime would be my choice, not b/c my daughter wears a size two anymore (she is in a four) but b/c Matilda Jane brings out the giving spirit in myself & others–from the “Spread the Love” to building a house to the many friendships I have made b/c of MJ it truly inspires me to give back and embrace the uniqueness and beauty in everyone. I choose Summertime b/c I want to be able to give the gift of MJ to others who might not know about it, or be able to afford it. I want to share the beauty of MJ–and Summertime has 9 pieces that I would love to give as a gift to nine other woman and help spread the MJ love!
CONFIDENT!!!I am 42 with boys 18 & 14 and a 2 year old daughter
(a suprise gift from God!). I was the middle of three girls growing up and we didn’t have the kind of clothes our peers had so confidence was something I have had to work on through the years. I have been fortunate enough to purchace Matilda Jane for my daughter and a few things for myself over the past two years. I have never felt more confident about myself and my daughter is full of personality and confidence. Matilda Jane Rocks is a true statement for me…Thanks!!!Interested in any of the three displays size 6 or 8.
I love how unique the clothing is and how adorable my girls look wearing it. I love to see them twirl with pride when some asks where we got the outfit and they say “It’s Tilda Jane”. I love that I can honestly let them dress themselves and sometimes their MJ combos are cuter than anything I’ve thought of… which leads to instant smiles just in time for me to grab the camera! Explorer size 2 or 4 please : )
To me Matilda Jane clothing is about innocent and beauty and hopefully instilling in both of my daughters a quiet confidence starting at a young age. Sweetshop and Explore are my picks. Thanks for all that you do!!!

Matilda Jane is extraordinary but simply, lovely and funky, skillfully mismatchy in the most wonderfully waysies. Lasting, lasting, lasting for yearsies and yearsies… as my Lula “Cakey” would remarky of her pantsies, dressies and shirtsies. And how lovely you are reading all of our remarks. It’s why my little monkey and I love Matilda Jane ;]
Matilda Jane Clothing is the reason why I wanted a little girl. Just dressing my little sugarplum in your classic yet trendy MJ pieces brings such joy and happiness to both hers and my face!!! The innocence of a child is captured and showcased in all of your pieces. It’s style, class with a little sass. Not to mention the most comfortable clothes in all of the land!!!!!
oops…I forgot to include Summertime as my choice
Matilda Jane means so much to a lot of us. What you stand for and how you ALWAYS give back, make me a fan for life and proud to put your clothes on my DD. She loves wearing every stitch of your amazing, quirky, inqenious, to die for designs and I love the constant compliments.
Thanks so much for staying true to what you believe in while ROCKING out the cutest clothes in the land! WE LOVE YOU! We are a size 2 so either sweetshop or summertime (whichever is girliest)!
Ok, make it summertime if it’s the first collection pictured! Thanks!
I love that my girls smile BIG when they wear MJC!! I love the looks people give them when they are out wearing them in public and we smile back as they ooo and awww. I think the most I love about your company is that you have an honest love and concern for your company/family and us. I love reading on FB and your blog about how you give to sooo many and for that reason I will continue to SHOP
.
sweetshop or explore thanks!! *knl
When I first discovered Matilda Jane through a friend I didn’t realize how it would impact my live. Because of MJ I have made some amazing friends. I have found a hobby, my husband always told me to find a hobby. Most of all I have found some clothes that my daughter and I love to buy together. Because of MJ we have spent many more hours together shopping and picking out MJ clothes to wear. ~Explore~
The originality of each collection!! Love all the displays any one would do”
!:)
Matilda Jane to me is more than just a clothing line. Matilda Jane is a comfort, a warm feeling, and most importantly a friendship. ( Although my significant other likes to call it a reason for divorce, lol). I have met so many nice women through buying Matilda Jane, and while in the beginning they were only strangers they are now close friends and more like family. Matilda Jane is a way for me and my daughter to enjoy something together and for us to express ourselves with MJC unique sense of style. I couldnt imagine a closet without MJ, its just a way of life!
