It's my Party

Mini was in her element on Sunday, supported by big bro Phin and surrounded by friends she celebrated to the max with face painting, singing and trampolining. Party on!

Mini showcased her special birthday dress today. A crisp white embroidered Victorian dress, it was a gift on her birth from the fashion maven Virginia from her eponymous vintage fashion boutique Virginia's Antiques. I've been waiting the whole year for her to be able to wear such a magnificent creation, and her birthday seemed a worthy occasion. It has a simple underdress with lace trim and the over dress has an embroidered front panel with a v-shaped bodice, capped sleeves and the quilted and starched pelmet gives it a full skirted feel without the need for a petticoat. Princess perfection.

Natalie may have felt that by giving a pepto bismal pink trampoline for Mini's birthday gift, it a) wasn't chic enough and b)it would never make Mini's blog. Well chic it ain't. But boy its fun! Mini may only be twelve months old but she got the drift pretty quickly and held on for dear life as she hopped up and down with glee. And see, it made the blog albeit with an ultra chic outfit as its accompaniment.
