If your dressing more then one little Princess the Eternal Creation range offers ample opportunity for organising their outfits to complement one another. Each fabric in the range comes in more then one style of dress allowing you to match fabrics but choose a style that best suits the age and personality of the individual child. The Violetta dress sports an exquisite magenta patterned fabric enhanced by block coloured waistband and hem. The same colours and fabric are found in the ViolettaGemma, which features a flared skirt, a ruffled trim and neatly tied sash about the waist. There are also matching hairclips available for the Violetta designs.

The same opportunity for matching sisters exists with the Eternal Creation red polka dot Party dresses.

 

Eternal Creation bibs are highly recommended, not only for use with their co-coordinating sister products in the range but for everyday wear. Double the thickness of your average bib they offer your daughters clothes and skin an added level of protection. Eternal creation bibs are also beautiful in their own right so you needn’t feel frustrated covering up a sweet outfit. We’ve welcomed the Eternal Creation Miriam bib to Pretty Princess. Lined with pink piping and dotted with sweet rosy flowers this bib will complement any little princesses outfit even while it protects it.

Miriam Bib

The Miriam bib is cut from the same fabric as the Miriamplaysuit. Eternal Creation playsuits are ideal for the active baby who finds it difficult to navigate a dress. Pretty enough for a wedding or church service and practical enough for a day at play.  The Miriam range also includes the Dress for older girls.

Eternal Creation is one of the few companies we source boys clothes from- because they are absolutely irresistible. If you’re shopping for a little Prince you’ll love the Eternal Creation Marine Stripe Playsuit. This little overall style outfit screams summer by the seaside. Cool and easy to play in the suit has a little pocket at the chest (perfect for collecting seashells) and snap buttons for easy nappy change.

Meet Alicia

Spring is in sight, and with only two weeks of winter to go some Pretty Princess loyalists recently gathered for an extra special sneak preview of some the Spring range. The new stock won’t be available to view on the website until the end of August but here’s a little preview of what you can expect to see.

As winter fades away Bebe by Minihaha has introduced us to their new ‘Alicia’ range. You can expect light cottons in clean whites and pastels, ruffled fabrics, lace trims and sweet floral patterns alongside neat pretty-in-pink pinstripes.

The Bebe ‘Alicia’ Striped Dress, adorned with the beautifully embroidered hot air balloon speaks of icecream, longer days and beachside holidays. The entire range screams spring and summer fun. The light airy fabric used throughout the ‘Alicia’ range will keep your little princess cool and comfortable while she enjoys the sun.

While the days are certainly getting sunnier that nip in the air isn’t going anywhere just yet, evenings out in the spring air call for light cardigans to keep chilly breezes off little arms. The Bebe Swing Cardi in a crisp white will match any spring dress beautifully and is just the right thickness for that in-between weather as we emerge from winter.

Light cotton bodysuits are the staple item of a warm weather wardrobe for the baby-toddler age range. These practical little pieces don’t have to be boring. Smocking and adorably frilled sleeves make the Bebe ‘Alicia’ Frill bodysuit perfect for special occasions as well as everyday wear. Lightweight and easy to move around in, the bodysuit also has easy nappy change fasteners so it’s just as practical as a plain romper.

We’ve all been so enchanted by ‘Alicia’, and there is so much more of this special range to be revealed at the end of the month. Check back so that you too can get acquainted with this Springs’ must-have Princess wear.

Flower Girls

Flower girls make the sweetest addition to a wedding. No one can help but smile at an adorable little Princess as she heads down the aisle in front of the bride. Traditionally flower girls and pageboys represented good luck and fertility for the couple’s future. Today choosing a flower girl is a special way to include a child special to the couple in the wedding and is also a special honour and expression of love for the child’s family.


It’s important that decisions regarding child attendants are made early on so that parents have the opportunity to prepare them for their role. Flower girls should be between the ages of 3-7. An 8 year old can have the title of junior bridesmaid and any younger than 3 and the little princess is just as likely to freeze rather than smile down the aisle!

It is most appropriate to choose a child from the family or a godchild of the couple over friend’s children. However if you have a special child in mind and feel you may need to provide special roles for a number of other children as well consider appointing some child ushers or depending on age and ability have them hand out programs, or packets of rice or confetti for the end of the ceremony.

Luna Luna Xanadu Dress looks beautiful on any little Flower Girl

The Bride should choose the dress however it is the flower girls parents who are responsible for purchasing it, along with shoes and other accessories. The decision should be made in conjunction with the Flower Girls mum who will foresee any potential problems (e.g. a Flower Girl who refuses to wear a certain colour or finds a certain design or fabric itchy). It is best to pick out a very special dress that could be worn again for other celebrations.