I love Matilda Jane because it’s unique quirkiness makes it every little girl and big girls dream! The feeling of kindness and hope exudes from every piece of clothing! – Explore
p.s. Sorry I’m late commenting. Friday was my bday and this is the first chance I’ve had to check my computer!
Sentence 5
Matilda Jane means sweet but free spirited, friendship, loyalty, an extention to our family.
Matilda Jane is like the sunshine after the rain. I love it b/c it makes me feel young and vibrant. My girls love it b/c it makes them feel pretty, in turn I love it! Thanks for making such great clothes for my sweet girls and for me! I
Would love a chance to win the summertime!
To me Matilda Jane represents the way a little girl should look, in ruffles and sundresses…to look as if at any time she could run thru the field to set down at a picnic lunch with no worries or cares in the world. That is why I love buying MJ…plus the ooooohhhhs and aaaaahhhhsss when they see your little ones in them are just priceless! Thank you for all of the many hours of hard work and the things you give up in order to give all of us the joy of Matilda Jane! You all are the BEST;-))) ~Summertime~
To me Matilda Jane reprints the way a little girl should look! All sundresses and ruffles, ready tom run thru the field to am picnic lunch that is waiting. No worries or cares…just amazement at everything around her! That is the feeling I have when I see our little girl in her Matilda Jane! Thank you for all of your many hours of hard work and the things that you have given up in order to give all of us the joy of Matilda Jane;-)) ~Summertime~
Oops..sorry about the type o’s! I am typing on my phone!
Individuality! My daughter has been wearing MJ since she was 12 months old. It has encouraged her to be her spunky, quirky, outgoing self. I believe that she knows beauty is from within, but she “feels” beautiful when she wears MJ. You can see it in her smile when she looks in the mirror and when she gets compiments. I am grateful that you women share your talend with us! (Summertime)
I apologize for the multiple posts. My phone was telling me that it had not gone thru and posted when in fact it had:-) Thanks!!!
So I already posted 4 lines but wanted to say this (you don’t have to count it…MJ makes my little girl feel special when so much of this year has been about her brother in and out of the hospital, Dr after Dr…it is worth every penny when she smiles and says thank u thank u mommy I am a princess!!! SO THANK YOU FOR MAKING HER FEEL SPECIAL. (sorry I went over but wanted u to know)
MJC is AMAZING to me! It is not only beautiful clothing, but wonderful, caring women that put their whole heart into MJC. I have only been able to purchase just a few things from here, but if I could afford it this is all my girls would wear. BEST COMPANY EVERE! Any of the displays would be loved in our home. I do not care which one they would all work for us!
Matilda Jane Clothing means never having to question whether my daughter looks age appropriate, adorable, comfortable, or completely over the moon in her outfit. Of course she does! We love your artistic genius and can’t get enough! Oh, and I think I could make any of those displays work!
Matilda Jane Clothing means never having to question if my daughter looks age appropriate, adorable, comfortable, or completely over the moon in her outfit. Of course she does! Your designs are artistic genius, and we can’t get enough! Sweetness or Summertime.
My daughter still wants to look like and dress like me, and when we wear MJ, we look sweet and fancy. My husband declares his girls “beautiful” and we link arms, and skip through our day. It won’t be like this forever, so I will cherish it today.
I am intersted in anything you would like to bless me with- if it doesn’t fit Bella, it will fit my next daughter!
What MJ means to me? A way for me to dress my daughter in funky, out-of-the-box clothes without breaking the bank. What MJ means to my daughter? A way to get excited about getting dressed even when I break the news to her that the Princess Belle costume isn’t joining us at Barnes and Noble again this week.
Summertime would be wonderful–I believe that was the one with size 4′s…thanks for the opportunity, MJ!
Matilda Jane means happiness, uniqueness, sweetness, and perfection. What a gorgeous blend!
It’s hard to choose just one…maybe sweetshop?
Matilda Jane means…love at first sight, I-can’t-live-without-it outfits, colors and patterns so curious you wonder and wish ‘why couldn’t I think of that?’. Matilda Jane means smiles from my daughter who loves her soft clothes and smiles from mama who loves pretty fabric.
