I'm not usually the first on the Ch*****as preparations, but this year I would like to do something special. A few weeks ago, I took the eldest 2 to watch Beauty and the Beast, and they came out enchanted with Belle.
Because we go away on holiday over Ch*****as, I always have and Early Ch*****as dinner party at my house, about a fortnight before. I always get the girls (3 beauties) an outfit, and last year it was Santa's elves, but this year I was thinking something a bit more grown up - the eldest is 7, middle (Lilya) is 4, and the youngest 2 (Theo can be an elf, or a Hungry Caterpillar!).
So, with this in mind - speak if you think it's mad - I'm going for 3 Belle dresses - the beautiful yellow one. I've just ordered the pattern from Marina Brumpton, which gives me all the sizes.
I have some beautiful yellow lycra (not shiny) lovely fine stretch lining and some bling, but I need to buy soft sparkly tulle, and yellow net.
I'm hoping I've left enough time!
