I bought a pair of new Welly for my Princesses - so they definitely needed a Boot Princess and a little rain! They were eager to try it on... but there is no rain, so they have to wait for a while. Not so much - after all, we are in England... :-)
This is every little girls' dream, isn't it? A long, beautiful white dress and an even longer veil. I know, there is not too much to colour in a white dress, but what can I say? My daughters loved to shade the little details -the boquet, the ribbon, the background and most of all, the bride's face and hair. They even coloured the dress with a white pencil - but I must admist, there is not much difference. Anyway, who cares? They see it, and just that counts!
My daughter learn about the antique Egyptians this year. So she had a lot of ideas about how a real women pharaoh shoul look like. Definitely with a lot of gold. That is understandable - she is not just a princess, but a living Godess.
This is my favourite epoche - the rococo. I love the big white wigs, the colourful materials and the generous size of the dresses. This is excatly how a princess should look alike. My daughter said, this must be all pink (with a lot of different shades) but it is not a must.
There is a strong connection between women and shoes - even the little girls know that. They just love to borrow my high heel shoes and I can do nothing against it. They adore to pretend to be like Mum. And you know, this is the nicest form of compliment. That is why they loved to colour and design their own princessy high heel shoes.
I always thought, that the robe of the ancient greeks was white. But actually I have checked a fashion history book, and turns out, there was a lot of colour in that times. Even the elegand, white temples were really colourful. Same with the tunics. So, use the whole rainbow, mainly the purple, the red, the blue and the green. Forget about picturing the boring, well-behaved nice white dresses - the life was much more colourful in that days!
If you think, there is nothing princessy in cooking, think it again. Since Nigella, every women would like to be a domestic godess. And she is rihgt: cooking can be fun. Especcially when you do cupcakes with a little bit of edible glitter. Have you ever tried it? That is awsome!