We are interested in Sweetshop size 6 or Sweetshop size 2 for baby sister! Thank you!
I love Matilda Jane because it puts a huge smile on my baby girls face every time she wears it. She proudly says this is my “Tamilda Jane, see?” The prints,patterns,people, and philanthropy Matilda Jane embodies makes this company one in which I am proud to tell everyone about. Just ask my hubby and kids the history behind this company, they can tell you. I believe in you all and your philosophy as much as I adore the ruffles and knot dresses, Matilda Jane for President 2012!!!
P.S. Summertime
What Matilda Jane means to me is pure, sweet, girly fun. I love the way my daughter looks in her Matilda Jane. I love the commitment and the loyalty of everyone at 435. How you put such a personal touch to this brand and fearlessly open yourselves up to all the good and bad that comes along with that. Thank you. Summertime for us
My favorite thing about MJ is it is PERFECT for children. It’s so cute, whimsical, and fun. It is not a trend, but classic styling with fun personality. (perfect for mommies too!) I would like the summertime display please (or explore) thank you!
Because we LOVE MJ. I love to sew… I love new ideas. I adore your work. Because I have 2 daughters! Because I adore my husband who works harder than ever in our United States Air Force. AND because we’re heading overseas for good ole Uncle Sam and I wanna strut some MJ stuff in the very fashionable United Kingdom. Who knows – maybe you’ll grant me a trunk show possibility!
If it is not too late here goes! MJ gives my girls their special pretties as they say during a time when our family is struggling with many challenges. It is great to see the smile on their faces when someone stops to compliment them and they show off their outfits twirling around. Their brother even picks his shirt out to coordinate with the girls and help share in their excitement for that special “pretty” that they picked out to wear that day. Thanks for being our one splurge and only unique attire to allow each of my kids to bring out their own personality and character!
The sweet shop sizing would work great for us, thank you!
Matilda Jane is innocent, girlie and sweet. Comforty and beautiful clothing for our little girls. Something they love to wear and we love even more to see them in!
Matilda Jane means a little less chaos in a pretty chaotic life. Mornings full of “I can’t find it,” “I spilled the orange juice,” and the “baby took off his diaper again” become that much easier by the ability to grab Matilda Jane pieces that inevitably, when combined, make an adorable outfit. The stress of weighty decision of “what to wear for school pictures” has been eliminated (right along with the fear of the “you made me wear THIS” confrontation in 10 years) since Matilda Jane has come in to our lives. And finally, arguably most importantly, the challenge of both fulfilling my desire for gorgeous little girl outfits and satisfying her tomboy-rumble-tumble demands has been completely met. No more grimaces–hers are gone because so are the uncomfortable, frilly dresses of our pre-Matilda Jane era, and mine are now gone even when she is (adorably) upside down on the monkey bars!

And finally, arguably most importantly, the challenge of both fulfilling my desire for gorgeous little girl outfits and satisfying her tomboy-rumble-tumble demands has been completely met. No more grimaces–hers are gone because so are the uncomfortable, frilly dresses of our pre-Matilda Jane era, and mine are now gone even when she is (adorably) upside down on the monkey bars!
[My apologies--re-posting as I forgot to include a dispaly selection in the original comment. We'd be thrilled with any of the displays, but would have a preference for Summertime or Sweetshop as we're a bit small for size 8s

Matilda Jane is simply unique, vintage, beauty, sweetness and everything I see in my little Ava!!

It’s hard to put into words what Matilda Jane means to me!!, but I guess everytime she comes down the stairs with a MJ outfit on (even if she does have a hockey jersey on with it), I am always running to get my camera!! So I guess it would be the smile on my daughter’s face, glitter in her eye, the perfect twirl or the “look at me” walk she does across the room to get her dad’s attention. All in all….MJ means, seeing the extra happiness and joy in my daughter’s life.
Sorry, forgot to add it in…Sweet Shop or Explore please!!