One of the fun things about Flower Girls is their dresses need not match the rest of the bridal party- you may choose a dress in line with the colour theme of your wedding or go for a classic white, ivory or powder pink. Pretty Princess has some very special dresses available just perfect for Flower Girl duty. We also offer free postage for orders over $150!

Luna Luna Glitterati Dress

Ensure the entire outfit is organized well before the day, it will help the Flower Girl’s confidence if she can get dressed up: dress, shoes and all- to practice ‘the walk’ up and down her hallway.

Little Leona Princess Pleat Dress

Just like the Bridesmaids the Flower Girl should receive a little gift from the bride on the day. A piece of jewelry to wear on the day is a lovely choice or alternatively consider choosing something that will not only be treasured but will also keep the little princess entertained at the reception? A special doll like our Alimrose Designs LolaDoll, or perhaps a Fiesta Crafts Royalty Finger Puppet Set- she will already be feeling like a real live Princess on the big day so will probably be keen to play royalty at the reception!


On the Big Day ensure there are extra pins, comb and hairspray available for any last minute hair fixes on fidgety and playful princesses! It is best to leave the dress until the very last minute to guard against accidental spillages or scuffs. Remember that a bored Princess won’t make for an enthusiastic Flower Girl- make sure that she has plenty of ‘clean’ activities to keep her occupied in the lead up to the big moment- puzzles are ideal, steer clear of texta’s and crayons and stick to pencils for any colouring in to ensure clean hands and a safe dress!

Remember that no matter how the Flower Girl comes down the aisle- smiling or not, walking the whole way or carried some of it- all your guests will find her little personality absolutely precious.

Princess Baby Showers

Gone are the days when every baby shower invitation was yellow and the gifts came in an assortment of pale yellows, greens or whites. Thanks to ultrasound technology we’re often blessed to know whether it’s a little prince or princess that the mum-to-be is anticipating. If Mum is lucky enough to be welcoming a little Princess then why not crown Mum-to-Be Queen for the day and throw a divine Princess themed Baby Shower! 

Thanks to modern technology, many mums know the gender of bub before they arrive.

The popularity of princess themed birthday parties makes it impossibly easy to source a bounty of pink party supplies. Balloons, streamers, tablecloths all in pink will set the scene.

Use Google Images to discover thousands of pictures of princesses both real and imaginary- pop into some cheap frames and decorate the table and room with royalty. Maybe see if you can dig up a childhood picture of the Mum dressed up as a Princess!

Put a spin on the usual baby shower trivia and make it Princess trivia! Who knows Sleeping Beauty’s first name? Name the children of Princess Mary of Denmark? Who wrote the book ‘A Little Princess’? etc. The possibilities are endless!

Food can be tied easily into the theme- dye a dip with just a couple of drops of red food coloring- voila! Pink princess dip!  Drink pink lemonade from champagne glasses and provide bowls of pink sweets. There are literally thousands of possibilities for a Princess cake- here’s a charming option from the cupcake blog-

Pretty Princess Parties!

After a couple oftrial runs the Pretty Princess Party Plan is perfected and now open to the public!  

Holding a Pretty Princess Party is like having an exclusive boutique in your very own home. Hosts can request any items they (or their guests!) are particularly interested in seeing. If you’ve had your eye on something in particular a party is your opportunity to see it up close before you make your decision- it may even make that special item a bit cheaper!

Hosts receive a voucher for 10% of the value of all purchases from their party- if your guests spend $500 between them that equals a $50 voucher for you! To celebrate the introduction of the parties Pretty Princess is also offering an additional gift to hostesses who book a party before June 30^th (to be held by October 31^st)- a $20 voucher to be used at the party!

Exclusive specials are offered at each party so your guests will be getting a great deal as well- as a matter of fact, Pretty Princess would hate for anyone to miss out- so if one of your intended guests can’t make it on the day they can still place an order to be counted with the rest of the party and with the same deals applicable!

To make it really easy to get the word out to your guests Pretty Princess will provide you with postcard style invites for you to give to your guests as well as creating a Facebook event page for your party.

What does the host need to do? Organise the date, time and place; invite guests; and prepare any refreshments. Party orders will be packed and delivered within two weeks (unless an item needs to be ordered in). The first step to hosting your party is to fill in the request form- remember book before June 30^th to receive your $20 party voucher!
