Put Your Princess in a Pettiskirt
Date: Monday November 2, 2009Posted in: Colors, Customer Service, Easter, Flower Girl Dresses, Head Accessories, Uncategorized, Weddings
Who said pettiskirts were only made to wear under a dress? Now a days it looks like a hot trend is wearing a pettiskirt as a fun every day wear skirt. Not only are they fun and colorful but very practical. They come in various colors and you can dress it up or down. They’re not just for infants or toddlers. Young woman are wearing them under Homecoming dresses for extra volume and a more colorful look.
I have to admit when I first saw them, I wasn’t THE biggest fan. Once you see them on and with the right flower girl accessories, they don’t look bad. I’ve seen girls wear them with black tights and heels and it looks fun and comfortable. Toddlers look adorable in them. It’s an every day “princess outfit” for them. They’re great for dressing up a regular t-shirt or to wear and twirl in for ballet class.
They’re fun, easy to maintain, and practical. There’s no need to take it to the dry cleaners or go thru the hassle of ironing it. They’re hand washable and the more crinkled it gets, the fuller it looks. Majority come based on age so you don’t have to worry about taking any type of measurements, and with an elastic waist, they’ll have enough room to grow into. They’re mainly made of floating chiffon and ruffles that go on forever. Some of them even come with a ribbon at the waist for extra detail. They come in various colors and styles. They even have a full body petticoat dress like our style SP554, just in case you can’t find a shirt, this one already has it attached to the skirt.
Many brides are starting to use them as flower girl dresses because there’s no need to add a petticoat like you would to a “regular” flower girl dress. They’re easier to mix and match with the bridal parties colors, or you can get one with petals already inside the skirt, like our style SP110 on pinkprincess.com.
They make great gifts for girls of all ages or for your own princess to wear in any occasion. You’re sure to find the color/colors you’re looking for. Pettiskirts are all about having fun, and with 40 yards of fluffy chiffon, you can be assured you’re princess will have the time of her life twirling and playing in hers.

Save Your Sanity! Shop the Internet for Your Child’s Holiday Dress
Date: Monday December 3, 2007Posted in: Uncategorized
You know that feeling you get when you’re about to step on the scale at the doctor’s office? You know… that feeling of dread? I felt it wash over me just after Thanksgiving. I stood in my kitchen, stared out the window, and thought about all of the parties and portraits that lay ahead in December. Yikes! What would my kids wear? It was time take the girls shopping for their Christmas party dresses.
Now, it’s not the shopping per se that sends me into a panic. It’s the thought of shopping with my two children. Kate is four and Hayden is one. Going anywhere, let alone to a kids clothing store, is a disastrous production. But I really couldn’t head into the holidays without knowing that at least two fancy dresses were hanging in each of their closets. Kate, my toddler, is all frills. Put her in bows, taffeta, or a flowing flower girl dress and she’s happy as a clam. As for Hayden? Well, she wears what I pick out for her. Last Christmas I choose something functional. This year I want her to shine in her first real Christmas party dress.
I put on my game face and dragged the kids to the mall. I scoured the racks, taking inventory of the Christmas clothes in all the children’s stores. Everything was picked over from the post-Thanksgiving crowd. I didn’t like a thing. The Santa dresses were silly and those long sweater dresses were cute, but probably more appropriate for older children. I was looking for young frilly, fancy dresses but in subdued holiday colors. No bright reds or greens for me. No way!
Three hours later, I had had enough of pushing and shoving my way through the mall. I went home to do what every other civilized person does the week after Thanksgiving. Hit the internet.
With my children in bed, I used the quiet time to Google “toddler girl clothing.” As expected a lot of bargain online retailers popped up, then some department stores and boutiques. So many choices! I browsed all of the Christmas clothes at the major stores and decided I would be paying too much for a similar holiday dress I could find somewhere else. Then I remembered Pink Princess. My mom had heard that this was the place to shop for party dresses, great and small. I hit their home page at PinkPrincess.com and struck gold. Within minutes I had purchased matching frosted pink and blue taffeta dresses. Then I splurged and bought matching two-toned velvet-taffeta dresses in sage and silver. The bows on these dresses were just too adorable. My girls were set! The dresses arrived less than a week later, just in time for their first soiree.
Today, I breathe a sigh of relief. As my girls twirl around in their new fancy dresses, I can finally start concentrating on something a little more meaningful… like shopping for myself!
