This year in anticipation that Gillian would want to be Elsa or Anna from Frozen for Halloween, I encouraged her to be Zarina the Pirate Fairy from Tinkerbell. She loved that idea and desperately wanted to be Zarina. Well I hesitated and didn’t buy the costume right away. Big mistake. I went to my local Disney store. They didn’t have it, but they kindly told me when shipments came in. And I called them religiously (well all the stores in the state). I ended up finding the costume on eBay and paying more than I like to admit. Once I made the purchase I regretted it. Maybe I should have just let her be Esla. All my doubts went away when the costume arrived. She loved it and it looked awesome on her.
I went to Gillian’s parade at school yesterday and one of her teachers said “Her costume is perfect for her.” And she was right. Gillian is pretty, sparkly and a little fiesty. The perfect pirate fairy.
