Dancing Queen



My eldest daughter :L, is soon to finish junior school, this is a major turning point in her life and also for me. When she starts secondary school she will be a child and leave as a young adult, time just flys by. I intend to make every effort to savour and embrace these years, before my children disappear into the world of Independence. Anyhow, L has worked really hard at school this year, this was reinforced by a brilliant school report so I thought I would make her something nice for the last junior school disco.

L choose bright , yummy pink satin, and I had a Bit of A "Gok" moment and accessorised the dress with a nice clashing little clutch purse in bright red and lined the pouch with the same pink satin. l looks a bit like a mini Sarah J.P. with her glitzy party sandals to finish off her outfit; What a fashionista! Would of liked to take more photos of her, but she would of been late for the function of the year!
By the way , she is not frowning; just a serious pose!

A lot of her friends liked the dress and bag, so perhaps I could make something similar for my etsy shop.

Adorable daughter and dress! I have a son about that age and just sent him off to camp, looking so cool in his new sunglasses. Such a sweet age!

I think it's a great dress for that age. A little more grown up, but still innocent.

very sweet--and with a bit of sass! just like your daughter, no doubt! enjoy these years--they are quite wonderful even though you'll no doubt hear other opinions on that subject!