What Matilda Jane means to me … M-Moms A-Always T-Triumph
I-in L-Love D-Dance A-and J-Justify N-Numerous E-Ensembles!
oh – and I like the Explore – doesn’t matter if I can’t see what it is – everything is always perfect!
It is a gift that I can give my daughter that makes her shine with happiness, and the gift to me is her thankfulness and the many compliments she receives. The fabrics and details of each piece is exquisite, you just can’t help but love this clothing. We would love the sweetshop or summertime. I have two girls, one is a size two and one can wear either four or six. Thanks again MJ!
For me Matilda Jane clothing is the clothes that I wish I could have worn as a child. My daughters look at themselves in the mirror and you can tell that what they’re are wearing makes them feel happy and confident. They start spinning around…and usually I start to spin too! Summertime or Sweetshop would make us SPIN!!
Letting my daughters look fun and colorful, like their personalities, and original at the same time. Plus the outfits photograph so well and that so important to me since they grow up so fast. Summertime is my pick!
Matilda Jane=an avenue to channel a little bit of my sweet daughter’s inner beauty outwardly. So many clothes for children try to make them look older or younger–Matilda Jane makes her looks like herself, which is layered, special, classic, unapologetic, whimsical, unique, and of course…………………………………………..unpredictable!!! (Summertime or Sweet shop)
Matilda Jane means so many things to me…but most of all it means hearing my 2 year old tell me I want to wear my bootiful dress. She has worn the same Matilda Jane dress atleast three times a week the whole summer! I plan to save the dress, seeing as she has almost outgrown it, to remind me and her of our Matilda Jane obsession and that bootiful dress she loved!!!!
What Matilda Jane means to me is the innocence and beauty that every girl is made of. Clothes that make a girl and her mommy proud and confident to show off her spirit and beauty. Clothes that are soft, comfortable, well constructed, thought out and designed with style and uniqueness, they take a girl from exploring in a flower field to sunday brunch, to her first high tea with grandma, she is ready for whatever the world brings her.I love that I can let my daughter pick out her own outfit and because of the style, I know that what ever pieces she picks will look great together! The quality and uniqueness makes me excited to find such a gem of a company, and to know that we can grow together in style and loveliness.
Oops… Forgot to say Id love the summertime display because of the sizes, but id take any display because we will still be wearing MJ when she is in the bigger sizes.
Matilda Jane is one big package of all the creativity I have been lacking since my good ol college days! Since then, it seems like life (jobs, commitments, deadlines, etc, etc) has taken over, and my dreams of being an artist have been sidelined. You gals and these clothes give me (and my daughter of course) so much joy and fill an artistic void I have been missing for years. It is pure sunshine!! (Explore or sweetshop)
Matilda Jane means that I can dress my daughter in cute clothes that are age appropriate and she can feel good about herself. They make her feel her age and she loves to twirl in them. You can see her face light up when she wears her Matilda Jane. Thank you.
Matilda Jane means beautiful smiles and giggles, laughter and fun. It means being unique and beautiful all at the same time. It brings out my daughters personality with just the twirl of a dress, the fastening of a button, the tying of a knot
Matilda Jane has not only given me beautiful pictures, but memories to cherish for a lifetime.
Forgot to add interested in Summertime
what it means to be a girl is MJC. THe wonderment, the joy, creativity, self expression. MJC is loving yourself for those quirky differences that set us each apart. And loving the world, exploring each day with a smile.
summertime please to go with Alina’s comment:) Love these darling clothes!!! Thanks for the opportunity!
Matilda Jane means special to my daughters and I. It’s too bad that such a common word best sums up such an uncommon, unique brand, but it really is special. Special in the concept, special in the company, special in the design, special in the process, special in the wearing. Most important of all, it makes my girls feel special. Although my 6 year old says “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” is a better word for it than special, so maybe I should go with that.
We would like sweetshop or explore. Thanks!
