Pirate Girl

This past weekend, Sadie's friend had a pirate birthday party. Pirate costumes were optional (pirate gear would be provided at the party) and Sadie didn't express much interest in a pirate costume until the day of the party. However, with the party approaching rapidly, she decided she did want to wear pirate clothes.

Luckily, we have lots of dress-up gear and were able to rig together a Pirate Girl/Pirate Princess type outfit.

Outfit components:
black t-shirt and tights
2 tutus (I picked the ones that were ripped for a tattered pirate look)
sleeve puffs from Sleeping Beauty costume
lots of dress-up box necklaces
Mommy's brocade belt
Mommy's scarf as pirate headdress
Rainboots

Sadie was delighted, the costume got lots of attention at the party and the party was super fun!

Although Sadie did look adorable, what I remember best was how much fun you and she had getting this outfit together. There was real love and care. I heard Sadie say, "I love you Mommy" at least two or three times. Thanks for sharing these lovely moments with us. Lots of love, Grandma and Grandpa PS Happy Halloween to all 4 of you! Have fun!
