“I have to wear a plain, white dress? I do not like white dresses ” is a common complaint we hear often from girls participating in special events requiring only white attire. White dresses are most popular, most traditional, and most appropriate for many of life’s important celebrations: weddings, flower girl dresses, christenings, presentations, performances, cotillions, graduations, and recitals. White dresses in the world of special events for girls are about on par with the little black dress for adult ladies. A white dress is a near essential wardrobe piece for most little girls.A problem with white dresses, is that the most popular colors among little girls are pink, purple, green, blue, and often yellow. A fancy dress in one of these colors is most preferable to most young ladies. White dresses simply are not a favorite.So, what to do?

Have her recall the fairytales and stories of wonder that emphasize the beauty of white. Think of Snow White, magical white unicorns, and that many queens attend coronations and are crowned wearing dresses. Looking through a few story books will probably show some lovely illustrated examples.When out shopping for dresses, or when lookingNew Fake Cartier Watches online, consider styles that offer color option sashes and other accents.