For me, Matilda Jane started as a unique, attractive and girly way to dress my daughters. Finally clothing was fun, not a struggle and appropriate for their ages, plus it was very easy for my husband to successfully dress them! Since I found Matilda Jane, I have met so many sweet and supportive women from all over the US (and world – Canada and Japan, represent!) who have become dear friends. Denise is sometimes misunderstood, but I believe she has a huge heart, incredible work ethic, good taste in people and an amazing eye for fashion. It is because of her vision MJC has made a name for itself in the world of designer clothing, and it is because of her character I feel I too could call her a friend. (being we live in Minnesota, where it is cold most of the year, I would LOVE Summertime!)
Matilda Jane is a tight knit “family” of Rock Stars that pull their creative juices together and consistantly top the charts every season. They aim to please their fans with their generosity through such things as contests, give aways, fundraisers, Random Acts of Kindness, etc…not to mention the back stage passes they give away for 435 (Pre-Party & Post Party). Matilda Jane clothing is comfy, yet stylish…uniquely beautiful clothing that protrudes a girl’s self confidence; therefore MJ fills our closets and keeps us smiling season after season. Thanks so much for all of the great opportunities! Explore would suit us best, however, all of the displays were simply amazing!
What does MJC mean to me…Hope and inspiration. Last year, as a first grader my daughter came home stating she wanted to be a “fashion designer” when she grows up. I thought of all the snooty, snobby designers that are in the news on TV…then… I thought of companies like yours. Why wouldn’t I want to encourage her to expand her creativity, work with her best friends, and make little girls and momma’s smile everyday? That’s the kind of job I hope for her….the kind of job that the girls at 435 make it seem like isn’t one.
Matilda jane means to me and my daughter: A way to express the innocence of a little girl who can twirl and spin around as she looks in the mirror with a great big grin! The ruffles and prints expressing what it is be young, pretty, and unique…. (our choice: Explore)
Matilda Jane…most are probably posting about how their daughter is always dressed adorably and that your designs are so awesome and unique (which they are!) and the whole compliments for their girl thing. I just had my third (and last!) baby 11 weeks ago and I have to say that Matilda Jane has been my reason for getting up and working through the “baby blues”. When I slip on the Shades of Gray tank or Whipowillow with my Lora Pants or my “I’m with the Band” tank with my Myrtles it gives me a sense that I too, even in my jelly belly state, can be adorable and cute. I just discovered Matilda Jane this Spring and have never been so completely in love with a clothing line and I have worked in retail clothing for over 10 years! Thank you and keep on keeping on!
“Tilda Jane” as its known in our house brings happiness to my 2 girls. and nothing makes me happier than seeing my girls happy. sweetshop would suit us best
Of course I love Matilda Jane because the clothing is unique, beautiful, and fun to wear but also because it reperesents a woman following her passion. I love the history of MJ as I too chose the pass less traveled in order to follow a dream and have also found much happiness as a result. I can only hope that my children are fortunate enough to follow their dreams as they journey in to adulthood. Until then, they will play and dream those dreams in their favorite twirly Matilda Jane dress.
I also forgot! sweetshop or summertime
To me, Matilda Jane is a smile on my child’s face. The fabrics are not only the most adorable I’ve seen, but also the softest, easiest to wear. Matilda Jane is the string that still connects me to a woman who was like a sister to me, but I no longer get to see face to face. Matilda Jane is the fire that rekindled the friendship of two high school friends. Thank you for keeping these two wonderful ladies close to my heart.
MJ lets girls be girls. Vintage, unique classy and adorable. My oldest is 10 and loves to be unique. MJ gives her that and so much more. She recently took 1st place in a photo competition in her beautiful MJ outfits. No one else was wearing them and she was thrilled to stand out as unique and age appropriate. Short shorts neon and tulle is not her thing. MJ all the way!
I forgot to mention that sweetshop and summertime would fit us now, but we’d be happy to grow into the explore.
WMJM2ME- i never get the fuzzies about any other clothing that I buy for my girls like i do w/ MJ. its b/c its so inspiring and brilliant…much like my girls. i love why MJ was born and love that MJ is more like a family than a company. thats what matters the most anyway. who would i rather buy from- a genius designer that makes her employees feel like family or a company that is motivated by only money?!?! I’d LOVE the Sweet Shop display!!!!
