A "Belle" For a Day




Ivy received an invitation to her first dress-up Princess birthday party. Since she had recieved Belle for Christmas- her desire was to be Belle for the party! I was unsure how to pull off a Belle dress since I didn't have any dress-up clothes for her and I didn't want to buy one!














Luckily I remembered I had a beautiful yellow dress I had worn when I was 7 in my Aunt Melissa's wedding as a flower girl. I had to take in the dress a little- and I added some ruffly pleats on the front- but it was PERFECT.


Ivy was thrilled. See the regal pose? :D













She had TONS of fun hanging out with the other "princesses." Another girl was dressed up as Belle- so she and Ivy became fast friends!



It's times like these that I'm grateful for my ability to sew- and that my daughter can wear my dresses!
