Party Time!

Who loves to shop in the comfort of their own home? I know I do! So here at Pretty Princess we would like to introduce Pretty Princess Parties. Think Tupperware Party but with products from Pretty Princess. At this stage, while my little Princess still needs me to feed every few hours, we are still trialing parties with family and friends, but are hoping to introduce them to the wider public later this year.

I recently held a party with some friends and family, and my beautiful and talented friend, Emily, was kind enough to write about her experience...

Clothes ready to be viewed.


Emma is a dear friend of mine, and our two little Princes’ are the most charming of friends. I also have two little Princesses so have, of course, delighted in Emma’s new endeavor with Pretty Princess! I’ve really enjoyed browsing the website and picking out favorites but it was something entirely new and special when I recently attended Emma’s very first Pretty Princess Party.

Emma’s lounge room was transformed to the most beautiful personal boutique. Charming mobiles hung from the fan and the walls were lined with racks of clothes and tables laden with all manner of precious things. Not to mention the table of chocolates, cheeses and cupcakes!


Toys and accessories laid out for viewing

Once we had all arrived we played an icebreaker game, scoring points for the different items we had in our handbags. Never before have I actually wished I were carrying the baby bag. With a cleared out handbag I lost dismally but plenty of laughs were had in the process!

Drinks and catalogues in hand we listened to Emma’s presentation featuring a few of the outfits available. There were a few extra special standouts marked by a chorus of oohs and aahs!

My wish list filled pretty quickly so it was good to have the opportunity to look at and compare the clothes up close after the presentation. The fabrics were luscious and every stitch exquisite. I’d had my eye on an Eternal Creation outfit on the website for a while and having seen it in the flesh it made it to my purchase list immediately! I also bought a Little Leona dress at the party which is made of the lightest of fabrics, with possibly the most stunning embroidery I’ve ever seen, yet I’d never noticed it on the website before!



Emily purchased this Little Leona dress for her daughter.

It was a good opportunity to really become familiar with some of the Pretty Princess Products I wasn’t completely familiar with such as toys and linens. I also hadn’t spent much time looking at the accessories online, but found lots of perfect little pieces to match my girls’ outfits.

There were some great bargains to be had at the party; some brands were heavily discounted across the board. I was so happy with everything I bought and felt like I got a great deal. I think the best thing about the party was… well the party! It is so nice to be in a room of mums, chatting and laughing- and what better circumstance then over a bit of private shopping!