I have been dressing my gal in MJ since the beginning. I love how we can still coordinate outfits together – the quality & style is just unsurpassed. Cant wait to see what Fall has in store! Interested in Summertime.
Matilda Jane means to me…creativity, strength, girl-power, youth, celebration, fabulous flowy fun!
Someone once described my style as “Ugly Betty” – the TV Show – but that is before I knew of Matilda Jane Clothing…. a.k.a. as Piper says “Tilda Jane”! The comments I receive when wearing the Adult pieces are amazing – “where did you get that?” “Oh my – I love your outfit – who is Matilda Jane?”; “I adore your bag!” To ME – she is the clothing Fairy Godmother of Funky downright AWESOME clothing!!! Also Matilda Jane is the Queen of Family and helping others in very Unique and Special ways….and family is everything – as I am one of 5 siblings and without Family – where would we be? Thank you Matilda Jane…. YOU ROCK 435!! Summertime and Sweetshop
My daughter twirls and spins in front of the mirror with a great big grin! The ruffles and prints are pure innocence, pretty, and unique….. made for the heart of a little girl! (our choice: Explore)
WOW is what I can say about Matilda Jane…I see my daughters eyes light up everytime she opens one of the boxes come in…and says “is this for me?” and I say “of course it is sweetie”….
What I like most about MJ is the giving spirit, the warm reception and statement making…And, at the age of 3, my child has already named her doll, Matilda Jane! Love it all…
And would love the Summertime package
Matilda Jane means wearing beautiful clothing which allows each unique girls’ personality to shine and confidence to flourish. It is a magical clothing line perfect for all occasion, fun, fancy, sweet, and sassy. The colors, the fabrics, the styles compliment all shapes, sizes, and ethnicity. The Matilda Jane Clothing line exudes life, energy, vibrancy, happiness, and fun! (sweetshop)
It is Unique & Beautiful. It is Playful & Innocent. It is Light & Care Free Spirits. It is Happy & Refreshing. It is Art.
I love how it makes me feel when I see my girls wearing it. I am so happy to see them dressed as little girls. Sweetshop is my favorite:)
Everything looks so beautiful – you girls did an amazing job.
The funny thing about Matilda Jane is it’s not all about the clothes. The clothes are just icing on the cake. The people, friendships, generosity, and love I have experienced with Matilda Jane make it more than just a clothing company to me! From my first traveling trunk show when it wasn’t even in Utah until now when my favorites sell out in the blink of an eye;) I have always LOVED Matilda Jane!
sweetshoppe and summertime sound splendid to me and my sweet Ella Kate!
I like MJ because I believe a little girl should look like a little girl. Too Many stores sell girls clothing that are too mature for them. Things that a mom would wear. You keep my girl little and fun and sassy. Thanks so much. My choice would be Explorer. My lil girl is a size 8.
Matilda Jane rocks beceause it is full of amazing details and colors that make girls and their mommy’s happy! Just like a book, the MJ clothes take you to another place where anything your imagination can come up with could happen. It turns an ordinary day into an extraordinary one just by getting dressed.
* Would love the summertime display!
For me, MJ is more then the unexpected, it is a mystery, Like a big secret. My girlfriend introduced me to your sweet clothes for my 14 mo old and after years of dressing a little boy, I am delightfully hooked. But as I said it is all a mystery, waiting for the reveal of the new line, hoping to get your order in fast enough, trying to follow the blog, figure out the jane specials/platinum line/art fair…its like a secret society for adorable clothing for girls. Just perfect for a person like me whos favorite hobby is shopping for the sweetest outfits for my baby (without looking like everyone else). I am excited to be a part of the adventure. I am sure I would love the sweet shop…or anything.
I love Matilda Jane because it is so unique. You can always spot an MJ girl in a crowd! The flowery mix-and-match style is perfect for my two youngest daughters, who also adore your clothes. I would be thrilled with anything, but especially Explore or Sweetshop.
