When photographer Catherine Clay‘s daughter, Annabelle, turned five, her party was all style and sophistication with the perfect amount of girlish charm that made it age appropriate. I think the whole world knows I’m a sucker for chevron/zig zag prints, especially if they’re black and white, but add in a second version that is a pink and white color way? I’m overwhelmed (and I may have had a minor heart attack when I saw the chevron cake)! Of course, the adorable doesn’t stop there – enjoy!
